3 | {amused by the irony / Amused} Someday, mother, this will all be yours... | ||||
4 | I'm glad you could be here to share this with me. | ||||
5 | Our advances will, in time, change the world. | ||||
6 | I couldn't be more proud of what we've achieved. | ||||
7 | Perhaps someday our synths can reclaim the Commonwealth. | ||||
8 | Hello, father. I hope your time in the Institute has been enjoyable. | ||||
9 | Hello, mother. Enjoying your time here? | ||||
10 | Let your surroundings be a reminder of what Science and willpower can accomplish. | ||||
11 | I often wonder what the Institute's founders would think of our accomplishments. |

16 | Player Default: If you are hearing this, then the time has come. I am gone. | {calming} I can no longer look after young Shaun. I hoped that you might be willing. | Player Default: He has been reprogrammed to believe he is your son. I hope that was not too presumptuous on my part. | A1a | |

25 | Inst301SceneFatherEnd | {A bit detached and formal, but with genuine warmth / Relieved} I'm glad to see you return safely. | Father: I know the task was difficult, but I needed you to see firsthand how dangerous a rogue synth can be. | A | |
26 | NPCMShaun60: I'm glad to see you return safely. | {Formal, a lesson} I know the task was difficult, but I needed you to see firsthand how dangerous a rogue synth can be. | Player Default: Gabriel and his gang were sick bastards, hanging their victims up like trophies. I'm just glad it's over. | A1a | |
27 | Player Default: Gabriel and his gang were sick bastards, hanging their victims up like trophies. I'm just glad it's over. | {Sad / Sad} While we can do nothing for Gabriel's victims, we can at least take comfort in the knowledge that the threat has been removed. | Father: In any case, the mission is over. | A1a | |
28 | Player Default: The Institute created that synth, so the Institute is responsible for what it does. | {A lesson, preaching a bit} I disagree. A synth is no more inherently evil than a handgun.![]() | B1a | ||
29 | {A lesson, preaching a bit} When a man dies by gunshot, is the weapon's maker blamed? Of course not. | B1b | |||
30 | {A lesson, preaching a bit} The blame rightly falls on he who pulled the trigger. | B1c | |||
31 | {A lesson, preaching a bit} Yes, we created the synth, but whether they intended to or not, the Railroad's agents turned it into a killer. | Father: In any case, the mission is over. | B1d | ||
32 | Player Default: I don't care about who's to blame. I just wanted to stop a killer. | Yes, of course. Your pragmatism is admirable.![]() | X1a | ||
33 | {A warning} It does matter, though. If everyone sees the Institute as a villain, dangerous forces could align against us. | X1b | |||
34 | If we can put the lie to such assumptions, we diminish that threat. | Father: In any case, the mission is over. | X1c | ||
35 | Player Default: Why do you care what happens on the surface? You're in your own world down here. | {Wary / Concerned} Because there are forces on the surface that could pose a threat to us, and only a fool ignores a possible threat.![]() | Y1a | ||
36 | We might diminish that danger by correcting the false perception that we intend some great harm to mankind. | Father: In any case, the mission is over. | Y1b | ||
37 | Player Default: While we can do nothing for Gabriel's victims, we can at least take comfort in the knowledge that the threat has been removed. | {Matter-of-fact} In any case, the mission is over.![]() | A1a | ||
38 | {A little disappointed to start, then evening out to a more neutral tone} While it's unfortunate that the synth was destroyed, the important thing is that you could see some of the good work we do. | Father: While you were away, I had quarters prepared for you. | A1b | ||
39 | Player Default: While we can do nothing for Gabriel's victims, we can at least take comfort in the knowledge that the threat has been removed. | {Amiable, good news} But enough about that. The task is done and you've returned our synth safely to us.![]() | A2a | ||
40 | {Amiable, good news / Happy} I couldn't have hoped for a better outcome. Well done. | Father: While you were away, I had quarters prepared for you. | A2b | ||
41 | Father: While it's unfortunate that the synth was destroyed, the important thing is that you could see some of the good work we do. | {Magnanimous} While you were away, I had quarters prepared for you.![]() | A1a | ||
42 | You'll find all the basic necessities, as well as a generous stock of arms and equipment. | A1b | |||
43 | {Warm, generous, a bit excited even. You're proud of your gift.} Go and have a look. I think you'll be quite pleased. | A1c | |||
44 | Inst301SceneFatherIntro | {Proud / Question} Now that you've had a chance to see the Institute first-hand, what do you think? | Player Default: You've got technology here that I never dreamed possible. It's amazing. | A | |
45 | Player Default: If the synths are intelligent and self-aware, then they have a right to free will. | However closely they may approximate human behavior, they are still our creations.![]() | A1a | ||
46 | {Confident / Confident} When you see what I have to show you, I think you'll agree that we know what is best for our synths. | Father: A rogue synth has taken over the raider gang at Libertalia. | A1b | ||
47 | Player Default: If they're so dangerous, you should destroy them and start over with a better design. | {Confident / Confident} There is no need for such drastic action. We are constantly working to correct any flaws that might arise.![]() | B1a | ||
48 | {Confident / Confident} As you will soon see, we're also more than capable of reclaiming any synths that become a danger to the surface. | Father: A rogue synth has taken over the raider gang at Libertalia. | B1b | ||
49 | Player Default: So it's like every other wonder-gizmo ever invented. When will you eggheads learn? | {Amused} Have faith. Let me show you how we deal with such problems. | Father: A rogue synth has taken over the raider gang at Libertalia. | X1a | |
50 | Player Default: What do you mean by proper supervision? | I mean that while they are here in the Institute, fulfilling the purpose for which they were designed, our synths perform admirably.![]() | Y1a | ||
51 | {Pause at the ellipsis as you choose the next word carefully} As you're about to see, however, they can become... unpredictable when set loose. | Father: A rogue synth has taken over the raider gang at Libertalia. | Y1b | ||
52 | Player Default: You've got technology here that I never dreamed possible. It's amazing. | {Approving / Neutral} I'm glad you can appreciate what we've accomplished. None of it has been easy. | Father: Ultimately, all of our knowledge and resources are focused on a single goal. That goal is best summarized by our motto: Mankind - redefined. | A1a | |
53 | Player Default: If you expect me to be impressed by a lot of fancy sci-fi gizmos, you'd be wrong. | {Disappointed / Concerned} I see.![]() | B1a | ||
54 | {A little condescending, but not intentionally / Concerned} It's not just about the "gizmos," as you say. I hope you'll see that in time. | Father: Ultimately, all of our knowledge and resources are focused on a single goal. That goal is best summarized by our motto: Mankind - redefined. | B1b | ||
55 | Player Default: I've seen my share of think-tank science labs. | {Self-assured, confident / Confident} Oh, I assure you, none of them were quite like this place. | Father: Ultimately, all of our knowledge and resources are focused on a single goal. That goal is best summarized by our motto: Mankind - redefined. | X1a | |
56 | Player Default: First things first. How do I get back to the surface? | The same way you got in, of course.![]() | Y1a | ||
57 | {Reassuring. / Neutral} You are not a prisoner here. You may come and go as you please. | Father: Ultimately, all of our knowledge and resources are focused on a single goal. That goal is best summarized by our motto: Mankind - redefined. | Y1b | ||
58 | Player Default: I'm glad you can appreciate what we've accomplished. None of it has been easy. | {Confident... grandstanding a bit / Confident} Ultimately, all of our knowledge and resources are focused on a single goal. That goal is best summarized by our motto: Mankind - redefined. | Father: Unfortunately, no advancement comes without occasional setbacks. | A1a | |
59 | Father: Ultimately, all of our knowledge and resources are focused on a single goal. That goal is best summarized by our motto: Mankind - redefined. | {Concerned} Unfortunately, no advancement comes without occasional setbacks.![]() | A1a | ||
60 | {choosing words carefully / Concerned} As remarkable as our synths are, they can be... dangerous without proper supervision. | A1b | |||
61 | {Concerned} The superior synth mind and body attempting to wrestle with something approaching free will can be a recipe for chaos. | Player Default: If the synths are intelligent and self-aware, then they have a right to free will. | A1c | ||
62 | Player Default: When you see what I have to show you, I think you'll agree that we know what is best for our synths. | A rogue synth has taken over the raider gang at Libertalia.![]() | A1a | ||
63 | His memories have been erased and his identity altered. He believes he's a man named Gabriel. | A1b | |||
64 | {Tinged with regret} Under his leadership, the raiders have taken many innocent lives. | A1c | |||
65 | I've dispatched a Courser to Libertalia. I'd like you to join him and reclaim that synth. | Player Default: We'll bring that synth home. | A1d | ||
66 | Player Default: We'll bring that synth home. | {Certain} That would be best for everyone. | Father: Now, you should get moving. Many people are in danger, and a delay could cost lives. | A1a | |
67 | Player Default: It might not want to talk. It would be safer just to kill it. | {Disapproving} That would be a terrible waste of a valuable resource.![]() | B1a | ||
68 | If at all possible, that synth should be returned alive. | Father: Now, you should get moving. Many people are in danger, and a delay could cost lives. | B1b | ||
69 | Player Default: Sure, we'll just fight our way through an army of homicidal maniacs and ask this synth to come on home. | I didn't say it would be easy, but I'm confident that with a Courser at your side, you'll have no trouble. | Father: Now, you should get moving. Many people are in danger, and a delay could cost lives. | X1a | |
70 | Player Default: Who erased his memories? And why? | Those idealistic radicals who call themselves the Railroad are behind it.![]() | Y1a | ||
71 | {Urgency} We'll deal with them in time, but right now the priority is to reclaim that synth before more harm is done. | Father: Now, you should get moving. Many people are in danger, and a delay could cost lives. | Y1b | ||
72 | Player Default: That would be best for everyone. | {Self-assured, confident, knowing} Now, you should get moving. Many people are in danger, and a delay could cost lives. | A1a | ||
73 | - | {Urgent} The sooner that synth is safely back in the Institute, the better for everyone. | |||
74 | Libertalia isn't hard to find. Just look for the jumble of wrecked ships floating in the harbor. | ||||
75 | {Urgent} You should get going. There's no time to waste. | ||||
76 | I hope you'll find your quarters adequate. | ||||
77 | You should go and see the room we've prepared for you. | ||||
78 | {Confident} Now you'll have a place to stay that's far safer than any on the surface. | ||||
79 | {Sad, with heavy heart} A regrettable turn of events.![]() | ||||
80 | {Sad, with heavy heart} I wish there was something I could say or do to ease your pain, but there's no changing the past. | ||||
81 | {Sad, with heavy heart} All that we can do now is to make the most of what time we have left. | ||||
82 | Nevertheless, they are a danger. Allow me to explain. |

83 | Inst302Stage100FailureScene | Well, at least you're back in one piece. | Shaun: A future which, I hope, is not in jeopardy after recent events. | A | |
84 | Shaun: And to see the Brotherhood of Steel involved in this... They had no way of knowing what was going on. | I will refrain from sharing the outcome with the Directorate for the moment. Things are already in motion that this would only derail. | Shaun: Speaking of which... | A1a | |
85 | Shaun: I will refrain from sharing the outcome with the Directorate for the moment. Things are already in motion that this would only derail. | Speaking of which... | A1a | ||
86 | Shaun: A future which, I hope, is not in jeopardy after recent events. | {RE-RECORD} Bunker Hill did not go well for us. Would you care to explain what happened? | Player Default: It's my fault. I wasn't able to complete the mission. | A1a | |
87 | Player Default: It's my fault. I wasn't able to complete the mission. | {RE-RECORD} I gave you this opportunity to prove yourself. Particularly to prove to the Directorate that you deserve a place here.![]() | A1a | ||
88 | {RE-RECORD} That will now be significantly harder. There will be accusations that you deliberately sabotaged the mission. | Shaun: Bunker Hill was to cement your place as a valuable asset to the Institute. It will now only raise suspicions. | A1b | ||
89 | Player Default: I made a choice. I let the synths go free. | {confused, upset / Disbelief} Why? Why would you do something so... so stupid? | Player Default: They were afraid. They didn't want to come back here. | B1a | |
90 | Player Default: I made a choice. I let the synths go free. | {disappointed/frustrated RE-RECORD / Stern} Wasn't enough? A single Courser could have done that job by himself. You must see how disappointing this is.![]() | B2a | ||
91 | {RE-RECORD} It's already been suggested that the mission was sabotaged. Do you have any idea how difficult this makes things for me? | Shaun: Bunker Hill was to cement your place as a valuable asset to the Institute. It will now only raise suspicions. | B2b | ||
92 | Player Default: We were totally ambushed. They were waiting for us. | {RE-RECORD} You can imagine that I find it very hard to believe, given that all the intelligence leading up to this indicated we'd take them by surprise. | Shaun: Bunker Hill was to cement your place as a valuable asset to the Institute. It will now only raise suspicions. | X1a | |
93 | Player Default: We got our asses kicked. Does it matter how? | {RE-RECORD / Stern} The chances of failing this mission were so astronomically low that yes, it does indeed matter. | Shaun: Bunker Hill was to cement your place as a valuable asset to the Institute. It will now only raise suspicions. | Y1a | |
94 | Player Default: That will now be significantly harder. There will be accusations that you deliberately sabotaged the mission. | {RE-RECORD} Bunker Hill was to cement your place as a valuable asset to the Institute. It will now only raise suspicions. | Shaun: And to see the Brotherhood of Steel involved in this... They had no way of knowing what was going on. | A1a | |
95 | Shaun: Bunker Hill was to cement your place as a valuable asset to the Institute. It will now only raise suspicions. | {Angry} And to see the Brotherhood of Steel involved in this... They had no way of knowing what was going on. | Shaun: I will refrain from sharing the outcome with the Directorate for the moment. Things are already in motion that this would only derail. | A1a | |
96 | NPCMShaun60: Well, at least you're back in one piece. | A future which, I hope, is not in jeopardy after recent events. | Shaun: Bunker Hill did not go well for us. Would you care to explain what happened? | A1a | |
97 | Inst302Stage100OutdoorScene | You know, in all my years, I've never set foot outside the Institute. Not once, since the day they brought me here. I've never had a reason. | Shaun: But now... this just confirms the truth I've always known. The Commonwealth is... dead. There's no future here. | A | |
98 | Player Default: Perhaps. But at costs too great to be worth it. | Standing here, I'm reminded of how fortunate I am that I was spared a life in this wasteland. | Shaun: I know that to you, I was kidnapped from that Vault. In truth, the Institute rescued me. | A1a | |
99 | Shaun: Standing here, I'm reminded of how fortunate I am that I was spared a life in this wasteland. | I know that to you, I was kidnapped from that Vault. In truth, the Institute rescued me. | Shaun: Both of us, really. | A1a | |
100 | Shaun: I'll admit, when I had you released from Vault 111, I had no expectations that you'd survive out here, in all this. | {Impressed} To not only do so, but manage to find me... to infiltrate the Institute itself...![]() | A1a | ||
101 | {impressed, proud / Awed} Extraordinary. | Player Default: So it was you. You let me out. | A1b | ||
102 | Player Default: So it was you. You let me out. | Yes, it was my decision. | Shaun: Certainly it was no longer necessary to keep you suspended... I... Well, I suppose I wanted to see what would happen. | A1a | |
103 | Player Default: Shaun, you need to know... I still love you. | I can see that you do. It's... well, it's remarkable. | Shaun: Soon I hope... I hope you'll understand. Everything I've done has been for the future. | A1a | |
104 | Player Default: That's all this is to you... All I am to you... just another experiment! | {Apologetic} No, that's not all. But still... I'm glad it turned out the way it did. | Shaun: Soon I hope... I hope you'll understand. Everything I've done has been for the future. | B1a | |
105 | Player Default: This is "science" to you? It's pathetic. All of it. | I'm sorry you see it that way. Perhaps in time you'll see it differently. | Shaun: Soon I hope... I hope you'll understand. Everything I've done has been for the future. | X1a | |
106 | Player Default: Well, here I am... Was it worth it? | {Happy} I believe so. | Shaun: Soon I hope... I hope you'll understand. Everything I've done has been for the future. | Y1a | |
107 | NPCMShaun60: You know, in all my years, I've never set foot outside the Institute. Not once, since the day they brought me here. I've never had a reason. | {disappointed, bitter} But now... this just confirms the truth I've always known. The Commonwealth is... dead. There's no future here.![]() | A1a | ||
108 | The only hope for humanity lies below. | Player Default: It's not so bad, really. People manage. | A1b | ||
109 | Player Default: It's not so bad, really. People manage. | Perhaps. But at costs too great to be worth it. | Shaun: Standing here, I'm reminded of how fortunate I am that I was spared a life in this wasteland. | A1a | |
110 | Player Default: It wasn't always like this. It used to be different. | I can only imagine. | Shaun: Standing here, I'm reminded of how fortunate I am that I was spared a life in this wasteland. | B1a | |
111 | Player Default: Some air fresheners, a new coat of paint, and it'll all be good as new. | If only it were that simple. | Shaun: Standing here, I'm reminded of how fortunate I am that I was spared a life in this wasteland. | X1a | |
112 | Player Default: So why come out here? | To put things in perspective, I suppose. | Shaun: Standing here, I'm reminded of how fortunate I am that I was spared a life in this wasteland. | Y1a | |
113 | Player Default: They kept me alive too... | {Apologetic} They did indeed. | Shaun: I was the perfect candidate; an infant with uncorrupted DNA. But if something were to go wrong... if I died... | A1a | |
114 | Player Default: They left me on ice... for sixty years... | {Apologetic} They did, and for good reason. | Shaun: I was the perfect candidate; an infant with uncorrupted DNA. But if something were to go wrong... if I died... | B1a | |
115 | Player Default: Kellogg called me the "backup." | {Apologetic} Did he? Well, he was correct. | Shaun: I was the perfect candidate; an infant with uncorrupted DNA. But if something were to go wrong... if I died... | X1a | |
116 | Player Default: But... why re-freeze me? | {Apologetic} As a failsafe, of course. | Shaun: I was the perfect candidate; an infant with uncorrupted DNA. But if something were to go wrong... if I died... | Y1a | |
117 | Shaun: I know that to you, I was kidnapped from that Vault. In truth, the Institute rescued me. | Both of us, really. | Player Default: They kept me alive too... | A1a | |
118 | Player Default: They did indeed. | {Thinking} I was the perfect candidate; an infant with uncorrupted DNA. But if something were to go wrong... if I died... | Shaun: Well, the Institute realized a contingency plan was prudent. Another source of pre-war DNA, preferably related to their primary subject. | A1a | |
119 | Shaun: I was the perfect candidate; an infant with uncorrupted DNA. But if something were to go wrong... if I died... | {Apologetic} Well, the Institute realized a contingency plan was prudent. Another source of pre-war DNA, preferably related to their primary subject. | Shaun: It only made sense that my parents should fill that role. So, you were kept alive and safe within the Vault. | A1a | |
120 | Shaun: Well, the Institute realized a contingency plan was prudent. Another source of pre-war DNA, preferably related to their primary subject. | {Apologetic} It only made sense that my parents should fill that role. So, you were kept alive and safe within the Vault. | Shaun: I'll admit, when I had you released from Vault 111, I had no expectations that you'd survive out here, in all this. | A1a | |

So, you were kept alive and safe within the Vault. | I'll admit, when I had you released from Vault 111, I had no expectations that you'd survive out here, in all this. | Shaun: To not only do so, but manage to find me... to infiltrate the Institute itself... | A1a | |
122 | Player Default: You could've let me out decades ago! | {hesitate on "logical" / Apologetic} Until I became director, I had no idea you were there. And after, there was initially no... logical reason to do so. | Shaun: Certainly it was no longer necessary to keep you suspended... I... Well, I suppose I wanted to see what would happen. | B1a | |
123 | Player Default: Your unconditional love is... overwhelming. I think I need a moment. | {Apologetic} I can accept that you're offended. You must understand, though... I have had no love to feel. We have been strangers until now, you and I. | Shaun: Certainly it was no longer necessary to keep you suspended... I... Well, I suppose I wanted to see what would happen. | X1a | |
124 | Player Default: Why let me out now, after all this time? | {Apologetic} That's... well, that's hard to explain. | Shaun: Certainly it was no longer necessary to keep you suspended... I... Well, I suppose I wanted to see what would happen. | Y1a | |
125 | Player Default: Yes, it was my decision. | {Apologetic} Certainly it was no longer necessary to keep you suspended... I... Well, I suppose I wanted to see what would happen. | Shaun: An experiment, of sorts. | A1a | |
126 | Shaun: Certainly it was no longer necessary to keep you suspended... I... Well, I suppose I wanted to see what would happen. | {Apologetic} An experiment, of sorts. | Shaun: I had no idea what kind of man you were, you see. | A1a | |
127 | Shaun: An experiment, of sorts. | {Apologetic} I had no idea what kind of man you were, you see. | Shaun: Would the Commonwealth corrupt you, as it has everything else? Would you even survive? | A1a | |
128 | Shaun: An experiment, of sorts. | {Apologetic} I had no idea what kind of woman you were, you see. | Shaun: Would the Commonwealth corrupt you, as it has everything else? Would you even survive? | A2a | |
129 | Shaun: I had no idea what kind of man you were, you see. | {Apologetic} Would the Commonwealth corrupt you, as it has everything else? Would you even survive? | Shaun: Perhaps most curious to me... would you, after all this time, attempt to find me? Now I know the answer. | A1a | |
130 | Shaun: Would the Commonwealth corrupt you, as it has everything else? Would you even survive? | {Apologetic} Perhaps most curious to me... would you, after all this time, attempt to find me? Now I know the answer. | Player Default: Shaun, you need to know... I still love you. | A1a | |
131 | Player Default: I can see that you do. It's... well, it's remarkable. | Soon I hope... I hope you'll understand. Everything I've done has been for the future. | Shaun: Bunker Hill did not go well for us. Would you care to explain what happened? | A1a | |
132 | Player Default: I can see that you do. It's... well, it's remarkable. | There are greater things to come after your success at Bunker Hill. | Shaun: The synths have been safely returned, and will be repurposed. Thank you for your work. | A2a | |
133 | Inst302Stage100SuccessScene | I'm glad you made it back. | Shaun: The synths have been safely returned, and will be repurposed. Thank you for your work. | A | |
134 | NPCMShaun60: I'm glad you made it back. | The synths have been safely returned, and will be repurposed. Thank you for your work. | Shaun: I hope you weren't at too much risk. | A1a | |
135 | Shaun: The synths have been safely returned, and will be repurposed. Thank you for your work. | I hope you weren't at too much risk. | Player Default: There's always a risk. It was worth it. | A1a | |
136 | Player Default: There's always a risk. It was worth it. | I'm glad you see it that way. | Shaun: The Railroad remains an annoyance, of course, but they'll be dealt with as necessary. | A1a | |
137 | Player Default: The Courser could've handled it on his own. It was a waste of my time. | I disagree. It's important that you understand the work that is necessary to maintain the Institute. | Shaun: The Railroad remains an annoyance, of course, but they'll be dealt with as necessary. | B1a | |
138 | Player Default: It was a job that needed doing. | Yes, but it was also a job that you needed to be aware of. | Shaun: The Railroad remains an annoyance, of course, but they'll be dealt with as necessary. | X1a | |
139 | Player Default: What do you mean, the Synths will be "repurposed?" | {slightly dismissive} Modifications will be made to correct the defects in their programming, and they'll be assigned to new duties within the Institute.![]() | Y1a | ||
140 | {slightly dismissive} Not the first or last time it will happen. | Shaun: The Railroad remains an annoyance, of course, but they'll be dealt with as necessary. | Y1b | ||
141 | Player Default: I'm glad you see it that way. | The Railroad remains an annoyance, of course, but they'll be dealt with as necessary. | Shaun: And you... Well, you've passed the test, as they say. You have done well. | A1a | |
142 | Shaun: The Railroad remains an annoyance, of course, but they'll be dealt with as necessary. | And you... Well, you've passed the test, as they say. You have done well. | Shaun: Please, take this as a token of my appreciation. Our appreciation, really. | A1a | |

144 | Inst302Stage100SynthFreeScene | Player Default: They were afraid. They didn't want to come back here. | {disbelief, losing your temper / Angry} Afraid? They're machines, artificial! They're incapable of being afraid! | Shaun: This was such a simple task, I just don't understand. I know you're capable of handling yourself. | A1a |
145 | Player Default: I made the call. I don't have to explain myself to you. | {frustrated, upset / Disgust} No... No. You do. You at least owe me an explanation. | Shaun: This was such a simple task, I just don't understand. I know you're capable of handling yourself. | B1a | |
146 | Player Default: It was the right thing to do, Shaun. | {disbelief, annoyed / Disbelief} There's no moral choice to be made here. | Shaun: This was such a simple task, I just don't understand. I know you're capable of handling yourself. | X1a | |
147 | Player Default: So a few synths so missing. It's not the end of the world... why is this so important? | {frustrated / Irritated} By allowing this to happen, the Institute appears weak. That is an unacceptable outcome. | Shaun: This was such a simple task, I just don't understand. I know you're capable of handling yourself. | Y1a | |
148 | Player Default: Afraid? They're machines, artificial! They're incapable of being afraid! | {frustrated} This was such a simple task, I just don't understand.

149 | Shaun: This was such a simple task, I just don't understand. I know you're capable of handling yourself. | How can I expect you to represent the Institute if this sort of thing continues? | Player Default: Shaun, I'm sorry. It won't happen again. | A1a | |
150 | Player Default: Shaun, I'm sorry. It won't happen again. | {resigned, calming down / Somber} I appreciate that, but this... It makes things difficult. | Shaun: Bunker Hill was to cement your place as a valuable asset to the Institute. It will now only raise suspicions. | A1a | |
151 | Player Default: I don't want to be involved in this, Shaun. I want out. | {shocked, hurt / Disbelief} After all this, after... Everything you've seen, all that you've learned. You're just going to walk away? | Player Default: I'm sorry, Shaun. You're right - let's just forget this ever happened. | B1a | |
152 | Player Default: Let's not forget our roles here, son. At the end of the day, I'm still your father. | {defiant, standing your ground / Defiant} I am acutely aware of our positions. I am also not a child, and have a tremendous amount of responsibility for the Institute. | Player Default: I'm sorry, Shaun. You're right - let's just forget this ever happened. | X1a | |
153 | Player Default: What if I don't want to "represent the Institute?" Have you thought about that? | {annoyed} to be quite honest: no, I hadn't considered that. It would be such a poor decision on your part, I had not given it much thought. | Player Default: I'm sorry, Shaun. You're right - let's just forget this ever happened. | Y1a | |
154 | Player Default: I'm sorry, Shaun. You're right - let's just forget this ever happened. | {calming down / Stern} It's not quite that simple. | Shaun: Bunker Hill was to cement your place as a valuable asset to the Institute. It will now only raise suspicions. | A1a | |
155 | Player Default: You may actually be completely crazy. | {hurt, angry, trying to hold back / Angry} Well, I suppose that makes your position quite clear, doesn't it? | Shaun: I had hoped we could be something like a family again. I hoped you shared our vision for the future. | B1a | |
156 | Player Default: I can't do it, Shaun. I can't be a part of this anymore. | {hurt / Somber} I am... very sorry to hear that. | Shaun: I had hoped we could be something like a family again. I hoped you shared our vision for the future. | X1a | |
157 | Player Default: So, where does this leave us? | {stern but hopeful / Stern} I need to be sure I can count on you going forward. | Shaun: I had hoped we could be something like a family again. I hoped you shared our vision for the future. | Y1a | |
158 | Player Default: Well, I suppose that makes your position quite clear, doesn't it? | {disappointed / Sad} I had hoped we could be something like a family again.

I hope you can find some amount of peace. | A1a | |

166 | Ah, hello mother. | Shaun: Tell me, what would you do when someone has stolen from you? | A | ||
167 | Player Default: I'd teach the guy a lesson; make sure he never does it again. | Using physical force is never my first choice, but there are times when it becomes necessary. | Shaun: You've been in contact with the Railroad, so you're aware of their misguided beliefs. | B1a | |
168 | Player Default: After everything I've been through to find you? I think you already know. | I'm sorry, father. Of course, you're right. | Shaun: You've been in contact with the Railroad, so you're aware of their misguided beliefs. | X1a | |
169 | Player Default: After everything I've been through to find you? I think you already know. | I'm sorry, mother. Of course, you're right. | Shaun: You've been in contact with the Railroad, so you're aware of their misguided beliefs. | X2a | |
170 | Player Default: That's a loaded question. What's been stolen from you? | Institute property is not often taken from us. We cannot react lightly when it happens. | Shaun: You've been in contact with the Railroad, so you're aware of their misguided beliefs. | Y1a | |
171 | Shaun: They no doubt mean to "free" these synths, in their delusion that synths are somehow sentient beings. | You've been in contact with the Railroad, so you're aware of their misguided beliefs. | Player Default: They mean well; they're only doing what they think is right. | A1a | |
172 | Player Default: You dealt with Libertalia. That's the result of their selfish, short-sighted plan. | Usually they are a minor nuisance, but lately they have become more emboldened. | Shaun: I'm afraid we've reached a point where a response is necessary. | A1a | |
173 | Shaun: Usually they are a minor nuisance, but lately they have become more emboldened. | I'm afraid we've reached a point where a response is necessary. | Shaun: We have learned the current location of these synths, and need to re-acquire them before the Railroad can hide them. | A1a | |

175 | Player Default: They're crazy, thinking machines are alive. | Agreed. However noble they may believe themselves to be, they are thieves. | Shaun: Usually they are a minor nuisance, but lately they have become more emboldened. | B1a | |
176 | Player Default: Railroad? Never heard of them. | {mildly annoyed} Oh come now, let's not play games. I know full well they were instrumental in your reaching the Institute.![]() | X1a | ||
177 | Don't worry; I don't hold it against you. | Shaun: Usually they are a minor nuisance, but lately they have become more emboldened. | X1b | ||
178 | Player Default: What happened? What've they done? | They are in possession of technology that does not belong to them. | Shaun: Usually they are a minor nuisance, but lately they have become more emboldened. | Y1a | |
179 | Player Default: An admirable goal. And yet we find ourselves in a situation where something more significant must be done. | The group that calls themselves "The Railroad" has acquired several synths from the Institute, synths that had gone missing in recent months. | Shaun: You've been in contact with the Railroad, so you're aware of their misguided beliefs. | A1a | |

182 | Player Default: Sounds pretty simple. | Hopefully, yes. | Shaun: But it's important that we act on this soon, before the Railroad has any indication we've tracked them. | A1a | |
183 | Player Default: That sounds way too dangerous. | It shouldn't be. | Shaun: But it's important that we act on this soon, before the Railroad has any indication we've tracked them. | B1a | |
184 | Player Default: I'm not sure why you'd bother. | Aside from taking back our property, we must teach them a lesson, as it were. And quickly, at that. | Shaun: But it's important that we act on this soon, before the Railroad has any indication we've tracked them. | X1a | |
185 | Player Default: Where are the synths located? | A small settlement at the old Bunker Hill monument. | Shaun: But it's important that we act on this soon, before the Railroad has any indication we've tracked them. | Y1a | |
186 | Player Default: Hopefully, yes. | But it's important that we act on this soon, before the Railroad has any indication we've tracked them. | Shaun: We also don't want the Brotherhood of Steel getting wind of the presence of the synths. That would only complicate matters. | A1a | |

188 | Player Default: I'll act quickly. You can count on me. | You'll have a contact waiting for you just outside Bunker Hill. Good luck. | A1a | ||
189 | Player Default: Seriously, this is a waste of my time. | {Stern} Like many things at the Institute, this has ramifications beyond the immediate objective. Keep that in mind.![]() | B1a | ||
190 | A Courser will be waiting for you near Bunker Hill. You'll need him. | B1b | |||
191 | Player Default: There better be something in this for me. | I assure you, this operation will have very significant results in your favor.![]() | X1a | ||

198 | Inst303DirectorateFatherScene | Justin: How can you possibly justify this? He isn't one of us... he isn't even a scientist! | {annoyed} Ignoring your borderline-insubordinate tone, I will simply say this. | Shaun: The Institute has enough scientists. What it needs is a leader. | A1a |
199 | Shaun: Ignoring your borderline-insubordinate tone, I will simply say this. | The Institute has enough scientists. What it needs is a leader. | Shaun: I believe my father has already proven himself more than capable in that regard. | A1a | |

203 | Clayton: I don't know that this is the time... | Doctor Holdren, it is time. Please. | Shaun: As I'm sure several of you are already aware, I have been under Doctor Volkert's care for some time. | A1a | |
204 | Shaun: Doctor Holdren, it is time. Please. | As I'm sure several of you are already aware, I have been under Doctor Volkert's care for some time. | Shaun: I'm sorry, this is... difficult for me. | A1a | |
205 | Shaun: As I'm sure several of you are already aware, I have been under Doctor Volkert's care for some time. | I'm sorry, this is... difficult for me. | Shaun: Our best efforts have failed. Every experimental treatment we could devise has been unsuccessful. | A1a | |
206 | Shaun: I'm sorry, this is... difficult for me. | Our best efforts have failed. Every experimental treatment we could devise has been unsuccessful. | Shaun: I'm... I'm sorry to say I am dying. | A1a | |
207 | Shaun: Our best efforts have failed. Every experimental treatment we could devise has been unsuccessful. | I'm... I'm sorry to say I am dying. | Madison: What?! | A1a | |
208 | Player Default: The only thing that matters now is continuing the Institute's work. It will be all right, I assure you. | We can talk more later. Right now, the future of the Institute is at stake. | Shaun: The Institute cannot survive without leadership. The Directorate must continue to govern with the best interests of all in mind. | A1a | |
209 | Shaun: We can talk more later. Right now, the future of the Institute is at stake. | The Institute cannot survive without leadership. The Directorate must continue to govern with the best interests of all in mind. | Shaun: To that end, I am naming my father as my successor. | A1a | |

212 | Justin: You can't be serious! | Please, everyone. Please! | Shaun: I am sorry. This is not how I'd wanted to tell you, but we're running out of time. | A1a | |
213 | Shaun: Please, everyone. Please! | I am sorry. This is not how I'd wanted to tell you, but we're running out of time. | Player Default: There must be something we can do to help you. | A1a | |

215 | Player Default: Why would you joke about this? It isn't funny. | Were it a joke, I'd agree it's in poor form. But I'm afraid it's not. | Shaun: We can talk more later. Right now, the future of the Institute is at stake. | B1a | |
216 | Player Default: This can't be happening. I... I only just found you. | I've had the same thought more than a few times. But we cannot let this stop us. Our work must continue. | Shaun: We can talk more later. Right now, the future of the Institute is at stake. | X1a | |
217 | Player Default: You're dying? | I'm afraid so. A very aggressive form of cancer. Believe me when I say we've done everything we can. | Shaun: We can talk more later. Right now, the future of the Institute is at stake. | Y1a | |
218 | Inst303DirectorateOpeningScene | Evan: Considering... I mean, given all parties present? | Given that some of us have apparently lost interest in this meeting, I think we'll adjourn for now. | A1a | |
219 | Alana: For now, we have assets monitoring all known situations. | Very good, thank you. | Shaun: It's clear that our safety needs to be the primary concern going forward. To that end, where are we on Phase Three? | A1a | |
220 | Shaun: Very good, thank you. | It's clear that our safety needs to be the primary concern going forward. To that end, where are we on Phase Three? | Madison: Ah, sir. Are you sure that this is the time to be discussing it? | A1a | |
221 | Good, we're all here. I think it's time we begin. | Justin: Sir, excuse me, but... | A1a | ||
222 | Alana: Excuse me sir, but is it wise to have this meeting given... present company? | I will address that issue, but there are other subjects that require our attention first. | Shaun: The level of unrest in the Commonwealth continues to rise, as we're all aware. Your report? | A1a | |
223 | Shaun: I will address that issue, but there are other subjects that require our attention first. | The level of unrest in the Commonwealth continues to rise, as we're all aware. Your report? | Allie: All Institute facilities remain completely secure, with... the exception of one notable breach. | A1a | |
224 | Inst303DirectoratePhase3Scene | Player Default: Quite right. For far too long we've been dependent on others, on our surroundings. That time is over. | Phase Three is, simply, the activation of a nuclear reactor that can provide enough power to the Institute now and forever. | Shaun: It will ensure not just our survival, but our prosperity. | A1a |
225 | Shaun: Phase Three is, simply, the activation of a nuclear reactor that can provide enough power to the Institute now and forever. | It will ensure not just our survival, but our prosperity. | Player Default: Sounds like an important step. | A1a | |
226 | Player Default: Sounds like an important step. | {mildly amused} That's... well, that's an understatement. | Shaun: The reactor is close to ready, but recent tests have determined we have a few tasks ahead of us. Thus, we come to Phase Three. | A1a | |
227 | Player Default: Nuclear power? That's a disaster waiting to happen. | {emphatic} Not in our hands. I assure you, this is the answer. This is the future. | Shaun: The reactor is close to ready, but recent tests have determined we have a few tasks ahead of us. Thus, we come to Phase Three. | B1a | |
228 | Player Default: I'm not sure what this means. | You'll see in time. I promise you that. | Shaun: The reactor is close to ready, but recent tests have determined we have a few tasks ahead of us. Thus, we come to Phase Three. | X1a | |

233 | And to how you will help. | Justin: Sir? | A1b | ||
234 | Justin: Sir? | Yes, Doctor Ayo. Previously we would rely on Kellogg for above ground operations, yes? Well, he is gone. | Shaun: While I am not overly fond of putting my own father in harm's way, he has proven more than capable of handling himself. | A1a | |
235 | Player Default: Really? There's no shame in being out of the loop, as it were. The project has been classified for quite a long time. | Power is, as I'm sure you've seen above ground, a very valuable commodity. | Shaun: I'm not talking about some abstract concept of control, I mean real tangible power.

238 | Shaun: With every advance the Institute makes, our need for raw power increases. | Many compromises and sacrifices have been made over the years to allow progress to continue. | Player Default: In this world, I'm sure compromise is necessary. | A1a | |
239 | Player Default: In this world, I'm sure compromise is necessary. | Quite right. For far too long we've been dependent on others, on our surroundings. That time is over. | Shaun: Phase Three is, simply, the activation of a nuclear reactor that can provide enough power to the Institute now and forever. | A1a | |
240 | Player Default: Compromise is for the weak. | That is one perspective, yes. But I think we can agree that going forward, no one can consider us weak. | Shaun: Phase Three is, simply, the activation of a nuclear reactor that can provide enough power to the Institute now and forever. | B1a | |
241 | Player Default: Right, such hard times down here. | I would never disagree that life in the Institute is better than above ground. We have done much to ensure it.![]() | X1a | ||
242 | Now, we take things even further. | Shaun: Phase Three is, simply, the activation of a nuclear reactor that can provide enough power to the Institute now and forever. | X1b | ||
243 | Player Default: What kind of compromises? | We have, at times, had to rely on drawing power from above-ground installations. It risks personnel and equipment.![]() | Y1a | ||
244 | But no longer. | Shaun: Phase Three is, simply, the activation of a nuclear reactor that can provide enough power to the Institute now and forever. | Y1b | ||
245 | Ah, yes. That's true. | Shaun: Have you heard anything about Phase Three? | A1a | ||
246 | Shaun: Ah, yes. That's true. | Have you heard anything about Phase Three? | Player Default: Of course. | A1a | |
247 | Player Default: Of course. | Really? There's no shame in being out of the loop, as it were. The project has been classified for quite a long time. | Shaun: Power is, as I'm sure you've seen above ground, a very valuable commodity. | A1a | |
248 | Player Default: I have no idea what that is. | I'll admit, I'm relieved. It's intended to be something of a classified project, which I'm sure means everyone already knows about it. | Shaun: Power is, as I'm sure you've seen above ground, a very valuable commodity. | B1a | |
249 | Shaun: Yes, Doctor Ayo. Previously we would rely on Kellogg for above ground operations, yes? Well, he is gone. | While I am not overly fond of putting my own father in harm's way, he has proven more than capable of handling himself. | Justin: Yes, but... | A1a | |
250 | Shaun: Yes, Doctor Ayo. Previously we would rely on Kellogg for above ground operations, yes? Well, he is gone. | While I am not overly fond of putting my own mother in harm's way, she has proven more than capable of handling herself. | Justin: Yes, but... | A2a | |
251 | Justin: Yes, but... | {stern, ending discussion} This is not a matter for debate. | Shaun: Now, there is one more subject that requires discussion. | A1a | |
252 | Shaun: This is not a matter for debate. | Now, there is one more subject that requires discussion. | Clayton: I don't know that this is the time... | A1a | |
253 | Player Default: I don't think so. | It's all right. I wouldn't expect you to have. The project has been classified from the beginning. | Shaun: Power is, as I'm sure you've seen above ground, a very valuable commodity. | X1a | |
254 | Player Default: What's Phase Three? | It's very important to us. | Shaun: Power is, as I'm sure you've seen above ground, a very valuable commodity. | Y1a | |
255 | Inst303DirectoratePreSceneLoop | Allie: I'll let you know when the review is complete. | {complimetary} May I say, Doctor Holdren, I'm quite impressed with the latest harvest from your division. | Clayton: Oh, thank you sir. Isaac and Dean did a great deal of work over the last few months. I'll let them know you're pleased with the result. | A1a |

261 | Inst303Stage30FatherScene | Shaun: That's why I'd like you to take charge of this latest operation. Doctor Filmore can fill you in on the details. | There are hard decisions ahead. For all of us, but for you especially. I know that you'll do the right thing. | A1a | |
262 | Shaun: I'm sorry, father. I hope it wasn't too presumptuous of me to put you in charge without even asking first... | Everything, really. Our reactor is nearly ready, my physical condition is worsening, and I had intended to reveal my plans for your taking over.![]() | A1a | ||
263 | I must say, it's somewhat embarrassing to attempt to name you as my successor when you can't even be bothered to stay at the meeting. | Shaun: Well, I'm not sure how much you heard about the state of the reactor, but it was apparently too much to ask for you to be there for the rest. | A1b | ||

265 | The short version is that I am dying, and I had planned to name you as my successor. It's quite disappointing that you walked out. | Shaun: I have to admit I simply don't understand how you could walk out of that room while I was in the midst of explaining the state of my health. | A1b | ||

268 | Player Default: Shaun, I'm... well, I'm very sorry. | {forgiving / Grateful} Apology accepted.![]() | A1a | ||
269 | {Thinking} I trust I was not assuming too much in naming you as my replacement... | Player Default: I can do the job. | A1b | ||
270 | Player Default: I'm a busy guy. Had things to do. | I cannot imagine what could be more important at this point.![]() | B1a | ||
271 | In the future, you'll need to consider your priorities more carefully. Being Director will demand much of your attention. | Player Default: I can do the job. | B1b | ||
272 | Player Default: It won't happen again. | {Irritated} I hope not. If you're to be the Director someday, people will need to know they can count on you to be there. | Player Default: I can do the job. | X1a | |
273 | Player Default: You were going to name me as the Director? | {mildly annoyed / Irritated} That was my plan, yes. I hope it wasn't too presumptuous of me... | Player Default: I can do the job. | Y1a | |
274 | PlayerVoiceFemale01: I had no idea... | I know this is... well, it's a lot to take in at once. | Shaun: I'm sorry, father. I hope it wasn't too presumptuous of me to put you in charge without even asking first... | A1a | |

Our reactor is nearly ready, my physical condition is worsening, and I had intended to reveal my plans for your taking over. | A2a | |
277 | Player Default: I can do the job. | {proud, confident} Of course you can. That's why I made the decision. | Shaun: There's no question that some of the Directorate, and the Institute at large, will need reassurances about your appointment. | A1a | |
278 | Player Default: I don't want to run this place. | Are you so sure? You seem to have a natural talent for leading by example, getting things done.![]() | B1a | ||

281 | Player Default: What would it mean to be in charge? | Most divisions of the Institute are fairly autonomous, perfectly capable of functioning without intervention.![]() | Y1a | ||
282 | Where those divisions interact, however, problems can arise. You'd lead the Directorate in setting policy, resolving disputes, and the like. | Shaun: There's no question that some of the Directorate, and the Institute at large, will need reassurances about your appointment. | Y1b | ||

290 | Player Default: I'm proud to help the Institute. Here's hoping it all pays off. | At this point, there is no doubt. It will succeed, and very shortly. | Father: There is one more part for you to play, and I think you might enjoy it. | A1a | |
291 | Player Default: Well maybe it's because I'm the only one who seems to actually be doing anything. | Come now. Countless hours have been spent building and readying the reactor. True, you have endured some of the more dangerous missions... ![]() | B1a | ||
292 | Such is the price of leadership. | Father: There is one more part for you to play, and I think you might enjoy it. | B1b | ||
293 | Player Default: Let's just get the rest of it done. | Yes, quite. | Father: There is one more part for you to play, and I think you might enjoy it. | X1a | |
294 | Player Default: A lot of work went into this before I even arrived... Just how close are we? | It shouldn't take long at all. The Facilities division has it well in hand. | Father: There is one more part for you to play, and I think you might enjoy it. | Y1a | |
295 | Player Default: At this point, there is no doubt. It will succeed, and very shortly. | There is one more part for you to play, and I think you might enjoy it. | Father: It is time to announce our presence to the Commonwealth, to request they do not interfere with our plans. You should be the one to do it. | A1a | |
296 | Father: There is one more part for you to play, and I think you might enjoy it. | It is time to announce our presence to the Commonwealth, to request they do not interfere with our plans.

297 | Player Default: That's a good idea. Hopefully we can prevent violence and save some lives. | Yes, that is one goal.

Once you're finished, we'll broadcast them to the entire Commonwealth. | A1a | |
298 | Player Default: You've got to be kidding me. | Absolutely not. You are to be the Director of the Institute. You are the only reasonable choice for so important a task. | Father: We've prepared some remarks for you to record. Once you're finished, we'll broadcast them to the entire Commonwealth. | B1a | |
299 | Player Default: Right, because no one up there suspects the Institute exists. | This is not a joke.![]() | X1a | ||
300 | There has been too much posturing by too many groups. The world needs to know that we are in power, and the Commonwealth is ours. | X1b | |||
301 | As the incoming Director it is your responsibility to lead, to establish that place for the Institute's future. Please take this seriously. | Father: We've prepared some remarks for you to record. Once you're finished, we'll broadcast them to the entire Commonwealth. | X1c | ||
302 | Player Default: What kind of announcement are we talking about? | A broadcast. An announcement to the Commonwealth that the Institute is not to be trifled with.![]() | Y1a | ||
303 | As the incoming Director, that responsibility naturally falls to you. | Father: We've prepared some remarks for you to record. Once you're finished, we'll broadcast them to the entire Commonwealth. | Y1b | ||

308 | Player Default: A quaint phrase, though I'm afraid the air there is anything but fresh. | The radio station in Diamond City is listened to by many in the Commonwealth.![]() | A1a | ||
309 | If we'd like the people to hear what we have to say, it's the best way to reach them. | Father: Before we... preempt their broadcast, we need to ensure it reaches the maximum range possible. | A1b | ||
310 | Father: If we'd like the people to hear what we have to say, it's the best way to reach them. | Before we... preempt their broadcast, we need to ensure it reaches the maximum range possible. | Father: I've been assured that the necessary parts are on-site. You'll just need to install them to boost the broadcasting power. | A1a | |

315 | Father: Now it's time to make sure that everyone hears it. | How would you feel about making a little trip to Diamond City? | Player Default: I could use some fresh air. | A1a | |
316 | Player Default: I could use some fresh air. | {mildly amused} A quaint phrase, though I'm afraid the air there is anything but fresh. | Father: The radio station in Diamond City is listened to by many in the Commonwealth. | A1a | |
317 | Player Default: There must be someone else you can send for whatever this is. | We don't have any other reliable above-ground operatives. And the locals are somewhat familiar with you. | Father: The radio station in Diamond City is listened to by many in the Commonwealth. | B1a | |
318 | Player Default: I'll go if it's necessary. | It absolutely is. | Father: The radio station in Diamond City is listened to by many in the Commonwealth. | X1a | |

323 | Player Default: Of course it is. Wasn't hard to do at all. | {Apologetic} I'm sorry, I don't mean to question you. This is... well it's just such an important moment. Decades in the making. | Father: I'll let you do the honors. | B1a | |

354 | Player Default: You really expect me to agree to that? To just kill them all? | {losing patience} I have made that abundantly clear. Yes, that is what I expect. If we do not exterminate them now, they will continue to threaten our safety.![]() | Y1a | ||
355 | {really losing patience} Now will you do it or not? | Player Default: Fine. I'll do it. | Y1b | ||
356 | Inst306Stage10FatherRRAlly | I won't ask for details. I'm sure I don't want to know. | Father: But these people, with their twisted ideology... They seek to undermine everything the Institute stands for. Surely you can see that. | A1a | |
357 | Father: I won't ask for details. I'm sure I don't want to know. | {frustrated, with conviction} But these people, with their twisted ideology... They seek to undermine everything the Institute stands for. Surely you can see that. | Player Default: They're determined, and they won't stop.

For our future. | A1a | |
359 | Player Default: They want freedom for the synths, that's all. They're not a threat to the Institute. | {angry} Of course. They claim they're about "rights" and "freedom" for synths.

For our future. | B1a | |

They would see us all dead and buried. | Father: Surely you can see that you can no longer work with them; that the time has come to put an end to them. For our sake. For our future. | X1a | |
361 | Player Default: How do you know what their goals are? You've never tried to engage with them. | I've dealt with them far longer than you have. I've seen what they're capable of, the lengths to which they'll go to achieve their objectives. | Father: Surely you can see that you can no longer work with them; that the time has come to put an end to them.

367 | Father: Then I certainly hope I can count on you for what needs to be done. | Because these fanatics cannot be allowed to continue to exist.

370 | Player Default: You don't have to worry about them any longer. They're as good as dead. | Thank you. Do what needs to be done, but keep yourself safe. | Father: These people are zealots. They have continually shown no regard for human life, in their bizarre crusade to "free" synths. | A1a | |

380 | Player Default: I'll get rid of them. | {relieved at acceptance but concerned} Thank you. I realize this will be dangerous; please try to stay safe. | Father: You know that if the tables were turned, they would not hesitate to wipe us out. | A1a | |
381 | Player Default: I'm sorry. I'm not going to do it. | {shocked, saddened} How can you say that? | Father: You know that if the tables were turned, they would not hesitate to wipe us out. | B1a | |
382 | Player Default: I can't make that decision. | I'm afraid the time for indecision is behind us. I need to know if you're willing to do this or not, and I need to know now. | Player Default: I'll get rid of them. | X1a | |

384 | Inst306Stage10FatherRRQuestion | For the Institute's position in the Commonwealth to be secure, the Railroad must be eliminated.

387 | Player Default: I can take care of them. | {relieved} Good, good. I don't enjoy asking you to put yourself in harm's way, but this is so important. | A1a | ||
388 | Player Default: I won't do that to them. | {disappointed} Even knowing that they would kill all of us, you included, to get what they want?![]() | B1a | ||
389 | I'm sorry, but consider this an order. It must be done. I'll expect a report when they've been eliminated. | B1b | |||
390 | Player Default: There has to be another solution here. Something less violent. | I'm afraid the time for hesitation has passed. We must act decisively, and we must act now. Will you do it? | Player Default: I can take care of them. | X1a | |
391 | Player Default: Is this really necessary? | I'm afraid it is. I take no pleasure in it, but it must be done, for the safety of everyone in the Institute. And it must be done now. Are you willing? | Player Default: I can take care of them. | Y1a | |
392 | Inst306Stage10FatherScene | Ah, there you are. | Father: You've met with the Directorate? I assume they made their intentions known. | A | |
393 | Father: The depth of your involvement with them has been called into question, repeatedly. I'm sure you can guess by whom. | {relieved} You can imagine my relief when I'd learned that you have, apparently, already taken care of that problem. | Father: I am sorry. I know it was likely difficult for you. | A1a | |
394 | Father: You've met with the Directorate? I assume they made their intentions known. | {Question} It was difficult for them to reach the decision to engage in open hostility. What about you? Do you agree with their decision? | Player Default: It's the only way we can ensure the Institute's safety. That makes it the right thing to do. | A1a | |
395 | Player Default: I can't lie. They're allies. | {deeply disappointed} Well, I appreciate your honesty. | Father: I won't ask for details. I'm sure I don't want to know. | A1a | |
396 | Player Default: They mean nothing to me. Never have. | I'll admit, I'm relieved to hear that. | Father: Then I certainly hope I can count on you for what needs to be done. | B1a | |
397 | Player Default: How I feel about them isn't important. | No, it is important. It's the only thing that matters right now. | Father: For the Institute's position in the Commonwealth to be secure, the Railroad must be eliminated. Completely. | X1a | |
398 | Player Default: Does it even matter? What are you getting at? | I think it's obvious. | Father: For the Institute's position in the Commonwealth to be secure, the Railroad must be eliminated. Completely. | Y1a | |

400 | Player Default: It's the only way we can ensure the Institute's safety. That makes it the right thing to do. | I'm glad you agree. None what comes next will be easy; that conviction may help keep us all going. | Father: You know, father, it's no secret that you worked with the Railroad in order to first reach the Institute. | A1a | |
401 | Player Default: I think it's a mistake to lash out at anyone. | It should be clear by now that if we wait, we will be destroyed. Acting swiftly is the only way to secure our position. | Father: You know, father, it's no secret that you worked with the Railroad in order to first reach the Institute. | B1a | |
402 | Player Default: There's no good answer. Taking action puts us at risk, but inaction could be deadly. | And yet, as a leader you must make those hard choices. | Father: You know, father, it's no secret that you worked with the Railroad in order to first reach the Institute. | X1a | |
403 | Player Default: How long has this been coming? When did they decide on this course of action? | The arrival of the Brotherhood's airship was the final straw, really. There's just too much at stake. We... You... can't afford to lose it all. | Father: You know, father, it's no secret that you worked with the Railroad in order to first reach the Institute. | Y1a | |

407 | Father: The depth of your involvement with them has been called into question, repeatedly. I'm sure you can guess by whom. | The question is: where do you stand with them now? Do you count them amongst your allies? | Player Default: I can't lie. They're allies. | A1a | |
408 | Inst306Stage10FatherUnsure | Father: This is a question you cannot avoid. | Are you willing to eliminate them for the sake of our future? | Player Default: I can take care of them. | A1a |
409 | These people are driven to destroy everything we've created. | Father: They are insane, and they must be dealt with. That is why I need to know whether you consider them allies. | A1a | ||

414 | Player Default: It was tough, yeah. | I assure you that there was no other way. Their fanaticism wouldn't have allowed it. | A1a | ||
415 | Player Default: Nope, not a problem at all. | {slightly disappointed} I regret that it came to this, even if you don't. There was just no way to compromise with those people. | B1a | ||
416 | Player Default: It needed to be done, and so it's done. | Make no mistake. It's never that easy, not for any of us. | X1a | ||
417 | Player Default: You're confident the Railroad is finished? | As confident as we can be. It was always a loose network, but with the key players gone...![]() | Y1a | ||
418 | It's not impossible that they'll be back some day, but it will take them time. | Y1b | |||

505 | Take care of Doctor Filmore, if you would. She's eager, but doesn't have much experience above ground. | A | |||

515 | Shaun: While you were working with Dr. Filmore, a small team was dispatched elsewhere in the Commonwealth. | Dr. Thompson was tasked with... inviting someone from the Commonwealth to join the Institute. | Player Default: Sounds simple enough. | A1a | |
516 | Player Default: Sounds simple enough. | It was supposed to be, yes. | Shaun: There was no indication that this would be a problem, but the arrival of the team was an unwelcome surprise to mister Wallace. | A1a | |
517 | Player Default: Let me guess... He botched the job. | It is unclear exactly what happened, but at this time I am not concerned with placing blame. | Shaun: There was no indication that this would be a problem, but the arrival of the team was an unwelcome surprise to mister Wallace. | B1a | |
518 | Player Default: That sounds... unusual. I thought you didn't let anyone in here. | Usually you'd be correct. This time, however, an exception was made. | Shaun: There was no indication that this would be a problem, but the arrival of the team was an unwelcome surprise to mister Wallace. | X1a | |

522 | Player Default: We handled them just fine. | That's what Dr. Filmore reported. I'm quite pleased at the results; it would've been a terrible setback to lose that technology to those savages. | Shaun: The Brotherhood's intervention must be placed in a larger context, however. Given their penchant for hoarding technology... | A1a | |

627 | Player Default: "Collateral damage?" She was murdered! | Killed, yes. Murdered? I'm not so sure about that. Still... I do regret never having known him. | Shaun: For many years I never questioned who my parents were; I accepted my situation and that was that. | B2a | |
628 | Player Default: You don't remember... you didn't see it the way I did. It was... brutal. | Yes, I'm sure it was. Sadly the world has become a brutal, unforgiving place. | Shaun: For many years I never questioned who my parents were; I accepted my situation and that was that. | X1a | |
629 | Player Default: "Collateral Damage?" Is that all it is to you? | I forget that it's been such a short time for you.![]() | Y1a | ||
630 | I don't have any direct memories, and I've had my entire life to cope with the loss. | Y1b | |||
631 | Has it always been easy? Of course not. But I've done my best to move on and live my life. | Shaun: For many years I never questioned who my parents were; I accepted my situation and that was that. | Y1c | ||
632 | Player Default: "Collateral Damage?" Is that all it is to you? | What would you have me say? The world is a dangerous place... although I think maybe it always was. It's just a bit more honest about it now. | Shaun: For many years I never questioned who my parents were; I accepted my situation and that was that. | Y2a | |
633 | MQ207NewShaunQuestionsScene | Player Default: Very well. | The Institute is on the verge of some important breakthroughs. Your presence would be... appreciated as we approach them. | Shaun: I've been a part of something amazing here. I've helped to build a life for myself and the people of the Institute... | A1a |
634 | Shaun: The Institute is on the verge of some important breakthroughs. Your presence would be... appreciated as we approach them. | I've been a part of something amazing here. I've helped to build a life for myself and the people of the Institute...![]() | A1a | ||
635 | ...and now, after all these years, you have an opportunity to help with that. Doesn't that intrigue you? Isn't that what you want? | Player Default: Yes, that's what I want. | A1b | ||
636 | Player Default: Yes, that's what I want. | I know you have been through so much. I'm pleased to see it has not impaired your judgment. | Shaun: Forgive me. I'd assumed that after everything I'm sure you've seen above ground, you would be... more than a bit biased against us. | A1a | |
637 | Player Default: I won't be a part of this. I can't. | Why? Because of the reputation of the Institute? | Shaun: The Institute can provide a better life than anything above ground. | B1a | |
638 | Player Default: Maybe... I... I don't know. This is so much to take in. | I know, and I am sorry. You have been through so much in such a short time. | Shaun: The Institute can provide a better life than anything above ground. | X1a | |
639 | Player Default: You want me to stay here, in the Institute? | Yes, that is what I propose. Is it so hard to imagine? | Shaun: The Institute can provide a better life than anything above ground. | Y1a | |
640 | PlayerVoiceFemale01: So... | I know there's more for us to discuss, but... | Player Default: So you're in charge of the Institute? | A1a | |
641 | PlayerVoiceFemale01: So... | What else can I say to ease your mind? | Player Default: So you're in charge of the Institute? | A2a | |
642 | PlayerVoiceFemale01: So... | I know you must have questions. Please, anything I can do to help you understand. | Player Default: So you're in charge of the Institute? | A3a | |
643 | Player Default: I don't want to hear anymore right now. | Very well. | Shaun: The Institute is on the verge of some important breakthroughs. Your presence would be... appreciated as we approach them. | B1a | |
644 | MQ207NewShaunReconsiderScene | PlayerVoiceFemale01: Shaun... can we talk about this? | Have you reconsidered your decision? | Player Default: I've... changed my mind. I'll work with you. | A1a |
645 | Player Default: I've... changed my mind. I'll work with you. | Well, that's good to hear. All right, then... | Shaun: The Institute is now your home as much as it is mine. Please, take some time and get to know it. Meet the people you'll be working with. | A1a | |
646 | Player Default: Forget it. Never mind. | I see. Well, as I've said, you may see yourself out. | B1a | ||
647 | Player Default: I'm sorry. I'm not interested. | That's a shame. I had hoped for so much more.![]() | X1a | ||
648 | You may see yourself out. | X1b | |||
649 | Player Default: Shaun, isn't there some other option, some other way we could work things out? | You've seen the Commonwealth. You must have some idea of how this world works.![]() | Y1a | ||
650 | You're either with us, or you're not. I'm afraid it's that simple. | Player Default: I've... changed my mind. I'll work with you. | Y1b | ||
651 | MQ207NewShaunStartScene | Shaun: I was exactly what they needed. And so it was my DNA that became the basis of the synthetic organics used to create every human-like synth you see today. | I am their Father. Through Science, we are family. The synths, me... and you. | Player Default: Shaun... It's really you... | A1a |
652 | Shaun: Please try and keep an open mind. I recognize that you are emotional, and that your journey here has been fraught with challenges. | {Friendly} Let's start anew. I am Father. Welcome to the Institute. | Player Default: Give me Shaun. The real Shaun. Right now. | A1a | |
653 | {Concerned} Fascinating.... but disappointing. The child's responses were not at all what I anticipated. | Shaun: He's a prototype, you understand. We're only just now beginning to explore the effects of extreme emotional stimuli. | A1a | ||
654 | Shaun: He's a prototype, you understand. We're only just now beginning to explore the effects of extreme emotional stimuli. | {Apologetic} Please try and keep an open mind. I recognize that you are emotional, and that your journey here has been fraught with challenges. | Shaun: Let's start anew. I am Father. Welcome to the Institute. | A1a | |
655 | Player Default: Give me Shaun. The real Shaun. Right now. | {Apologetic} I know, I know. You've gone to such lengths to find him. | Player Default: Just... Help me understand what's going on here. | A1a | |
656 | Player Default: I could kill you. Right here, right now. | {Somber} Yes. Yes you could. And I would be powerless to stop you. | Player Default: Just... Help me understand what's going on here. | B1a | |
657 | Player Default: This is... insane. All of it. | {soothing, sympathetic / Apologetic} The degree of trauma you're experiencing right now is understandable... Please, just try to relax. I know this is all difficult to take in. | Player Default: Just... Help me understand what's going on here. | X1a | |
658 | Player Default: Father? That's your name? Your title? | {Apologetic} Father is my unofficial title. It's what I've come to mean to the people of the Institute. Just as... As you mean to your son. To Shaun. | Player Default: Just... Help me understand what's going on here. | Y1a | |
659 | Player Default: Father? That's your name? Your title? | {Apologetic} Father is my unofficial title. It's what I've come to mean to the people of the Institute. Just as... As you are a parent to your son. To Shaun. | Player Default: Just... Help me understand what's going on here. | Y2a | |
660 | Player Default: I promised answers, and answers you shall have. | {Apologetic} But... I need you to realize that this... situation... is far more complicated than you could have imagined. | Shaun: You have traveled very far, and suffered a great deal, to find your son. Well, your tenacity and dedication have been rewarded. | A1a | |
661 | Shaun: You have traveled very far, and suffered a great deal, to find your son. Well, your tenacity and dedication have been rewarded. | {Grateful} It's good to finally meet you, after all this time. It's me. I am Shaun. | Shaun: I am... your son. | A1a | |
662 | Player Default: It's really you... After all this time... | {relieved / Relieved} Yes, it's true. | Shaun: In the Vault, you had no concept of the passage of time. You were released from your pod, and went searching for the son you'd lost. | A1a | |
663 | Player Default: Bullshit. | {Surprised} Is it? After all the things you've seen and experienced in the Commonwealth? Think about it... | Shaun: In the Vault, you had no concept of the passage of time. You were released from your pod, and went searching for the son you'd lost. | B1a | |
664 | Player Default: Oh come on. That's crazy! | {compassionate, sympathetic / Apologetic} I assure you, I am completely sane. And entirely honest. | Shaun: In the Vault, you had no concept of the passage of time. You were released from your pod, and went searching for the son you'd lost. | X1a | |
665 | Player Default: How... is that even possible? | I know this is a lot to take in. | Shaun: In the Vault, you had no concept of the passage of time. You were released from your pod, and went searching for the son you'd lost. | Y1a | |
666 | Player Default: Yes, it's true. | {Apologetic} In the Vault, you had no concept of the passage of time. You were released from your pod, and went searching for the son you'd lost. | Shaun: But then you learned that your son was no longer an infant, but a 10 year old boy. You believed that ten years had passed. | A1a | |
667 | Shaun: In the Vault, you had no concept of the passage of time. You were released from your pod, and went searching for the son you'd lost. | {Apologetic} But then you learned that your son was no longer an infant, but a 10 year old boy.

668 | Shaun: But then you learned that your son was no longer an infant, but a 10 year old boy. You believed that ten years had passed. | {Apologetic} Is it really so hard to accept that it was not ten, but sixty years? That is the reality. | Shaun: And here I am. Raised by the Institute, and now its leader. | A1a | |
669 | Shaun: Is it really so hard to accept that it was not ten, but sixty years? That is the reality. | And here I am. Raised by the Institute, and now its leader. | Player Default: It... It wasn't right, what they did. Taking you from me like that. | A1a | |
670 | Player Default: It... It wasn't right, what they did. Taking you from me like that. | {Apologetic} To you, that would certainly seem true. But to the Institute... It made all the sense in the world. | Shaun: At that time, the year 2227, the Institute had made great strides in synth production. But it was never enough. | A1a | |
671 | Player Default: They stole you! Kidnapped you! It wasn't right! | {Apologetic} Right, wrong... irrelevant. It was necessary. The Institute believed humanity's future depended on it. | Shaun: At that time, the year 2227, the Institute had made great strides in synth production. But it was never enough. | B1a | |
672 | Player Default: Hell of a story, but... I guess it does make sense. | I'm glad you're willing to accept the truth. It's quite encouraging. | Shaun: At that time, the year 2227, the Institute had made great strides in synth production. But it was never enough. | X1a | |
673 | Player Default: But why? Why take a child? Why take you? | Ah, now that's the question, isn't it? "Why me?" | Shaun: At that time, the year 2227, the Institute had made great strides in synth production. But it was never enough. | Y1a | |
674 | Player Default: To you, that would certainly seem true. But to the Institute... It made all the sense in the world. | {Confident} At that time, the year 2227, the Institute had made great strides in synth production. But it was never enough. | Shaun: Scientific curiosity, and the goal of perfection, drove them ever onward. What they wanted was... the perfect machine. | A1a | |
675 | Shaun: At that time, the year 2227, the Institute had made great strides in synth production. But it was never enough. | {Confident} Scientific curiosity, and the goal of perfection, drove them ever onward.

What they wanted was... the perfect machine. | {Confident} So they followed the best example thus far - the human being. Walking, talking, fully articulate... Capable of anything. | Player Default: So the weird science experiments needed specimens. That's why they took you. | A1a | |
677 | Player Default: Shaun... It's really you... | {pleased} It really is. | Shaun: I know there's more for us to discuss, but... | A1a | |
678 | Player Default: Sixty years... so much time, wasted... | I know. | Shaun: I know there's more for us to discuss, but... | X1a | |
679 | Player Default: And you... You've been down here the whole time? | I have, yes. | Shaun: I know there's more for us to discuss, but... | Y1a | |
680 | Shaun: Fascinating.... but disappointing. The child's responses were not at all what I anticipated. | {Apologetic} He's a prototype, you understand.

682 | Player Default: I want answers, asshole. Now. | {Irritated} Under the circumstances, I will forgive your... Vulgarity. | Shaun: But... I need you to realize that this... situation... is far more complicated than you could have imagined. | B1a | |
683 | Player Default: God, all we're missing are the teacups and the White Rabbit... | {mildly amused / Amused} Ah, levity. Excellent. A sure sign that you adapt quickly to stressful environments. | Shaun: But... I need you to realize that this... situation... is far more complicated than you could have imagined. | X1a | |
684 | Player Default: I'll make this very simple. Where is my son? | He's here, in the Institute. Closer than you think. | Shaun: But... I need you to realize that this... situation... is far more complicated than you could have imagined. | Y1a | |
685 | Shaun: But... I need you to realize that this... situation... is far more complicated than you could have imagined. | {Impressed} You have traveled very far, and suffered a great deal, to find your son.

687 | Player Default: So the weird science experiments needed specimens. That's why they took you. | In a manner of speaking, yes. | Shaun: The Institute endeavored to create synthetic organics. The most logical starting point, of course, was human DNA. | A1a | |
688 | Player Default: Yeah, you lost me. I don't see the point of any of this. | You don't see the connection? Let me try to explain. | Shaun: The Institute endeavored to create synthetic organics. The most logical starting point, of course, was human DNA. | B1a | |
689 | Player Default: I think I see where this is going... | Then perhaps you already understand why it was necessary for the Institute to acquire me. | Shaun: The Institute endeavored to create synthetic organics. The most logical starting point, of course, was human DNA. | X1a | |
690 | Player Default: Human synths? Really? | {correcting an error / Stern} Human-like synths. A great distinction. | Shaun: The Institute endeavored to create synthetic organics. The most logical starting point, of course, was human DNA. | Y1a | |
691 | Player Default: In a manner of speaking, yes. | The Institute endeavored to create synthetic organics. The most logical starting point, of course, was human DNA. | Shaun: Plenty of that was available, of course, but it had all become corrupted. In this... wasteland... radiation affected everyone. | A1a | |
692 | Shaun: The Institute endeavored to create synthetic organics. The most logical starting point, of course, was human DNA. | Plenty of that was available, of course, but it had all become corrupted.

Another source was necessary. | A1a | |

In this... wasteland... radiation affected everyone. | Even in their attempts to shield themselves from the world above, members of the Institute had been exposed.

709 | Player Default: Your Institute has done some horrible things. | {slightly offended} Yes, well... the world is not what it used to be. | Shaun: What about the people you've aided in order to get here? What atrocities have they committed? | B1a | |
710 | Player Default: I don't know what to do. | I realize that. It's why I'm trying to help you. | Shaun: I hope you can see that, rationally, the Institute is the only thing left in the world that's worth being part of. | X1a | |
711 | Player Default: How can you say that? How can you be so dismissive of all those people, everything they've done? | Because it is the simple truth, and I believe you know it too. | Shaun: I simply ask that you give the Institute.... me... a chance.

718 | Shaun: What about the people you've aided in order to get here? What atrocities have they committed? | These Minutemen, claiming to want to save the Commonwealth... from itself?

736 | Player Default: I'm afraid things here are different from the lawless wastes above. A society cannot be maintained without order. | While you may be my father, I am Father to the Institute. It follows my lead, and thus for now, you must as well. Will you trust me? | Player Default: All right, I'll go along with it. | B1a | |
737 | Player Default: I'm afraid things here are different from the lawless wastes above. A society cannot be maintained without order. | While you may be my mother, I am Father to the Institute. It follows my lead, and thus for now, you must as well. Will you trust me? | Player Default: All right, I'll go along with it. | B2a | |
738 | Player Default: All right, I'll go along with it. | {pleased} Excellent. | Shaun: The Institute is now your home as much as it is mine. Please, take some time and get to know it. Meet the people you'll be working with. | A1a | |
739 | Player Default: I can't afford to trust anyone. | {heartbroken, trying to hide it.} I see. I am... disappointed. | Shaun: I had certainly hoped we could work together, but every man must make his own decisions. If you choose to leave, I cannot force you to stay. | B1a | |
740 | Player Default: I just don't know... | I'm afraid there can be no more time for indecision. Please, let me show you what we can accomplish together. | Player Default: All right, I'll go along with it. | X1a | |
741 | Player Default: "Follow your lead?" Why do you get to call the shots? | {slightly annoyed} Because my entire life has taken place within these walls. I have studied, I have trained, I have devoted my life to the Institute.![]() | Y1a | ||
742 | {Stern} I have proven time and time again that the success of the Institute is my primary goal, and I have sacrificed a great deal along the way. | Y1b | |||
743 | I assure you, I gain nothing by lying to you. Will you trust me? | Player Default: All right, I'll go along with it. | Y1c | ||
744 | MQ207Stage150SynthScene | Player Default: You made a child synth... that looks like you. That's... it's... It's an abomination! | {disappointed / Irritated} It's a synth, not a human being. A simulacrum. Try to be more open-minded. | Shaun: I'll make sure it's brought back online in the near future. You'll have an opportunity to interact with him further. | B1a |
745 | Player Default: It seems like a strange choice, on more than one level. | {sympathetic, proud / Apologetic} I can understand how it might seem that way. It was... it is, something new. New discoveries are always welcome. | Shaun: I'll make sure it's brought back online in the near future. You'll have an opportunity to interact with him further. | X1a | |
746 | Player Default: Why build it to look like you? | {proud} We'd advanced the technology behind synths to a point where this struck me as an interesting variation.![]() | Y1a | ||
747 | {proud} A new angle, if you will. Modeling it after myself seemed only natural, what with Institute records on my genetics and physiology. | Shaun: I'll make sure it's brought back online in the near future. You'll have an opportunity to interact with him further. | Y1b | ||
748 | Player Default: Yes, but... not the Shaun you were looking for. In some ways, the synth is far closer to what you expected. | I wouldn't claim to know everything that you're feeling, but... If in some small way the boy's presence can help, I hope you'll keep an open mind. | A1a | ||
749 | PlayerVoiceFemale01: Shaun, about this synth... | {proud / Neutral} You mean the child? It's a fascinating project, really. There are issues to be solved, of course, but we've made remarkable progress. | Player Default: He's definitely impressive. | A1a | |
750 | Player Default: He's definitely impressive. | {proud} Yes, it's pushed our technology to the limit. We've gained some valuable insights in terms of both hardware and software. | Shaun: I'll make sure it's brought back online in the near future. You'll have an opportunity to interact with him further. | A1a | |
751 | Player Default: Yes, it's pushed our technology to the limit. We've gained some valuable insights in terms of both hardware and software. | I'll make sure it's brought back online in the near future. You'll have an opportunity to interact with him further. | Shaun: But... I'll admit, I'm curious. As a parent looking for his child, looking for the younger version of me... What do you think? | A1a | |
752 | Shaun: I'll make sure it's brought back online in the near future. You'll have an opportunity to interact with him further. | But... I'll admit, I'm curious. As a parent looking for his child, looking for the younger version of me... What do you think?![]() | A1a | ||
753 | {Question} Do you think you could love him? Like you would a real boy? | Player Default: I don't need a synth. I found the real Shaun. | A1b | ||
754 | Player Default: I don't need a synth. I found the real Shaun. | Yes, but... not the Shaun you were looking for. In some ways, the synth is far closer to what you expected. | Shaun: I wouldn't claim to know everything that you're feeling, but... If in some small way the boy's presence can help, I hope you'll keep an open mind. | A1a | |
755 | Player Default: It's not you. It's not even human. I could never love that. | No, perhaps not. But in many ways, he matches what you've been searching for all this time. | Shaun: I wouldn't claim to know everything that you're feeling, but... If in some small way the boy's presence can help, I hope you'll keep an open mind. | B1a | |
756 | Player Default: This is all... it's too much. I just don't know anymore. | I understand. You've been through quite a lot. | Shaun: I wouldn't claim to know everything that you're feeling, but... If in some small way the boy's presence can help, I hope you'll keep an open mind. | X1a | |
757 | Player Default: Seriously? You really believe a human could love a synth? | That's... a difficult question. I suppose it depends on how closely we've managed to mimic human behavior and emotions.![]() | Y1a | ||
758 | Yours is a unique position. Possibly the only one that's truly able to answer these questions right now. | Shaun: I wouldn't claim to know everything that you're feeling, but... If in some small way the boy's presence can help, I hope you'll keep an open mind. | Y1b | ||
759 | - | {disappointed} It's time for you to leave. | |||
760 | {disappointed} You'll have to go now. I'm sorry. | ||||
761 | {disappointed} I wish things had gone differently. |

769 | Player Default: If you help me, we can minimize casualties on both sides. | Coming from someone who has stormed the Institute and plans to destroy it? Forgive me if I don't believe you. | Player Default: Shaun, I... I hoped there was something more I could do. I wanted to save you. | X2a | |

776 | Player Default: I'm sorry it's come to this, Shaun. | You're sorry? You can't be that sorry, if you're here going through with it. | ShaunOld: It's not enough that I lay here, dying... Now you plan on what, destroying everything? | A1a | |
777 | Player Default: I'm here to blow up your reactor, Shaun. Put an end to the Institute. | Well at least there's no need for guessing games now. | ShaunOld: It's not enough that I lay here, dying... Now you plan on what, destroying everything? | B1a | |
778 | Player Default: There's no going back, Shaun. The Institute has to be stopped. | And you've decided this for yourself? Or has it been fed to you by the corrupt societies above ground? | ShaunOld: It's not enough that I lay here, dying... Now you plan on what, destroying everything? | X1a | |
779 | Player Default: What's happened to you? Are you sick? | Don't pretend to care now. You had your chance to help me, and cast me aside instead. | ShaunOld: It's not enough that I lay here, dying... Now you plan on what, destroying everything? | Y1a | |
780 | ShaunOld: It's not enough that I lay here, dying... Now you plan on what, destroying everything? | Tell me, then. Under what righteous pretense have you justified this atrocity? | Player Default: It's for the greater good. The Commonwealth deserves to determine its own fate. | A1a | |
781 | Player Default: It's for the greater good. The Commonwealth deserves to determine its own fate. | Spare me. You've spent time up there. You know as well as I that it's doomed. | ShaunOld: Well, none of it matters now, I suppose. You'll accomplish your task, and ruin humanity's best hope for the future. | A1a | |
