The Simpsons: Tapped Out All This Jazz content update/Gameplay

Burning Bridges

After the user logs in on September 23rd: Wow, Dad. I've never seen you read an actual newspaper before. Oh, this? This is just a large-print — wait, it IS a newspaper! Let's see... <nowiki>*<nowiki>reading<nowiki>*<nowiki> "Explosion at Nuclear Plant", "Serial Killer on the Loose"... Ooh, here's something: "Plans Unveiled For New CostMo"! How many more CostMos do we need in Springfield? I can see three from our window right now. Yeah, but to make room for this one, they get to finally tear down that dumb memorial bridge. No! Not the Springfield Memorial Bridge! Oh, I'm sure they'll build a new bridge somewhere to memorialize the old one. But they can't tear it down! It was Bleeding Gums Murphy's favorite spot to play his saxophone. It's where we first met. Look Lisa, nobody likes that bridge. It's ugly and it doesn't do that cool thing where it lifts up to let giant boats pass under it. Because of those two things, it deserves to go. Ugh, why am I wasting my time talking to you when I can be wasting my time talking to the mayor! <nowiki>*<nowiki>storms out<nowiki>*<nowiki> <nowiki>*<nowiki>flips page<nowiki>*<nowiki> Man, newspapers got weird. No sports section, and twelve pages of obituaries? Task: Make Lisa Go Straight to the Mayor (30s, Town Hall, Court House or Brown House) Task: Make Homer Read More of His Newspaper (30s, Simpson House or Brown House) Look, Miss Not-Old-Enough-To-Vote-Yet, CostMo is my biggest political donor. That's your argument? Well, yeah. Plus, that bridge doesn't do that cool thing where it lifts up— ...to let boats pass under it. Yeah, I know... Well, then I'm glad we agree. The bridge is set to detonate this Sunday. But Springfield Memorial Bridge is a historic landmark! It is? Shoot! Our laws forbid historic landmarks from being destroyed. Oh, I just meant, you know... historic to me. Ok, I don't have time for your nonsense anymore. Plus, I have a three o'clock tennis lesson with my mistress. Today we're practicing our ground strokes. Wait, what if I can raise enough money to repair the bridge? Would you agree to move the CostMo somewhere else? Fine. If you can raise a million dollars by the end of the week, then I'll save the bridge. But it only costs half of that to repair it. The rest is, er-uh, a campaign donation. Ok, whatever it takes to save the bridge. But in the future, you really should be more covert about your bribes and kickbacks. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Song and Dance

Song and Dance Pt. 1

After completing Burning Bridges: Mr. Palmer? Mr. Le Marquez? I'm not sure if you remember me, but… How could we forget the younger sister of jazz maestro Tic Tock Simpson! The Skinny Palmer Trio hasn't been the same since we lost Tic Tock. Now we're just the <nowiki>*<nowiki>sobbing<nowiki>*<nowiki> Skinny Palmer Duo. I don't care if you're a duo or trio or even an ensemble! They're tearing down Springfield Memorial Bridge to build a CostMo! Bleeding Gums Murphy's favorite saxophonin' spot?! But that bridge represents all things jazz in Springfield. Our only hope is raising enough money to fix the bridge...and to bribe the mayor. How much are we talkin'? Well, a "Save The Bridge Jazz Benefit Concert" could do the trick. You find the venue, and we'll provide the music. I feel like the third member of the trio! Well, give us some saxophone, then. <nowiki>*<nowiki>plays saxophone<nowiki>*<nowiki> Maybe next year. Task: Collect Vinyl Records [x125] Task: Make Lisa Find a Venue for the Benefit Concert (4h, Duff Stadium, Basketball Stadium, Springfield Hyperstadium, Jazzy Goodtime's, The Jazz Hole, Cletus's Farm or Brown House) Ah, yeah. Take the G-train, baby. Groovetone! Who are you talking to? Oh, didn't you hear? Your old man is getting the band back together. We are what happens when jazz meets funk, then ditches funk for ROCK! You know, we could come sing at your concert thingamajig... Oh, yeah…but all the money goes to save that bridge you hate, so... Well, I'm starting to warm up to that bridge. Ugh, your weird Dad-band can't play. What about during sound check? Fine. Woo-hoo! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Song and Dance Pt. 2

After completing Song and Dance Pt. 1: Lisa, this venue is the size of two Superdomes. You realize that the jazz community in Springfield is extremely small. Since Tic Tock left, our fan base probably couldn't fill a garage, let alone this. Two car or four car garage? When someone says "garage", you imagine a four car garage? Check your privilege. Fine, we'll just have the concert at Jazzy Goodtime's. But even then, how am I going to get enough fans to buy tickets? Marbles, are you thinking what I'm thinking? I don't know what you're thinking, but I'm excited! I'm thinking that promoting the concert is not our problem! <nowiki>*<nowiki>low fiving<nowiki>*<nowiki> Outta sight! Groovay, groovay! Okay...well, I'm going to go off by myself and find some people in town who appreciate jazz. Let us know when you've given up. I liked them better when they were a trio. Task: Collect Vinyl Records [x125] Task: Make Lisa Promote the Jazz Benefit Concert (4h, Town Hall, Court House, Simpson House or Brown House) If the user has Skinny Palmer: Task: Make Skinny Palmer Recruit Jazz Musicians for the Concert (4h, Springfeild Retirement Castle, Springfield Elementary or Brown House) <nowiki>*<nowiki>playing saxophone<nowiki>*<nowiki> Jazz lovers of Springfield! I hope you are enjoying these cool jazz stylings. If you'd like to hear more, come to the "Save The Bridge Jazz Benefit Concert" this Friday night! I'd rather read the YA vampire book my son's writing! Really? I'd love to hear your thoughts. Does it end with the heartthrob vampire teaming up with the humans to take on all the "evil" vampires? <nowiki>*<nowiki>gulps<nowiki>*<nowiki> Am I that predictable? Ugh, at this rate, no one's going to buy a ticket. All right, my next song is "Fly Me to The Moon". <nowiki>*<nowiki>plays saxophone<nowiki>*<nowiki> Boo! I'm trying to have a nice day out with my family and your jazz-noise is ruining it! Even my Dad is booing me... Bleeding Gums Murphy, if you're listening, I need all the jazz powers you can summon. <nowiki>*<nowiki>plays saxophone<nowiki>*<nowiki> Save it for KJAZZ! <nowiki>*<nowiki>getting idea<nowiki>*<nowiki> KJAZZ, that's it! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Song and Dance Pt. 3

After completing Song and Dance Pt. 2: This is KJAZZ radio and you're listening to "Moleman in the Morning". Sponsored by the Piano Tuners Union — When We Strike, We Strike A Chord. Today, I am joined by Lisa Simpson and the Skinny Palmer Duo for some "Bebop Banter". Now, Lisa. I hear through the groovy grapevine that you're putting on a little jazz concert? That's right! We're raising money for— Lisa, I've got this one… Folks, Moleman, jazzos and jazzettes, we got a couple cool cats bluesin' down a hot groove this fresh and funky Friday over at Jazzy Goodtime's. Yeah and it's all to benefit— They're gonna be layin' licks smooth and sultry, poppin' off the top of the bebop, hittin' the drop, nonstop. And when we hit the refrain, you will be transported to the jazz promised land. Well, you heard it here first, listeners. It's gonna be a hot show on Friday over at Jazzy Goodtime's! We'll be back with more "Moleman in the Morning" after a short break. Catch you on the B-side.

Quest reward: 100 and 10

Song and Dance Pt. 4

After completing Song and Dance Pt. 3: I can't believe every single person who called into the radio show asked to see Tic Tock Simpson. Except for that one guy who just breathed heavily into the phone for a while. That was weird. No, I called about him too. Just froze up when they put me "on air". Was Bart really that good? He's one of the best ten-year-old drummers I've ever played with. <nowiki>*<nowiki>sigh<nowiki>*<nowiki> I think I'm gonna regret this... Regret what? Are you talking to us? Task: Collect Vinyl Records [x125] Task: Make Lisa Ask Tic Tock to Come Out of Retirement (4h, Simpson House or Brown House) Bart, I don't want some long drawn-out negotiation, but…I need your help. You do all my chores for six months. You don't even know what I was going to ask. Something lame I'm sure. It isn't lame! It's for a good cause! Good cause? Make it a year of chores. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Song and Dance Pt. 5

After completing Song and Dance Pt. 4: Lisa, this benefit concert is really hoppin'! I can feel the doo-woppity-bah-bops in my soul. Blind Willie Witherspoon is almost done playing his set. Hoo-dog, that cat knows his way around an umbrella. But we're almost to the end of the acts and we haven't made nearly enough money. It's time to bring in the big guns. And by guns, I mean Bart. Alright, Bart. You ready to give the people what they want? I'm not Bart. I'm Tic Tock "Skippity Bop" Simpson. <nowiki>*<nowiki>groan<nowiki>*<nowiki> Task: Collect Vinyl Records [x125] Task: Make Tic Tock "Skippity Bop" Simpson Give the People What They Want (4h, Jazzy Goodtime's, The Jazz Hole, Cletus's Farm or Brown House) Task: Make Lisa Resent Bart's Innate Musical Talent (4h, Jazzy Goodtime's, The Jazz Hole, Cletus's Farm or Brown House) <nowiki>*<nowiki>drum solo<nowiki>*<nowiki> Wow, he really is good. Boo! Boo! Boo! You suck! Why is everyone booing? They're all specifically here for Tic Tock Simpson. Boo! We want TikTok Simpson! But…this IS Tic Tock Simpson! No, TikTok Simpson! From that TikTok video where he did the funny dance! <nowiki>*<nowiki>gasp<nowiki>*<nowiki> That's what you were asking for? <nowiki>*<nowiki>chanting<nowiki>*<nowiki> DO THE DANCE! <nowiki>*<nowiki>chanting<nowiki>*<nowiki> DO THE DANCE! <nowiki>*<nowiki>chanting<nowiki>*<nowiki> DO THE DANCE! Lisa, if I do the dance, then you have to add another year of chores! This better work! <nowiki>*<nowiki>does the dance<nowiki>*<nowiki> Woo! Now I can empty my wallet and donate to save the bridge! Yay! Take our entire allowances! You don't have allowances! I guess it is for charity though. The original TikTok video was better. But since I'm here, I might as well donate! Quest reward: 100 and 10

When the Moon Hits Your Eye

After completing Song and Dance Pt. 5: Well, I suppose people still don't "get" jazz. But at least we raised enough money to repair the bridge. And you did a beautiful job, Lisa. <nowiki>*<nowiki>gasp<nowiki>*<nowiki> Bleeding Gums Murphy?! But…I thought you were— Dead? Lisa, I may be gone, but I'm not dead. What do you mean? Well, do you still think about me when you pass this bridge? Of course I do. Well, then there you go. I'm not dead as long as this bridge exists. <nowiki>*<nowiki>plays saxophone<nowiki>*<nowiki> Want to join? <nowiki>*<nowiki>plays saxophone<nowiki>*<nowiki> I think we make an awesome duo.

Alright, here are your turtlenecks. Can we record your album now? The tight fabric on my neck pinches my trachea just right to give me those tight harmonies. I said XXL, what is this, Kirk? It's actually XXXL. Oh, maybe I have to break it in first. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Peaceful Groovy Feeling Pt. 2

After tapping on Marbles Le Marquez's exclamation mark: No woman, no pie! Ooooooh, ooooooooh! Cut! Cut! It's all wrong. Marbles, that smooth bass needs to be, uh…smoother. Smoother? Are you wanting funky smooth, groovy smooth, maybe some funky-groovy smooth? Obviously it needs to be a funky-groovy-light-hip-hoppin-smooth fusion. It's all in the sheet music! All right, calm down, James Brown. Task: Make Marbles Le Marquez Play the Smooth Bass Uh…Smoother (4h) Okay, that's sounding better, Marbles. But a bit of feedback...try to make it a little more, uh…shapely. Shapely? Yeah, you know, like how the bass strings should sound uh… measured but also…sardonic. What are you reading? Is that a thesaurus? No, I mean... <nowiki>*<nowiki>reads thesaurus<nowiki>*<nowiki> negative. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Peaceful Groovy Feeling Pt. 3

After tapping on Marbles Le Marquez's exclamation mark: <nowiki>*<nowiki>playing the bass<nowiki>*<nowiki> Is this sardonic enough for you? Oh, that's perfect. <nowiki>*<nowiki>the power goes out<nowiki>*<nowiki> <nowiki>*<nowiki>in the pitch black<nowiki>*<nowiki> Uh…Homer are you supposed to be at work right now? Oh, do I have to do everything?! Book the studio, Homer. Don't forget the turtlenecks, Homer. Show up to work so the town doesn't lose power, Homer. I've done enough. Let's get lunch. Kirk, head to the power plant and fix the problem. Okay, but I don't know what to do or where to go or— It's easy! Here, take this keycard.

This is all part of the creative process! What you need to do is use all that frustration and inject it into the music! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Peaceful Groovy Feeling Pt. 4

After tapping on Marbles Le Marquez's exclamation mark: Alright, Marbles. This next song is gonna need you on the piano. It's a smooth groovin' tune about love, loss, and how much I hate Marge's sisters. Piano? But I'm a bass player. That's all I know how to play. Well, bass and triangle. Hmm, triangle might be better. This could be good. <nowiki>*<nowiki>triangle trill<nowiki>*<nowiki> I love it!

That's the power of music, Lou. The power of music... Quest reward: 100 and 10

Peaceful Groovy Feeling Pt. 5

After tapping on Marbles Le Marquez's exclamation mark: Looks like the album is finally done. Marbles, time to get out there and sell. You want me to go sell your albums? But it's your band. I can't go out and sell the album. I have to think about the music. How do you think I come up with all this? Ooh, that could be a song! How do you think the music arrives? / Like rain on a desert mountain? / Like the sky falling down and crushing our lives? It's a work-in-progress. Task: Make Marbles Le Marquez Sell Albums on the Corner (1h) Task: Make Homer Wait for His Huge Payday (1h, Groovetone Record's, Simpson House or Brown House) Well, how many millions of albums did you sell? Two. Two million albums?! Two albums. To the same person. Marge Simpson. And then she returned them. Here's an itemized bill for the studio time. <nowiki>*<nowiki>gasp<nowiki>*<nowiki> This wasn't free? Um, Kirk will take care of it. What? RUN!!!!! Quest reward: 200 and 20

The Bionic Boy

The Bionic Boy Pt. 1

After tapping on Bart's exclamation mark: Skinny Palmer? Marbles Le Marquez? What are you doing here at my house? You're looking slick, Downbeat. Ugh, can we rethink my jazz name? I really think I'm more fitting of a name like— Nope. Jazz names don't change. You're Downbeat for life. <nowiki>*<nowiki>sigh<nowiki>*<nowiki> Okay...Downbeat it is. Cheer up, Downbeat. Is Tic Tock around? Bart! Your jazz friends want you to come out and play! What's up, Daddy-Os? Tic Tock, the Skinny Palmer Trio is at a crossroads. We've never drawn crowds like when we had Tic Tock Simpson tappin' the rat-a-tats and the clickety-clacks. Don't forget the skibbity-scats. You see? We're off our game. I even forgot the skibbity-scats. Though more specifically we are out of what I like to call jazz fuel. Mary Jane? No, money! I'm picking up shifts disinfecting shoes at the Bowlarama, and let me tell you that place is a jazz funeral — but less fun. Hmm, it's gonna be tough to fit you guys into my schedule, but being famous was pretty awesome... Please, Bart. Okay, I'll rejoin the band. On one condition, I get to decide where we go to lunch. You only ever want Krusty Burger...and I'm a vegetarian. I keep telling you, fries are a food group. Task: Make Tic Tock Simpson Sign Autographs for the Ladies (4h) So, I know how Lisa and I got our jazz names, but what about you guys? Oh, me? They call me "Skinny" because my metabolism is faster than "Jeep's Blues" played double-time on the jump. Alright, I'm gonna assume that's fast because I don't want to look it up. What about you, Marbles? I would prefer not to say. He accidentally thought a marble was a grape and the rest is history. That's why my teeth look like this. Quest reward: 100 and 10

The Bionic Boy Pt. 2

After tapping on Bart's exclamation mark: Ugh, guys I'm trying, but ever since I got carpal tunnel playing "Conflict of Enemies", I haven't been able to drum the same. Oh, you'll be fine — carpal tunnel is no big deal. I played for sixty-three hours straight. Now my arm is blue and stiff enough to crack walnuts. <nowiki>*<nowiki>cracks a walnut<nowiki>*<nowiki> Well what about surgery? How much would it cost to fix it? They don't take insurance for videogame-related injuries, so the surgery's $78,000. I guess we'll just have to do a benefit concert. A benefit concert?! Outta sight! <nowiki>*<nowiki>down low<nowiki>*<nowiki> In the pocket! No! Guys, stop. Enough with the benefit concerts. We already did that, remember? And I gave all the money to Lisa. So what do we do? It sounds too easy, but I guess it wouldn't hurt to just ask her... Task: Make Tic Tock Simpson Ask Lisa for the Money (1h, Simpson House or Brown House) Bart, there is no more money. The bridge has been repaired and I spent the extra on making it do that thing where it lifts up to let boats pass. Whoa, I love when bridges do that! I never thought you'd actually use the money to save the bridge. I thought you were going to just put it toward your college fund. $50,000 tuition to go to college online? No thanks. Quest reward: 100 and 10

The Bionic Boy Pt. 3

After tapping on Bart's exclamation mark: Sorry, guys. I talked to Downbeat, but she already spent the money. Man, that girl is always bringin' us down. But it's okay, because look at this ad I just discovered in the newspaper. Bionic prosthetics? And they're free as long as you agree to take part in their medical study and sign a two hundred and sixteen page waiver of liability! Tic Tock, you'll get your arm back and you'll end up being an even better drummer. Never before have I loved a plan as much as this one! Well, besides the time we tricked Milhouse into putting his finger in that pencil sharpener. And I didn't even get to get a cool bionic finger out of it. Task: Make Tic Tock Simpson Get a Bionic Arm (6h, Springfield General Hospital, Hibbert Family Practice or Brown House) And Bart, that's where we'll make a deep incision and attach the bionic arm to the nerve cluster. Cool! Can I get a laser on it? Or an attachment that shoots out ninja stars?! <nowiki>*<nowiki>chuckles<nowiki>*<nowiki> All in due time, Bart. I just need a signature on this form from one of your parents. Okay, signed. Where'd you come from? Oh, I was just stopping by. Artery got clogged again so they did one of those routine open-heart oil changes on me. None of that was routine. Well, good luck with the robo-arm. I'm off to get my routine bucket of chicken and barrel of beer. Quest reward: 100 and 10

The Bionic Boy Pt. 4

After tapping on Bart's exclamation mark: This new bionic arm is awesome! A little hard to control though. Yeah, you ripped out my car door and nearly killed my cat when you petted him. Let's see how this Terminator arm does on the hi-hat. Real quick though, could you open this jar of pickles for me? These lil' baby dills been callin' my name, but the jar just won't give. <nowiki>*<nowiki>jar shatters<nowiki>*<nowiki> You must have loosened it. Task: Make Tic Tock Simpson Do Some Bionic Drumming (1h) Whoa, Tic Tock. You're rocking those drums harder than that verbally abused kid in "Whiplash"! With that bionic arm going, I think I feel a jazz name change comin'. How does "Iron Jam" sound? I have no control over the arm! Help! It won't stop! <nowiki>*<nowiki>drum smashes<nowiki>*<nowiki> Run! That arm thinks everything's a drum! Quest reward: 100 and 10

The Bionic Boy Pt. 5

After tapping on Bart's exclamation mark: Doc, you gotta get this thing off me. It's got a mind of its own! <nowiki>*<nowiki>chuckles<nowiki>*<nowiki> Oh, I should hope so. It sure wouldn't be very useful in our study on bionic artificial intelligence if it didn't. You did read the paperwork? Ahhhh! My hand keeps trying to steal your syringe off you and kill me with it! <nowiki>*<nowiki>scribbling notes<nowiki>*<nowiki> Wants to kill patient...knows what a syringe is...fascinating stuff. Task: Make Tic Tock Simpson Un-Get a Bionic Arm (6h, Springfield General Hospital, Hibbert Family Practice or Brown House) Well, some things just don't work out. But I think we've learned a good lesson here. I don't think I've learned anything. Always keep yourself at arm's length from a bionic arm. Physically and figuratively. Right on. Indubitably. In the pocket. Boogie Woogie. You really need to have the last word don't ya? Ab-so-lute-ly! Quest reward: 200 and 20

The Couch Caper

The Couch Caper Pt. 1

After completing Song and Dance Pt. 3 or the event ends. After tapping on Skinny Palmer's exclamation mark: Honey, I'm home! What in the heck are you doing? Just squeezing these free ketchup packets into our old bottle of ketchup. Why don't you just buy more? With the money you make playing jazz? I can only afford the essential condiments: salsa and Dijon. <nowiki>*<nowiki>sigh<nowiki>*<nowiki> It won't always be like this. I promise. I'm gonna land that record deal and things will be looking up for— Wait, where's Eleanor? Who? Eleanor, my trumpet! I left her right here by the couch before I went out, and now she's gone. Am I your trumpet's keeper? Well, jazzos and jazzettes, it looks like we've got ourselves a good old-fashioned mystery. You haven't even started looking yet. I will get to the bottom of this. Task: Make Skinny Palmer Follow the Clues (2h, Bachelor Arms, Krabappel Apartment, Spinster City Apartments, Apu's Apartment, Village Apartments or Brown House) If the user has Lunchlady Dora: Task: Make Lunchlady Dora Squeeze Ketchup Packets (2h, Bachelor Arms, Krabappel Apartment, Spinster City Apartments, Apu's Apartment, Village Apartments or Brown House) <nowiki>*<nowiki>groans<nowiki>*<nowiki> What are you doing now? If I shine this blacklight, it'll show you where bodily fluids are. I learned it from every CSI that's ever aired. You really think a robber took the trumpet and then left a trail of fluid everywhere? I'm only following the evidence. Quest reward: 100 and 10

The Couch Caper Pt. 2

After tapping on Skinny Palmer's exclamation mark: Hmm, it looks like the trail of clues heads out the door and then goes cold. To crack this case, I must combine all the skills of Sherlock Holmes, Poirot, Bosch, and Veronica Mars. I used to love that show! Anyway. If you're going out will you at least swing by Krusty Burger and get me some more ketchup packets? The game is afoot! And justice waits for no condiments. Task: Make Skinny Palmer Stock Up on Detective Supplies (4h, Try-N-Save, Sprawl Mart, CostMo, Herman's Military Antiques, Springfield Grocery Store or Brown House) One box of gloves. <nowiki>*<nowiki>beep<nowiki>*<nowiki> One set of night-vision goggles. <nowiki>*<nowiki>beep<nowiki>*<nowiki> And they better be the kind that make everything look green. One hidden camera. <nowiki>*<nowiki>beep<nowiki>*<nowiki> It's not hidden yet. Thank you for shopping at Try-N-Save. Now it's time to catch the thief who stole my instrument! Before you do that, could you fill out a short customer experience survey? Quest reward: 100 and 10

The Couch Caper Pt. 3

After tapping on Skinny Palmer's exclamation mark: Shoot, I forgot my magnifying glass and I need it to find my trumpet. I hear you've got quite a case on your hands...Skinny. Who are you? My name is Manacek. You look like you time-traveled here from the 1979 set of "Big Shamus, Little Shamus". See, the curious thing about your stolen trumpet is...stealing it was an inside job. So you think I stole it? No, but I'm going to get to the bottom of this...even if it means leaving no pet rock unturned. We have to stock up for the stakeout. I'm thinking a bottle of Cognac and a thick stack of "Paris Match" magazines. A stakeout? Who do we need to stake out? There's a little lunchlady who isn't little and isn't telling the truth either. Task: Make Skinny Palmer Have a Stakeout (4h, Chalmers' 1979 _ONDA, Canyonero, Sterline Commander, Secret Agent Car, Homer's Car, Unlicensed Taxi, Willie's Tractor, WWII Tank, La Bicyclette or Brown House) If the user has Manacek: Task: Make Manacek Have a Stakeout (4h, Chalmers' 1979 _ONDA, Canyonero, Starline Commander, Secret Agent Car, Homer's Car, Unlicensed Taxi, Willie's Tractor, WWII Tank, La Bicyclette or Brown House) So why exactly are we staking out my girlfriend? Don't you think the robber is long gone by now? They always come back to the scene of the crime. And in this case, the robber lives at the scene of the crime. These night-vision goggles make my head hurt. You flip the 8-track and I'll test out this so-called "night-vision". Do you see Lunchlady Dora in there? Yeah, she's cooking up some tater-tots...in her birthday suit. You're not creeping on her, are you? Sorry, falling in love with a mysterious woman is the first step to solving a crime. Luckily for you, your lunchlady repulses me. You haven't helped at all in finding my trumpet. Haven't I? No. Well, for what it's worth — and it is worth quite a bit — your trumpet isn't at your house. It's at Lunchlady Dora's second boyfriend's house. She stole my trumpet and she's two-timing me? You really have a knack for this, Skinny. Quest reward: 100 and 10

The Couch Caper Pt. 4

After tapping on Skinny Palmer's exclamation mark: <nowiki>*<nowiki>grumbling<nowiki>*<nowiki> That 1970s detective thinks he knows so much about my personal life just because his entire job is finding stuff out. I need to clear my head, get a good night's rest, and pick up the clues in the morning after some waffles and— Wait, what's this? A trail of footprints leading away from my front door? Task: Make Skinny Palmer Follow the Footprints (4h) It looks like these footprints lead right to the Municipal House of Pancakes. Can I get a short stack of pancakes? And did you want those pancakes American, Swedish, or Scooty Hooty Sweet and Fruity? Dora? Since when were you working night shifts at MHOP? I need — I mean, we need the money. But I provide for you, right baby? Not really, no. I make more as a lunchlady, and that's really saying something. Actually, scratch that. Lemme have the Ham Slam with cheese and a side of Don't Go Bacon My Heart. Otto, can you give us a minute here? Also, you should really try the French toast. It's delicious. Right on, amigo! Are you not telling me something? I'm not not telling you something. Quest reward: 100 and 10

The Couch Caper Pt. 5

After tapping on Skinny Palmer's exclamation mark: You're right, Dora. Losing my trumpet is probably a sign that I need to get my life together and try to provide for you more. So I guess my days of jazz are over. I'm sorry, Skinny. First thing Monday morning I'm going to get me a job that'll make me the man you first decided to casually date. Oh, thank you. But first things first, let's scrounge up what money we do have so we can find a new place and get out of this dump. Task: Make Skinny Palmer Search the Couch Cushions for Coins (2h, Bachelor Arms, Krabappel Apartment, Spinster City Apartments, Apu's Apartment, Village Apartments or Brown House) If the user has Lunchlady Dora: Task: Make Lunchlady Dora Search the Couch Cushions for Coins (2h, Bachelor Arms, Krabappel Apartment, Spinster City Apartments, Apu's Apartment, Village Apartments or Brown House) <nowiki>*<nowiki>searching the couch cushions<nowiki>*<nowiki> There's got to be money in here somewhere! Hold on, what's this? <nowiki>*<nowiki>gasps<nowiki>*<nowiki> My trumpet! <nowiki>*<nowiki>gasps<nowiki>*<nowiki> Don't pretend to be surprised, Dora. No, Manacek. You haven't solved anything. My trumpet was right here in the couch cushions the whole time! But was it? <nowiki>*<nowiki>flashback<nowiki>*<nowiki> It was a simple matter of Lunchlady Dora pretending to look for your trumpet when in reality she was hiding it right under your caboose. But then why would she leave it in the couch? Because that's not your trumpet. It's a perfect replica — examine the polish. It tastes unlacquered! It's a silver varnish instead of brass. Once you left to pick up your dry cleaning, Lunchlady Dora went straight to King Toot's to sell your trumpet to the highest bidder. And after selling that trumpet's weight in brass, Lunchlady Dora thought she was in the clear. But then...you ran into me. So, panicking, she made a perfect replica of the trumpet, then stuffed that replica back into the couch. Nothing you say makes any sense! Oh, and one more thing. She's having an affair with King Toot. Okay, it's all true! I admit it! I needed the money! And I needed King Toot! He's the one I love! I'm sorry, Manacek. I should have never doubted you. Solving a crime has many fathers, but no sons. <nowiki>*<nowiki>chuckles<nowiki>*<nowiki> I like you, Manacek. Quest reward: 200 and 20
