Gil
| After tapping Gil's Queen Helvetica exclamation mark:
|
|
Hey there, Lisa. Why, you remind me of my daughter. Prettiest girl in the Quad-Springfield Tri-Area!
|
|
You're trying to sell me something, Gil. What is it?
|
|
|
Nothing. I was just saying you're the spitting image of my little girl.
|
|
|
Oh, how she loved buying my products!
|
|
|
Really. You sold steak knives and life insurance to your own daughter?
|
|
|
And she drove a hard bargain, let me tell ya!
|
|
|
She's a smart one. Like you.
|
|
|
And pretty. Again, like you.
|
|
|
Please buy something.
|
|
|
I bet you don't even have a daughter. What's her name?
|
|
|
Uh... Stanley. Stanley Grace.
|
|
|
Oh, who am I kidding. I shoulda known I could never get you to buy a life-sized magical princess castle from me.
|
|
|
Even if it DOES come with a matching pink gown. And tiara. And sash that says "HER MAJESTY".
|
|
|
Gimme!
|
The offer pops up.
|
|
Offer Declined
|
|
Gee, Homer, I hate to see your daughter so sad.
|
|
My "daughter", as you call her, can't feel actual sadness.
|
|
|
As "she" is a sequence of 1s and 0s programmed by a nerd at EA.
|
|
|
Same goes for "me", "you" and "whatever you're trying to guilt me into buying". It's all just 1s and 0s!
|
|
|
C'mon. It's a beautiful princess castle! Only 175 donuts!
|
|
|
I hate you. Or rather, "I" "hate" "you".
|
|
Offer Accepted
|
|
Congratulations on your new Castle!
|
|
|
But of course, no castle is complete without steak knives. And do I have some beauties right here. Only 19.95 donuts!
|
|
|
OUT OF MY WAY!

Queen Helvetica
We’re Not in Equalia Anymore Pt.1
| After tapping Lisa's exclamation mark:
|
|
Hello, Springfield! It is I, Queen Helvetica, ruler of the Kingdom of Equalia!
|
|
|
Equalia is a land of tolerance and equal rights for all!
|
|
Wait. If you’re the queen, then it’s not TOTALLY equal, is it?
|
|
|
Well, SOMEONE needs to be queen. You need a government, right? But my every decree is just and fair.
|
|
|
"Decree"? Sheesh, so you’re a dictator?
|
|
|
There’s also a legislature. But they’ve never disagreed with my policies.
|
|
|
So they just rubberstamp everything you say. THAT’S not a system ripe for abuse.
|
|
|
YOU HAVE TO HAVE A QUEEN. OTHERWISE, WHO WEARS THE GOWNS AND TIARAS?
|
|
|
Boys are so dumb.
|
Task: Make Queen Helvetica Write Stories of Equalia (1h, The Castle Of Equalia)
Quest reward:  100 and  10
|
|
We’re Not in Equalia Anymore Pt.2
| After tapping Lisa's exclamation mark:
|
|
|
Mayor Quimby, hail from Equalia! The blessed realm of equality, fairness and acceptance for all.
|
|
Mind telling me how you got elected running on such an asinine platform?
|
|
|
Well, I’m queen so... no elections.
|
|
|
How is a monarchy a land of equality?
|
|
|
IT JUST IS, OKAY? WHY IS EVERYONE SO HUNG UP ON THIS?
|
|
|
Anyway, Springfield could learn much from Equalia. May I share some of our enlightened policies with you?
|
|
|
I’m more interested in you "sharing" the property taxes on that enormous castle. Which is in Springfield.
|
|
|
The blessed realm of paying your taxes or here come the bulldozers.
|
|
|
We have no money in Equalia. We’re a post-scarcity utopian society.
|
|
|
That’s nice. Well, I’ve got a castle to rubble-ize.
|
|
|
Wait! Maybe I could sell you some two-nicorns? It’s a unicorn with two horns.
|
|
|
So it’s a deer.
|
|
|
Well, no. Sort of.
