"Springfield's Got Talent?" 232
"The first few flakes have started to fall on what predictions have labelled "the storm of the century," and the residents of Springfield are starting to prepare for a long winter. The business owners are the most nervous, as the blizzard is threatening to close their stores during their holiday sales, and without that revenue, many aren't sure they'll be able to last through the season. Even the children aren't immune to the worry created by this storm, as Springfield Elementary is remaining steadfastly open. But as the storm intensifies, a mysterious figure has begun buying up every business in Springfield, and no one seems to know who they are. So, once again, it looks like it's up to Bart and Lisa to figure out who this person is, what they're planning to do, and how they can stop them from fulfilling their nefarious plans, which would be much easier if they'd just close the school already. Time is running out as the snow gets deeper, and if they're not careful, they'll find themselves at the mercy of A Christmas Peril."

Gil Promo[edit]

After tapping on Gil's Widow's Peak icon
Gil - Selling Ol' Gil's got a mountain of a deal for you this year, yes he does.
Gil - Happy Feast your eyes on the Widow's Peak, the highest mountain in all of Springfield.
Lisa No it isn't. Widow's Peak is the second highest mountain in Springfield.
Gil - Selling Yes, but it's the highest mountain that you can actually place on the mountain range. Whatever that means.
Gil - Sad Just take it off my hands, would you? It's covered in snow and I can't feel my fingers any more.

If the offer is accepted
Gil - Happy I knew you were a cool cat. Now you can have a cool goat on a cool mountain, too!
If the offer is rejected
