Heads, Shoulders, Knees, and D'ohs Pt. 1
Homer starts
Homer: Bart, what did I tell you about peeing on the lawn?
Bart: Not to do it, because you might step in it when YOU'RE peeing there.
Homer: Exactly. So how did these plants start growing out here?
Homer: There’s no way my pee has enough nutrients to sustain life -- it’s mostly beer and wing sauce.
Task: Place Pod Patch
Homer: So how do you explain the plants?
Bart: Ask Lisa.
Homer: She’s been peeing out here too?!
Bart: No, dummy -- she’s an expert on plants. They're like her boyfriends.
Quest reward: $100 and 10 XP
Heads, Shoulders, Knees, and D'ohs Pt. 2
Lisa starts
Lisa: Hm... this is really strange.
Homer: It’s not strange! The dog pees out here all the time and no one gives him guff!
Lisa: First of all, ew. And secondly, I was talking about the plants.
Lisa: Since we've been out here, they've doubled in size. They're huge!
Homer: Hey, lay off -- those plants are just big-boned, like me!
Task: Make Lisa Research Pod Patch at the Library (4h, Springfield Library)
Quest reward: $100 and 10 XP
Heads, Shoulders, Knees, and D'ohs Pt. 3
Marge starts
Marge: What did you discover, Lisa?
Lisa: That there’s nothing at the library I couldn't have just looked up on my phone.
Marge: Okay... then what did you learn on your phone?
Lisa: That Janey and Wendell made their relationship official on social media.
Pod Patch: *muffled sounds*
Lisa: Did that plant just try to talk? I need a plant expert who can relate to speaking unintelligibly and living in filth...

Task: Make Lisa Enlist Willie's Help (4h, Willie's Shack, Willie)
Quest reward: $100 and 10 XP
Heads, Shoulders, Knees, and D'ohs Pt. 4
Willie starts
Willie: All right, lass, where do you want me to spray the pesticide?
Lisa: No! These plants could be intelligent beings, Willie!
Willie: Aye, so you're sayin’ we have an ethical responsibility to nurture them.
Lisa: Absolutely!
Lisa: Also, a sentient plant would earn me at least an A-minus at the Science Fair...
Task: Make Lisa Care for Pod Patch (8h, Pod Patch)
Task: Make Willie Care for Pod Patch (8h, Pod Patch)
Skinner: I must say, Lisa, forcing the Science Fair judging committee to come to your backyard is highly unorthodox.
Pod Patch: Give her an A.
Skinner: ...but then again, so is a talking, sentient plant! A-plus!
Lisa: Hooray!
Quest reward: $100 and 10 XP
Heads, Shoulders, Knees, and D'ohs Pt. 5
Willie starts
Willie: Well, you won the Science Fair. And more importantly, you scared the bejesus out of Skinner. What now?
Lisa: Now we tap the plants and see if they're ripe...
Task: Tap the Pod Patch
Willie: Heads up -- there’s heads inside!
Lisa: I was right, it IS sentient!
Lisa: And aggressive!
Willie: Stand back, Lisa! You got your precious A, but now it’s time for Willie to kick some A!
Willie: ACCCHHHH!!!

Quest reward: $200 and 20 XP
Smoke 'Em If You Xylem Pt. 1
Xylem starts
Xylem: Xylem to Mission Control: I have landed on Earth.
Mission Control: Very good. How are you holding up after the trip?
Xylem: It’s tough being uprooted from my home, but I hope I can really blossom here and leaf a mark.
Mission Control: I see you have picked up on Earthlings’ laziest form of humor: puns.
Xylem: Indeed. I will now make contact with the plants of Earth. Over and sprout.
Task: Make Xylem Activate Plant Sense (12h)
On job starts:
Xylem: Oh my Pod, the plants of Earth are all screaming in pain!

Xylem: ...
Xylem: On my planet, the sound of crickets is the ultimate compliment.
Quest reward: $100 and 10 XP
Smoke 'Em If You Xylem Pt. 2
Xylem starts
Xylem: This once mighty oak has been mutilated into something called “Mid-Century Modern Furniture.”
Xylem: And these poor roses were slaughtered by a human and given to his female partner as tribute for failing to compliment her new garments!
Xylem: So many plants screaming in pain!
Xylem: Wait a minute... this one actually seems pretty chill.
Task: Make Xylem Investigate Chill Flora (24h, Greeneries)
Xylem: You're so at ease with being harvested and burned.

Quest reward: $100 and 10 XP
Smoke 'Em If You Xylem Pt. 3
Xylem starts
Xylem: How can you just lie down and take this horrible treatment?
Hemp: Lying down is great! You should try it some time.
Xylem: But aren't you mad? Humans are using you for their own means.
Hemp: *laughs* They're not using ME. When they ingest me, I control THEM.
Hemp: They'll do whatever I want -- sit on their couch, sit in a chair. Anything!
Xylem: I never thought about it like that.
Hemp: No, man, that’s your problem -- you think too much.
Hemp: For the first time in your life, you need to truly veg out.
Task: Make Xylem Try Local Customs (8h)
Quest reward: $100 and 10 XP
Smoke 'Em If You Xylem Pt. 4
Xylem starts
Xylem: I get it now. There’s no me or them, there’s only US.
Xylem: Because when you think about it, the universe is one continuous--
Hemp: Whoa, whoa. Hold up. You're starting to get a little too introspective.
Xylem: Is that bad?
Hemp: No, you just need to balance it out with a little unchecked aggression.
Xylem: How do I do that?
Hemp: Let me introduce you to my friends, Hops and Barley.
Task: Make Xylem Get Aggressive With Hops and Barley (8h, Brown House)
Quest reward: $100 and 10 XP
Smoke 'Em If You Xylem Pt. 5
Xylem starts
Xylem: Ugh, what happened last night?
Mission Control: What happened is you called us in the middle of the night and told us how you REALLY felt!
Xylem: What did I say?
Mission Control: You said you loved us and missed us very much.
Mission Control: ...which on our planet is the worst thing you could say!
Xylem: I forgot how confusing things are back home. It's simpler here.
Mission Control: If you love Earth so much, maybe you should just stay there.
Task: Make Xylem Put Down Roots on Earth (24h, Brown House)
Quest reward: $200 and 20 XP
