In our silly lil game, we sometimes see things pop in that we have no clue as to their Origin. They seem familiar, but we just can’t pinpoint from where. So that is why we decided to make a fun lil reminder out of it. To let you know just Where Did THAT Come From?
This post I will be going over the Origin of Monsarno Research Campus and the items there. Introduced into our games with the Terwilliger Event, you know they gotta be involved somehow. But just how? How did all these items come into play? What do they have to do with the Terwilliger Family? And what on earth is up with that Statue? Let’s take a look at the TV Series to find out.
Season 25, Episode 13: The Man Who Grew Too Much
I did a recap on this Episode just after it went live, feel free to see more about it in it’s entirety HERE.
After an endless supplies of fresh veggies at the School, Lisa decided to investigate just where on earth they are coming from. (Hey… I thought that’s what I am doing). She learns they are GMO Veggies. She addresses the PTA of her concerns in a meeting. Lisa realizes… to her shock… they are actually GOOD for you. So she sets up a Buffet at the Simpsons so she can share them with everyone, courtesy of the Monsarno Corporation. 
Monsarno is so impressed, the family gets a trip to the Monsarno Research Campus to check out just how they are made. Homer seems impressed and asks if they have a Statue of the Founder he can stick a funny hat on…
…Outside of the Campus, Homer indeed finds a Statue and decides to add a lil something extra to the Joseph Monsarno Statue. A funny Striped Green Hat. He quickly jumps back in the Golf Cart and yells, “GO! GO! GO!” after placing it in the Statues head. In the background, you start to catch a glimpse of all those red brick, lots of windows Buildings. 
As they go a lil futher on, it pans out to the FULL SCALE of the Campus. You can see very easily the locations in our game now. Monsarno Research, Monsarno Library, and Monsarno Chimp Resources… and possibly… more to come? 
While they are there, their hostess wants them to see that they are NOT an evil Company. She then introduces them to the Chief Scientist… SIDESHOW BOB!!! AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!! 
He is still a Prisoner, just there as a volunteer for experiments. Monsarno liked his write ups on his tests so much, they made him a Scientist.
There you have it. Some items that appeared in a very recent Episode of the Simpsons, complete with Sideshow Bob, have now made it into our silly lil game. What do YOU think of the Building? What about the Statue? Does the hat on it now make sense? Let us know below.
