The Rocket's Red Glare Redux is a questline from the 4th July 2014 Event featuring Rex Banner

Quests[]

If you have All-American Apu, you need to make him do the Apu jobs instead. (Note: I'm doing this quest and all the jobs for Apu are with the All-American Apu costume, contrary to this statement someone else edited in.  Maybe if you don't have the costume then regular Apu can do the jobs, and that's what the editor meant.  Can some check on this and correct this entry please?)

The Rocket's Red Glare Redux Pt. 1[]

Character Dialogue
Rex Banner Icon "Citizens of Springfield, fear not!"
Rex Banner Icon "No longer will airborne displays of fireworks-related Technicolor splendor haunt your nights!"
Lisa Worried Icon "Federal agent Rex Banner!?"
Rex Banner Icon "Here to stop the flow of illegal fireworks into Springfield and bring the Bottle Rocket Barons to their knees."
Lisa Icon "Well, that'll be nice. They're kind of a nuisance."
Rex Banner Angry Icon "Nuisance? You call sporadic incidents of mild to moderate noise pollution a NUISANCE?"
Rex Banner Angry Icon "They're the greatest threat to the American way of life since loitering!"
Rex Banner Icon "And nothing will stop me from ending this scourge!"
Rex Banner Icon "Unless it is my debilitating addiction to refined sugars!"

The Rocket's Red Glare Redux Pt. 2[]

Character Dialogue
Apu Happy Icon "Sales of fireworks are up 3,000%! This holiday is proving most profitable!"
Rex Banner Icon "I've traced the fireworks to this Kwik-E-Mart. Time to see what we can see..."
Apu Surprised Icon "Great Ganesh! Super-cop Rex Banner is hot on my trail! I'd better hide the evidence."

The Rocket's Red Glare Redux Pt. 3[]

Character Dialogue
Rex Banner Icon "Reach for the sky, Nahasapeemapetilon!"
Rex Banner Icon "I know you're the gunpowder-drunk mastermind of this fireworks racket!"
Rex Banner Icon "Come clean -- you're the one they call the Rocket Rajah. The Bengal Blaster. Pyrotechnic ‘Pu."
Apu Angry Icon "I see. Because of my ethnicity and name, you assume this person must be me. That, sir, is profiling!"
Rex Banner Icon "I'm an old-timey cop. Profiling is ninety percent of my skill set."
Rex Banner Icon "Come clean -- you're the one they call the Rocket Rajah. The Bengal Blaster. Pyrotechnic ‘Pu."

The Rocket's Red Glare Redux Pt. 4[]

Character Dialogue
Homer Icon "Release Apu, Rex Banner!"

"I've discovered the true identity of the fireworks smuggler -- Ned Flanders!
Arrest him and interrogate him for hours and hours!"

Rex Banner Icon "Let's go, boys!"
Homer Icon "And... he's gone. Woo-hoo! Come on, everybody -- the coast is clear! Let's buy some boom!"

The Rocket's Red Glare Redux Pt. 5[]

Character Dialogue
Rex Banner Icon "Hands where I can see them, Apu! I'm taking you in!"
Lisa Icon "Wait! That man is innocent!"

"I've just found an old town law from 1803 which expressly permits “the sale and detonation of pyrotechnic devices for one month following June 4.”"

Rex Banner Icon "What's so special about the Fourth of June?"
Lisa Icon "June 4th was King George III of England's birthday."

"We've always been America's cowards."

Rex Banner Icon "Well, at least there's one thing this town is still good for."

Paranoid Android Redux[]

Character Dialogue
Homer Icon "Rex Banner!"

"I've again discovered a nefarious smuggling ring -- far too intricate to detail here -- that is headed by our own Ned Flanders!"
"Arrest Ned Flanders at once! And interrogate him for a really, really long time!"
"But not in a scary, painful, illegal way like the CIA does."
"Just, you know, keep him out of my hair while football's on."

Rex Banner Icon "Will do, patriotic citizen!"

The Rocket's Red Glare Redux Pt. 6[]

Homer Icon "Woo-hoo!"

"I haven't blown anything up in a couple of hours, this was starting to feel like a Canada Day celebration..."
