|
|
Hey, Bart! Want to have a game of one-on-one dodgeball?
|
|
Sure, get rid of Milhouse so you can't make some lucky catch off his face.
|
|
|
I make face catches like that in my sleep.
|
|
Face catches are weak!
|
|
|
Not when they're coming off your face!
|
| Task: "Make Erik Take on Bart". The job takes place at the Dodgeball Court and takes 3 hours.
|
|
Hey Kid! I was just passing by when I happened to look up from my champagne bottle and saw some of your sweet moves.
|
|
|
I've been planning to put together a sports team, and I think you could be just the ticket to kicking it off.
|
|
A dodgeball team?
|
|
|
Is that what this is? Well, as long as it's got an international circuit to promote that's all that matters.

|
|
|
Okay, Mr. Sweet. What's the first item on our trip to the top?
|
|
|
First is the training montage. Run around town practicing your skills. Set it to some music so everyone is inspired by how hard you're working.
|
|
|
Um, okay. But people don't really practice dodgeball outside of a court.
|
|
|
Everything can be practiced outside. Now show me some hustle!
|
| Task: "Make Erik Practice Dodgeball". The job takes 4 hours.
|
|
|
Maybe this isn't so bad. *hits dodgeball*
|
|
*smack*
|
|
Hey!
|
|
Uh, sorry! I'll throw it this way.
|
|
Did someone get the license plate of that truck?
|
|
|
This is going to be a long training…

| After tapping on Erik's exclamation mark
|
|
|
What's next in my rise to the top?
|
|
|
Gotta build excitement for your debut.
|
|
|
We need press all over town to reach an audience of your peers.
|
|
|
But my peers are all kids. They don't get all over town.
|
|
|
Hmm, true. I guess we'll have to just double-down on the adult press!
|
|
|
Do adults even watch news anymore?
|
|
|
The ones with lots of money to throw around at sport events do!
|
Task: "Make Erik Get Interviewed by School Paper". The job takes place at Lisa, requires Springfield Elementary, and takes 4 hours.
Task: "Make Erik Get Interviewed by Channel 6 News". The job takes place at Channel 6 or a Brown House and takes 4 hours.
|
|
|
I think that went well. Here, have a drink. This will keep your energy up.
|
|
|
*drinks* Thanks, Mr. Sweet.
|
|
Whew, that's got a dodgeball-size kick.
|
|
What was in that?

|
| After tapping on Erik's exclamation mark
|
|
|
All-right-already-already-all-right! Let's dodge some ball! Dodge ball! Dodge ball! Dodge that ball!
|
|
|
I could dodge the sun right now. Dodge-spin-dodge-jump. Dodge ball!
|
|
|
Erik, have you been taking performance enhancing substances?
|
|
|
Drugs? I-don't-take-drugs. What-makes-you-think-I-take-drugs? Drugs are for slugs. Did I make that up? I'm awesome!
|
|
|
You're kind of wired and talking nonsense.
|
Task: "Make Erik Blow Off Some Energy". The job takes place at Springfield Elementary and takes 2 hours.
Task: "Make Lisa Test the Drink Cup". The job takes place at the Police Station and takes 8 hours.
|
|
Here's your test, Lisa. Let's see what we have here.
|
|
I hate reading science. Tri…methyl..xan…
|
|
Oh God, the kid's on meth! Just remember, I called it first!
|
|
Let me see that.
|
|
Caffeine. The words you can't pronounce are the chemical formula of caffeine.
|

|
|
| After tapping on Erik's exclamation mark
|
|
Mr. Sweet? I think I need another drink. I'm really crashing here.
|
|
|
Don't do it, Erik! Mr. Sweet has been feeding you caffeine!
|
|
|
But that's a banned substance in elementary dodgeball competition!
|
|
Aye it is, and such a violation comes with extreme penalties. Bring him to the whipping stone!
|
|
|
Too harsh, Willie. The penalty is a one-game suspension.
|
|
I never get to use me whipping stone.
|
| Task: "Make Erik Sit Out a Game". The job takes place at Springfield Elementary and takes 4 hours.
|
|
|
My professional dodgeball career is over.
|
|
|
Don't sweat it. Some football kid will get caught throwing a game to cover his dad's gambling addiction and they'll forget all about this.
|
|
|
I guess that'll give me time to work on my game. I wonder if Bart's up for another?
