Pt. 1

Between January 4, 2022 and January 12, 2022 Hello, I'm Kent Brockman and welcome to the 1st annual "Santa Sleigh Race"! Proudly brought to you by the folks at Gnome-In-The-Home Dome. You're talking into MY camera. Dangit, that was a perfect take. Look who's here! Ho-ho-ho! *sways precariously* Whoa-whoa-whoa! Santa! It's so good to see you up and about! Herb, I heard you lost a limb in my defense. I couldn't ask for a better friend. Santa, you look a little wobbly there. Maybe you should sit back down. Yeah, me and Homer have got the present-delivering covered, so take a load off. All you need to do is grant a couple crazy Christmas gifts we promised to get for people. Unlimited gifts cannot be done, Bart. What about my waterslide into my infinity pool? It all depends on the requirements of the building code...but consider it done! Task: "Collect Stockings" (x125).

Pt. 2

After completing Pt. 1 Marge, Lisa, I have the results back from the lab on that object that was in Santa's head. So what was it? It turns out it was a piece of a very old Christmas ornament. Let me see that... Actually, I'm supposed to turn this over to the police. Go ahead, Doc. Give it to these two crime solvers. They're handling the investigation. *gasp* This is the missing piece of Herb's Christmas ornament! He'll be so happy that I can complete it for him. Speaking of...where is Herb? Uh-oh. Your mother's got that look in her eye. She's either just decided I'm going on another diet, or she's suddenly solved the case. *crosses fingers* Or both. Aah! I know what happened. No!

Pt. 3

After completing Pt. 2 Hounds, follow that Christmas tree scent! Are we sure about this? Herb really doesn't seem like the Santa-attacking type. That's what Christmas trees always want you to think... I'll explain it all when we get there. Smithers, who let these people in my sleigh? I'm sorry, sir. I thought when you yelled "everyone in the bone sleigh!" you meant...everyone. I'm not sure why I'm here. Just following instructions. The Nutcracker's with me. Speaking of, walnut anyone?

Pt. 4

After completing Pt. 3 Hands in the air!! Err, I mean – sticks in the air! You're under arrest! For what crime? I thought you'd never ask. For the crime of — uh, yeah...for what crime, Marge? The attack on Santa! Preposterous! Santa is my best friend, plus I was seriously maimed in the attack. That's just what you wanted everyone to think. And then when Hibbert found a piece of your ornament in Santa's head, I knew it was you who did it. But that lodged into him when he fell. That does sound pretty plausible, Marge. You just wait. All along Lisa was right. It's not about seeing what happens, it's about observing. Ugh, more Sherlock stuff. And only a mother who is used to washing blood out of her son's clothes could figure out this clue. My Bartliness helped solve the attack on Santa! Sweet! But Mom, the blood pattern at the crime scene all matched Herb's recounting of the attack. Yes, it did, didn't it. But that wasn't the only thing at the crime scene, was it? We forgot to analyze... The sap pattern! It was all Mary's idea! Arrest her! I was her unwitting pawn. Shut your sap hole, Herb. Cuff 'em, Chief! Yeah, what Marge said! Oh wait, I'm supposed to do it.

I've had a long day. You were working with Manacek on our case? He was MY Watson. It was a crisp day in early December. Mary Tannenbaum had reached the end of her rope. The rope that she dreamed of hanging herself with if she had to produce another romantic comedy. On that same day, amidst a blizzard thousands of miles away at The North Pole, Herb Tannenbaum was tired of living in Santa's shadow. He wanted that glory for himself. But the days were long, and the heartbreak longer... Come on, Manacek, get to the point... Mary is Herb's niece. Her mother is married to his brother Grover. It's all very complicated. And this is where things get fun... Herb wanted to get rid of Santa so he could take over and get all the glory each Christmas, while his niece Mary wanted a juicy exclusive to jump start her fledgling career as a true crime podcaster/filmmaker. So Herb told Mary his plan to take out Santa. And not only did she do nothing to stop him, she tried to lead us on a wild goose chase. But there was only one goose to chase: Herb. After hitting Santa over the head, he cut off his own limb so he wouldn't be considered a suspect. Right so far, Herb? Kind of seems obvious looking back at it. I wish I'd just investigated this from the start. Tell me it's not true, Herb. It's true! All of it. And we would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for this housewife and her meddling kid and that 1970s Manacek guy with all his smooth lines! Looks like the only topper you're getting for your Christmas Tree is an orange jumpsuit. Wow, Mom. I guess you really were the Sherlock after all. You can be Sherlock. I finally googled Irene Adler and she rocks! Quest reward: 100 and 10 The Rich Texan Sleigh + animated job
