Gil

After tapping Gil's Queen Helvetica 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. System Message Returning for a limited time sale is the Two-nicorn! Check the Build Menu for details. 300px After tapping: Task: Reach Level 20 and Build Town Hall (48,500, 24h) Task: Make Queen Helvetica Meet with Mayor Quimby (12h, Town Hall, Quimby) Quest reward: 100 and 10

We’re Not in Equalia Anymore Pt.3

After tapping Lisa's exclamation mark: Long live Queen Helvetica! Ruthless despot of that blessed realm! The Iron Lady of Tolerance! You should visit Equalia. Seriously, everybody’s totally happy. They’d better be! Or else! Am I right, oh Most Beneficent Tyrant? Why can’t I explain this to anyone? If you’ve got propaganda to deliver, television is a first-rate medium! Task: Reach Level 23 and Build Channel 6 (46,000, 24h) Task: Make Queen Helvetica Do an Interview (4h, Channel 6) Kent Brockman, here, with Queen Helvetica. Tell us about Equalia, Your Majesty. It’s a land of equal rights for-- Any juicy gossip about the royal family? Bring us up to speed on the disgraceful scandals currently besmirching your reign. Uh... You see, America has never known monarchy. We pretend that makes us better than other nations. When, in fact, we are consumed with jealousy. Jealousy of the scrumptious, titillating gossip that even a second-rate royal family vomits forth! So feed the tabloid monster! How many of your sons are you ashamed of? I’m eight years old. You heard it here first, folks. A mother at eight! God, I love depraved royalty. Quest reward: 100 and 10

We’re Not in Equalia Anymore Pt.4

After tapping Lisa's exclamation mark: I came to deliver a message of hope and peace, and all they care about is gossip-rag fodder! Sure, I’ve got some great diet tips. And my great-aunt DID have a torrid affair with an orc in that one story. But why is that more interesting than the fine points of anti-discrimination laws? Perhaps I'll have better luck talking with other children. This just in! Royal floozy trolls for boy toys! News at six! Task: Make Queen Helvetica Speak at Springfield Elementary (12h, Springfield Elementary) Kent Brockman here, with local bully Nelson Muntz. Nelson, what was your impression of Queen Helvetica’s tour of Springfield Elementary? Kent, my impression was that she was very into me, and wants my junk. And by junk you mean? I have no idea. Quest reward: 100 and 10

We’re Not in Equalia Anymore Pt.5

After tapping Lisa's exclamation mark: Everyone in this town has a horrible opinion of me! Hey Queenie! Keep your shady regal attitude outta my shady bar!

Task: Make Queen Helvetica Hide from Paparazzi (24h, Brown House) Quest reward: 100 and 10

We’re Not in Equalia Anymore Pt.6

After tapping Lisa's exclamation mark: I can’t take this place! Why won’t you leave me alone!? Just wait out the news cycle. Everyone forgets about everything after one news cycle. And... done. There. You’re yesterday’s news. Congratulations, whoever you are. Uh, thanks! So who replaced me in the public consciousness? Some kid on ViewTube who puts metal objects into electrical sockets. There he is! File:Tapped Out Electrocuted Ralph.png I’m a miracle I’m still alive! I can always count on you, Ralph Wiggum. Task: Make Queen Helvetica Listen to the Royal MyPod (12h) Quest reward: 100 and 10
