Dialogue[edit]

Pt. 1[edit]

After obtaining Disapproving Squirrel
Marge - Scared Homer, what happened to your head?
Homer - Hurt Oh, it's nothing. Maggie dropped a bowling ball on my head.
Marge - Surprised What?!
Homer - Hurt It was an accident -- it rolled off the shelf. I mean, Maggie had to take it out of the bag and push it, but I blame the laws of gravity.
Marge - Serious This was no accident! Bringing all these cartoon characters to life is a bad influence on the kids!
Professor Frink Don't you worry, Marge. I'm way ahead of you on this and I have the perfect solution.
Marge - Serious You're going to get rid of the cartoons you brought to life?
Professor Frink Don't be SILLY. I'm going to bring another character to life: Disapproving Squirrel!
Task: "Make Disapproving Squirrel Silently Judge Springfielders". The job takes place at Visitable Homes and takes 60 minutes.
Marge See? Disapproving Squirrel's not very funny, or friendly, but she proves you don't have to be violent just because you're a cartoon.
Marge And she kept everyone on their best behavior.
Professor Frink Yes, in many ways, the judgmental stare is even more cutting than an axe to the cabeza, as it were.
Disapproving Squirrel ...!
Professor Frink See what I mean?

After tapping on Disapproving Squirrel's exclamation mark
Itchy - Happy Hey Scratchy, now that I've fed your eyeballs to that bird, you're... EAGLEY blind!
Disapproving Squirrel Don't do that!
Itchy - Confused But that's in the script.
Scratchy - No Eyes Believe me I don't like it either, but we're professionals.
Disapproving Squirrel - Annoyed No, no, no! No more violence!
Itchy - Annoyed Step aside, squirrel, we've got a very important job to do. Now where's my mallet so I can play croquet with Scratchy's eyes.
Task: "Make Disapproving Squirrel Picket Disapprovingly". The job takes 4 hours.
Itchy - Annoyed You ruined the scene!
Scratchy - No Eyes And you scared away the eagle. Now I'm never gonna find my eyes!
Disapproving Squirrel - Annoyed No! No violence!

Pt. 3[edit]

After completing Pt. 2
Lisa - Annoyed *groans* These new Itchy & Scratchy cartoons are boring! Where's Itchy?!
Marge That Disapproving Squirrel isn't that bad, is she?
Lisa - Annoyed She's worse than Poochie! All she does is scold Scratchy to balance his check book and clean the lint out of his dryer...
Lisa - Confused Why does a cat have a dryer?!
Bart - Laughing I don't know, it is kind of funny to see her boss Scratchy around like that.
Marge - Happy See? She doesn't ruin the show.
Task: "Make Disapproving Squirrel Ruin the Itchy & Scratchy Show". The job takes place at Krustylu Studios or a Brown House and takes 4 hours.
After starting the job
Disapproving Squirrel Your sock drawer is a mess, Scratchy!
Scratchy - Surprised I don't wear socks.
Disapproving Squirrel Before you go out to play, I want you to iron and fold every pair, twice.
Disapproving Squirrel - Happy A well-starched pair of socks is a step in the right direction.
Scratchy - Happy *laughs* ...That was a cue for me to laugh at your joke, right?
Disapproving Squirrel - Annoyed Less laughing, more starching!
After finishing the task
Lisa - Sad Well, that didn't take long. How many times can one show get ruined?
Bart It was funny when she made him iron his socks at least.
Marge - Surprised *gasp* I was hoping a good role model would help you shape up, not turn you into a completely different person.
Marge - Serious That squirrel has got to go before you turn into *shudder* the Flanders kids!

Pt. 4[edit]

After completing Pt. 3
Quimby Order! We've had a number of complaints about this "Disapproving Squirrel". All from the same person: Marge Simpson.
Marge - Serious I don't like the way that squirrel is making my kids act!
Helen Lovejoy - Yay Really now Marge, I would have thought you'd be in favor of Disapproving Squirrel. The two of you could practically be twins.
Marge - Surprised What? We have nothing in common.
Homer You do sorta have the same hair, and make the same face when you scold me.
Disapproving Squirrel - Annoyed Don't do that!
Homer - Laughing *chuckles* See? I almost kissed the squirrel thinking it was you! Do it again!
Task: "Make Disapproving Squirrel Imitate Marge". The job takes place at the Town Hall or Simpson House and takes 4 hours.
Quimby - Mocking Yes, I can, er, really see the resemblance. I don't know whose vote to solicit.
Artie Ziff - Happy Is that squirrel single??
Dr. Hibbert - Happy *holds up x-rays* Even the bone structure is the same!
Marge - Serious That squirrel and I are nothing alike! I'll prove it to you.
Quest reward: Cash100 and XP10

Pt. 5[edit]

After tapping on Disapproving Squirrel's exclamation mark
Disapproving Squirrel - Annoyed Don't do that! Don't do that!
Marge - Angry No YOU don't do that! Don't tell me what to do!
Marge - Sad Is this really what everyone thinks I'm like when I give them sensible advice?
Disapproving Squirrel - Annoyed Don't do that!
Marge - Serious I am NOT some ridiculous, killjoy nag. And my hair looks nothing like yours!
Disapproving Squirrel - Happy Your hair is the only thing about you I don't disapprove of.
Marge - Angry That does it! I won't be mocked by some demented cartoon. Get out! GET OUT!
Task: "Make Disapproving Squirrel Get Chased Away by Marge". The job takes 8 hours.
Disapproving Squirrel - Annoyed I don't need any of you! You're all beneath me, you don't even deserve my scorn.
Selma Now there's a girl after my own heart. *smoker's cough*
Patty - Happy I agree. How would you like a job over at the DMV? Best place in town to judge all the nuts.
