Dialogue

Intro

After starting the update Here comes the holiday season! Anyone in the mood for a pre-Thanksgiving flight of three turkeys? Or we can just round it up to an even baker's dozen. Dad, please! Just thinking about this upcoming meat massacre gives me serious PTVD. Lisa, you know how I feel about acronyms: I.T.M.S. I Don't Get Them. It's Pre-Thanksgiving Vegetarian Depression. And it's very real, even if it's not recognized by the DSM. What did I just say about acronyms?! Task: "Make Lisa Escape Her PTVD". The job takes place at Springfield Elementary and takes 6 seconds. After starting the job Hmm... the school computer lab is unlocked. Maybe the reasonable and calming influence of the internet is what I need right now. Well, if it isn't my little protégé. The zero to my one one zero one one. Quinn?! What are you doing here? Using the school computers to mask my infiltration of the Department of Homeland... uh, I mean nothing. You got really far into that sentence before changing your mind. After finishing the task Every year I feel helpless. What will it take to get people to stop eating so much meat? You could give them artificial incentives and a false sense of accomplishment? Pssh, who would fall for that? Ever heard of gamification? It's a great way to get people to do what you want them to. Like waterboarding, if waterboarding cost 99 cents each time. Message Quinn Hopper is here to help you achieve your fake goal of making up fake goals! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 1

After completing the Intro Just a couple more lines of code... and done! My meat alternative app "Tofun" is ready for release! I'd question how quickly you turned that app around, but I have no real concept of time between when we talk. All you need now are a couple of early adopter suckers to beta test it. Who would want to test a half-baked app for free? Free half-baked apps? Are we talking potato skins or just jalapeno poppers? You know what? Surprise me. Gamification! Don't make me spell it out... because it's probably not a word. Just tell people they get extra Activist Badges for "early exclusive" use. Task: "Make Lisa Promote Tofun". The job takes place at Springfield Elementary and takes 3 hours. Task: "Make Springfielders Beta Test Tofun" (x5). The jobs take place at Springfield Elementary and take 3 hours. Task: "Earn Activist Badges" (x150). My day one installs are up to ten! That's twice as many downloads as my last app – Jazz Findr. Ten installs?! Lisa, the Meat Council will get word of this. And you know Quimby and Wiggum are in Big Sausage's pocket, ever since they filled their pockets with big sausages! It's only a few users – I doubt they'll care. I think it's safe to say this is the end of this quest! Quest reward: 100 and 10 Meat Propaganda Billboard

Pt. 2

After completing Pt. 1 That billboard springs up just a few days after my app? Something's fishy. You better hope not! The Fish Lobby makes the Meat Council look like small potatoes. And nobody takes the Guild of Small Potatoes seriously. You sure know a lot about political interest groups, Dad. I used to be a lobbyist. Until I found out that didn't just mean stealing luggage from the entrances of fancy hotels. Task: "Make Springfielders Compete on Tofun" (x5). The jobs take place at an Eatery or Brown House and take 3 hours. Task: "Make Lisa Update Tofun". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 3 hours. Task: "Earn Activist Badges" (x325). Why are you walking around with two phones? Because I can only reap so much enjoyment from topping the Tofun leaderboards, so I'm simultaneously competing in the meat-eating app Beefbettr. A meat-eating game? The Meat Council isn't playing around! Somebody get me my carpal tunnel brace – they just messed with the wrong prodigy app developer. Hmm, that sounded cooler in my head. Quest reward: 100 and 10 Programmer Lisa

Pt. 3

After completing Pt. 2 Quinn, I think I need to switch up my tactics. But it feels like something is holding me back. It's your conscience, kid. App development is a dog-eat-dog world. As a vegetarian I prefer to call it a tempeh-eat-tempeh world. But you're right. Gamification was only a half-measure. I need to hack the planet!... Now that's the cool line I was looking for! Hacking, webmasters, firewalls – I love all the great words we made up to describe typing really fast for a long period of time. Task: "Make Programmer Lisa Hack Propaganda". The job takes place at the Meat Propaganda Billboard and takes 4 hours. Task: "Earn Activist Badges" (x325). Quest reward: 100 and 10 Slaughterhouse Express

Pt. 4

After completing Pt. 3 Come check out our new all-meat aisle! We have every cut of meat from head to tail... as well as extra heads and tails. Hurry in, we're not slashing prices, but we are slashing Best By, Sell By, and Use By dates! Why is the town suddenly flooded with meat products? Mmm, meat flood. It's the feud between those two silly phone games – it's making everyone hungry. Maybe I bit off more than I can chew. It's time to call in backup. A name that strikes fear into the hearts of meat lovers, and people who don't like to be bothered on the sidewalk. Task: "Make Programmer Lisa Call P.E.T.A. for Backup". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 3 hours. Task: "Earn Activist Badges" (x325). That was useless. They just preached to me over the phone for four hours and then sent me a complimentary can of fur protest red paint. Plus a copy of their straight-to-DVD movie "Never Meat Me In St. Louis". We interrupt this little girl's tantrum to bring you breaking news: the app Tofun may be selling your user data. To whom? Russia? We don't know, but this reporter is brave enough to guess wildly. So Russia it is! This segment was brought to you by the renovated Slaughterhouse Restaurant. Now with new and improved blood gutters, and a permanent on-site paramedic! Quest reward: 100 and 10 Slaughterhouse Restaurant and Sir Loin-A-Lot

Pt. 5

After completing Pt. 4 Somehow, whatever I do, the Meat Council's always one step ahead of me. Check your source code, sweetie. I think you might have a bug. Or maybe even a rat. That's why the hacker life can be a lonely one. Imagine having no friends, your only pals are inanimate objects. Yeah, I can hardly imagine... Task: "Make Programmer Lisa Inspect Source Code". The job takes place at Benches and takes 3 hours. Task: "Make Gluttons Take the Sir Loin-A-Lot Challenge" (x3). The jobs take place at the Slaughterhouse Restaurant and take 4 hours. Task: "Earn Activist Badges" (x325). After starting the jobs What?! I connected Tofun to P.E.T.A.'s alt-veggie database, but these logs suggest they've been sending my data straight to the Meat Council! An organization that promotes veganism sending user data to a multinational meat conglomerate? A tale as old as time. After finishing the tasks So my best efforts to help the world just ended up making everything worse? Hey, look on the bright side. Which is? I'm sorry, is there more to that expression? I wish I could help, sweetie, but I've got reservations at the Slaughterhouse Restaurant. I hear they provide fresh towels for your meat sweats. Message You've been awarded Homer and Bart's "You Don't Win Friends With Salad" animated job! Quest reward: 200 and 20 Homer and Bart's "You Don't Win Friends With Salad" animated job
