It's very likely that I missed out on some entries. These were (mostly) collected over the course of a single playthrough.

Inside my desk is a ticker tape I took from Daddy's office. If it is not returned, he might trim my allowance!

At first, I was, I mean my 'friend' was suspicious. But after repeated sessions, the shoes' negative sensations helped me, um, her to overcome her self loathing.

1: Mr. Poladian scrounges old vegetables from Folkkes Market and resells them after trimming off bad spots. But he grows fresh ones that cost five times more.
2: My boss is vulnerable to all sorts of mischief whenever he leaves city limits, which he must do in order to change personalities. I do not understand it. I just protect him.

The nightclub keeps a window open in back to help cool the stage area. Entertainers gather around it before and after their performances.

The nurse warned me to shut up about my accident. A snap of her fingers could expel me from school. I did not know Stoolie Girl was eavesdropping until later.

1: I cannot reveal Brigton's[sic] extraordinary tribunal clause. I cannot say that it was created to avoid sending appeals to the big city.
2: I mentioned Mistress Fox had confided in me, earlier. He grew very quiet after I revealed her confession. Life would be very harsh if she were to marry him. He left.

We have been informed of professional bootleggers from the big city infiltrating Brigiton. Stool Pigeon has supplied us with irrefutable evidence of alcohol available at the Fledermaus nightclub.

"He wants us to ignore prior violations? Since when do we deputize criminals?" Detective Friendly complains. The Chief of Police answers, "Never! I was assured we need only overlook a few petty incidents of roguish behavior."

The cops can arrest him, but convictions require evidence. Secretary Primly kept records of the remodel. See if there is a match between repairs and accidents.

My mind was made up long ago when my pappy caught a stranger sleeping in the coal pile. The stove reeked of his outsider stench that entire winter.

1: Our shrimp of a new maintenance man worked hard remodeling the school, but I do not trust his strange intellect. He confuses me.
2: Misstress[sic] Fox has stayed out sick for the past few days, but I suspect she is not able to overcome her weakness for that shrimp of a maintenance man.

I should never have allowed Miss Hippilyta's plan! There was a reason Mrs. Ross's dance was prohibited, a foolish reason the mayor won't forgive, foolish man! My naivete in the matter disgusts me.

I can hope to graduate with passing grades, if I put out extracurricular efforts for certain teachers.

1: Please allow me to do my duty, and attend to other matters than mine.
2: Chief Gordon would rid this office of the stain of that attack along with the belligerents themselves, except they have the mayor's protection and the town's high regard.
3: It seems that there is a new source of alcohol entering Brigiton, a big one! The chief has ordered Officer Cooning and me to resume regular raids on the nightclub.
4: This is insane! Why did my father never discuss these secret laws? 'Stick to the fundamentals,' he drilled. 'Keep the streets safe. Do not let corruption find a foothold.' Chief Gordon explained the marriage night law to me just hours ago.
5: Jimmy Finn got his million dollars. Joshua Mapleberg and Timothy Richards got loads of customers. Tonight, Mistress Fox will save Maximillian from arson charges, unless you save her first.

I started as a staff physician in the big city. During the Spanish influenza I managed to escape to, I mean, land a position in, Brigiton.

Even a dumb animal is more free to live its life than I. Stuck behind this service table, I don't dare leave it or 'business would suffer'. I wish Mayor Stogie never set foot in this place!

Lately, various boys fancy to carry me like Cleopatra. This stupid ramp will ruin my one thrill!

1: Detective Friendly went ahead to arrest this, Maximillian.
2: It seems that alcohol from a new source is entering Brigiton, a big source! The chief has ordered the detective and me to resume regular raids on the nightclub.

The adult game was thrust upon me by someone who told me I needed it. It can be thrilling and hurtful. I was, AM, too young for it.

That newspaper man, Otto, is sponsoring a parade of kids on pogo sticks. I hear he bought a load of fad stocks! Har, har, har!

That is my official mandate. Rumors that might reflect badly upon the mayor and his new initiative have recently surfaced describing acts of excessive force by the Sanitation Patrol.

Aint got no blues... Got brand new shoes. Fresh strings on my guitar and a clean cut of hair dont cause my heart to stir. Boo hoo hoo! Guess its time to walk the road and wear my soul. Cuz livn too good wont cut the breakfast wood or set a fire in your stove. Boo hoo hooooo!!

My parents told me, the sure way to marry a girl was to kiss her. Stupidly, I followed their advice. Sure, I have an ideal life now, but the price was incurable cooties.

During winter break, on New Years Eve, I had a premonition that I would die before this semester ends.

1: Unless the city signs a new contract, my workers will haul their tents aboard the next train! Then who will pick up Brigiton's trash?
2: The mayor might amend our sanitation contract to let my crew scour this town! Even if we have to nip naughty puppies on the neck.
3: The mayor set me up, ruined my marriage, led me on like a blind horse, and killed my goldfish. But you girls spoiled my dream. My next plan will force you to experience the folly that is Brigiton!
4: I want to help the police, but Chief Gordon prefers to raid the nightclub instead of following my advice.

The mayor conned me into taking this job. At college, we were drinking buddies. His brawling youth acquiesed to gin. After graduation, he sank into politics like a gutter bum.

1: Last night, I watched a silhouette hulk across the lunch room window. This morning the kitchen had a small fire!
2: Actually, my daddy took me to Indiana. We stayed at the Raja hotel. A drunk conventioneer smiled at me and Daddy had him kicked out.
3: From my infirmary cot, I caught a glimpse of the game Mistress Fox played against Detective Friendly. They were measuring something. Will I be scarred for life?
4: When the detective made his arrest, I was abed with a slight fever in the infirmary. My scraped skin had become infected.
5: Maximillian returned to collect his things, but the dean had Secretary Primly gather them in advance. Mr. Primly said he took it rather badly.
6: I actually convinced two boys to dance. Both of them left, in the middle of the dance, while I was talking.

Jimmy once said, if he should fail to defeat the mayor, I should bring Mrs. Ross' locket to Dean Hemlock. I told him I did not care if he won or lost. I told him to forgive the mayor. I was wrong.

"Order, order!" A voice calls. "We will muster again upon our mounts of the arc after we have processed new LODG business matters into tonight's minutes."
Mrs. Glimmerette promised to introduce me to businessmen at the hotel and a more honest profession. She said from now on we should call HER Madam.

1: Gosling footprints, cat hot nose trailing, wicked, wicked! Other brains sink to stomachs by word their ears pounce! Greasy marks mild slip down than pit waiting you elsewhere here.
2: I was a tot when, back then, Hanging from circle tree was she. Not a drop bloodied her shoes, Pointed witch toes pointed to witches, town son avenged. Let us do it again!

1: Yvonne Glimmerette was not born in Brigiton. By all appearances wealthy, she occasionally misses her rent. She seems to get by on private arrangements with businessmen. Her manner is calm, but I have seen her worse than frantic.
2: My business depends upon businessmen visiting from out of town, but the mayor is very protective of local businesses. Without outside capital interests, Brigiton's economy would collapse.

Ahhh, there is nothing richer in my life than a hot soak and the company of men, for healthful engorgement of the corpuscles!

The cops can arrest him, but convictions require evidence. Secretary Primly kept records of the remodel. If repairs match to accidents, Max will catch an axe.

Clive was able to fix our pole. Normally, witches are welcome here to try the latest hairstyles, but Beatrice's curse was malicious!

1: I moved here from the big city to be with the woman of my dreams, but I have not had much time for her.
2: My love vouched for me, and I worked hard to repair her school. Instead, I have besmirched her reputation! What happened?
3: I was hesitant, but then I remembered what you girls said. 'Technically, what I have been hired to do is not against the law.' And the combination of sciences involved, biology and fluid dynamics, is fascinating!
4: Now that the nightclub has a new source of alcohol, the detective cannot harass you. He deserves it, for turning the school board against you.
5: I believed that fiend. He said we would make Brigiton a humbler town. We did clean up the outskirts. But the rest, if it had been true, so all my dreams would have come. He offered good money to build those pumps.
6: I have always loved playing with gadgets, fixing them, inventing them, but mostly I enjoy helping others enjoy gadgets, making them work right with the least fuss. I hope Julianne and I will raise a child who will pay the ultimate respect to my work, by making it obsolete.

1: I escaped across the patio. One of the new tiles shattered, and I fell. The broken tile looked new on top, but below were layers of old, cracked pottery.
2: The Great War took away boys my age. The men who survived moved to the big city. Even my mother knows I am too old to date schoolboys.

"Dreadful me! I cannot stop myself! Horrid thing!" CLATTER! "There, I threw it away. I am free!" Remorseful tears burst aloud. "...until tomorrow night!"

1: I am not sure the new maintenance man appreciated our school's spirit before adjusting its form and function to modern standards. He is very clever, though.
2: Two years before American women could vote, Suzanne Fragette won that right for us in Brigiton. She was my heroine when I was your age. I still admire her.
3: I had a liaison planned for that night. But I accidentally left my purse in the faculty room. The dean took it to his office for safekeeping.

The nice, new maintenance man spent the entire winter break refurbishing and modernizing our stalwart school, Daniel Gerard Ross High.

I must retrieve the stick I hide from the patrol, for private offers. If these shoes work as promised, they will crown my personal collection of delicious heels!

That loony new maintenance man spent the entire winter break trying to fix the school building and its furnishings.

The school hired a new maintenance man to fix our building and its furnishings. Another winter of neglect and we would be sitting on snow.

My apple pie is the most famous food in Brigiton. Folk drive out from the big city to dine on my apple pie. The secret is hand centrifuged apple jack.

I dared Liar Girl to demonstrate what she had learned in India. I found a bed, but when she saw it she froze like a fakir in a trance.

Dang this cheap stick! It lost all its spring, and just when I was getting good.

Henry and Roslyn never married. They held a ceremony but never signed the paperwork! They have not seen each other since. They should at least have suffered the lingering shame of divorce, like I do!

I was forced to marry Henry. My parents protected my honor with firearms. He and I have happy lives because we were caught kissing behind the barn.

1: Jimmy Finn runs the scrap yard outside of town. He hired us originally to collect the trash. He has a new contract with City Hall, to banish pogo sticks.
2: Some lady told our boss the town library has books on the safe use of pogo sticks. Everyone knows pogo sticks stunt your growth and weaken your arches. We must shred these lying books that encourage pogo stick abuse.
3: I feel kinda bad, doing this to the town's place of worship, but the boss said, EVERYWHERE! He assigns locations each day. Funny, we scoured the diner twice, but we never raided the restaurant.
4: Oh yeah, wasting Brigiton's center of politics and power feels great!
5: We stole this pie earlier from a windowsill on the boarding house. The townsfolk have conceded their lives to us. With a stout switch, we will run them like a herd of goats!
6: They curse each other, "You are not fit to be an American, you apple pie molester!"

1: He wonders "What did you lose, your cigarette lighter? Afraid you will have to give up something to a boy, just for a match?
2: Maximillian is our new maintenance man. Dean Hemlock hired him from the big city. He was very excited about living here in Brigiton.
3: I keep my records in the library, where all books belong. I was going there now to store additional accounts. The nurse recorded each accident and its cause.
4: Verifying Primly's quick work reveals an intriguing coincidence. Every item that caused an accident was purchased from same mail order catalog.
5: I knew Miss Fox originally proposed to hire Maximillian, but I was unaware of the depth of her attachment. Like most of her fancies she saw the man's superficial intellect and missed the simpleton within.
6: Dean Hemlock would assert his authority to police his domain, but the school board sympathizes with the mayor.

This will be my third annual pilgrimage to help unfortunates in scenic locations. Your generosity may apply to future karma and/or spiritual enlightenment, depending upon what I teach at the chantry next Saturday and Sunday.

1: This morning, I overheard the nurse order some girl to clam up about her accident. I could not see which girl it was.
2: Mother could have killed him this morning for losing money at the amusement park. Normally, I would not care, but the rat did not even have a nickel for my lunch!

After the mayor declared pogo sticks illegal, obedient citizens trashed their kids' sticks. With trash men pretending to be town marshalls[sic], garbage is collected less carefully.

That is the kind of trash I will be picking, after the mayor makes his announcement.

Of course we locked up all the valuables and anything easily damaged. The doors to the stairwell have been barred. The contract gives the patrol access to the first floor only, and we are given advanced notice.

1: The Loyal Order of Dem Guys obtained Otto's parade of pogo sticks. They are grown boys who left snips and snails for bustled tails. Individuals are harmless. As a group they are insufferable. Avoid the abandoned house after curfew.
2: I fix my income problems every few weeks by finding marks at the nightclub. My husband died from repeated blows from a frozen pot roast, and my larder is filled with pickles and preserves.

• Ideally, you'd want to learn as many taunts/retorts as you can during the fight and still win. So the limiting factors will be how strong your taunt skill (popularity ♥) is (how many taunts you can absorb before going for the finishing blow), what taunts/retorts the enemy knows, and your patience for redoing fights in order to get them to taunt you with the right taunt.
  
• Otherwise, if you just want to win, you either have to know what taunt they don't have the retort to (through trial and error) or just throw the simplest 1-damage taunts at them and deal bigger damage by retorts.
  
• Opponents learn the retort (and possibly taunts, at least within the same battle) so you may not want to retort a 1-point taunt they don't know if you're using that (and dealing big damage by retorting).

1S: If I were a cat, I'd claw your eyes outs.
Retort: If you were, more people would fix their cat.

1S: You're so clumsy, you could cut yourself on a rubber band.
Retort: You cut yourself with your own wit.

2S: The army could use you, to dig latrines.
Retort: The army DOES use you, to fill them.

3S: The way you act up would impress a circus.
Retort: The way you dress would make them laugh.

4S: I think everyone in town knows I'm much cooler than you.
Retort: Yeah, your head is filled with ice.

5S: I saw the most beautiful sunset, yesterday. That was your house on fire, wasn't it?
Retort: If it had been, I'm sure you would have flown right over -- and burned your antennae.

5S: I shan't attend your funeral, but I will send a letter of thanks.
Retort: Knowing I'll have buried you will be all the thanks I need.

6S: I just heard about your illness. I do hope it's nothing trivial.
Retort: Now I've seen you, I'm sure there'll be complications.

6S: There's nothing wrong with you that reincarnation won't cure.
Retort: You'll be the first thing I'll be happy to be cured of.

7S: You have Van Beethoven's ear for music, after he went deaf.
Retort: You have Van Gogh's.

8S: If we were stranded on a lifeboat, I would poison your water!
Retort: If we were stranded together, I would drink it!

1D: You have the perfect personality--for charming snakes.
Retort: Don't worry, I would never want to charm you.

1D: I heard something about you, but I shouldn't spread malicious rumors.
Retort: I hear people insult you all the time.

2D: You should disown your mother for making those clothes.
Retort: What, while yours makes with the rag collector?

3D: Brown is the perfect color for you, now that it's deer season.
Retort: With a wit like yours, it ought to be duck season.

3D: Oh, it's you. I thought a garbage truck was passing.
Retort: Garbage would smell better than what you just passed.

4D: If I were a street sweeper, I'd knock you into the gutter.
Retort: Nah. You'll never be promoted to that position.

5D: Have you been this sickly for all of your life?
Retort: Since the day the world contracted you.

5D: You're not only dull yourself, you cause dullness in others.
Retort: If that's as sharp as you get, you can be my whetstone.

6D: I know the perfect part for you in a play, The End.
Retort: If you were given a part, I'd never hear the end of it.

7D: Some cause happiness wherever they go. You, whenever you go.
Retort: When you arrive, everyone leaves.

8D: I'm surprised you love nature, considering what it did to you.
Retort: I'd be surprised, after all you've done to yourself, if there was anything natural left.

1C: In this town, I have climbed high above you.
Retort: Really? I thought you were born dizzy.

1C: Are you the first in your family born without a tail?
Retort: Has the rest of your family climbed down from the trees yet?

2C: I hope there's no reincarnation because I don't want to run into you again.
Retort: Don't you need a soul to reincarnate?

3C: If the owl symbolizes great wisdom, you wouldn't rate a chicken.
Retort: Even chickens have the sense to ignore a squawking chicken.

4C: I've heard your father is suing the stork that brought you.
Retort: I've heard your mother is suing your father.

4C: I recognize you from the mail-order catalog--in the livestock section.
Retort: What? The post office finally gave your firetrap an address?

5C: Your obituary will make short but cheerful reading.
Retort: By then, yours will have been long forgotten.

5C: You've never used a word that might send a third grader to the dictionary.
Retort: You should stop asking third graders to help you with your words.

6C: You can compress the most words into the smallest idea of anyone I know.
Retort: That's what it takes to press the smallest ideas into your head.

6C: Your mother should have thrown you out and kept the stork.
Retort: Your mother kept the cabbage.

8C: I am surprised by your delusions of adequacy.
Retort: I am surprised by the inadequacy of your delusions.

A simplified poker-style game. You start with a hand of 5 cards (either spades ♠, hearts ♥, diamonds ♦, clubs ♣, or blank - no suit). You can replace up to 5 cards a turn (based on fibbing ♦ skill) and then claim what your hand is. The opponent will either accept and claim a higher hand or call and you win if you have the hand you claimed.

The order of hands (from highest to lowest) is:

• 5 of a kind (ex: ♠♠♠♠♠)
  
• 4 of a kind (ex: ♠♠♠♠)
  
• Full house (ex: ♠♠♠♥♥)
  
• One of each (ex: ♠♥♦♣)
  
• 3 of a kind (ex: ♠♠♠)
  
• All one color/Flush (ex: ♠♠♣)
  
• 2 pair (ex: ♠♠♥♥)
  
• Pair (ex: ♠♠)
  
• Nothing

You have to make a decision whether to call the opponent's claim or claim a higher hand (once you click the button to start replacing cards you can't change your mind and call - even if you've replaced nothing).

Strategy is pretty situational and I haven't done the math to figure out a proper strategy so this is just what I feel. Depending on the hand I'm dealt I try to get at least 3 of a kind or one of each before I call the opponent's claim. 3 of a kind is better because you can aim for a full house/4/5 of a kind but you're at the mercy of luck with replacements.

A quirk is that you can claim a lower hand than what you have, be called out, and win. For example, you have a full house (♠♠♠♥♥). You could claim a full house, 3 of a kind, two pair, or pair and win. You'd lose if you claimed one of each/all one color. However, there is no real reason to claim a lower hand because it just wastes time and gives the opponent more chances to replace and get a better hand.

• You have to choose two of the three options (Brazen, Smooth, Devious). There are only three combinations (BS, BD, and SD) so it's like a rock-paper-scissors game.
  
• The glimmer scope item will show what type of player they are (it will flash the colored word in the top right corner for a second). It seems to flash when you pick up a token but it might not show if you pick it up too quickly.
  
  
  The outcomes:
  • Choose BS: higher B wins against BS, always loses against BD, always beats SD
    
  • Choose BD: always beats BS, lower B wins against BD, always loses against SD
    
  • Choose SD: always loses to BS, always beats BD, higher S wins against SD
  
  
  For best chance to win:
  • Against B players (BS or BD), play BD (lowest value on B)
    
  • Against S players (BS or SD), play BS (highest value on B)
    
  • Against D players (BD or SD), play SD (highest value on S)
  
  
  Another way to look at it:
  • Against Brazen: not middle (pick top & bot)
    
  • Against Smooth: pick top two
    
  • Against Devious: pick bottom two

Left side is the boy's flirt, right side is your response. If you flirt with an adult (I think) you may lose the character in certain situations. Characters are listed alphabetically.
