Pt. 1

|
|
Are you the catch of the day or can I reel you in for a closer look?
|
|
Miss Luann Van Houten, are you trying to seduce me?
|
|
Skipper Jack! How could you even suggest such a thing? I'm hurt, I tell you, hurt!
|
|
|
*touches Skipper Jack's bicep* Hurt!
|
|
I see right through you! And I'm totally game…
|
|
|
Oh, you are?
|
|
And let's not forget, Kirk won't be joining us on this adventure until the second quest. So, why don't we take advantage of this opportunity and do what we really want?
|
|
|
And what might that be?
|
Task: "Make Skipper Jack Take Luann Out". The job takes place at Marriage Counseling, Monroe Family Therapy Center, Walk-In Therapy Stand, an Eatery, or a Brown House and takes 4 hours.
If Luann is owned: Task: "Make Luann Accompany Skipper Jack in a Daze". The job takes place at Marriage Counseling, Monroe Family Therapy Center, Walk-In Therapy Stand, an Eatery, or a Brown House and takes 4 hours.
|
|
Wait. Where are we?
|
|
|
We're at my girlfriend's office — she's a couple's counselor.
|
|
|
What? What's going on? Is this some kind of open relationship thing you're in?
|
|
|
No. I thought since you're a married woman and you made some very clear and not subtle advances toward me that you and your husband, Kirk, could use some couple's counseling.
|
|
I don't need couple's counseling. What I need is a drink.
|
Quest reward:  100 and  10

Pt. 2
| After tapping on Skipper Jack's exclamation mark
|
|
Hey look! It's Skipper Hack! Have you seen my WIFE lately?
|
|
|
Uh. Are you trying to insinuate something?
|
|
|
As a matter of fact, I am! Captain Marriage Ruiner!
|
|
Uh… look. I can't talk right now. The day's catch won't sort itself. If you lend me a hand, we can get back to you accusing me of something I didn't do afterwards.
|
|
|
I'd pay you for your troubles.
|
|
Well, I'm only saying yes because I need the money. Afterwards we can discuss the fact that you're having an affair with my wife!
|
|
|
That is patently untrue, Kirk.
|
Task: "Make Skipper Jack Sort the Day's Catch". The job takes 4 hours.
If Kirk is owned: Task: "Make Kirk Help Sort the Day's Catch". The job takes place at The Rotting Pelican and takes 4 hours.
|
|
|
All right. The fish are sorted! Accuse away!
|
|
|
What were you doing with my wife?!
|
|
|
I took her to my girlfriend's office!
|
|
Ew! So it was an open marriage thing?!
|
|
|
No! She's a couple's counselor! I took Luann there because clearly you two have marital problems.
|
|
Duh! Captain Obvious!
|
|
|
It's SKIPPER Obvious.

|
|
So… should we set sail?
|
|
|
I guess so… pretty boring in Springfield…
|
|
I have a question for the skipper of this vessel.
|
|
That'd be me. What can I help you with?
|
|
|
I'm Milhouse Van Houten. I think you know my Mom and Dad.
|
|
|
Yes, I do.
|
|
|
Well, I just wanted to thank you for pointing my parents towards marriage counseling.
|
|
I think it's really making a difference.
|
|
|
Well, that's good to hear!
|
|
They're finally admitting the truth: that they need to get a divorce.
|
|
So, two Christmases from now on? Lucky you!

So…Mr. Skipper, sir… can I come with you guys on your sea adventure?
|
|
|
Hmmm, maybe. Do you know anything about sailing?

Oooh, jigging!

This kid's good.
|

Where'd you learn all these nautical terms?

Pt. 4
| After tapping on Skipper Jack's exclamation mark
|
|
|
Okay, Skipper. I have to know. What's all this been about with the Van Houten family?
|
|
|
Don't worry about it, Fausto. It's just me being bored at sea.
|
|
|
If you say so, Skipper.
|
|
|
You can get some rest, it'll be a few hours before we're back in port.
|
|
|
Aye, aye. *heads below deck*
|
|
|
Finally, some peace and quiet.
|
|
|
Time to see what's coming up next…
|
| Task: "Make Skipper Jack Read Script Notes". The job takes 4 hours.
|
|
|
Huh. The Christmas event this year is certainly different.
|
|
|
But I'm glad I kept my golf clubs, I'm looking forward to the summer event.
