Gameplay

Ungrateful Dead

Ungrateful Dead Pt.1

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: Springfield has really grown. It has all the necessary services of a modern American town. But that still leaves the unnecessary ones. What are you thinking? Yoga studio? Even worse. Task: Build Monroe Family Therapy Center Quest reward: 100 and 10

Ungrateful Dead Pt.2

After tapping on Marvin Monroe's exclamation mark: After years trapped in the abyss of limbo, I'm back among the living! What a profound and traumatic experience! Pfft, everyone in this town has gone through that. Well, except me. But it's a voyage to the beyond and back! A little death, if you will. Don't mind if I do! This sort of thing should take years of therapy to process! Task: Make Marvin Monroe Tell People How They Should Feel (4h, Monroe Family Therapy Center) Quest reward: 100 and 10

Ungrateful Dead Pt.3

After tapping on Marvin Monroe's exclamation mark: This entire town has been through the trauma of death and rebirth. Ugh. Are you still going on about this?! Most people just make a joke about it and move on. Usually with some scheme to make money... or some story involving a conspiracy theory. No, Homer! This town needs therapy... and I'm the only previously-licensed therapist here. Forget it. I'm not paying some guy to listen to my problems... Except in the form of buying a lot of beer at his bar. What if the session was free? How's next Tuesday at 1:00? Task: Make Marvin Monroe Offer a Therapy Deal (8h, Monroe Family Therapy Center) Quest reward: 100 and 10

Ungrateful Dead Pt.4

After tapping on Marvin Monroe's exclamation mark: Welcome, Homer. Are you ready for your session? I've got my top three questions ready to go. You have questions? Yup. Number one...what are the winning lottery numbers for this weekend? What? Okay, tell me who wins at the track this weekend. Homer, I'm not a psychic, I'm a psychiatrist! Top grossing Summer movies? *sigh* Just... tell me about your childhood. Task: Make Marvin Monroe Psychoanalyze Homer (12h, Monroe Family Therapy Center, Homer) If the user hasn't unlocked Kearney, after job start: System Message Check in with Kearney to see what the REALLY psychologically damaged are up to! After job complete: ...and then it turned out Mom wasn't dead and Dad had been lying to me-- That's tough stuff, Homer. Tough stuff. Is that all you have to say? Uhm... I'm spilling my guts out to you, man! Say something! Uhm… That's all the time we have? Quest reward: 100 and 10

Ungrateful Dead Pt.5

After tapping on Milhouse's exclamation mark: I've got big problems, Doc. You've come to the right place! I have a constant feeling of dread, like my entire future is at risk. What is your biggest concern? I don't like where the Radioactive Man franchise movie is going. It's making me start to doubt his origin story. Who's the villain? Who am I rooting for?! Milhouse, these aren't real problems. It's too much for me to handle sometimes! Task: Make Marvin Monroe Psychoanalyze Milhouse (4h, Monroe Family Therapy Center, Milhouse) Quest reward: 100 and 10

Ungrateful Dead Pt.6

After tapping on Marvin Monroe's exclamation mark: Mister Nahasapeemapetilon, what would you like to talk about today? The role of death in life? The meaning of existence? Honestly, I just came in for an hour of peace away from my eight soul-crushing little miracles. I see. So tell me what's going on with your family. Can we just sit in silence instead? Umm… Shhhh! Task: Make Marvin Monroe Sit in Silence (24h, Monroe Family Therapy Center, Apu) Quest reward: 100 and 10

Ungrateful Dead Pt.7

After tapping on Marvin Monroe's exclamation mark: What purpose do I have as a therapist if no one will talk about real problems? Wait a minute -- I'm talking about real problems!

I'm lucky enough to have access to the best -- and only -- therapist in Springfield! Task: Make Marvin Monroe Psychoanalyze Dr. Marvin Monroe (20h, Walk-In Therapy Stand) What a great session. I feel so much better now. I'll just tally up the bill and... Six hundred dollars?! That's insane! You psychiatrists are crooks! I should report you to the authorities, Dr. Monroe! Go ahead. Of course, then you'd have to admit you saw a psychiatrist. Ooh, can't do that. Here, take your blood money! Yay! I'm rich! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Lowering the Bar

Lowering the Bar Pt. 1

After completing Ungrateful Dead Pt. 4 if the user has Kearney After tapping on Marvin Monroe's exclamation mark: I thought that making the first session free would get people hooked, but no one is scheduling follow-up appointments. Apparently therapy is more like LSD than crack. If only there were another way for an overeducated man to make money. What about an NSF research grant? It's how I make ends meet. That would be a great idea, but psychology is not a real science. Neither is what I do, with the whatzitmatrons and combulators and robots built to love that always leave me for other robots. By God, you're right! If biologists can call themselves scientists, then so can I! Task: Make Marvin Monroe Set Up a Research Study (8h, Monroe Family Therapy Center Quest reward: 100 and 10

Lowering the Bar Pt. 2

Task: Make Kids Take Monroe's Test [x4] (4h, Monroe Family Therapy Center) Task: Make Kearney Take Monroe's Test (4h, Monroe Family Therapy Center) Hmm, the results of these psychological tests are all pretty average. Except for this one from a Mr. Kearney. His scores place him at a high school level! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Lowering the Bar Pt. 3

After tapping on Kearney's exclamation mark: All right nerd, I did your test. Now where's my money? This study is going to get me published and rock the psychiatric world! You're the most advanced ten-year-old I've ever worked with! That's because I'm in my twenties. Or forties. Oh, who knows -- sometimes I have grandkids. So you're an adult? Then you're not above average at all. Quite a bit below, in fact. Tell me something I don't know and haven't heard before many many times. Task: Make Marvin Monroe Throw Out His Research (8h, Monroe Family Therapy Center Quest reward: 100 and 10

A Sign of the Grimes Pt. 1

After tapping on Frank Grimes's exclamation mark: Here I am, back in Springfield. It's like I never left. Grimey! You're back! But I thought you were dead. It's Frank. And apparently, I was just in a coma which, of course, led to being buried alive. Sounds great. So now let's talk about me... Ah, Homer. The old me would have been at your throat for such insensitivity. But I've done a lot of reflecting in my coffin, and nothing you say can bother me anymore. So I got this zit on my back, and even after I pop it it doesn't go away. On second thought, I think I'll pop in for a quick meditation.

When'd you get into this crap, Grimey? After that time you made me kill myself. I realized I can't change you – I can only change myself. Wow, that's deep. Just like your grave. Put ‘er there, friend. You... you want to be friends? With me? Of course. Homer and Grimey! Okay! And it's Frank. Task: Make Frank Grimes Accept Homer's Company (8h, Brown House, Homer) Quest reward: 100 and 10

A Sign of the Grimes Pt. 4

After tapping on Frank Grimes's exclamation mark: Homer? That smell... what is it? Top or bottom? I got dog slobber on my shirt but I also spilled old milk on my pants. It reeks like burning tires... Oh, heh heh. That'd be the bottom then. Task: Make Frank Grimes Endure Homer's Company (24h, Brown House, Homer) Quest reward: 100 and 10

A Sign of the Grimes Pt. 5
