Klaatu barada nikto!!

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

Sorry, I've just always wanted to do that to someone and this was probably the only chance I'd ever get.
Homer Are you a g-g-g-g-g-ghost?

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

What? No, I think we've had enough of those in this game already.

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

I'm your creator.
Homer So you're G-g-g-g-g-god?

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

No. I have a beard and walk around in a bathrobe a lot, but I'm not him either.

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

I'm the creator of The Simpsons.
Homer You mean Matt G-g-g-g-g-groaning?

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

It's pronounced GRAY-ning.
Homer Then maybe you should spell it that way.

When Worlds Collide Pt. 2

After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark:
Homer So why are you here, Mr...
Homer ...uh, can I just call you Matt?

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

No.

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

And I'm here because something wonderful is about to happen.

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

Worlds are about to collide!
Homer Like Earth is going to crash with Earth-2, annihilating us all?
Homer That does sound wonderful!

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

No, The Simpsons is going to crash with one of my other creations, Futurama... annihilating TV-viewer boredom!
Homer You mean a crossover episode?
Homer Ugh! Those things are always so awful.

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

Yes, they are full of awe.

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

And this will be the most awe-full crossover ever!

When Worlds Collide Pt. 3

After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark:
Homer O Great Creator of Everyone and Everything Around Us... if you can hear me, please answer my prayers.

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

I can hear you, Homer... now that you've stopped screaming. What is it you want?
Homer For you to get rid of that crossover episode. Futurama had a great run, but it's over now. Can't we just let it go in peace?

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

*sigh* I think I can fix things. But first I need you to build something for me.
Homer Of course, O great one! Is it an ark?
Homer Because if so, I need to know what exactly the difference is between an ark and a boat.

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

No. I need you to build something to bring me into your world.
Homer A super sciencey time portal?

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

No. I need a-
Homer A magic train to carry you here from your wizard school?

Template:Tapped Out Matt Groening (Phased) Icon

A WRITERS BUILDING! I'M A WRITER SO I NEED A WRITERS BUILDING, OKAY?
Homer Oh. That's disappointing.
Task: Build Writers Building
Homer Okay, I built the Writers Building.
Homer It's old and crappy and doesn't have nearly enough offices for a show this size.
Homer Also I built a fountain in front and put fish in it, even though it wasn't made for that and most of them will die.
Matt Groening It's perfect.

When Worlds Collide Pt. 4

After tapping on Matt Groening's exclamation mark:
Matt Groening This Springfield seems different than the one I remember.
Homer That's because I blew up the one you remember.
Homer This is a new Springfield, built from the ground up by a giant finger.
Matt Groening So this world was created with the help of others?
Homer Relax, Mr. Greening -- you still have "Created by" credit.
Matt Groening It's GRAY-ning.

All Hail the Creator!

After tapping on Matt Groening's exclamation mark:
Homer Now that you're back, Mr. GRAY-ning, can you use your writing powers to get rid of that crossover episode?
Matt Groening I'd love to, Homer. But first I need you to finish the Writers Building.
Homer I put super-cheap air conditioners in all the windows. What more do you need?
Matt Groening Snacks. Writers need energy...
Matt Groening ...the kind of energy you can only get from a cabinet full of candy and a refrigerator full of sodas.
Task: Make Homer Purchase Snacks for the Writers Building (24h)

When Worlds Collide Pt. 5

After tapping on Matt Groening's exclamation mark:
Homer Okay, the kitchen's stocked! And if we run out of anything, I'll go to the store and buy exactly the same stuff...
Homer ...so that after a few restockings we'll have extras of everything people don't like, but not enough of what they actually eat.
Matt Groening Great. But writers can't just live on snacks.
Matt Groening We need to be able to order lunch, so that when it comes we can stop working for an hour...
Matt Groening ...and often longer.
Homer Can't you just bring your lunch from home?
Matt Groening What? No. We have to order out so that we can wonder all morning when lunch is going to get there.
Matt Groening And then get mad if it doesn't arrive on time.
Matt Groening It's part of the creative process.
Task: Build Krusty Burger and Make Homer Get Menus From Local Restaurants (4h)

When Worlds Collide Pt. 6

After tapping on Matt Groening's exclamation mark:
Matt Groening Thanks for the menus, Homer.
Matt Groening I'm sure we'll be cycling through these same small number of restaurants for years.
Matt Groening Now all we need are some PA's to take our orders.
Homer But we don't have any PA's.
Homer Also, I have no idea what a PA is.
Matt Groening It's a production assistant.
Matt Groening Their job is to call in our lunch orders and pick up our food.
Homer Can't we just call it in ourselves? Most of these places deliver.
Matt Groening What is this, not Hollywood?
Matt Groening I'm sorry, Homer, but this is just the way things are done.
Task: Make Homer Hire PA's (6h)

When Worlds Collide Pt. 7

After tapping on Matt Groening's exclamation mark:
Matt Groening So Homer, did you get us PA's?
Homer Yep. I hired a bunch of recent college graduates who could make a fortune on Wall Street but for some reason would rather do menial work for very little pay.
Homer So are you ready to write that crossover episode into non-existence?
Matt Groening Almost. We just need a few more supplies.
Homer What? Pens? Papers? Dictionaries and Thesauri?
Matt Groening No, coffee. I need you to go on a coffee run.
Homer Why a coffee run? We have freshly-made coffee right here in the coffee machine.
Matt Groening It has to be Starbucks.
Homer It IS Starbucks!
Matt Groening We don't drink the free coffee, Homer.
Matt Groening IT'S JUST NOT THE WAY IT'S DONE!
Task: Make Homer Go on a Coffee Run (4h)

When Worlds Collide Pt. 8

After tapping on Matt Groening's exclamation mark:
Homer All right, I've gotten all the things you need to write.
Homer And I've got to say, it would've been a lot easier if you just gave me the whole list to start.
Matt Groening Sorry about that. But I like watching you move around.
Matt Groening Beautiful character design, if I say so myself.
Homer My eyes are up here, creep.
Matt Groening Unfortunately, as a TV writer, I still need one thing to properly do my writing...
Matt Groening ...a room full of other writers.
Homer WHAT?! WHY?
Matt Groening I can't eat all this food myself.
Task: Make Homer Hire a Writing Staff (8h)

When Worlds Collide Pt. 9

After tapping on Matt Groening's exclamation mark:
Matt Groening Not a bad writing staff, Homer. How'd you find them?
Homer It was easy. I just went to the same place I found the PA's and offered more money.
Homer So as my kids say...
Homer ...are we there yet?
Homer Are we there yet?
Homer ARE WE THERE YET?
Matt Groening Yes, Homer. We're ready to begin the rewriting process.
Homer Thank God! Bless you, Matt Grow-ening.
Matt Groening ...
Task: Make Matt Groening Correct the Pronunciation of his Name (6s)

When Worlds Collide Pt. 10

After tapping on Matt Groening's exclamation mark:
Homer Groaning, Greening, Grundig, Gopnick, Gehring...
Homer I can't get it right, because NO ONE CAN GET IT RIGHT!
Matt Groening Homer, you're a wonderful character.
Homer And that's why you love me. That's why everyone loves me!
Homer I'm the amiable goof, the id with a heart of super-ego. I'm your greatest creation ever!
Homer And that's why you have to destroy the Futurama crossover.
Matt Groening Oh, I will.
Homer So after spending days setting up your writing building, you're finally going to do some writing?
Matt Groening Yes.

When Worlds Collide Pt. 11

After tapping on Matt Groening's exclamation mark:
Matt Groening You'll be happy to know that I rewrote the Futurama crossover.
Homer Thank you, Mr. whatever! No one wanted to see those two worlds collide.
Matt Groening No, they didn't.
Homer Why did you look so sinister when you said that.
Matt Groening Because I decided not to get rid of Futurama, Homer.
Matt Groening I decided to get rid of you.
Homer Get rid of me? But it's an episode of the Simpsons. You need me -- I do the jokes!
Matt Groening I've got Bender.
Homer Well sure, he's a lot like me... only a robot, and crazier, and his voice is all...
Homer Oh God, you really don't need me!
Matt Groening No, and now it's time to get rid of you forever.
Homer But this is my show, and my game. You can't get rid of me just by writing.
Matt Groening Maybe not. But I'm not just a writer -- I'm also an animator.
Task: Make Matt Groening Attempt to Erase Homer (24h)
Homer Haha, that was great -- very Loony Toons-y.
Matt Groening Thanks. And no hard feelings about the Bender over you stuff.
Homer Of course. We all liked Futurama. Sorry about it being cancelled.
Matt Groening Eh, it'd been fourteen years. After that many years, any show has run its course.
Homer ...
Matt Groening What was that?
Homer I said:
Homer ...
