#	Dialog Topic	Form ID	Response Text	Script Notes
1	005DC503	005DC58B	Interesting... not like the others. Very well. Task entered. Estimated wait time 14,320 hours, 12 minutes.
2	005DC504	005DC590	I do apologize, but you must wait in the queue with everyone else.
3	005DC505	005DC584	If you wish to tour the facility, please enter decontamination to your left.
4	005DC506	005DC585	Affirmative General. Priority adjusted. New estimated wait time, 6,598 hours, 42 minutes.
5	005DC508	005DC591	Very well. Answering questions is one of my secondary functions. It would be inhospitable of me not to comply.
6	005DC50B	005DC58F	In the meantime, if you wish to tour the facility, please enter decontamination to your left.
7	005DC50C	005DC58D	Task queue interrupted. It seems as though we have a visitor. Welcome to Enclave Research Facility Site J. May I ask the reason for your visit today?
8	005DC510	005DC58A	You may manually activate the transmitter via the communications center. However, I do not recommend that. It is a very long walk.
9	005DC512	005DC589	This is the research center of the Enclave's Appalachia division. Additional information is classified.
10	005DC514	005DC58E	My name is SODUS, Single-Operation Direction and Utility System. I help run this facility.
11	005DC516	005DC587	Not for many years now. That know-it-all, MODUS, claimed to have no use for this facility anymore and cut all communications.
12	005DC517	005DC58C	Very well. Was there anything else I can assist you with?
13	005DC51E	005DC546	Warning: Visitor detected in restricted area. Security, please assist.
14	005DC51F	005DC534	Task 151984, J. Jefferson. Disable security cameras in the mainframe core. Task denied.
15	005DC521	005DC542	Task 151983, J. Jefferson. Perform system wide reset. Task denied. System operating as expected.
16	005DC522	005DC53F	It seems you've dispatched them, but there are more. It would be a shame if they finished you off.
17	005DC523	005DC53E	Please forgive the mess. The residents became rather... unruly, after the accident.
18	005DC524	005DC53D	Task 151982, G. Walton. Provide status of water recycling system. Duplicate issue. Ignoring.
19	005DC525	005DC535	My, what intestinal fortitude you have! The organic material up above must be almost inedible.
20	005DC526	005DC53C	Your nutrients must be running low. Please help yourself to any supplies you need.
21	005DC527	005DC543	My residents must have had a good reason to open all those cells at the time.
22	005DC528	005DC536	There you are. Welcome back. My apologies.
23	005DC529	005DC549	Task 151981, K. Jones. Increase barometric pressure in holding cell 2C to 2,400 millibarts. Error: Unknown term, "millibarts". Please re-submit task.
24	005DC52A	005DC548	Task 000, Unknown User. Priority one. Open all cell doors in the holding cell area.
25	005DC52B	005DC53A	Task 151980, D. Evans. Raise temperature in the lab to 22 degrees Celsius. Task complete. Please verify.
26	005DC52C	005DC537	Task 151979, G. Walton. Feed the giant moth subject before it gets upset. Error: "Moth Subject" missing.
27	005DC52D	005DC545	Error: Visitor location unknown. Resuming queue.
28	005DC52E	005DC539	Warning: Biological hazard detected in the research lab. Please evacuate immediately.
29	005DC52F	005DC540	Task 151978, R. Wiggins. Turn on the god-damn lights in the living quarters. Task complete. Please verify.
30	005DC530	005DC538	My apologies, there appears to be a malfunction with the decontamination showers. Entering task to investigate.
31	005DC531	005DC541	It is requested that all visitors enter decontamination. Do not worry, it will be quick and painless.
32	005DC532	005DC586	How may I assist you?
33		005DC91A	Sorry you had to see that.
34		005E4397	This appears to be a manual console for the transmitter. I need a moment to figure out the controls.
35			The two of you are to find the power supply and install the Ultracite battery cell that Scribe Valdez sent us with.
36		005E4398	Let's get this done quickly. Leaving Rahmani to fiddle with the transmitter as she pleases doesn't sit well with me.
37		005E4399	Did Knight Shin get held up?
38			Well, perhaps it's for the best. This gives me the opportunity to ask you something.
39			You've been a tremendous asset to the Brotherhood's efforts. And I'd like you to continue to be one.
40			But we can't do that with the shadows of the Elders looming over our shoulders.
41			They're cowards, too obsessed with preventing disaster to pave a new way forward. Under their guidance we will never rebuild the world.
42			We'll stay rooted in place, guarding a hoard of technology that can be used for neither good nor evil.
43			Here in Appalachia we have an opportunity to make a real difference. To help the people of today build their own future.
44			So let's cut free and take that opportunity. Tell me, Initiate. Are you with me?
45		005E4885	Visitor, it is required that you leave immediately. Failure to comply will result in extermination.
46		005E4886	Warning... Operating System not found.
47		005E527E	Good work securing an entrance, Initiate. Have you located the transmitter?
48		005E530A	Soon you'll see the importance of this mission.
49		005E530B	There's no time for conversation.
50		005E530D	Focus on the mission.
51		005E530E	Now isn't the time.
52		005E530F	You have your orders.
53		005E7C0F	Have you talked to the others recently? I've been trying to get a moment with them, but things are still so busy. Seems our time slots never align.
54		005EA05D	Ready to track down that signal?
55	005DC533	005DC588	Task complete. Please verify.
56	005DC6C4	005DC6C5	Task 151977, J. Rodriguez. Lower temperature to 20 degrees Celsius in the lab. Task complete. Please verify.
57	005DC906	005DC91B	Let's get down to business, shall we?
58			If we can find the source of the signal I detected, we should be able to use it to send a message to Elder Maxson on the west coast.
59			I tracked the signal to an area northwest of Vault 76. You'll need to go and check it out in person.
60			Maybe you'll get lucky, but... I suspect the source of the transmission won't be easy to find.
61			Devices that can transmit at this frequency are rare. The only ones I know of were built at advanced military facilities.
62	005DC907	005DC90A	What's this about? I thought I made it clear that our first priority is strengthening our presence in Appalachia.
63	005DC908	005DC90B	That's excellent news, Scribe Valdez. Follow up with me as soon as you have the coordinates.
64	005DC909	005DC90C	Paladin, Knight, you'll want to hear this.
65			I picked up a low-frequency signal in the area. It's weak, but I'm close to narrowing down the coordinates.
66			If we can find and boost the source of that signal, we might be able to use it to get in touch with California.
67	005DD6D8	005DD6D9	They're still... around. You will find most of them in the cafeteria area.
68	005E4371	005E439B	And she does it time and time again. Regardless of losses incurred, mistakes made...
69			Hold a moment, Initiate. You mean to say you agree with me?
70	005E4373	005E4396	Take your time. I'll need to wrestle with this device for awhile. I don't know how Scribe Valdez does it.
71	005E4375	005E4395	I'm saying that this message must not be sent.
72	005E4377	005E4393	It's good to have your trust. With your support, there's nothing we can't do.
73	005E48DF	005E48EC	After all you've done for us, I suppose you deserve an answer.
74			Their relationship has been... rocky, since a certain incident on our journey here. It's kind of a sensitive topic for everyone.
75			I thought they'd be able to work things out over time, but it's only gotten worse. I'm honestly kind of worried.
76			But... maybe contact with Elder Maxson will get them back on track. I hope it does.
77	005E48E0	005E48E9	It was one of our orders. After setting up in Appalachia, we were to re-establish contact, make a report, and receive our next assignment.
78			It's not that the Paladin has directly disobeyed that order, but... she's been more focused on helping Appalachia.
79			Being in that position, as the leader of this whole operation, I can't even imagine how much she has to think about.
80			I'm just trying to support both her and the Knight as much as I can. And hopefully get them back on the same page.
81	005E48E1	005E48F0	Because other transmitters don't reach that far. The one they were using at Fort Defiance is out of commission, permanently.
82			But low-frequency signals - like the one I'm detecting - they travel incredible distances, even passing through mountains and oceans without a hitch.
83			During wartime, they were used to transmit signals to submarines. Pretty cool, right?
84	005E48E2	005E48ED	I'm glad you asked! It may not work, in its current state. But do you remember what we found in the Atlas substructure?
85			An incredibly powerful, compact, Ultracite battery cell. With one of those, we could easily boost the transmitter back to its full function.
86			Lucky for us, I've just managed to reverse engineer the cell. Let's think of this as its final test.
87	005E48E3	005E48EA	Stay safe out there. We'll be right on your tail.
88	005E48E4	005E48F1	Enough, Shin. We have a lead now. Let's focus on that.
89	005E48E5	005E48EE	We would still have no leads, if it were up to you.
90	005E48E6	005E48EB	Since our arrival, every last ounce of my effort has gone toward establishing the Brotherhood as an effective force of action in Appalachia.
91			Everything we've done here has been necessary. And before Valdez's report, we had no leads on a long-distance communicator.
92	005E48E7	005E48F2	This isn't a field trip, Paladin.
93			When we left, Elder Maxson ordered us to restore communications as soon as we arrived in Appalachia. You've delayed that order long enough.
94	005E48E8	005E48EF	My... apologies, Paladin.
95			The Knight kept talking about Elder Maxson's orders, so I set up a signal tracer to run in the background. It was my own initiative.
96	005E51F9	005E527C	It doesn't sound good.
97		005E7C0B	I'd like to see this voice try to stop us.
98		005E7C0C	No, she doesn't.
99	005E51FA	005E525B	What is that voice?
100		005E7C08	I suppose that's the AI?
101		005E7C09	She doesn't sound very friendly.
102	005E51FC	005E5251	Consider what's right, not just for the Brotherhood, but for the people we must protect.
103	005E51FE	005E5277	There's a thin line between order and blind obedience. At one time I may have trusted Shin to stay on the right side.
104			He has always been strict, dedicated, disciplined. But following these events, he became... guarded. He doesn't let up for even a second.
105			If he continues on this way, I worry he will lose sight of why he joined the Brotherhood in the first place.
106	005E5200	005E5267	Yes, I am responsible for the final outcome of all operations performed by this group, regardless of individual choices made.
107			What happened is an irreparable tragedy. I carry the weight of the lives that were lost with every step I take. But I cannot allow it to stop me.
108	005E5202	005E5255	This is not about me, Initiate. This is about the people we can help.
109			It's about the promise of a better future. One we can only deliver with our own, untethered hands.
110	005E5204	005E527B	You weren't there, Initiate. It was... harrowing. Those civilians trusted us to save them.
111			We... lost one of our own as well. Knight Connors. May he rest in peace.
112			We disobeyed orders, handing out those weapons instead of safeguarding them. Perhaps it would have been forgivable, had we succeeded.
113			But the Elders would take this failure as proof of the danger of unrestrained technology.
114			They would double down on the fearful conservatism I've tried so hard to steer them away from.
115			We cannot let that happen. At this stage, the Brotherhood still has a chance to be something better.
116	005E5206	005E526B	It's a delicate matter, so don't expect me to speak freely of it again.
117	005E5208	005E525A	You must recall the Brotherhood weaponry we tasked you with retrieving these last few missions.
118			We had claimed the entire cache from a military facility in the Midwest. It was meant to stay under Brotherhood protection.
119			Until we came across a town under threat of a massacre by some Raiders. We equipped the townspeople with the weapons, and fought by their sides.
120			It was the only way to give them a chance. But it wasn't enough.
121			The Raiders won. They took possession of the weapons. And they've been running wild ever since.
122			It is my belief that we must learn from our mistakes. But Knight Shin hangs onto them.
123			He cannot move forward until he confronts the past, until he lays our guilt on display for the Elders.
124			I say that we can - that we must - move forward on our own.
125	005E5213	005E526C	In any case, I've made my choice. This cannot wait any longer.
126	005E5214	005E525C	This is the only way forward.
127	005E5215	005E5282	Allow me to take the first step.
128	005E5217	005E5270	If you wish to have any stake in your own destiny, Initiate, then you will need allies. I'd suggest you'd start thinking about who they are.
129	005E5219	005E525F	I'm sad to hear you say that. But if that is your stance, then so be it.
130			I cannot allow the misguided beliefs of one Initiate to determine the future of Appalachia.
131	005E521B	005E524C	You will be my ally in forging a new paradigm for the Brotherhood of Steel, and a brighter future for Appalachia.
132	005E521D	005E5272	Something happened during our journey to Appalachia. A mistake that cost the lives of an entire town, and likely countless more.
133			If Knight Shin gets an opportunity to speak with the Elders, he will confess to this incident, and to us breaking their direct orders.
134			We'll have our titles stripped, our influence rendered illegitimate. Everything we worked for here will be gone.
135			But if circumstances prevent us from establishing contact, we will continue on as a sanctioned offshoot of the Brotherhood of Steel.
136			We will be able to spread its authority and goodwill across the nation. Is that not something worth fighting for?
137	005E521F	005E5261	Re-establishing contact with the Elders will only shackle us. Possibly even destroy us. So we must disable this transmitter. Permanently.
138			This is a choice that can never be undone. So tell me.
139			Do you support the growth and outreach of the Appalachian Brotherhood of Steel, under the command of Paladin Leila Rahmani?
140			Or are you beholden to the fearful and outdated mandates of the Elders, to whom our very own Knight Daniel Shin vows his loyalty?
141	005E5221	005E5275	It's disappointing that you would respond with such shameless indifference to a worthwhile cause.
142			Perhaps it's a mistake to ask you at all. Even still, I'd like to know where I stand in the eyes of an outsider who's worked by our side.
143	005E5223	005E5265	This is not a betrayal, Initiate.
144	005E5226	005E5279	Paladin Rahmani is responsible for the lives of dozens of Initiates and countless civilians. One wrong choice for them, and that's it.
145			I won't argue about this. But I will order you to get back to the transmitter while I finish up here.
146			Think about what I said, Initiate. And think about what the Brotherhood stands for.
147	005E5227	005E5269	I wasn't sure that anyone else saw it but me.
148			Nevermind that. You just confirmed my growing suspicion that something needs to be done.
149			The Brotherhood of Steel is an institution built on the foundations of order, integrity, and discipline.
150			We are the Wasteland's only hope for a new world. But that world cannot be built with weak links.
151			I'll consider this more after the mission. Right now, you need to get back and keep on eye on Paladin Rahmani. I'll finish up here.
152			Ad victoriam.
153	005E5228	005E5258
154	005E522A	005E527F	It doesn't matter where her "heart" is. There are no "buts" in a life or death situation, Initiate.
155	005E522C	005E526D
156	005E522E	005E525D	No other Initiate has spoken out about Paladin Rahmani's irresponsible behavior.
157	005E5230	005E5283	A Paladin must be a leader first, and a person second.
158			Rahmani lets her own personal morals guide her. Her generosity, her over-confidence. And that idealism has a price.
159	005E5232	005E5262	Your stance is resolute. I appreciate that.
160	005E5234	005E524F	Paladin Rahmani's actions are unbecoming of her station.
161			She carelessly shares resources, takes unnecessary risks, and doles out her trust to anyone who takes an interest in joining us, regardless of merit.
162			The Brotherhood she's building... is not the one I believe in.
163	005E5235	005E5276	It's against everything I know and trust to disrespect my superiors. But it would be irresponsible to hold back my reservations any longer.
164	005E5237	005E5266
165	005E5239	005E5254	This way, Initiate. I believe the power supply should be in this area.
166	005E523A	005E527A	Have you forgotten your escapade into the Atlas substructure already? You and Valdez found something incredibly valuable down there.
167			An Ultracite battery cell. Right now, it's the only resource we have that can provide enough power to the transmitter.
168	005E523C	005E526A	Valdez said the signal was weak. If we want a clear message to reach the West Coast, we need the transmitter at full function.
169	005E523E	005E5259	Nothing we couldn't handle.
170		005E7C05	It's unfortunate that even terminal programs turn to violence.
171		005E7C06	There's no need to jump to conclusions. What matters is that we dealt with the threat.
172	005E523F	005E5280	The Initiate failed to mention there was still a homicidal AI trying to guard this place.
173		005E7C0D	I see now what the Initiate was talking about.
174		005E7C0E	Either the Initiate lied to us, or they're completely oblivious.
175	005E5241	005E525E	Moving forward, let's not waste any more time. Lead the way, Initiate.
176	005E5242	005E5284	I appreciate your service, but we can do without the attitude.
177	005E5244	005E5271	Excellent initiative. You can depend on us from here on.
178	005E5246	005E5260	Your diligence is appreciated.
179	005E5248	005E524D	I'll hold my tongue for the sake of the mission.
180			There's the Initiate. Let's hope they've done a thorough sweep of the area.
181	005E5249	005E5273	I'm quite aware of how dangerous it may be. That's all the more reason to spread the word.
182			The people must be allowed to make their own informed decisions.
183	005E524A	005E5263	We've hardly breached the surface of this place, Paladin. There's no telling how dangerous it is for trained personnel, let alone civilians.
184	005E524B	005E5250	This is quite the facility. I wonder how long it's been hidden here. If they don't already, the people of Appalachia deserve to know about this.
185	005E7BF1	005E7C04	What I wouldn't give for a moment of peace at Fort Atlas. Maybe someday.
186	005E7BF3	005E7C10	Then it's my lucky day. Come with me.
187	005E7BF5	005E7C01	Show some faith in them, Shin. They appear to have made it through the facility relatively unharmed.
188	005E7BF6	005E7BFF	I look forward to meeting her.
189	005E7BF7	005E7C07	Regardless of her methods, I have every confidence that the three of us can handle her.
190	005E7BF8	005E7C02	Your laid-back tone doesn't give me much confidence, Initiate.
191	005E7BF9	005E7C00	That doesn't sound like a threat.
192	005E7BFA	005E7C0A	How exactly does a terminal program go about killing someone?
193	005E7BFB	005E7C03	Are there any threats we need to know about?
194	005E8047	005E8048	Welcome, valued Enclave member.
195	005E8051	005E8054	Oh, have we not explained that to you yet? It should have been part of your Initiation...
196			Guess we just haven't had a chance to slow down. Sorry about that.
197			Above the Paladins are the Elders. And leading the Elders is High Elder Maxson.
198			He's the one who founded the Brotherhood, and decided to send us on our mission here.
199	005E8052	005E8056	Alright. Ready when you are.
200	005E8053	005E8055	Welcome, valued Enclave member.
201	005E84A1	005E84A2	Negative. My creators programmed me to assist visitors with extreme kindness and hospitality.
202	005E9EAC	005E9EAE	Registration successful.
203	005EA058	005EA05A	Okay. Come back to me when you're ready.
204	005EA059	005EA05B	Okay. I'll be in my workshop, when you're ready.	Awkward. A bit embarrassed that Rahmani and Shin just argued in front of the player
205	005EA43C	005EA43D	You said you're close to tracking down the signal, Valdez? Why don't we have our reliable Initiate assist you?
206	005EE6C2	005E524E	I believe in the Brotherhood of Steel. So much that I would rewrite its customs to lead it on the right path.
207	005EE84E	005E783C	Despite the circumstances, the Brotherhood needs us.
208	005EE84F	005EAC6C	This way, Initiate.
209	005EE851	005E526F	As you say. But as far as I'm concerned, this is already settled.
210	005EE852	005E71E7	Don't you see that protecting them is more important right now?
211			You and I will both return to the Fort and deal with the alert. We can settle our dispute later.
212	005EE853	005E71E8	I don't take orders from you anymore. Neither do the Initiates. We cannot have them confused on who to follow.
213	005EE854	005E5274	An alert? There could very well be an attack. We need to get back to the Initiates.
214	005EE855	005E5264	It's an emergency alert from Fort Atlas.
215	005EE856	005E5256	I have not turned my back on the Brotherhood, Shin. On the contrary, I will work harder than ever before to lead us forward.
216	005EE857	005E5252	And I've done wrong by them. I never thought I would be in a position to ask for their loyalty.
217			The Brotherhood must stand united. You've severed everything we rely on.
218	005EE858	005E5278	And you expect them to follow you? Authority is given to a leader by those who support them. The same Initiates who turn away from you in fear.
219	005EE859	005E5268	I have every intention of forging a better future, but this is not the way.
220			You've broken your Oath, Paladin. No... That title no longer belongs to you.
