Pt. 1
| After completing The Time Traveler's Wife Pt. 2
|
|
*SHRIEK!* I missed my anniversary! I've got to travel back in time and remind myself!
|
|
Isn't that EXACTLY what Future You said not to do?
|
|
I've never liked Future Me. One day there'll be something about this guy I just didn't trust back now.
|
|
I suppose there's no harm in helping you try something impossible like time travel. I've got texts on advanced astrophysics, cosmology--
|
|
OR we could binge watch movies about time travel. "Time-Priest", "Bad Physicists", and "Medical Intern Strange" are personal favorites.
|
| Task: "Make Homer Marathon Time Travel Movies". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 6 seconds.
|
|
Hollywood has taught me a valuable lesson: thinking about how time travel works is hard, so let's just make it up as we go! C'mon, gang!

Pt. 2
| After completing Pt. 1
|
|
Beware, Homer Simpson! You tamper with the very fabric of spacetime!
|
|
|
Yeah. So?
|
|
Well... most people would consider that bad. With the PARADOXES and the BUTTERFLY EFFECTS and the OH, NOW I'M MY OWN DAD.
|
|
Shut up and help me find my time traveling toaster. I think it's packed with the rest of the Halloween junk.
|
|
A time traveling toaster? That's the most preposterous thing I've ever heard! Now, my time traveling panini press on the other hand...
|
| Task: "Make Homer Travel Back in Time". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 6 seconds.
|
| After starting the job if Act 1 is active
|
|
I've gone back in time millions of years! I can tell I'm still in Springfield, though.
|
|
The dinosaurs here all talk about how they're going to leave this provincial backwater one day, but you know they never will.
|
| After starting the job if Act 2 is active
|
|
Uh-oh. I appear to have overshot my time travel -- I'm in Ancient Egypt!
|
|
Which, conveniently and for the purposes of this update, sat in the same location as modern-day Springfield!
|
| After starting the job if Act 3 is active
|
|
Water everywhere... a storyline that seems hastily thrown-together and nonsensical... oh no, I'm in Waterworld!!!
|
|
Or, I've traveled back to pirate times. Oh please let it be murderous pirates and not Tin Cup with gills...
|
| After finishing the task
|
|
What gives?! I wanted to go back just to my anniversary, not centuries ago!
|
|
I'll remember your minor quibble when I'm dancing around, clad only in my Nobel Prize medal.

Pt. 3
| After completing Pt. 2
|
|
|
I think I'll trust my time traveling needs to my faithful old toaster. Here's your panini press back, Mr. Mad Scientist.
|
|
|
I am not MAD, I simply-- What in glayvin have you done to my invention?!
|
|
|
Made a gloopy sandwich in it. And for the record, you do sound pretty mad right now.
|
|
Dad, are you sure you should be meddling with time?
|
|
|
Probably not. Still gonna, though.
|
| Task: "Make Homer Meddle With Time". The job takes place at Homer's Workbench and takes 6 seconds.
|
|
|
I collected so much cool stuff in the past, but none of it survived the journey back. What gives, stupid spacetime continuum?
|
|
|
The only material objects that survive the journey are clothes. Because the alternative is too horrible to consider.
|
| If Act 2 is active
|
|
|
What the heck is papyri?
|
|
|
It's the plural of papyrus.
|
|
|
What the heck is papyrus?! I'm just gonna collect these pieces of paper instead.
|
| After finishing the task
|
|
Uh, Dad, I think you forgot to close the time door behind you!

Pt. 4
| After completing Buried in Time Pt. 2
|
|
|
Hey, Frink, you fixed your panini press! It has sort of a lame "steampunk" vibe now.
|
|
Yes, well, I had a lot of brass gauges sitting around. Purely accidental, of course.
|
|
|
Then why are you wearing aviator goggles?
|
|
|
All right, I admit it. I... I still think steampunk is cool. Anyway, I've altered the press to collect errant tachyons released by your temporal meddling.
|
|
Ha ha! I'm sorry, but the nerd thinks a briefly-interesting subgenre from decades ago is still cool!
|
| Task: "Place the Panini Press".
|
|
|
Schrödinger's cat! What was that gigantic explosion?
|
|
Your stupid sandwich machine keeps breaking every time a sandwich gets made on it.
|
|
|
It's not for cooking on you imbecile!
|
|
Look! The tachyon emission blasted everyone back to their rightful time period.
|
|
|
Once again, I have, through stupendous carelessness, solved all the problems I created with my inconceivable incompetence. You. Are. Welcome.

Pt. 5
| After completing Chaos Theory
|
|
Homer, perhaps you would consider donating these ancient artifacts to found a Springsonian History Museum?
|
|
|
Hmmm... there's a lot of money in the museum game...
|
|
Well, no. It would be purely non-profit.
|
|
|
Hmmm... there's a lot of money in the non-profit game...
|
|
No. There's none.
|
|
|
Hmmm... there's a lot in none...
|
| Task: "Build the Springsonian Museum". It takes 6 seconds.
|
|
Hey pally, those are some nice specimens. I could "disappear" a few things from the ol' exhibits here. We could make some good "money".
|
|
|
Isn't that stealing?
|
|
It ain't "stealing" so long as you use air quotes.
|
|
Oh, right. I "understand".
|

Pt. 6
| After completing Pt. 5
|
|
|
Marge, I'm sorry I forgot our anniversary. But this time I've got a solid excuse, involving time travel.
|
|
Do I know you, sir?
|
|
I'm Artie Ziff! And I would like to know what you are saying to this woman, Mrs. Artie Ziff!
|
|
|
Oh, no! I've messed up the spacetime continuum, and now Marge is married to Artie Ziff!
|
|
"Spacetime continuum"? I think you mean the "when-where thingamabob", which is what we call it in THIS thingamabob, thank you very much.
|
| Task: "Make Homer Check if He's Disappeared From Photos". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 4 hours.
|
|
|
Dad? What are you doing home at this hour?
|
|
|
Yeah, you don't get off work at the donut factory until seven.
|
|
|
Okay, I may have lost Marge, but at least I still have my kids and what sounds like a way better job. But wait -- who's your mother?
|
|
Hello, my tubby hubby!
|
|
Augh! Vegas Marge!
