|
That meeting was maddening.
|
|
|
Where is Cookie Kwan? Where is Hubert Wong and his parents?
|
|
|
Where are Tetsuo and Kaneda, my best friends that everyone in Springfield's Asian-American community know and love?
|
|
|
TETSUO! KANEDA!
|
|
|
Breathe, Akira, and visualize mini trees.
|
|
|
If I focus on my bonsai, it will help me stay zen, and other Japanese-y things. Anime.

|
|
Aw, it's like a bushy baby Groot. Baby Groot – heh heh – time for a branch cut.
|
|
|
This adorable little plant is totally taking my mind off the clear racial imbalance in how people return to this town.
|
|
|
Who needs equal treatment of many when I can work on me?
|

|
|
Re-potting a bonsai gives it fresh nutrients and helps it remain strong.
|
|
|
It's as if when you live in a small, contained place, you need to change the old soil - kick up the environment - to keep yourself from wilting and dying.
|
|
|
Could that somehow be a metaphor for life? Springfield equals "small place."
|
|
|
The stagnant lack of diversity equals "old soil." And what would keep us from wilting and dying? Ah...
|
|
|
No, Akira! Bonsai is your time to let go.
|
|
|
Bury your ambitions way down inside where they can be forgotten and never disturb you again.
|
|
|
So yeah... uh... cute tree description something something pot?
|
| Task: "Make Akira Re-pot Bonsai". The job takes place at The Happy Sumo and takes 12 hours.

|
|
|
Ah ha! A perfect bonsai to plant. No one else in Springfield has these unique and mad skills.
|
|
|
This is why we need to increase diversity. Think of all the useful and impressive stereotypes that can't be given expression.
|
|
|
Who is to do manis and pedis? Who does math moderately better than others? Who dry cleans clothes using ancient secrets?
|
|
|
By placing this tree into the ground, I let an idea take root. Expanding the representation of cultures adds value to all communities.
|
|
|
Also, that I rock at bonsai.
|
| Task: "Place Bonsai" (x3).
|
|
You know, your skill isn't that special. Any bozo like me can just buy your precious crooked shrub with donuts.
|
|
|
But to be able to do without donuts what you need donuts to do, that is a special skill indeed.
|
|
What are you trying to say, Yoda?
|
|
|
Having me do it saves you donuts.
|
|
Donuts I can use on other things? Ah, you are wise! Can I call you sensei?
|
|
|
Okay. But only if the term has nothing to do with my race, and only applies because of my incredible intelligence.
|
|
Sure. Whatever works for you.
