18 | DLC04MS01_BradbertonDecideScene | | So. Have you made up your mind? | Player Default: I'm not shutting off the power. With Sierra to keep you company, I think you'll both be happier. | A |
19 | Player Default: I'm not shutting off the power. With Sierra to keep you company, I think you'll both be happier. | {Surprised and disappointed / Angry} What?! Will you not respect the wishes of a man who has suffered the way I have? Please, I beg you to reconsider! | | A1a |
20 | Player Default: I'll do it. I'll shut off the power. | {Grateful} Thank you. | | B1a |
21 | | Now please do get on with it. I'm ready. I've been ready for a long, long time. | | B1b |
22 | Player Default: I haven't decided yet. | {Weary, helpless / Tired} I see. I can only hope your sense of compassion compels you to do the right thing. I've been a prisoner long enough. | | X1a |
23 | Player Default: What about Sierra's offer to keep you company? Wouldn't that help? | {Weary, despondent / Tired} I admit I'm flattered by her admiration, but I'm so tired, in ways that words could not explain. | | Y1a |
24 | | {Tired} I've lived far too long already, and I'm prepared to move on. | | Y1b |
25 | | {Tired} I await your decision. | Player Default: I'm not shutting off the power. With Sierra to keep you company, I think you'll both be happier. | Y1c |
26 | DLC04MS01_BradbertonPlayerScene | Player Default: Yeah, if our places were reversed, I'd probably want the same thing. | Then I trust you will honor my wish. | Sierra: You can't kill him! He's a great man! He invented Nuka-Cola, the best thing in the world! | A1a |
27 | Player Default: There's got to be a better solution than killing you. | That's easy for you to say, standing there on your own two legs, able to go where you wish and do what you want. | Sierra: You can't kill him! He's a great man! He invented Nuka-Cola, the best thing in the world! | B1a |
28 | Player Default: Come on, you're a disembodied head trapped in a vault. You've got so much to live for! | Despite your obvious sarcasm, you clearly recognize my situation for the living hell that it is. | Sierra: You can't kill him! He's a great man! He invented Nuka-Cola, the best thing in the world! | X1a |
29 | Player Default: Are you really sure that you want to die? | I've had plenty of time to think about it. | Sierra: You can't kill him! He's a great man! He invented Nuka-Cola, the best thing in the world! | Y1a |
30 | Sierra: You can't kill him! He's a great man! He invented Nuka-Cola, the best thing in the world! | {Bitter, sad / Sad} Young lady, you don't know what a torment it is, being trapped here alone and staring at the same wall, decade after decade. | | A1a |
31 | | {Getting annoyed / Irritated} Now please shut up while I talk to your more rational friend here | BradbertonsHead: I realize that what I'm asking isn't easy, but there's something in it for you. | A1b |
32 | BradbertonsHead: Now please shut up while I talk to your more rational friend here | I realize that what I'm asking isn't easy, but there's something in it for you. | | A1a |
33 | | {Despair, sadness / Sad} When the power is cut, the door to the prototype storage room will open automatically. Take anything you want. I don't care anymore. | | A1b |
34 | | Just... please... set me free at last. I can't bear this loneliness any longer. | Sierra: Wait, wait, wait! I have an idea! | A1c |
35 | Sierra: It's one of my most treasured possessions, but... well... I'm willing to let you have it. | A Nuka-Cola jumpsuit? Hah! That's a paltry prize compared to what I'm offering. | | A1a |
36 | | The choice is yours, but I beg you to honor my wishes. There is noone else who can help me. | | A1b |
37 | DLC04NPCMJohnCalebBradberton: You there, with the Pip-Boy. What are you doing here? | {Stern, demanding / Stern} You there, with the Pip-Boy. What are you doing here? | Player Default: We solved your Hidden Cappy contest. | A1a |
38 | Player Default: We solved your Hidden Cappy contest. | {Lost in memory, wistful / Irritated} The Hidden Cappy contest... it all seems so long ago. Another lifetime. | | A1a |
39 | | {Bitter / Irritated} That was before I became this monster. Before I was trapped here for centuries to suffer in solitude. | BradbertonsHead: This was General Braxton's plan all along. Damn the man! | A1b |
40 | Player Default: This has to be a joke. | {Angry, indignant / Angry} You trespass in my private vault in my office in my amusement park, and you have the gall to treat me like some joke? | | B1a |
41 | | Oh, what's the use. Look at me. Look at me! I'm a monster, trapped in a prison of my own making. | BradbertonsHead: This was General Braxton's plan all along. Damn the man! | B1b |
42 | Player Default: We used the contest code to get in. What the hell happened to you? | I made a devil's bargain, though I didn't know it at the time. | BradbertonsHead: This was General Braxton's plan all along. Damn the man! | Y1a |
43 | Player Default: That was before I became this monster. Before I was trapped here for centuries to suffer in solitude. | {Bemoaning your fate / Irritated} This was General Braxton's plan all along. Damn the man! | | A1a |
44 | | He called it Project Cobalt. In exchange for my weapon design, he would give me access to life-extending technology. | | A1b |
45 | | {Irritated} I'm such a fool for taking him at his word. He never told me that this would be the price! | Player Default: I can't imagine what you must have gone through. I'm truly sorry, Mister Bradberton. | A1c |
46 | Player Default: When something sounds too good to be true, it usually is. | {Irritated} You don't think I know that? You don't think I've contemplated my folly for decades on end? | | B1a |
47 | | I do not need some interloper to remind me of my greatest tragedy! | Sierra: A... a weapon? I don't believe it. Why would the genius who brought so much joy to the world want to make something destructive? | B1b |
48 | Player Default: Smart enough to invent Nuka-Cola, but you still fell for that? | {Arrogant pride / Stern} Yes, make your jokes, but I've still accomplished ten times more in a single lifetime than anyone I've met, including you! | | X1a |
49 | | As long as one person in this world still enjoys Nuka-Cola, my legacy remains intact, no matter what I've been reduced to! | Sierra: A... a weapon? I don't believe it. Why would the genius who brought so much joy to the world want to make something destructive? | X1b |
50 | Player Default: Who was General Braxton? | {Irritated} He was one of the top men in the Army Research Laboratory's Weapons and Materials division. | | Y1a |
51 | | He'd taken a keen interest in my quantum mechanics research, and offered me a trade. | | Y1b |
52 | | In exchange for my assistance on a top-secret weapons project, he gave me access to an experimental process tthat would artificially extend my life. | | Y1c |
53 | | Like a fool, I leapt before I looked. I've certainly paid the price for my short-sightedness. | Sierra: A... a weapon? I don't believe it. Why would the genius who brought so much joy to the world want to make something destructive? | Y1d |
54 | Sierra: A... a weapon? I don't believe it. Why would the genius who brought so much joy to the world want to make something destructive? | {haughty} Genius is restless, madam! It must expand, seek new challenges, and explore new frontiers. So yes, a weapon. | | A1a |
55 | | It was going to be a quantum-enhanced variant of the standard portable tactical warhead. | | A1b |
56 | | In fact, the prototypes are stored in this very chamber. You can have them, on one condition. | | A1c |
57 | | I want you to shut off the power to this machine that's keeping me alive. I want to die. | Sierra: What?! No! | A1d |
58 | DLC04MS01_SierraEnterHeadRoom | Sierra: That's John-Caleb Bradberton! Or at least, it's his head. Wow! | {Surprised, seeing humans for the first time in decades / Surprised} Who... who are you? I haven't seen a real human face in so long. I had given up all hope. | Sierra: Oh my God! It's alive! He's alive! | A1a |
59 | - | | {Impatient, the player has stopped responding} I realize my appearance is disturbing, but do try to focus. | | |
60 | | {Impatient, the player has stopped responding} It seems both of us have become frozen. | | |
