Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

We’ve been electrified with the new little episode tie-in in Springfield this week! With the new Premium items just added to our menu, it may be overwhelming trying to decide whether to buy it or to pass on it.

In addition a fun little questline will popup to get us all ready for the episode. It’s got a few twists and turns…and of course a little cliffhanger. So let’s take a look at the questlines that will popup during the Musk Episode Tie-In…
