Santa SSB does come with a full questline, here’s a look at that questline:
To Murder or Not to Murder Pt. 1
Santa SSB starts
Bob Terwilliger: How can I ruin the Simpsons’ Christmas?
Gino: Murder?
Bob Terwilliger: I always try that. I think it’s time to mix it up a bit.
Gino: Torture, then murder?
Bob Terwilliger: Go find your mother. Daddy’s plotting and needs some alone time.
Make Gino Find His Mother- 4hrs
Make Sideshow Bob Not Plan a Murder-4hrs
Bob Terwilliger:That was harder than expected. It’s nearly impossible to think of the Simpsons without plotting murder.
Gino: Vendetta! Vendetta!
Bob Terwilliger: Yes, Gino, I underestimated you. That doesn’t mean I’m ready to get up to my old tricks just yet. But you’ve given me an idea…
To Murder or Not to Murder Pt. 2
Santa SSB starts
Santa Sideshow Bob: Step right up, children. Tell Santa about your parents’ security systems. I mean, what you want for Christmas.
Homer: About time! *sits on Sideshow Bob’s lap* I want a kegerator, a giant donut pool floatie, and a real donut the same size as the pool floatie.
Santa Sideshow Bob: Ooof. You’re a little large to be sitting on Santa’s lap. Shouldn’t you leave this for your children?
Homer: No way. My kids would never ask for the stuff I want.
Santa Sideshow Bob: Well, if Santa’s going to put your presents under the tree, he needs to know all about your home security. Wouldn’t want to accidentally set off your alarm.
Homer: Oh, that’s easy. We don’t have any. If you can’t fit the big things down the chimney, I can make sure the door is unlocked. I’ll leave it unlocked starting tonight in case you want to come early. *leaves*
Santa Sideshow Bob: That was too easy. *laughs maniacally*
Homer: What was too easy?
Santa Sideshow Bob: Oh, I thought you’d left.
Homer: I had. But I only walked like ten feet. You gotta wait longer. *leaves*
Santa Sideshow Bob: *waits*
Homer: *keeps walking*
Santa Sideshow Bob: *waits*
Homer: There was something really familiar about that laugh. I don’t think that was Santa at all.
Santa Sideshow Bob: *yelling* I can still hear you!
Homer: Gah. *walks further*
Moe: Homer, it’s just a guy in a suit. You know Santa’s not real, right?
Homer: I don’t think that’s true, Moe. If this guy is pretending to be Santa, he’s up to something. I’m gonna follow him.
Make Homer Stalk Santa Sideshow Bob – 4hrs
Make Santa Sideshow Bob Steal Christmas Presents –4hrs
Homer: Stop, thief! I knew you had to be up to something.
Santa Sideshow Bob: You moron, I’m Santa. I’m delivering presents.
Homer: Oh, yeah, that makes sense. I knew all that stuff about doing it in one night was nonsense.
Santa Sideshow Bob: That was too easy. *laughs maniacally*
Homer: I didn’t even leave that time.
Santa Sideshow Bob: I’ve gotta stop gloating so quickly.
Homer: Wait! I do know that laugh! Sideshow Bob! POLICE!
To Murder or Not to Murder Pt. 3
Santa SSB starts
Lou: You’re lucky I happened to be driving by, Homer. You know when people say “call the police” they mean on the phone, right?
Homer: What good would it do if I yelled “police” into a phone?
Santa Sideshow Bob: Can you tell this imbecile that I’ve done nothing wrong?
Lou: Actually, we’ve gotten several reports of someone fitting your description stealing Christmas presents.
Santa Sideshow Bob: That’s simple mischief. Surely there’s no law against that.
Lou: Just because you weren’t attempting murder this time, doesn’t mean you didn’t commit a crime.
Santa Sideshow Bob: That’s ridiculous! What could this crime where no harm was done be called?
Lou: Theft.
Santa Sideshow Bob: Now you’re just making stuff up.
Lou: I’m afraid not. You’re under arrest.
Santa Sideshow Bob: Then I want Homer arrested for stalking!
Homer: Well, now look who’s making up crimes.
Santa Sideshow Bob: There’s no way he just happened upon me. I think I saw him behind me at the last dozen houses.
Homer: Ha! A desperate attempt. Book him, Lou.
Lou: He’s right, Homer. If you’ve been following him around, that’s stalking. I have to take you in.
Homer: Take me in? As in…take me into your arms for a brotherly hug?
Lou: I’m afraid not.
Make Santa Sideshow Bob Get Arrested – 4hrs
Make Homer Get Arrested-4hrs
Make Lou Arrest Homer and Santa Sideshow Bob- 4hrs
Homer: *walking around a corner* Ah, back on the streets. Just in time for Christmas.
Santa Sideshow Bob: *walking around the same corner* Ah, back on the streets. Just in time to watch the Simpsons be miserable without their father for Christmas.
Homer: *smashes into Santa Sideshow Bob* Watch where you’re going!
Santa Sideshow Bob: *smashes into Homer* Open your eyes, you big goon!
Homer: Sideshow Bob!
Santa Sideshow Bob: Homer Simpson! I’m beginning to think there is something seriously wrong with the justice system in Springfield.
Homer: Agreed.
Santa Sideshow Bob: I guess I’ll just stick to murder and take full advantage of it then.
Homer: Not agreed.

Thoughts on act 2 so far? Santa SSB? Questline? Tasks? How are you doing with the prize track? Still, working on it? Sound off below!
Is there a place to get answers to the trivia questions 🤔
Yes, there were posts with answers for both acts posted. For Act 1, it was the day after the event began. For Act 2, it was the day the act launched.

Appreciate the fact that he won’t use the brown house but the Christmas buildings for the tasks
Why can’t I start the task “Make Santa Sideshow Bob Steal Christmas Presents” ? It is inactive, am I missing something ? Do I need a building or what ?
Do you have Sideshow Bob? And the Santa skin for him?
……I have both…….and the task is grey and I can’t start the job……
Do you have the corresponding building? (the one you could win in the prize track)
Which building ?……the task is still active after weeks……thank you for letting me know which building I have to buy
In my town he is performing the task in Santa’s Castle, which was the final prize of the first “act” of the update.
I do have Santa’s castle…….but he can’t perform anything but “not plan a murder”. All the other tasks are locked……
Then I don’t know sorry… maybe you should try to contact EA
Santa Sideshow Bob – I’m okay with the Character Skin vs another doppelganger (but I got over 500 Characters, so somebody else may disagree) ….. mine sure enjoys Character Tasking at Santa’s Castle and Santa’s Village (and I like that!)
The Questline was fun, Act 2 overall is good … my problem with Multi Act Events are when halfway through (even 1/4 thru) things start to go to crap, so I hope Act 3 and Act 4 are just a solid as Act 1 and Act 2).
Hey it’s Winter 🥶 Solstice and that means I get a paid day off today! Happy Holidays Everybody!! 🎄🎅🏻🦌❄️
