Once complete you’ll unlock Governor Bailey…
And she’s part of the Civil Servants Character Collection…
WDTCF: Her first appearance was “Two Cars in Every Garage and Three Eyes on Every Fish” S2,E4, BUT she’s really in this because (like most items in this event) she was in”Bart vs. Lisa vs. The Third Grade” S14 E3. In fact, her “Consider New State Flag” task is derived from that episode.
Fun Fact: According to the Big Book of Simpsons Knowledge, Governor Bailey is named after Mary Bailey from It’s A Wonderful Life, only the best movie ever made.
Governor Bailey does come with her own questline, here’s a look at it now…
Public Servant Pt. 1
Gov. Bailey starts
Governor Mary Bailey: Now that I’m, ahem, retired, I need to give back to my community. Perhaps with a 400-page ego boost – I mean book.
Burns: I can’t believe you beat me in that election. My qualifications were impeccable: I’m a rich, old, white man!
Governor Mary Bailey: Yet I won. Thanks to my positive message and convincing platform! And a three-eyed fish.

Governor Mary Bailey: Hello, fellow Springfielder! How can I improve your day? Anything you please!
Moe:…Anything?
Governor Mary Bailey: That’s not ominous at all.
Moe: I need you to help me launder-
Governor Mary Bailey: Laundry! Alright. A little demeaning but yes, I can do it.
Moe: You didn’t let me finish. Launder money. I need you to launder money.
Governor Mary Bailey: Oh, thank God, that’s much more up my alley. Plus I don’t have to get all damp.
Moe: You’ve clearly never been inside my bar.
Make Governor Mary Bailey Launder Money- 8hrs, Earns $275, 70xp
Public Servant Pt. 3
Gov. Bailey starts
Governor Mary Bailey: I can’t just sit around being a disgraced public figure forever. I need a new look!

Governor Mary Bailey:No, I said new look.
Hans Moleman: I said makeover.
Julio: Today is the first real day of your life.
Hans Moleman: It is? So late…
Lisa: Former Governor Bailey, I have some suggestions on how you can improve your image. Have you ever considered pairing a suit jacket with a… pant?
Governor Mary Bailey:Oh my! *faints*
Make Governor Mary Bailey Get Public Image Advice- 4hrs, Earns $175, 45xp
Public Servant Pt. 4
Gov. Bailey starts

Governor Mary Bailey: Money!
Make Governor Mary Bailey Give Money Away- 12hrs, Earns $475, 100xp
Public Servant Pt. 5
Gov. Bailey starts
Governor Mary Bailey: Your daughter really helped me turn things around. I can’t believe I’ve been wearing my skirt backwards all this time!
Marge: She inherited a good eye for style. You don’t just stumble upon as good a look as a strapless dress and pearls by accident.
Governor Mary Bailey: There’s an election coming up and Mr. Burns plans to run. And I’m the hip, youthful upstart who will beat him. Now let’s go viral! I’m assuming that’s some kind of… dance?
Marge: Why don’t we start with an ad?
Make Governor Mary Bailey Record a Political Ad- 24hrs, Earns $600, 150xp
Governor Mary Bailey: This Internet thing is a passing fad. I prefer timeless advertising tricks like skywriting and 1-800-COLLECT-sponsored two-part mystery episodes. I guess I could host a town hall and actually interact with my constituents. Just kidding. I’ll pay Russia to swing the election results.
