HMPH! You'll be sorry! Don't say I didn't warn you!

As I mentioned, this home belongs to Jonas Prendergast, the premier toy maker in Masteria, and perhaps all of the Maple World! Master Prendergast makes all of his wonderful toys right here, in his Workshop at the top of this house. You have heard of the Prendergast Toy Company, haven't you? No?!

Now I must go tend to my next task... apparently Ludmilla wants me to sweep out the Chimney. Of all things! Especially after what happened to Miss Sophilia! The woman never runs out of thankless tasks for me to perform!

Well, then what are you still doing here? Go fetch me 5 slices of Cherry Pie immediately!

Those 2022245s are rare to find these days. Use them wisely. Don't go wandering too far off though... I'm sure I'll be needing your services again soon enough.

The only problem is that I seem to be missing my jewelry! I can't find it anywhere! Worst of all, I had several pieces commissioned by two very famous --and very expensive-- jewelers and now every piece is gone! My prized 4031769s and 4031770s have vanished! There is no way I'm showing up to a ball without the right accoutrements! That would simply be embarrassing!

I remember finding this at the bottom of the stairs some time ago, so I threw it in my shoe closet... I had forgotten about it, really, until I was organizing my shoes just now.

Excellent! If you can get me 50 Firewood, 25 Screws, and 25 Loaded Springs, I think I can build a new Assembler in no time! Tick-tock, time's a wastin'! Where can you get these materials? Why, I used them to build all the toys I make... I'm sure you can find them lying about. Do, hurry and collect them! Remember, there are many children out there waiting for my wonderful, wonderful toys! We mustn't keep them waiting.

Come back in a little while and I may have some more work for you.

Ok! First, you have to find him. Oh, and the subject's name isn't really Mr. Bones. That's just a name I made up for him to make him sound a bit more menacing. The subject's name is... hold on... let me find the right page with that info... one sec... ah, here it is! J. Prendergast! Former owner of this house. Should be somewhere right in there. So, if you could find him, and just give him this Paranormal Subject Questionnaire to fill out, I'd be greatly indebted to you! Oh, and then please bring the completed form back to me!

Here! Now don't talk to me about this things! I am busy!

30 Locks of Doll's Hair should do the trick. Hmm... but where? Perhaps Edmunds may know where to find more. Or maybe you can get some back from my older models! Yes, yes, it's worth the sacrifice. Oh, and I'll also need some candy. Why, you ask? Tsk, tsk, that's the Prendergast secret, and part of the magic of my toymaking! Bring me 10 Heartstoppers, 10 Maple Candies, and 10 Pumpkin Taffies. Doll's hair and candy. Run along now. Time's a wastin'!

Here, take this to Sophilia! Tell my darling it's a gift from her Papa. I can't wait to see the joy on my daughter's face when she sees this! Run along! Do find her quickly! Marvelous how this one turned out! It's an absolutely perfect likeness of her! Absolutely PERFECT! I shall have to set up another production line for this model quickly!

Thanks again for all your help! The MBI is in your debt! Now, I can go home! Well, after I write up a Summary Report of Paranormal Investigations that is. Hmm, how long is this form... 672 pages?! *Sigh* These reports just get longer and longer. Guess I'll be here awhile...
