Lost track of quest line

It seems I lost track of the main Halloween quest line "The Ghost in the Machine-based App". Last thing I remember was part 8 and after that I was supposed to get a prompt from Homer and "Get Possessed by Bont and Live Another Day" but I honestly do not remember getting it. Now Homer walks around and not giving me any prompts. Lisa not giving any prompts either.

In other words is there a way to find out what part of this quest line am I on? Oh..and I do not have the icon for this quest in the task book so I definitely finished some part (whatever it might be) :cry:


Perhaps Lisa needs to research at the Library first? Either that it depends when you got Strongman Homer. If the first ! prompt was to start his questline, and you started it, he could have triggered it if that was the part you were at (but instead you immediately put him on the Strongman quest). So probably when you see what Lisa does, you may be on that research task first before Homer gets possessed again.

I'm at that exact spot (only cut 3-4 hours on the Gypsy house) and Lisa has been trick-or-treating non-stop. So it will occur, just have to wait and see.
  • I am at the same spot and now Lisa was trick or treating and now has completely disappeared out of my game and I'm stuck on what to do next as I'm aiming to try and get the freak show tent

    If she is taskless, go to Krustyland (if you have it). If she appears she doesn't have a task. Return to Springfield and just keep searching, she'll show up.

    2) If she is trick or treating, go near your housing areas (as that's where they tend to mingle) and keep going through. If you have farms, she might be walking through houses. You might be able to find her if you go into edit mode, and disable buildings and decorations. That will "hide" everything but characters. She should turn up at some point. When she's done trick-or-treating you'll get the thumbs up too, so that will help.
