This event follows on from the hint players were receiving Fallout Boy in Valentine's Day 2015. There will be three prize tracks in this event, like Halloween 2014. The event is split into four parts, theretically five with a "Crossover" planned. There is also crafting enabled at the Android's Dungeon, and Personal Prizes for each part. The event will end on March 31, 2015.

The premise of the event is Criminals invading Springfield. Part One of the event began on February 17, 2015 at 8am (GMT). Part Two will begin on February 22 at 8am, Part Three on March 10 at 8am, the "Crossover" starts on March 23 at 9am, Part Four begins March 24 at 8am, and the event ends March 31 at 8am.

The Dark Knight's Inception Pt. 4

After tapping on Bart's exclamation mark: Clues all point to a place that is Bartman's Kryptonite... the Springfield Library! Makes sense that this is my enemy's evil lair.

The Collider Pt. 1

After unlocking The Collider: I can't let Dr. Colossus know I'm really a double-agent working for the Superior Squad. Did you just say something devious out loud? Um... I... um... no. Just get back to work! We have a town to enslave! Task: Make The Collider Work as a Double Agent (4h, Death Mountain)

The Collider Pt. 2

After tapping on The Collider's exclamation mark: It seems that no matter how hard I try my evil plans backfire. Have you ever thought there might be a double agent in the facility? No, I've never thought that. That's a relief. But now that you bring it up, it makes perfect sense. Find this traitor and eliminate him!! Task: Make The Collider Pet Mr. Boson (24h) Did the mole surface yet? The mole has been eliminated. Now feel free to let down your guard and tell me all your secret plans. Good job, Collider. You make evil easy.

The Collider Pt. 3

After tapping on Dr. Colossus's exclamation mark: I've done it! I've created the ultimate doomsday weapon! Congratulations. What does it do? It makes everything taste like dry chicken. I call it the "Poult-Ray." He's removing the plump juiciness from life, like a bad backyard BBQ?! I must stop him! Task: Make The Collider Sabotage the Poult-ray (1h, Death Mountain) File:Explosion Icon.png ...

The Collider Pt. 4

After tapping on The Collider's exclamation mark: Ugh. I was too close to the "Poult-Ray" when it blew. *cough* My juices are running clear... I'm cooked to a crisp. *wheeze* Task: Make The Collider Die and Come Back in the Credits (8h) I'm alive! Protected by a layer of exploded chicken fat. And my skin... so soft and supple. This is terrible! The Poult-ray was destroyed! Collider? Is that you? You look 20 years younger. Good living, I guess. It's true. Evil living does add years to a villain's life. Let's head back to the lab and we'll start again. Sure thing, boss.
