Dialogue[]

A Rail of One City Pt. 1[]

Character Dialogue
Homer Confused Icon "This town is filthy! We built all these dumpsters and garbage cans, but no way to empty them."
Apu Icon "I used to lure in customer with the smell of hot dogs."
Apu Sad Icon "But the stench of week-old decaying meat... it just can't compete with the smell of all this trash."
Cletus Icon "I used to be able to find my house on account of all the trash piled up in front of it. But now that's every house."
Cletus Sad Icon "I got no idea which one is mine. I've been wandering around on the streets for weeks."
Homer Sad Icon "We all have, Cletus."
Lisa Icon "We need to build the town dump."
Homer Icon "Good idea, sweetie. Is there room right next to Flander's house?"

A Rail of One City Pt. 2[]

Character Dialogue
Homer Icon "Okay, we've got a place to put our trash. Now we just have to get it there."
Lisa Icon "What about a garbage truck?"
Homer Icon "No. Even if we built one it wouldn't move. What we need are garbage men."
Quimby Icon "According to the government roster that's, er-ah, you."
Homer Confused Icon "Me?"
Quimby Icon "Yes, you're the town's Sanitation Commissioner."
Homer Icon "I vaguely remember being that but didn't I lose that job, or give it back or something in the end?"
Quimby Angry Icon "No, it ended with you destroying the whole town and us having to rebuild it."
Homer Thoughtful Icon "That DOES sound familiar."

A Rail of One City Pt. 3[]

Start[]

Character Dialogue
Lyle Lanley Icon "Excuse me, good people! But have you ever thought about building a monorail in this town?"
Lisa Angry Icon "We have and we did. You sold it to us and it bankrupted our town."
Lyle Lanley Icon "Really? Well then, where is it?"
Lisa Embarrassed Icon "Nowhere now. The town got destroyed and we had to rebuild it."
Homer Icon "Twice now apparently!"
Lyle Lanley Icon "Well maybe I can convince you to buy another, with an elaborate song and dance!"
Homer Woohoo Icon "Woo-hoo!"
Quimby Icon "Not so fast, Sanitation Commissioner. That dump still needs stuff dumped in it."
Homer Sad Icon "Woo-hoo."
Quimby Icon "Everyone else, join us for the monorail musical! It looks like it might rain, though, so let's do it inside."

End[]

Character Dialogue
Lisa Surprised Icon "That was amazing! The songs, the choreography, all those celebrity cameos..."
Lenny Surprised Icon "A hologram of Dr. Dre sang a duet with Dr. Dre!"
Carl Icon "Sorry you missed it, Homer. And anyone else who couldn't see inside Town Hall."
Homer Sad Icon "I stabbed my foot with the pointy stick while picking trash."
If the player doesn't have the Town Hall, Carl's dialogue will show Brown House

A Rail of One City Pt. 4[]

Character Dialogue
Quimby Icon "It's decided. We'll raise the money to build a monorail!"
Homer Icon "Great, I can help fundraise! I'm really good at getting people to part with their money. Just ask Sky Finger."
Quimby Icon "I suppose you COULD join us. Or..."

Same as it Ever Was[]

Character Dialogue
Lyle Lanley Icon "Good work, people of Springfield! You've raised enough money to purchase the materials you need to build a monorail."
Lyle Lanley Icon "And put it all in an envelope, which you've handed to me."
Lyle Lanley Icon "Now for one last performance!"
Lenny Surprised Icon "He disappeared!"
Carl Icon "Aw, and I was really excited for him to be a permanent part of our town."
Gil Icon "So when Ol' Gil shows up trying to sell you stuff, you can't chase me out of town fast enough."
Gil Icon "But this guy takes off with all your money and you wish he was permanent."
Gil Icon "Ol' Gil wants a permanent home! What about Ol' Gil?"
Homer Serious Icon "You want me to take care of this guy?"
Quimby Icon "No Homer, we've got it."

A Rail of One City Pt. 5[]

Character Dialogue
Homer Angry Icon "That's it! This cool monorail story is going on, with people appearing and disappearing, and all I'm doing is picking up trash!"
Homer Angry Icon "If I have to pick up one more rivet-"
Lisa Icon "Wait, did you say rivet? Those were on the list of supplies we needed to build the monorail."
Lisa Icon "I bet if we collected enough junk around town, we could get all the supplies we needed for the monorail."
Homer Icon "So you're saying that picking up trash is now important to the story?"
Quimby Icon "Yes, and you're the Sanitation Commissioner. Is there anything we can do in exchange for your help?"
Homer Icon "Yes. Make me the monorail conductor."
Homer Icon "I'm tired of being a glorified garbage man. I want to be a glorified bus driver!"

A Rail of One City Pt. 6[]

Start[]

Character Dialogue
Lisa Icon "Now that we've got the materials for the monorail, we just need someone to oversee its construction."
Homer Sarcastic Icon "Don't look at me. I've already got two jobs."
Professor Frink Icon "Ahem-glaven... as the closest thing this town has to an engineer, I would be happy to--"
Sebastian Cobb Icon "Did someone call for an engineer?"
Professor Frink Angry Icon "What? No! I'm the egghead around here. What kind of engineer even are you anyway?"
Sebastian Cobb Icon "A monorail construction engineer."
Professor Frink Sad Icon "*sigh* Hoyvin."
Sebastian Cobb Icon "I can get your monorail operational. But first I'm going to need more finely-honed monorail parts."
Lisa Embarrassed Icon "Um... so far we've just been collecting junk."
Sebastian Cobb Icon "That should work too."
Hand in resources at the Project Board and help Sebastian Cobb build the Monorail!

A Rail of One City Pt. 7[]

Character Dialogue
Lisa Icon "Hey guys, what if we sorted our trash first? It could really improve what we’re doing for the environment."
Helen Lovejoy Boo Icon "BOO!!!"
Sideshow Mel Boo Icon "BOO!!!"
Lenny Boo Icon "BOO!!!"
Sebastian Cobb Icon "Hmm, the girl does have a point."
Sebastian Cobb Icon "Separated-out metal could be quickly and easily manufactured into components. And that would save us money."
Helen Lovejoy Yay Icon "YAY!!!"
Sideshow Mel Yay Icon "YAY!!!"
Lenny Yay Icon "YAY!!!"
Agnes Icon "Now that's the kind of green this town can get behind!"
Lisa Annoyed Icon "Whatever."

A Rail of One City Pt. 8[]

Character Dialogue
Homer Icon "This recycling thing isn't so hard. Let's see... batteries are cans full of battery acid."
Homer Icon "And motor oil is pretty much just liquid plastic."
Homer Icon "And these glowing radioactive plutonium rods from the nuclear plant are... hmm, let's call them paper."
Lisa Shouting Icon "Dad! You can't put that stuff in the recycling. Or the trash, for that matter."
Homer Icon "Then what I am supposed to do with it?"
