In the Lukewarm of the Twilight Pt. 1

Ralph: Uncle Lou the cop, will you tell me a story for my school report? You’re my favorite policeman ever!
Wiggum: What about me, Ralph?
Ralph: You’re not even my favorite Daddy ever. That’s Babar!
Wiggum: ...
Lou: How about I tell you the story of my toughest case? The disappearance of Lewis Clark.
Wiggum: Ooh, I never heard this one!
Lou: *sighs* You were there, Chief.

Task: Collect Police Badges
Task: Make Wiggum Pretend He Remembers
Time: 4h
Location: Town Hall

On job start:
Wiggum: Oh right, Lewis! I can’t believe it took me four hours to remember that case. It was just last week!
Lou: The chief and I were playing Narco Polo in the evidence room when Bart Simpson came to report his friend missing.
Bart: I came to report a missing person. Also to turn myself in for a bunch of stuff.

On job end:
Lou: I think there’s more to this case than meets the eye. But it's gonna take some real police work to solve it.
Wiggum: Is that your way of saying I should come along, or I shouldn’t?
Lou: You're safer where I can see you. *puts on shades* Let’s roll.

Wiggum: Springfield Elementary. Great thinking, Lou. In order to find this kid, we’re gonna have to go undercover… as children.
Lou: That is not why we’re here. Chew on this rawhide bone K9 Officer Scraps left in the squad car. I need to talk to my informant.
Wiggum: Ooh, there’s still some flavor on this thing.
Janey: Well well well, if it isn’t Lou the Cop. I thought I told you I don’t squeal on school grounds. Get lost.
Wiggum: This is your informant?
Lou: She’s my ex-girlfriend’s kid. I used to get truancy tips from her.
Janey: Until you broke up with my mom! You know she uses your favorite T-shirt to mop the floor now.
Lou: Not my 2 Live Crew! That was vintage! Argh. Look kid, what do I have to do to get some info from you?
Janey: *hands over jump rope* This dutch isn’t gonna double itself.

Task: Collect Police Badges
Task: Make Lou and Wiggum Double Dutch
Time: 4h
Location: Springfield Elementary
Requires: Wiggum
Task: Place Crowd of Bullies

Wiggum: *panting* Oh God. I can’t breathe.
Lou: We were just turning the ropes, Chief. Alright, Janey. What do you know about this Lewis kid?
Janey: He was one of Bart’s friends years ago, prominent in all his adventures.
Janey: And then one day, kids like Martin and Nelson were bumped up on Bart’s friend roster, and it was a wrap for ol’ Lewis.
Lou: What do you mean?
Janey: He’d crack a joke or two. But he didn’t keep it up. He didn’t deliver the goods.
Lou: What goods?
Janey: I’m talkin’ punchlines, copper. Catchphrases! Zazz! Lucky for me, Lisa needs girlfriends or I’d be toast too, see.
Lou: What are you going on about, kid?
Janey: You’re pretty dim, gumshoe. *stubs out lollipop* I’ve said too much.
Janey: If you really wanna get the scoop, check out tonight’s meeting at the community center.

Lou: They're having some sort of meeting. Now when we go in there, try not to be conspicuous.
Wiggum: I don’t know the meaning of the word, Lou! My vocabulary is very limited.

Chester Dupree: Hmph. If it isn’t one of Springfield’s regularly recurring residents. Must be nice, officer.
Wiggum: It is, actually. You should try it.
Chester Dupree: Oh, I’ve been trying! I was introduced in the online game years ago as Bernice’s brother… but I’ve never made it to the “show”. I wonder if it’s because I’m black?
Wiggum: Yeesh. Why does it always have to be about race. Or sex. Or class. Or religion. Or corrupt policing practices. Or…
Lou: What do you know about the disappearance of Lewis Clark?
Chester Dupree: I don’t know where that kid is. I’m trying to keep my dang self from disappearing. Good luck, officers. You’re gonna need it to crack this case.
Gary: Excuse me, officers. I think I may have cracked your case.
Wiggum: Hey, thanks for wishing us that luck, Chester! That guy's alright.

Gary: While working on my thesis for Prof. Frink’s alternate dimension portal theory class, I invented a portal to an alternate dimension. In theory.
Wiggum: Speak English, Heisenberg!
Lou: Let me guess. You finally watched Breaking Bad.
Wiggum: How’d you know?
Gary: Look, instead of telling you, it’s easier to just show you. Follow me to my lab!

Task: Collect Police Badges
Task: Make Lou and Wiggum Do What the Nerd Said
Time: 4h
Location: Springfield University or Brown House
Requires: Wiggum

Gary: Alright, just step through this portal. You’re going to go to a place that few Springfielders ever come back from.
Wiggum: Whoa! That was the most amazing visual experience. I'm glad we got to see it and not just read about it after it happened.
Lou: Where are we? This place looks familiar… but different. Is that Herman’s Antiques? I haven’t seen that place in years.
Wiggum: And there's Maison Derriere. And is that Dr. Marvin Monroe? What's going on here?
Lou: This must be where all of forgotten Springfield goes. The people and places that we meet once, laugh at, then never see again.
Wiggum: Do you think that erotic bakery is here? I really wish we still had that place.

Wiggum: Okay, let’s indiscriminately grab children by the collar until we find this kid.
Lou: There he is!
Wiggum: Aw, I hadn’t even grabbed one yet.
Lou: Lewis, are you alright? The town’s been worried sick about you. Kind of.
Lewis Clark: I don’t know what happened. One second I was sitting two rows behind Milhouse, and the next thing I know, I ended up here.
Lou: Well, you can come with us back to Springfield.
Lewis Clark: I don’t want to. I like it here. I get to eat free chocolate cake at “Zzerts”, and play with my best friend, Richard.
Wiggum: Who?
Lewis Clark: Grey-haired kid. Wears a blue jacket. We used to always be next to Bart.
Wiggum: Doesn’t ring a bell AT ALL.

Task: Collect Police Badges
Task: Make Lou and Wiggum Bring Lewis Back to Springfield
Time: 4h
Location: Frink's Lab or Brown House
Requires: Wiggum

Lou: Welcome back to Springfield, kid. How’s it feel to be home?
Lewis Clark: S’okay. But I better get some freakin’ jokes around this place or I’m going over to Bob’s Burgers.
Bart: You found him! Oh, Lewis, I missed you so much, kind of. Let’s go work on some catchphrases or funny background business for you so this never happens again.
Wiggum: I’m proud of you, Lou. You solved your first case!
Lou: What are you talking about? I’ve solved tons of cases around here.
Wiggum: Oh right. I was thinking about the other cop. What’s his name? Stringy hair. Overbite. He’s always standing next to you.
Lou: Eddie! Crap. We better get back in that alternate dimension thingy and go pick him up.
Wiggum: Let’s roll!

  • I thought the title was a very good play on the phrases; by the cool of the night, and in the heat of the of day. The EA writers still seem to have kept wit and wisdom alive.
  • It put me in the mind of the excellent Sidney Poiter in In The Heat Of The Night.
    I'm sure I spelt his name wrong.
    Bump.
  • 2 tasks at the Community Center, 1 task at Springfield U and 1 task at Frink's Lab. Nice variety of task locations for this act.
  • Yeah, when I've been getting characters out I'm all over the place, it is refreshing.
