Tapped Out Level Walkthroughs: Level 57, Old Jewish Man in Old Gray Marriage

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Level 57 hit our Tapping Devices recently, and with it arrived a classic Simpsons character…Old Jewish Man!

While we’ve had the Turbo Tappin’ walkthrough up since the update first hit (you can view it here) I know many of you still love going back and reading old walkthroughs.  They’re great if you missed any of the dialogue while playing the level, or if you just want to know what to expect when you reach Level 57.  So for those that may have missed it (or for those of you that want to live it again)…I bring you the pants dropping excitement of Level 57…

Old Gray Marriage Pt. 1
Homer starts

Homer: Happy Birthday, Dad!
Grampa: Another year has passed? Hot diggity! Take that, Death, my team of doctors, that fortune teller, and all sense of reason!
Homer: And to celebrate we’re taking you someplace special.
Grampa: Last time you said that you took me to the Retirement Castle. And the time before that, you mugged me and left me in the woods.
Homer: I left you in the woods and THEN you got mugged. But this time, we’re really taking you out for real. With all that money we got from mugging you.
Grampa: So where are we going? The Gilded Truffle? El Chemistri?
Homer: Even better – a greasy roadside diner! Wait, did I say better? I meant much worse.

Homer: Look dad, it’s your friend… the crazy old guy.
Grampa: Who? Jasper Beardly? Hans Moleman?
Homer: No, the other one. The one who isn’t quite important enough to warrant having a name.
Grampa: Why! I haven’t seen you around for ages. I assumed you died!
Old Jewish Man: Technically I did… several times! But it takes more than a couple strokes to stop Ol’ What’s-My-Name!

Old Gray Marriage Pt. 2
Old Jewish Man starts

Old Jewish Man: I have to admit I’ve been lonely ever since my wife passed on. Sometimes I just walk around in her heels and pearls.
Grampa: To keep her memory alive?
Old Jewish Man: Sure, let’s go with that.
Grampa: Why don’t you move in with me? It’ll cure your loneliness, and I’ll have someone to wake me from my night terrors.

Old Gray Marriage Pt. 3
Homer starts

Old Jewish Man: This one’s to keep my heart working. This one’s to keep my liver functioning. These just keep me alive. Where are all my fun pills?
Homer: So Dad, for the rest of your birthday I thought I’d take you to the movies. Or just go to the movies myself using your senior discount and let you sit in the car.
Grampa: No can do, sonny, I’ve got plans tonight.
Old Jewish Man: Yeah, Abe and I are going to the drive-in. We’ll see a movie AND sit in a parked car.
Grampa: We’re a regular Odd Couple. He’s the old, deaf one with a bad memory.
Homer: And which are you?
Grampa: Huh? What are you talking about?
Old Jewish Man: I’ve got a pill to help rememberin’! And a pill to help spice things up in the bedroom! And a pill to help find the bedroom!

Old Gray Marriage Pt. 4
Old Jewish Man Starts

Old Jewish Man: I can’t find my Jammitin pills! Now I’ll never be able to hold hands with a woman while sitting in separate outdoor bathtubs.
Grampa: Keep your filthy fantasies to yourself! And even if you find your pills, where will you find a woman?
Old Jewish Man: Hey! I’ve got women following me around everywhere! Helping me in and out of chairs, wearing white, giving me pudding.
Grampa: Those are nurses, you idiot! And most of them are men.
Old Jewish Man: Oy, I miss having a wife — the conversation, the living together, the helping me out of bed at night to pee.
Grampa: I do all those things.
Old Jewish Man: And then there’s the tax break.
Grampa: Well, we don’t have that… but maybe we could. You and I could get married!
Old Jewish Man: What?! You mean like a gay marriage?
Grampa: Why not! Gay guys have been fakin’ straight marriages since the New Deal! We could be straight guys in a gay marriage!

Shotgun Wedding
Rev. Lovejoy starts

Rev. Lovejoy: Hm, the collection plate’s a little shallow this week.  And the church — more specifically the engine on the model train I keep in the basement of the church — is in need of repairs.  Maybe I can make a little extra scratch on the side… honeymoon-lighting.

Old Gray Marriage Pt. 5
Old Jewish Man Starts

Old Jewish Man: Now that we’re married, I suppose one of us should be the breadwinner.
Grampa: I’m banned from the Lucky Loaves bakery/casino since they caught me counting breadsticks, so it’ll have to be you.
Old Jewish Man: I guess I can dust off my old vaudeville act.  Probably should update a few references’ how old’s the Lindbergh baby these days?

Old Gray Marriage Pt. 6
Old Jewish Man starts

Old Jewish Man: These kids today are mean. The crowd pelted me with organic tomatoes. So plump and juicy, they really splat when they hit your face.
Grampa: Well, did you bring any home? We’re on a fixed income.
Old Jewish Man: No but I did get the hot volunteer’s phone number. She’s getting slip bars installed in her hot tub.
Grampa: What! I’m starting to think you aren’t taking this sham marriage seriously!
Old Jewish Man: I can’t live like this! I’m going to say something I never thought I’d say – I want a divorce cobunkulous.  Oy, I think that last bit might have been a stroke.

Old Gray Marriage Pt. 7
Old Jewish Man starts

Old Jewish Man: Abe! It’s been forever! How’s life been treating you?
Grampa: Can’t complain! Except that I’ve been a little lonely. And I have what the doctors are calling super shingles.
Old Jewish Man: I’m lonely myself. Got out of a relationship recently, I think.
Grampa: Maybe we should move in together.
Old Jewish Man: Or better yet, let’s get married! The tax breaks would be a real boon.
Grampa: What a great idea! I can’t believe I’ve never thought of it before. Those savings will help pay for these bills I’ve been getting from a divorce lawyer.

Old Jewish Man: It’s 5:00 AM. Of course we’ve had breakfast!  If you sleep away half the day, you’ll never have time for your afternoon and evening naps.

It’s a fun update to keep us busy tapping for a bit!

If you run the Level 57 questline from start to finish, without using donuts, it will take you 7 days and 13hrs to complete (of course you could save 48hrs off of that time by building Shotgun Pete’s and the Geriatric Medicine building ahead of their points in the questline) if you don’t have Jasper and and additional 4hrs if you have Jasper.

What do YOU think of Level 57?  Were you happy with the character choice?  How about the dialogue so far?  Thoughts on yet another diner in Springfield? Where have you placed the Overpass Diner in your Springfield?  Sound off in the comments below, you know we love hearing from you!
