Dialogue[edit]

|
|
Costas, I could use a tough, scary loan collector like you in my operation.
|
|
I find your little city disgusting.
|
|
It's an acquired taste, to be sure.
|
|
I am, above all, a man of principles — principles that will not allow me to work for you!
|
|
|
Fair enough. We shall remain mortal enemies. I will now stomp your foot. *stomps foot*
|
|
|
Oww! And I will poke your belly. *pokes belly*
|
|
*giggles*
|
|
|
I was hoping for a more painful outcome.
|

|
|
|
I've been the wind beneath the gangsters' wings whose books I have carried for years!
|
|
Why not carry my own book? Shark my own loans? Why deny what is so clearly my destiny any longer?
|
|
|
This is the path forward for Costas Becker!
|
|
When you are done talking to yourself, please decide on your candy: Red Lines or Strawberry Twizzors. I have customers waiting!
|
|
|
I'll take them both because I deserve it!
|
Task: "Make Costas Becker Try to Find Marks". The job takes 4 hours.
Task: "Make Apu Push Twizzors Sales". The job takes place at a Kwik-E-Mart or Brown House and takes 4 hours.

|
| After tapping on Costas Becker's exclamation mark
|
|
Costas, you know, at Devarsec, Inc., we're always looking for go-getters to work as debt collectors.
|
|
|
Is "Devarsec" a collection agency or a new prescription drug?
|
|
|
Technically both!
|
|
|
I must accept your offer, although collecting from the medically impaired sickens me.
|
|
|
If you're sick, Devarsec can help!
|
|
Side effects may include shortness of breath, dizziness, vomiting, bleeding, death...
|
|
|
I think I'll stay sick.
|
| Task: "Make Costas Becker Reluctantly Work for Corporate America". The job takes place at Office Towers, ZiffCorp Office Building, ZiffCorp Sign, or a Brown House and takes 4 hours.
|
|
Devarsec? Is that one of those un-American dog breeds?
|
|
No! Devarsec is the defenseman for the Springfield Ice-O-Topes.
|
|
|
Devarsec's a bum! We traded our goalie, Metamucil, for him!
|
|
|
Devarsec's a drug!
|
|
Oh, so you're a drug dealer!
|
|
|
Drug dealer? I better call Detective Devarsec!
|
|
|
I'm trapped in an existential nightmare.
|
|
Wait till you get to our age. It's all nightmares.
|
| Quest reward: 100 and 10
|
|
| After tapping on Costas Becker's exclamation mark
|
|
|
Costas Becker, you are the best debt collector we've ever hired. How do you do it?
|
|
|
People don't say "no" to me. At least, not if they're under eigthy and can understand simple hand gestures.
|
|
|
Well our Board of Directors would like to give you a plaque for outstanding performance! Yours is the little name under our names.
|
|
Wait, "Marion Anthony D'Amico"? Fat Tony is one of your board members?
|
|
|
I told you, you would end up working for me—
|
|
|
*stomps Fat Tony's foot and leaves*
|
|
|
That guy stomps really hard.
|
| Task: "Make Costas Becker Try to Find Marks Again". The job takes 4 hours.
|
|
|
What's the world coming to where no one borrows money from gangsters anymore?
|
|
|
We all just run up our credit cards.
|
|
|
It's intolerable! Now how will I pay my rent here in Springfield?
|
|
Go where there's always job openings 'cause everyone's always quitting...
|
| Quest reward: 100 and 10
|
|
| After tapping on Costas Becker's exclamation mark
|
|
Working at Krusty Burger is even more intolerable!
|
|
But at least you can pay your rent now.
|
|
Zip it, burger chuckers!
|
|
|
I have a name!
|
|
Not here you don't. Now take this order out to the tour bus.
