Milhouse Why don't you just give me yours?
Jimbo That's a great idea! This is gonna be your best birthday party this week!
Bart Unbelievable. Milhouse is friends with Jimbo now? Every time I try to make him uncool, he ends up even cooler.
Database Excuse me, Superfriend, if you're done monologuing, it's your turn to roll the dodecahedron.
Bart *sigh* Okay here goes.
Database Gack! That's the icosahedron! Bart, get your head in the game!
Bart Look, the only reason I agreed to play Dungheaps and Doofuses with you guys is because you're the only ones left who can't get into Milhouse's dumb birthday parties.

The Van Houten Curse Pt. 4

After completing The Van Houten Curse Pt. :
Lisa Milhouse, I think we should stop hanging out.
Milhouse Why? Was it Nana?
Lisa No, I liked Nana. She had very strong pinching fingers. Much stronger than your other grandma's.
Lisa It's just that I realized that, just because other people think you're cool, doesn't mean I have to.
Milhouse I learned a lesson, too. That it isn't important what others think of me. Just what you think of me.
Lisa Oh, Milhouse, that's sweet.
Milhouse Sweet enough to change your mind about hanging out with me?
Lisa No. But sweet enough to make me pity you.
Milhouse I'll take that.

Task: Make Milhouse Cry and Run Home (4h, Van Houten House or Brown House)

Tapped Out Nana Sophie Mussolini Icon.png *shakes him* You could act like a Van Houten!
Milhouse Alright. I'll try to suck it up.
Tapped Out Nana Sophie Mussolini Icon.png No! Cry! Cry like a bambino! Get used to it. This is the Van Houten Curse.
Milhouse What is?
Tapped Out Nana Sophie Mussolini Icon.png All Van Houtens have a short time when they become popular. How do you think your Papa won over my Luann?
Milhouse I thought he could crush beer cans on his forehead.
Tapped Out Nana Sophie Mussolini Icon.png And remember — the Van Houten popularity never comes back after it leaves. Ever.
Milhouse Never?
Tapped Out Nana Sophie Mussolini Icon.png NEVER.
Tapped Out Nana Sophie Mussolini Icon.png Now, come. I'm going to get you the best gelato Springfield's Little Italy has to offer. Not that good, but I have a coupon. Buy ninety-eight...

The Van Houten Curse Pt. 5

After completing The Van Houten Curse Pt. :
Janey Did you guys see Milhouse crying earlier?
Sherri and Terri Yeah, Lisa broke up with him.
Janey So, does that make Lisa even more popular now?
Sherri and Terri Maybe if Milhouse was still cool. But since he cried like a baby, he definitely isn't cool anymore.
Sherri and Terri So, by the transitive properties of coolness, Lisa's just Lisa again.
Janey I don't think I follow...
Sherri and Terri Me neither. Let's just say they're both uncool now. C'mon, let's go jump rope!
Milhouse Hey Bart, let's go to my house. There may be some Squishee syrup left over from the last of my parties.
Bart That sounds great! But you know what sounds even greater? We go to MY house.
Task: Collect Pasta Bowls [x190]
Task: Make Bart Invite Milhouse to His House (4h, Simpson House or Brown House)
Task: Make Milhouse Play at Bart's House (4h, Simpson House or Brown House)
Bart So how come your Nana is so cool but she's still related to you?
Milhouse She's not a Van Houten. She's a Mussolini.
Bart Oh. That's a name to be proud of.
Milhouse No one is cooler than an authentic Italian. I wonder if I inherited anything from that side of the family.
Bart I could shoot you with the Go-Go Ray and see if you dance the tarantella.
Milhouse Worth a try!

Milhouse When I learned that there's a Van Houten Curse.
Bart There's a Van Houten Curse?
