Dialogue

Pt. 1

Between March 5, 2024 and March 13, 2024 The Court will come to order. Your honor, I can't find any precedent for this kind of proceeding. The precedent is that this is my courtroom, I'm a lifetime appointee, and your only other choice is to buy me a Winnebago. Ready to proceed, your honor. Are the plaintiffs ready? Yes, your honor. Amen to that. I'm just excited to be on this side of the courtroom for a change. And are the defendants ready? We sure are. And hopefully you'll remember this performance in the future when I eventually come up for trial as an adult. Task: "Collect Helium Tanks" (x115). Task: "Watch Clown Performances" (x5).

If that's what you're teaching in that school, I'm all in! Blessed be the mirthmakers! Thank you, Sophie. One down and two to go. All those Hebrew classes sure paid off. Mom called them "Sunday School" but...yeah. Happy to help, Dad. *hugs her father* Quest reward: 100 and 10 Krusty Water Tower

Pt. 2

After completing Pt. 1 Our next performer is Dieter Wolfcastle. What gives, Clown? That is but a very small car painted like a police cruiser. Where is my son? Give it a minute, McBain. Look, the door's opening and a kid dressed as a clown version of Officer Lou is getting out. That is not my son. And do not call me McBain. But there's more! A clown Officer Eddie and a bunch of other clown cops whose names I never learned. Where is Dieter? He could not possibly fit in that puny car! Oh wait, there he is! He is the last and fattest cop of all! Is he supposed to be me? Free donuts for all! *throws donuts at the crowd* He is me! That's fantastic!

I suppose you think that was terribly clever, don't you, Krusty? Well, I'm the last plaintiff you've got to entertain, and your only performer left is Bart Simpson and the last person on earth who could entertain me is Bart Simpson. The defense calls as our next — and last — performer: Bart Simpson. *spit take* Courtroom spit take? And they call me a clown. Quest reward: 100 and 10 Elephant

Pt. 3

After completing Pt. 2 Krusty, I gotta tell you, Principal Skinner is not my biggest fan. Relax, kid, just do what we taught you at school. But you didn't teach me anything. I didn't? But you were such an enthusiastic pisher. Hey...you weren't just there to make time with my daughter, were you? That was maybe ten percent of it. The other ninety-nine percent... I can see we didn't teach you any math. Your school was just a big excuse to keep me from going to regular school. Hey...that gives me an idea. Task: "Collect Helium Tanks" (x155).

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury... Mr. Simpson, there is no jury. Oh, yeah. Ladies and gentlemen of the audience... Mr. Simpson, it's an audience of one. This is going to be good. And by "good" I mean "not good". For you. Very well. *clears throat* I would like to call as my first and only witness... Principal Seymour Skinner! Now, just a minute. I'm not on trial here! It looks to me like you are. Quest reward: 100 and 10 1

Pt. 4

After completing Pt. 3 Principal Skinner, has it occurred to you that, in the event that Krusty's clowning school shuts down, students like me will have to return to Springfield Elementary? Hmm. No, I hadn't thought of that. So...do you STILL want to shut the school down? Yes. Yes I do. Whuh? Why do you hate this clown school so much? Judge, do I have to answer that? Well, you're on the witness stand and that's usually what I tell people on the witness stand to do, so...yes. *sigh* If you must know... Task: "Collect Helium Tanks" (x155). Task: "Watch Clown Performances" (x5). If Skinner is owned: Task: "Make Skinner Confess".

The job takes place at the Court House, International Court of Justice, Town Hall, or a Visitable Home and takes 4 hours. Now where was I? You were about to tell us why you hate the clown school so much. Sorry, I lost my train of thought in the few seconds of our time but the hours or maybe days of game-play time. Yeah, yeah, we all freeze during quest time. Now get to the point, Seymour. The truth is...I applied to clown college right out of high school. It's all I'd ever wanted to do. But they denied me and that's the reason I joined the army and went to 'Nam. It won't make up for the horrible war crimes you've seen or committed, but would you be interested in teaching at my school? Hey! Your Honor, I thought I was the one asking the questions here. Sorry, I was doing the Times crossword puzzle. Uh...overruled! Quest reward: 100 and 10 Clown Fire Truck

Pt. 5

After completing Pt. 4 Krusty, I'd love to teach at your school. Does that mean you're not suing me anymore? Of course not. Case dismissed! Hey everybody, cue "I'm Alright" by Kenny Loggins. We're all gonna get clowned! *loud music and dancing* *record scratch* This school just got lame and I don't get that reference. I'm dropping out. Oh well. Nice working with ya, kid. *resumes music and dancing* Task: "Collect Helium Tanks" (x195). Task: "Watch Clown Performances" (x5). If Skinner is owned: Task: "Make Skinner Report to Clown School".
