53 | InstM01IsaacSceneComplete | PlayerVoiceFemale01: I delivered the seeds. | {Confident / Question} Good, good. I trust everything went smoothly? | Player Default: Yeah, pretty much. | A1a |
54 | Player Default: Yeah, pretty much. | {Friendly} Splendid, splendid. | Isaac: Here you are then, something to aid in your future missions, courtesy of the BioScience Division. | A1a |
55 | Player Default: Hardly. | {Irritated} Don't tell me the simple act of carrying a packet of seeds from point A to point B proved difficult for you, hm? | | B1a |
56 | | {Irritated} On second thought, don't answer that. You'll just discourage me. | | B1b |
57 | | {Irritated} I have little enough faith in people as it is. I'd prefer not to lose any more. | Isaac: Here you are then, something to aid in your future missions, courtesy of the BioScience Division. | B1c |
58 | Player Default: Not sure I'd call it smooth, but it's taken care of. | {Neutral} Good enough, I suppose. | Isaac: Here you are then, something to aid in your future missions, courtesy of the BioScience Division. | X1a |
59 | Player Default: Does it really matter how smoothly it went? | {A stern lecture / Stern} Being a member of the Institute means holding yourself to a higher standard. | | Y1a |
60 | | {A stern lecture / Stern} It means efficiency and diligence, attention to detail and an exacting thoroughness. | | Y1b |
61 | | {A stern lecture / Stern} It's not enough just to do a job. It must be done well. | | Y1c |
62 | | {Dismissive, almost disrespectful / Neutral} At any rate, I'm sure you did the best you could. | Isaac: Here you are then, something to aid in your future missions, courtesy of the BioScience Division. | Y1d |
63 | Player Default: Splendid, splendid. | {Neutral} Here you are then, something to aid in your future missions, courtesy of the BioScience Division. | | A1a |
64 | | {Hurried, impatient / Neutral} That will be all, thank you very much. Goodbye. | | A1b |
65 | InstM01IsaacSceneFailed | | {Angry, stern / Stern} You made a real mess of things at Warwick Homestead. | Isaac: Oh yes, we know all about what happened. | A |
66 | NPCMIsaacKarlin: You made a real mess of things at Warwick Homestead. | {Angry, stern / Stern} Oh yes, we know all about what happened. | | A1a |
67 | | {Angry, stern / Stern} I told you to be discreet and you blatantly disregarded that directive. | | A1b |
68 | | {Stern, angry / Stern} Now what do you have to say for yourself? | Player Default: I'm sorry. I guess I just lost control. | A1c |
69 | Player Default: I'm sorry. I guess I just lost control. | {Angry / Angry} That's hardly a satisfactory explanation. | Isaac: Your carelessness has jeopardized months of research. | A1a |
70 | Player Default: I don't owe you an explanation, doctor. You have no authority over me. | {You've been thwarted, but you're still angry and vindictive / Stern} Yes, well... You should know that I'll be reporting this to Father and the rest of the Directorate. | Isaac: Your carelessness has jeopardized months of research. | B1a |
71 | Player Default: Look, sometimes things don't go the way you planned. That's life. | {Stern / Stern} Is that supposed to excuse your behavior? | | X1a |
72 | | {Stern, disappointed / Stern} How disappointing. I hoped you would at least have the sense to take responsibility for your actions. | Isaac: Your carelessness has jeopardized months of research. | X1b |
73 | Player Default: How did you know what happened up there? | {Stern / Stern} We monitor our surface operations carefully. | | Y1a |
74 | | {Stern / Stern} If you think you can sabotage our efforts and get away with it, you're very mistaken. | Isaac: Your carelessness has jeopardized months of research. | Y1b |
75 | Player Default: That's hardly a satisfactory explanation. | {Stern, lecturing / Stern} Your carelessness has jeopardized months of research. | | A1a |
76 | | {Angry, disgusted / Angry} The entire project will have to be suspended indefinitely, at best. | | A1b |
77 | | {Stern / Stern} In the meantime, I suggest that you think very carefully about whether you truly belong here. | | A1c |
78 | InstM01IsaacSceneIntro | | {Curt, professional / Neutral} Good day, director. | | A |
79 | | {Neutral} I need your assistance with a simple errand on the surface. Allow me to explain. | Isaac: Some time ago, we covertly replaced the family patriarch at Warwick Homestead with a synth. | A |
80 | | {Aloof, impatient / Irritated} Well well, if it isn't our visitor from the past. | | A |
81 | | {Neutral} I need your assistance with a simple errand on the surface. Allow me to explain. | Isaac: Some time ago, we covertly replaced the family patriarch at Warwick Homestead with a synth. | A |
82 | Player Default: It won't be a problem. | {Condescending / Confident} I trust that it won't. | Isaac: Now listen closely, because this next part is vitally important. | A1a |
83 | Player Default: Don't patronize me, pencilneck. | {Nervous} I... I meant no offense. Just, uh... well, let's move on. | Isaac: Now listen closely, because this next part is vitally important. | B1a |
84 | Player Default: Just give me the seeds. | {Very annoyed, bordering on angry / Angry} Patience, man! Rushed work is shoddy work, and we do not do shoddy work here. | Isaac: Now listen closely, because this next part is vitally important. | X1a |
85 | Player Default: Seeds for what? | {Confident} A melon plant that will, if my calculations are correct, be able to grow even in heavily irradiated soil. | | Y1a |
86 | | {Neutral} The fruit it bears will be perfectly healthy and edible. Or so I hope. | Isaac: Now listen closely, because this next part is vitally important. | Y1b |
87 | Isaac: I trust that it won't. | {Emphasize "vitally" / Neutral} Now listen closely, because this next part is vitally important. | | A1a |
88 | | {Neutral} When Roger asks how your trip was, tell him some Bloodbugs chased you halfway across the Commonwealth. | | A1b |
89 | | {Neutral} That code phrase will identify you as an agent of the Institute. | | A1c |
90 | | {Emphasize "must". Be insistent, urging caution, this is important.} Also, you must be discrete! Do nothing to draw attention to yourself or raise suspicion. | Player Default: I understand. | A1d |
91 | Player Default: A code phrase? What a joke. | {Irritated} No, sir, it is no joke. You had better start taking our work more seriously if you intend to have a future here. | Isaac: Now hurry on to Warwick Homestead so we can begin the experiment. | B1a |
92 | Player Default: Maybe I should get a secret decoder ring, too. | {Puzzled} A secret decoder ring? What a fascinating suggestion. I'll have to look into that. | Isaac: Now hurry on to Warwick Homestead so we can begin the experiment. | X1a |
93 | Player Default: And if your synth has been compromised? | {Condescending / Neutral} Then you'll have to improvise. You seem clever, I'm sure you'll manage. | Isaac: Now hurry on to Warwick Homestead so we can begin the experiment. | Y1a |
94 | Player Default: No, sir, it is no joke. You had better start taking our work more seriously if you intend to have a future here. | {Dismissive / Neutral} Now hurry on to Warwick Homestead so we can begin the experiment. | | A1a |
95 | NPCMIsaacKarlin: I need your assistance with a simple errand on the surface. Allow me to explain. | {Exposition / Neutral} Some time ago, we covertly replaced the family patriarch at Warwick Homestead with a synth. | | A1a |
96 | | {Neutral} He's been field-testing a variety of genetically-modified seeds that I created. | Isaac: Take this packet of seeds to the Roger Warwick synth. | A1b |
97 | Isaac: He's been field-testing a variety of genetically-modified seeds that I created. | Take this packet of seeds to the Roger Warwick synth. | | A1a |
98 | | {Don't screw this up / Irritated} Be careful with these! They represent years of genetic manipulation and enhancement. | | A1b |
99 | | {Snarky / Sarcastic} Hopefully you can manage such a simple task. | Player Default: It won't be a problem. | A1c |
100 | - | | Remember, use discretion! We don't want to blow our synth's cover. | | |
101 | | Warwick Homestead is on Nut island. Just look for the old waste treatment plant. | | |
102 | | {Surprised} Bit of a blunt instrument, aren't you? Kellogg was much the same. Very well then, down to brass tacks. | | |
103 | | {Depressed} *Sigh* How unsurprising. | | |
104 | | {Depressed} No doubt Doctor Holdren preferred to boast about the importance of the BioScience division rather than tell you the details of my situation. | | |
105 | | {Irritated} The man is useless, I tell you. Very well, I suppose it falls to me. | | |
106 | | {Irritated} Frankly, I resent Doctor Holdren claiming that I "need help". There's a subtle insinuation there that I don't care for. | | |
107 | | I simply require your services to make a delivery to one of our operatives on the surface. | | |
