| AliceMcBrideIntro
| I just wanted to meet you.
| Happy 50
| Oh! Well I'm Alice and you've already met my beau, Dusty. He's sweet, ain't he? I don't care what my mama said, I know how to pick 'em.

| I just wanted to meet you.
| Happy 50
| Oh! Well I'm Alice and that handsome stranger yonder is my husband Dusty. Going on fifty years, now.

| Neutral 50
| I keep waiting for him to leave me for some young thing with platinum blonde hair and hoop earrings, but he still sticks around.

| Says it's my cooking. I think it's because I know which Brahmin udder you can milk without getting kicked in the noggin.

| We set up this ranch years back when Novac was just getting settled.
| 5
|
| Neutral 50
| But now with all the danger on I-15, folks are starting to come through here from all over. Novac might just be the next Nevada boom town.

| AliceMcBridePeopleWhoLiveHere
| What do you think of the people who live here?
| Neutral 50
| Oh, we keep to ourselves, for the most part. Try not to pry. I think Jeannie May gets bothered that we aren't more sociable, but it's just our way.
| 7
|
| Neutral 50
| Ain't that we don't appreciate what she's done, managing this town like she has, but I worry she feels that way anyhow.
| 8
|
| Neutral 50
| Not that there ain't others who pry around here. That No-bark was skulking around our yard last week.
| 9
|
| Neutral 50
| <Laughs> I thought he was our cow-killer. Was about to lash him with our bullwhip till I saw who it was. He's harmless, though.
| 10
|
| Neutral 50
| Part of me wishes I could see things like he sees 'em, all full of mystery.

| DustyMcBrideTellMeWhatYouKnow
| What can you tell me about the attacks on your ranch?
| Neutral 50
| Well, it's the strangest thing. Last time it happened I could swear I heard someone cry out for help. Sounded like a big fella.
| 12
|
| Neutral 50
| But when we finally got up the gumption to go look outside all we found was our cattle. And I know what they sound like when they get upset.
| 13
|
| Neutral 50
| I can't imagine what went on. Dusty can probably tell you more about it.

| Neutral 50
| Sorry, I ain't really up to entertaining visitors right now. I'm worried about Dusty.

| SnipersRevengeBooneWife
| What can you tell me about Boone's wife?
| Neutral 50
| Boone. That's that sniper fella, works in the dinosaur, right? I only met them but once or twice.
| 17
|
| Neutral 50
| They seemed real happy together. I really oughtta to get to know them better. They're probably nice folk.
| 18
|
| SnipersRevengeComeOutside
| Come with me. There's something you should see, in front of the dinosaur.
| Neutral 50
| It's kinda late, but I guess if it's important to you.

| Can we talk about something else?
| Neutral 50
| {Slight surprise} Oh. Well, all right.

|
| VDialogueNovacNobarkName
| How did No-bark get his name?
| Neutral 50
| I'm not sure who started it. It wasn't a very nice name, but he took to calling himself by it, so we all had to.
| 21
|
| Neutral 50
| I don't even remember what his real name is.
| 22
|
| Neutral 50
| Anyway, I think it comes from that expression that people say when you're crazy - that not all of your dogs are barking. Poor No-bark.
