Full dialogue questline…
The Greed-Quest of Well-Known Kadath Pt. 1
Polystar Executive: H.P.! Thanks for coming in, babe.
H P Lovecraft: I only came because I’ve heard the movie business is insane and full of lunatics.
Polystar Executive: I love it! Or should I say, I Lovecraft it!
H P Lovecraft: No, don’t say that.
Polystar Executive: H.P., you’re one of the great, twisted minds in entertainment. The movie business needs you!
H P Lovecraft: I detest moving pictures. Print is my preferred medium. Besides, my works are all in the public domain. There’s nothing stopping you from making “Call of Cthulhu 2: Redial”.
Polystar Executive: Wait, wait! Let me write that down. What was that again?Make Polystar Executive Pitch Lovecraft on Pitching- 4hrs
Make Lovecraft Get Pitched on Pitching-4hrs

H P Lovecraft: You’re right. I AM a creative genius, and I need to share my gift with the world!
Polystar Executive: Remember, it takes an executive’s meddling for creativity to truly become genius.
H P Lovecraft: Get this: an amateur astronomer observes the night sky when he sees…strangely colored lights!
Polystar Executive: Uh-huh. And?
H P Lovecraft: And he goes insane!
Polystar Executive: That’s not a story! There’s no hero’s journey, no romance, no villain…
H P Lovecraft: Uh…the astronomer turns from the stars, travels to Polystar Pictures, makes love to the film executive’s fiancée, and then runs over the executive using the Polystar tram.
Polystar Executive: Now we’ve got a story!

H P Lovecraft: What if it was a Mid-Atlantic town?
Polystar Executive: I’m listening…
H P Lovecraft:And the shark—
Polystar Executive: Has a flame thrower! And the flame-throwing shark battles a giant ape who has a really hot girlfriend!
H P Lovecraft:Um, okay. I guess so?
Polystar Executive: Money!
H P Lovecraft: Ugh, what have I become?
The Greed-Quest of Well-Known Kadath Pt. 3
H P Lovecraft: I have to get away from that studio fool. Being around him has made me a shell of my creative self! “Shell”…hmm. Maybe a giant crab…fights crime…and has a hot girlfriend! Argh, that’s terrible! That exec has given me horror writer’s block!
Make Lovecraft Try to Get New Ideas- 4hrs
H P Lovecraft My walk around Springfield gave me a great new idea: a hapless dolt is irradiated in an accident, and turned into—
Polystar Executive: Put a pin in it, H.P. I’m watching this breaking news story.
Kent Brockman: We take you live to the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant, where Homer Simpson has been irradiated into a glowing monstrosity.
Radioactive Homer: RAAAARH!
Polystar Executive: Wow, that’s crazy! Anyway, you were saying?
H P Lovecraft: Never mind. A real hapless dolt just stole my idea.

Is There an Exorcist in the House? Pt. 3
Helen Lovejoy: Father Ben! There are still demons roaming the streets of Springfield.
Father Ben: I’ve seen a mummy or two, but you know, as I search for evil, Springfield actually seems like a pretty nice place! Maybe we could focus on the good in this town instead of looking for evil around every corner?

And finally here’s the full dialogue version of the Act 3 main questline…
The Conjurationing Pt. 1
Lisa: So it’s Mopey Mary…fine. I’m just glad you’re teaching Springfield what macabre really is, Mr. Poe.
Edgar Allan Poe: Mopey Mary, if you would be so kind as to terrorize the oafish denizens of this forlorn municipality…
Mopey Mary: I’m on it! Springfield, prepare to have your souls plunged into darkness, despair, and— Wait, is that a pumpkin bouncy house?
Bart: You betcha.
Mopey Mary: BOUNCY-BOUNCY-BOUNCY!

The Conjurationing Pt. 2
Helen Lovejoy: Father Ben, come quick! We need an exorcism on this monstrous child!
Mopey Mary: Jeez, lady. Take a chill pill.
Lewis Clark: Mopey Mary is our friend.
Father Ben: Well then which one is the possessed child?
Helen Lovejoy: The demonic-looking one!
Father Ben: You’ll have to be more specific. All children have a little devil in them.

Make Father Ben Try to Figure Out Who to Exorcise- 4hrs
Make Mopey Mary Run Off- 4hrs

Father Ben:Then where is the child I’m to be exorcising?
Lisa: Mopey Mary ran off.
Father Ben: I suppose I should get after her then. A little exercise before exorcising never hurt anyone, right?
Lisa: Less hilarity, more holy water, Father.
The Conjurationing Pt. 3
Bart: Lisa, your dusty old dude is so lame!
Lisa: And what have YOU done to make Halloween scarier?
Bart: Allow me to summon the TRUE fossil of fear!
Edgar Allan Poe: Who are you summoning, young man?
Bart: Gimme some room and you’ll see…MAGIC! *waves hands magically*
Lisa: Was that supposed to do something? Because it didn’t.
Bart: Those were “spirit fingers”. And again — KABOOM! *waves hands magically*
Edgar Allan Poe: I’m not seeing the kaboom, boy.

Bart: A very smart and attractive person who loves donuts…trays of donuts…truckloads…I’m talking Montana-size!
Lisa: We really have no shame.
The Conjurationing Pt. 4
Bart: Thanks to the mighty Sky Finger, I now present you with…the TRUE Master of Horror…
Lisa: H.P. Lovecraft!
Edgar Allan Poe: Who in blazes is H.P. Lovecraft?
H P Lovecraft: A REAL author who read your quaint stories and realized that horror should actually scare people!
Edgar Allan Poe: And if I had lived to read anything you’d written, rest assured I would be mocking it as well!
Bart: Oooh, this is good — lame dead guys fighting!

Lisa: And this is what the “Masters of Horror” have reduced Halloween to.
Bart: At least with these two lamewads we’re not running for our lives.
The Conjurationing Pt. 5
Mopey Mary: Hey, check it out — there’s a zombie outbreak happening at the cemetery on the edge of town.
Lisa: Real zombies?
Mopey Mary: Totes. They’re eating people’s brains too! Or trying to. Not sure they’re finding much brain meat in Springfield.
Lisa: I have a brain, so I get that!
Edgar Allan Poe: Flesh-eating zombies?! This is terrible!
H P Lovecraft: My brain is too superior to be eaten!
Bart: Relax, guys. This happens every couple of years. Someone will stop them.
Edgar Allan Poe: And that someone is Edgar Allan Poe! I know just what to summon to thwart this zombie infestation!
H P Lovecraft: Not if I summon my vastly superior solution first!
Lisa: I’m thinking a healthy horror writers’ competition is a good thing, right?

Make Lisa Wonder About Summoning Better Authors- 4hrs
Make Bart Wish He’d Read More Books- 4hrs
Collect Tombstones- x185
Edgar Allan Poe: Where is my infernal raven! Pecking zombies to death would have been so righteous!
Lisa: The raven is already in the game…I mean in Springfield.
H P Lovecraft: And why isn’t my mighty Cthulhu answering my call?
Bart: He’s already here, too.
Mopey Mary: And he’s totally hogging the bouncy house, so if you could tell him to get his big butt out of there, that would be swell.
H P Lovecraft: Ugh. Having all your stories in the public domain is the worst.
Edgar Allan Poe: Agreed. It’s so hard to control anything from the grave.
