Dialogue

Pt. 1

Between September 3, 2024 and September 18, 2024 *throws a knife at Future Bart* Bart, duck! Ugh! "Duck!" A knife thrower's greatest enemy. Future Bob, you're still using the same old knife? It's sad when people stop growing. The stiletto is timeless! Okay, boomer. You shan't duck your fate forever. I shall return! *runs away* We have to stop that guy. I can only duck, duck, duck so many times...before my goose is cooked. Future Bart, if we knew more about the world you come from, we might be able to formulate a strategy.

After completing Pt. 1 Please Lisa, this has to stop. AI's are for writing apologies and summing up long emails, not bringing people back from the future. I'm sorry, Professor Frink.

It's still doing that?! Quest reward: 100 and 10 Future Mystery Box Token

Pt. 4

After completing Pt. 3 Future me, we need to get all the future people back to the future before future Sideshow Bob kills my future brother. Future. *chuckles* I remember when I was your age. Everything seemed so important. It was always life or death. Because this is! The strands of time have become tangled. If you continue to pull at them, you'll create a knot. And you can't untie a knot. Yes, you can. Ooh, Nelson should be getting home soon. I need to get dinner started. What?! Is this part of a bigger plan? Are you being Zen or something? No, she's being a good housewife. Can I help you chop the carrots, Future Lisa? That'd be great, Past Marge. Woe is present me. Task: "Collect AR Glasses" (x155). Task: "Make Lisa Head Back to the Lab". The job takes place at Frink's Lab, Frink's House, Springfield Robotics Laboratory, Skyberdine Systems, Screaming Monkey Medical Research Center, or Visitable Home and takes 4 hours. Stop! You mustn't alter the spacetime rifts, or I will cease to exist! I don't see a problem with that. It will also destroy everyone else that came from the future, including future you! I'm not sure I'd mind that either. What about your future brother? Okay, look. I don't want future anyone to be destroyed. Can't you and Future Bart just work out your issues? Of course. I was planning to have a tete-a-tete with him here. At a spooky, abandoned slaughterhouse? Yes. A tete-a-tete mano-a-mano. Ugh, so pedantic. You know, I'm glad future me found happiness rather than studying a bunch of romance languages. Quest reward: 100 and 10 Ana Gram's Spooky Abandoned Slaughterhouse

Pt. 5

After completing Pt. 4 Hi, Professor Frink. Oh no, it's Lisa. Are you here to screw up the world by using my AI machine again? No, we're here to destroy it. Future me? What are you doing here? I thought you were spending the evening in with your husband, Future Nelson. He's a bounty hunter — he goes to sleep early. I'm here to stop the future war, and return peace to the world! Oh, thank God! I may be a housewife in the future, but I'm still me! We have to destroy the AI Machine. It will trap Bart and Sideshow in this world, which will prevent them from waging war in the future. But won't it trap you here as well? Yeah, but with my hubby. And you and I can hang out. You could come to dinner at Future Nelson and my place on Sundays. I'd like that. Now let's destroy this AI machine! Task: "Collect AR Glasses" (x195). Task: "Make Lisa Destroy the AI Machine". The job takes place at Frink's Lab, Frink's House, Springfield Robotics Laboratory, Skyberdine Systems, Screaming Monkey Medical Research Center, or Visitable Home and takes 4 hours. *singing* Daisy, daisy / Give me your answer do. We already did a 2001 parody when Maggie came into the game. Just die already. *death rattle* No!!! My AI!!! This project I've worked on for years is dead! I'm sorry, Professor. But things end. You'll have to pick yourself up and move on. Yes, move on to our newest flavor... Cherry Vanilla Buzz Cola! What the hell is that? We destroyed the AI, but it isn't dead. It's morphed into something else. Something that it perhaps always was. Or always will be. That was ominous. Although I prefer cryptic warnings to product placement ads. Amen to that. Now let's celebrate with a refreshing glass of Buzz Cola! Quest reward: 100 and 10 Future Lisa
