Dialogue[edit]

Pt. 1[edit]

After tapping on Spiro's exclamation mark
Meathook - Annoyed Ramrod, when you sink the cue ball on the break then it's game over!
Ramrod - Annoyed I'm playing by official billiards rules, not Meathook rules!
Meathook - Angry Bar fight!
Ramrod - Angry *breaks beer bottle*
Spiro - Annoyed That's enough! I told you guys only one bar fight per day...and you've already had three!
Meathook - Angry One of those wasn't a fight. It was a brawl.
Ramrod - Angry No, it was a fight!
Meathook - Angry It was a brawl!
Ramrod - Angry Bar fight!
Meathook - Angry Bar brawl!
Spiro - Surprised *front door opens* Rita LaFleur? Man, you're a sight for sore eyes.
Rita LaFleur - Happy Well, if it isn't Spiro Papadapaconstantikasgianopolopodopotopolis.
Rita LaFleur - Happy How have the years treated you, my old Greek friend?
Spiro - Sad Rita, you shouldn't be here. This place isn't the same classy lounge you used to sing at. It's become something worse than a dive bar but better than a Cabo-style Cantina...it's now a biker bar.
Rita LaFleur Don't worry Spiro, I can handle a few wild hogs.
Meathook - Angry *slams Ramrod against the counter* I'll gut you like a gutter rat!
Rita LaFleur I'm here because I'm coming out of retirement and back onto the stage. So I thought...why don't we make this joint the hottest venue in town again?
Spiro - Sad I don't know. I sort of have a good thing going here. A regular clientele that keeps me in business.
Ramrod - Angry *hits Meathook with pool cue*
Meathook - Angry *throws Ramrod through window*
Spiro Okay, maybe you're right. But if we're doing this, then we need Abe Simpson. You two sure made sweet music together.
Rita LaFleur - Happy We also made sweet love.
Spiro I always suspected that and now you've confirmed it.

Spiro - Happy Look Abe, just picture it...the return of Spiro's as a classy lounge. The marquee will read Rita LaFleur and Abe Simpson.
Grampa - Naked Happy Hmm, I do like a prominent marquee. Will it be prominent?
Spiro - Happy It'll be the biggest marquee west of the Mississippi.
Grampa - Naked Happy Then you've got yourself a deal.
Rita LaFleur - Happy I'm so excited, Abe!
Old Jewish Man Okay, okay, it's my turn for my bath, so can you guys get going? Unless you want to stay and watch. I don't care. It's up to you.

Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Spiro's exclamation mark
Grampa - Surprised Spiro, what the heck happened to this place? It used to be classy.
Grampa - Annoyed I mean, how are we supposed to play on a stage with a metal cage around it?
Spiro Oh, you'll learn to love the cage. Especially when the crowd gets rowdy.
Grampa - Serious Come on, Spiro! You gotta class this place up before a dame like Rita takes the stage.
Spiro - Happy Hmm, what if we turned the basement downstairs into a speakeasy? That way I can keep the biker bar upstairs, and then downstairs can be the classiest joint in Springfield.
Spiro - Happy We'll call it...Spiro's Gyros.
Rita LaFleur - Annoyed Spiro's Gyros?
Spiro - Annoyed Look, not that many words rhyme with Spiro. Plus, nobody will suspect a kebab place as a speakeasy.
Grampa As long as there's a secret password to get into the speakeasy, I'm in.
Spiro How about "pineapple"?
Rita LaFleur Too obvious.
Grampa - Innocent What if the password is "password"?
Spiro - Happy That's perfect! No one would guess that!

Rita LaFleur - Happy These new lyrics are great, Abe.
Spiro - Happy Wow, you guys sound like no time has passed.
Grampa Well, I still need to hit the oxygen tank in between each verse.
Rita LaFleur - Sad Yeah, and I wish I didn't need an electric-lift to climb onto the piano.
Spiro - Happy Look, I think we're ready to take this live. We just need to get the word out. Not too out, mind you, since we want our speakeasy to be simultaneously hoppin' but also very difficult to find and get into.
Spiro - Annoyed I can't afford marketing, so the only thing to do is to exploit Springfield's children to get the word out.
Grampa I'm pretty sure I can ask my grandson to help out. Being a kid, he probably knows tons of 'em!

Pt. 3[edit]

After tapping on Spiro's exclamation mark
Homer - Annoyed Dad, for the last time: you can't live here.
Grampa - Annoyed I'm not trying to live here, you idiot. I'm here to talk to Bart.
Homer - Happy Oh, thank God. Because you living here would have sucked. Big time.
Grampa - Sad You know, I can hear everything you're saying — I'm right here.
Homer - Confused Are you sure? Because in between everything you say, you stare off into the distance for a couple minutes.
Grampa - Teary I was dancin' under the moonlight with my favorite gal, Eva Braun. And now because of your interruption, she ditched me for that good-for-nothing Hitler!
Homer - Furious Bart, your Grampa's here to talk to you!
Homer - Annoyed And hurry up because each word that comes out of his mouth scares me more and more about getting older.
Bart How's it hangin', Gramps?
Grampa Since you represent the Springfield Kids Union, I want you to get all the kids to help me promote this speakeasy I'm headlining.
Bart - Confused Whoa, that's a lot of information to unpack. Speakeasy? Headlining?
Grampa - Annoyed What are you, a parrot?
Bart - Smug Look, if you want my youngsters working for you, you're gonna have to meet our demands.
Grampa Okay. Spiro owns the bar. I'll send him to come work out the details with you.
Spiro What do you need, kid?
Bart You're a union shop now, you hear? First off, the bullies now represent all your protection needs.
Spiro It's a biker bar. I've got a gang. We really don't need—
Bart Second, the dweebs'll be covering your accounting. You need them to get creative with the books, you just say the word.
Spiro - Sad I don't have any books. I have a mostly empty cash register and a pile of bills. That's why I'm opening this speakeasy.
Bart And lastly, the youngster teamsters now handle your deliveries. It's a bit slower with everything coming via skateboard, but you'll get your goods fair and square.
Spiro - Annoyed *sigh* Alright, agreed. So you'll take care of marketing my new speakeasy?
Bart - Sneaky Generation Z has got it covered.
Task: "Make Youngsters Hand Out Spiro's Flyers" (x10). The jobs take place at Shops and take 4 hours.
Task: "Make Spiro Practice Making Classy Drinks". The job takes 60 minutes.

Spiro - Happy I can't believe it's opening night. I haven't been this nervous since meeting Yanni in an elevator.
Spiro - Happy Are you two ready?
Rita LaFleur I was born ready. How about you, Abe?
Grampa I have to take a zizz, but then I'll be ready.

Spiro - Surprised Whoa, you guys can't be here. Downstairs is Spiro's Gyros. Upstairs is Spiro's Heroes. We're trying to keep it classy, you understand.
Ramrod - Angry Can you believe this, Meathook? This guy thinks we're not classy.

Pt. 5[edit]

After tapping on Spiro's exclamation mark
Spiro Alright, look. How about we compromise? I re-open Spiro's Gyros in the speakeasy downstairs, but this time it's a classy biker lounge.
Meathook So what does that mean? Martinis and champagne but also beer nuts, pickled eggs, and crusty pool tables?
Spiro - Happy And gyros, that's important. But also the classy music. It's got to have classy music.
Ramrod - Happy Oh, I get it. You're thinking late '70s rock instead of early '80s rock?
Spiro No, I'm thinking live jazz on a stage.
