GREETING GREETING Disgust 50 There's nothing more to discuss. Now, run along. {dismissive and condescending} 1
GREETING Neutral 50 The sooner you find my property, the sooner I can get out of this slum. Really, how do you people live like this? {(impatient) unintentionally but definitely condescending} 2
GREETING Disgust 50 Standing around all day chit-chatting isn't going to help you track down my android. Is it? {impatient and annoyed} 3
GREETING Anger 50 What?! {impatient and annoyed} 4
GREETING Disgust 25 You there! What are you, some kind of lab assistant? No, you look a bit more... weathered. {(impatient) unintentionally but definitely condescending} 5
Happy 50 Are you by any chance... for hire? 6
GREETING Surprise 50 Ah, I trust you have reconsidered and wish to assist with the retrieval of my android? {(impatient) unintentionally but definitely condescending} 7
GREETING Disgust 50 Our dealings are done. I must ready myself for the journey back to the Commonwealth. Now if you don't mind... 8
GREETING Neutral 50 I have yet to make your acquaintance. My name is Zimmer. 9
GREETING Surprise 50 Are you in need of assistance? 10
MS03RCHistory1
Could I ask you about Rivet City's history?
Do you know the history behind Rivet City? Disgust 5 Looks to me like a giant boat ran aground and a bunch of savages moved in. History lesson over. 11
MS08AndroidDeadLieZimmer The android is dead. See, here's an internal component. <Lie.> Anger 80 What? Let me see that! This is a Neuro-Servo... Unique to the A3-21... I... And you say you got this from his corpse? 12
Disgust 50 I suppose there's no other way you could have obtained it. Well... damn it. I was afraid this would happen, out here in this, this... Wasteland. 13
Disgust 50 Well. Here's 50 caps for your troubles. Try to buy yourself an education out here in this hell. Good day. 14
MS08AndroidFound I've found your android. It's Harkness, Rivet City's security chief! Surprise 100 Harkness, you say? Yes... Yes, that makes sense. He used to work for a special branch of the Commonwealth Police, after all... {caught by surprise} 15
Neutral 50 And he's right here in Rivet City! Excellent! I must wait... find an opportune moment to confront him... {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 16
Neutral 50 Thank you for your discreet assistance, and continued discretion regarding this matter. {unintentionally but definitely condescendingEmphasis on the "continued."} 17
Neutral 50 And now for your payment. This combat module will directly affect your central nervous system. I think you will find it quite beneficial. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 18
MS08AndroidInstructions So... Any suggestions for finding this android? Neutral 50 Like I've said, I suspect he's had facial reconstruction, and possibly even a mind wipe. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 19
Neutral 50 Try snooping around the work spaces of techies you know, people like yourself. And try doctors' offices, look for patient records or something. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 20
Neutral 50 Start with Doctor Preston. He lives on this leaky boat. See if he knows anything. He's a "doctor" after all. 21
Disgust 50 Now, if you'll excuse me. I'm busy trying to ignore my surroundings. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 22
So... Any suggestions for finding this android? Neutral 50 Like I've said, I suspect he's had facial reconstruction, and possibly even a mind wipe. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 23
Neutral 50 Search the offices of doctors or techies for android information. If he's come into contact with these people, there may be records. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 24
Neutral 50 Start with Doctor Preston. He lives on this leaky boat. See if he knows anything. He's a "doctor" after all. 25
Disgust 50 Now, if you'll excuse me. I'm busy trying to ignore my surroundings. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 26
MS08AndroidLeadsMedical
MS08AndroidLeads
His face job was done here, at Rivet City! By someone named Pinkerton! Happy 50 Excellent! Find this Pinkerton and "interview" him. He may very well know the android's whereabouts. {hinting at violent means or breaking and entering} 27
Disgust 50 Well? Go! {annoyed the player isn't hopping to it.} 28
Someone got their hands on a Lipoplasticator and Micro Dermal Graftilizer. Surprise 75 Really? Someone managed to procure those here in the Wasteland? Impressive... But who out here could have the skill to use them? Hmmm... {shocked the player is making progress} 29
Disgust 25 You are making progress, certainly, but you've got nothing more to learn from me. Get back out there! {annoyed} 30
I'm tracking down the location and equipment used to perform the face job. Surprise 75 Ah, you've managed to sniff the trail! Good job. Keep me informed on your progress... {shocked the player is making progress} 31
Anger 25 Well? Why are you still standing there? {annoyed} 32
I've heard rumors about an android looking for special surgery. Disgust 75 Rumors? That's all you have to offer me? I expect something more concrete! Now get out of my sight! {annoyed} 33
MS08AndroidLeadsOther The person who did the surgery and reprogramming is here at Rivet City! Surprise 100 Really? Here? Surely not one of Doctor Li's trained monkeys... {(to himself) surprised} 34
Surprise 50 Well? Find them! The person you're looking for can perform facial reconstruction or a sophisticated computer memory transfer. {telling an idiot what he should be doing} 35
Anger 75 Go on! Shake a leg! {annoyed his hired help is just standing around not following orders} 36
MS08AndroidLeadsTechnical His memory transfer was done by a tech named Pinkerton. Here at Rivet City! Surprise 50 Excellent news! We're close... so close. {Shocked and pleased, then becoming patronizing} 37
Anger 50 Find this Pinkerton! Learn everything they know! I want that damned android, and I want him now! 38
Sounds like the android was definitely given new memories. Surprise 50 Good job! You've confirmed what I suspected all along. { (to himself) dripping with arrogance} 39
Disgust 50 Now, why don't you go out and figure out WHO did the memory work! 40
I'm tracking down leads on a Circuit Neuralizer. Surprise 50 A Circuit Neuralizer? Here in the Wasteland? How'd they manage to get their grubby hands on one of those? Impressive. { (to himself) surprised and dripping with arrogance} 41
Anger 10 You are showing signs of intelligence and resourcefulness. You might turn out useful after all. But you're wasting time talking to me. {patronizing} 42
There are rumors... about a secret Commonwealth artificial intelligence project? Disgust 50 Yes well, there are reasons we don't want our technology leaking into the Wasteland. Which is why I've asked you to retrieve it. {annoyed} 43
Anger 50 Which is what you should be doing right now! The longer you wait, the colder the trail becomes. {annoyed} 44
MS08AndroidSpeechThisOne Okay, so if others have escaped... why are you coming after this one? Neutral 50 This particular android... Designation A3-21, is... different. Special. The most advanced synthetic humanoid I've ever developed. 45
Neutral 50 The others, like my escort Armitage there, are all older models. Easily replicated. Ah, but A3-21... it would take years to recreate him! 46
Neutral 50 So you see, this android MUST be located. At all costs. The others are all... acceptable losses. But A3-21, he is... irreplaceable. 47
MS08AndroidStillLooking I'm still looking, don't worry. I'll find him. Disgust 50 Not soon enough! I don't think I can stand another day in this barbaric backwoods... {unintentionally but definitely condescending.} 48
MS08AndroidTech I need to know more about what I'm dealing with. What is an android exactly? Neutral 50 Forget everything you know about robots. Those buckets are mere children's toys compared to the real thing. {condescending} 49
Happy 50 Androids have fake skin, and blood, and are programmed to simulate human behavior, like breathing. They can even eat and digest food realistically. {gloating} 50
MS08AndroidZimmerGuilt Why would an android feel guilt? Come on, Zimmer, what aren't you telling me? Neutral 50 By God, you're as annoying as you are clever. Very well. I'll tell you what you want to know, if it helps you locate my property. 51
Neutral 50 The duty of this particular unit was the hunting and capturing of other escaped androids. Yes, others have escaped. 52
Neutral 50 It's one of the side effects of having such an advanced A.I. Machines start to think for themselves. Fool themselves into believing they have rights. 53
Neutral 50 And so... this particular android may have believed he'd done something... wrong. Immoral. And wanted to forget those deeds. Satisfied now? 54
MS08AndroidZimmerProd If this android "wandered" off, why would he want a new mind and face? Neutral 50 Maybe.... MAYBE he didn't exactly wander off. Maybe he fled. Escaped captivity, as it were, if he began to misinterpret his "situation." 55
Neutral 50 It's possible my android sought to forget his previous life. Wipe away all memory, all guilt. Trick himself into believing he really IS human. 56
Neutral 50 So no, he may not be just an ordinary robot, but he's certainly not human, no matter how badly he wishes it so. I made him. I want him. End of story. 57
MS08Commonwealth So tell me about the Commonwealth. Disgust 50 The Commonwealth itself is nothing but a war-ravaged quagmire of violence and despair. Inside the sealed environment of the Institute, however... {condescending} 58
Disgust 50 But... the Institute's affairs are none of your concern. Your undeveloped mind couldn’t even begin to comprehend what we’ve accomplished. {realizing he's said too much, and recovering.} 59
MS08GREETING1 That depends. What exactly are we talking about, here? Happy 60 To the point. I like that. Well, as it turns out, I've misplaced some very sensitive "property." {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 60
MS08GREETING2 You have a problem with the way I look? Surprise 100 How amusing. You've mistaken my metaphor for a derogatory remark. I need a local, you see. Someone with verve. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 61
Neutral 50 I've misplaced some very sensitive "property." 62
MS08GREETING3 I'm listening. Neutral 50 This could be an opportunity of a lifetime for you! I've misplaced some very sensitive property. And you will help me find it! {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 63
MS08GREETINGA1 Missing property? What kind of property? Happy 50 Hmmm... how do I put this in a way you'll understand? {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 64
Happy 75 All you know of robots are those buckets of bolts those Mr. Handshakers and whatnot. Well... that's not ALL a robot can be. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 65
Surprise 50 You see, in the Commonwealth, we've made artificial persons. Synthetic humanoids! Programmed to think and feel and do whatever we need. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 66
Anger 10 And... occasionally they get confused and wander off. 67
MS08GREETINGA3 Cut to the chase, Zimmer. What's the job? Surprise 50 You'll be searching for an android! Do you know what an android is? No, I imagine you don't. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 68
Neutral 50 All you know of robots are those buckets of bolts those Mr. Handshakers and whatnot. Well, that's not ALL a robot can be! Not in the Commonwealth. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 69
Neutral 50 I'm talking about artificial persons, that think and feel and do what we program them to. And... occasionally they get confused and wander off. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 70
Cut to the chase, Zimmer. What's the job? Neutral 50 Ah, a woman of action. I knew I picked the right person for the job! Let me be clear, you won't be looking for a lost puppy or family heirloom. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 71
Surprise 50 You'll be searching for an android! Do you know what an android is? No, I imagine you don't. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 72
Neutral 50 You see, we've moved beyond those primitive buckets you call robots, and have created Artificial Intelligence. Sentient machines! {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 73
Neutral 50 Artificial persons that think and feel what we program them to. Occasionally their programming miscalculates, they get confused and wander off. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 74
MS08GREETINGB1 Sounds like slavery to me. You sure they don't "wander off" on purpose? Surprise 100 Nonsense! This is a machine we're talking about. Can you enslave a generator, or a water purifier? Of course not. The same principle applies. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 75
Neutral 10 But let's get back to your mission. You are to find this missing android. I've tracked him to somewhere here in the Capital Wasteland. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 76
Surprise 50 He must have done something drastic, like facial surgery and a mind wipe, or else I would have found him by now. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 77
Neutral 50 It will be no easy task. He may not even realize he's an android. Don't upset him by talking with him. Just come get me immediately. I'll handle it. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 78
MS08GREETINGB2 Interesting... But what's this got to do with me, exactly? Anger 10 You're helping me retrieve this android! Aren't you? {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 79
Sad 10 I've tracked him this far. He's out there, somewhere. In the Capital Wasteland. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 80
Surprise 50 He must have done something drastic, like facial surgery and a mind wipe, or else I would have found him by now. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 81
Neutral 50 It will be no easy task. He may not even realize he's an android. Don't upset him by talking with him. Just come get me immediately. I'll handle it. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 82
MS08GREETINGB3 Enough techno-babble, Zimmer. Just tell me what you want me to do. Anger 10 Isn't it quite clear? You are to locate my android! {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 83
Surprise 50 He must have done something drastic, like facial surgery and a mind wipe, or else I would have found him by now. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 84
Neutral 50 It will be no easy task. He may not even realize he's an android. Don't upset him by talking with him. Just come get me immediately. I'll handle it. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 85
MS08GREETINGB4Science I know what an android is. I dabble in AI programming myself. Surprise 50 Oh. I hadn't realized anyone in the Wasteland was so knowledgeable. And you certainly don't look much like a scientist... {arrogant} 86
Neutral 50 Anyway... My android must have done something drastic, like facial surgery and a mind wipe, or else I would have found him by now. 87
Neutral 50 It will be no easy task. He may not even realize he's not human. Don't upset him by talking with him. Just come get me immediately. I'll handle it. 88
MS08GREETINGC1 I'll be compensated for my services, right? Neutral 50 Of course. I have at my disposal advanced technology from the Commonwealth. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 89
Neutral 50 I'd be willing to share some of it with you. Just think, you'll be the envy of all your friends! {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 90
MS08GREETINGC2 I'm not sure how it is up north, but around here, we get paid for our work. Happy 50 I'm sorry, it slipped my mind. I have at my disposal advanced technology from the Commonwealth. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 91
Happy 50 I'd be willing to share some of it with you. Just think, you'll be the envy of all your friends! {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 92
MS08GREETINGC3 Tell me, Zimmer. Is your wallet as big as your mouth? Disgust 10 How quaint. Of course you'll be rewarded! I have at my disposal advanced technology from the Commonwealth. {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 93
Happy 50 I'd be willing to share some of it with you. Just think, you'll be the envy of all your friends! {unintentionally but definitely condescending} 94
MS08GREETINGNo
MS08GREETING4No
Sorry, I've got better things to do. Disgust 50 You're as ignorant as all the other rats on this boat. When you realize I have the real cheese, you'll come crawling back. They always do. {arrogant} 95
I've got better things to do. Are you done talking now? Disgust 50 Quit wasting my time! {arrogant} 96
MS08GREETINGYes
MS08GREETING4Yes
Sure. I'll look into finding your android for you. Happy 50 Excellent. Locate my android, and you won't be disappointed. {arrogant} 97
Anger 75 Here, listen to this message he sent me. He's mocking me. I swear I'll make him pay for that. {smoldering anger} 98

GOODBYE I have to go now. Neutral 50 Of course you do. {condescending} 99
I've got business elsewhere. Neutral 50 So long. 100
HELLO HELLO Neutral 50 Hurry up. {arrogant and anxious} 101
HELLO Neutral 50 Time is wasting. {arrogant and anxious} 102
HELLO Neutral 50 Find him! {arrogant and anxious} 103
HELLO Surprise 50 Madam, do you know of anyone in Rivet City that seems unusual? Very unemotional or too formal? 104
HELLO Neutral 50 A glass of wine, please. 105
HELLO Disgust 50 We're not having any luck, Armitage. We may have to change strategies. 106
HELLO Neutral 50 Miss Janice, maybe we could exchange science notes sometime. My work in biological systems might be of interest to you. 107
HELLO Surprise 50 Excuse me, sir. Have you noticed anyone acting peculiarly in Rivet City? 108
HELLO Surprise 50 Do you have any salt? 109
HELLO Fear 50 Did I order already? If I didn't, I'd like Iguana Bits with vegetables. 110
HELLO Neutral 50 Vera, may I have some Brahmin steak, carrots, and a glass of water, please? 111
HELLO Surprise 50 Hello officer. You haven't seen anyone acting oddly lately, have you? 112
HELLO Neutral 50 Wastelander. 113
MS08ConfrontationA MS08ConfrontationA Surprise 50 Why yes! I'm anxious to retrieve him and return to the Commonwealth where he belongs. He's a very expensive piece of equipment. {arrogant} 114
MS08ConfrontationA Anger 50 What are you going on about? Yes. Of course he belongs to me. Now, have you found him or not? {arrogant and temper is rising} 115
MS08ConfrontationA Fear 50 I'm sorry? I don't follow. {confused and starting to understand an unpleasant truth} 116
MS08ConfrontationB MS08ConfrontationB Happy 50 There you are! I must say, you had me completely fooled. You're very clever A3-21, but not clever enough. Now, come with me! {"A-three-dash-twenty-one" like an arrogant parent to an ignorant child} 117
MS08ConfrontationB Happy 50 You're coming back with me to the Commonwealth. You're a very important android. You're just a bit confused. Your memories have been altered. {arrogant and sly} 118
MS08ConfrontationB Happy 50 Of course we will be doing things the easy way. I have no intention of harming you. It's time to bid your farewells, "Harkness." {arrogant and sly (ironic twist on Harkness, as it's not his real name)} 119
MS08ConfrontationB Happy 50 A3-21, initialize factory reset, authorization code: Beta, 5, 3, Alpha. {"A-three-dash-twenty-one" spoken authoritatively as if to a computer} 120
MS08ZimmerArgueA MS08ZimmerArgueA Disgust 50 But surely one of you glorified test tube jockeys can assist me? For the most advanced scientific center in the Capital Wasteland, I find your... {condescending} 121
MS08ZimmerArgueA Disgust 50 Yes, yes, yes... But Doctor Li... {condescending} 122
MS08ZimmerArgueA Disgust 50 I’m sure the good doctor’s work with water purification is fascinating, but if you only knew what was at stake. The technology in that android... {condescending… stretches out the word “fascinating” then excited to talk about the android} 123
MS08ZimmerArgueA Disgust 50 Ignorance and facetiousness! That’s all you people are good for. Shiny paint job, indeed. You can’t even imagine the Commonwealth's accomplishments. {condescending} 124
MS08ZimmerArgueA Disgust 100 Fine. But I’m not leaving. Not until I’ve spoken to Doctor Li. I’ll be here when she’s ready to abandon her chemistry set and talk real science. {condescending} 125
MS08ZimmerBugScientist1 MS08ZimmerBugScientist1 Disgust 50 Stop what you're doing. I have something important to discuss with you. {arrogant} 126
MS08ZimmerBugScientist1 Anger 20 Maybe you'll be more helpful than your "colleague" over there. Do you know anything about advanced robotics and artificial intelligence? {arrogant} 127
MS08ZimmerBugScientist1 Anger 50 Look. I only need a few minutes of your time. Just hear me out. I'll make it worth your while. {arrogant and hiding frustration that people are ignoring him} 128
MS08ZimmerBugScientist1 Anger 50 About my missing android... {arrogant and hiding frustration that people are ignoring him} 129
MS08ZimmerBugScientist1 Anger 50 I just need five minutes of your "precious" time. Think you can spare that? 130
MS08ZimmerBugScientist1 Anger 50 Whatever you're doing, it can wait. This is IMPORTANT! {arrogant and hiding frustration that people are ignoring him} 131
MS08ZimmerBugScientist3 MS08ZimmerBugScientist3 Anger 50 He's not just a robot! {arrogant and getting angry} 132
MS08ZimmerBugScientist3 Anger 50 That's Doctor Zimmer to you! Miss... miss whatever-your-name-is. I'd have thought you barbarians would be more interested in advanced technology. {arrogant and getting angry} 133
MS08ZimmerBugScientist5 MS08ZimmerBugScientist5 Neutral 50 I came to this leaky boat specifically to solicit your help. I'd hoped you "Project Purity" people would be more accommodating. {arrogant} 134
MS08ZimmerBugScientist5 Anger 50 Fine. Have it your way. Good luck with your little "project." I can see from the state of things here in the "Wasteland" that you will need it. {arrogant and fuming with anger} 135
RCGoodbye RCGoodbye Neutral 50 Yes, of course. I'll watch my alcohol intake. 136
RCGoodbye Fear 50 Good. Stay alert. He could be anywhere. 137
RCGoodbye Happy 50 Relax. I'm sure there is no danger here. 138
RCGoodbye Disgust 50 Not yet, Chief Harkness. 139
RCGoodbye Disgust 50 I could really care less about you and your brat, Madam. 140
RCGoodbye Neutral 50 Your food is very nourshing, Vera. 141
RCGoodbye Neutral 50 A glass of wine, if you please. 142
RCGoodbye Neutral 50 Yes. Iguana Bits, water, and a piece of fruit. Anything will do. 143
RCPackageEnd RCPackageEnd Disgust 50 No sign of him, Armitage. Let's look elsewhere. 144
RCPackageEnd Disgust 50 Well, he's obviously not here. 145
RCPackageEnd Neutral 50 Let's search a different deck today, Armitage. 146
RCPackageEnd Neutral 50 I should really begin the search. 147
