| 1 | ConvDiamondCityJohnCathy01Scene | 0013AAFD | John: Hey Ma. I was thinking of trying out a new look. Wanna be my guinea pig? | {you're always hard on your son, especially if he's trying something new / Stern} Not if it's going to be like the last mess you tried on me. | John: The top bun? Ma, that was the most popular haircut in town for weeks! All the ladies in the Upper Stands wanted one. | A1a |
| 2 | 0013AAFB | John: The top bun? Ma, that was the most popular haircut in town for weeks! All the ladies in the Upper Stands wanted one. | {Stern} And all of those were better than the half-assed job you did on me. You don't practice enough, Johnny. I keep telling you, but you don't listen. | John: Oh, I listen. All I friggin' do is listen... | A1a |
| 3 | ConvDiamondCityJohnCathy02Scene | 0013AAF9 | John: No Ma. You haven't. And for the record, me and Pa got on great. | {upset that your son isn't measuring up to his father / Stern} Your father was a real hair stylist, John. He never resorted to the cheap tricks and shortcuts you always pull. | John: Maybe that was because he just wanted to paint, Ma! | A1a |
| 4 | 0013AAF7 | | {upset with your son over some prior argument, you decide to push his buttons to get back at him / Stern} John, have I told you today how much your father would be disappointed in you? | John: No Ma. You haven't. And for the record, me and Pa got on great. | A1a |
| 5 | 0013AAF6 | John: Maybe he thought if he did everything perfect, you'd get off his back, and he'd have time to be himself. | {angry but also sad and upset that you never seem to get through to your son / Angry} And why is that so hard for you, huh? Is it so wrong that I want you to be the best? | John: I ain't havin' this conversation again, Ma. Just let me work, okay? | A1a |

| 8 | CathyGreetScene | 000A7D2D | | {player walks into your salon as you're gossiping about the mayor's secretary} You there. Talk some sense into my nitwit son. McDonough's secretary. Is she a synth? | Player Default: She's a synth. Definitely. | A |
| 9 | | Well, do you think McDonough's secretary is a synth or not? | Player Default: She's a synth. Definitely. | A |
| 10 | 0013A03C | Player Default: She's a synth. Definitely. | {Happy} Finally. Someone with some sense. | | A1a |
| 11 | 0013A03B | Player Default: No. I don't think so. | {Irritated} *sigh* Everyone around me is a moron. | | B1a |
| 12 | 0013A03A | Player Default: No idea. | {Stern} You don't know? What? Born without a brain between your ears? | | X1a |
| 13 | 0013A039 | Player Default: What? | {Puzzled} You know what a synth is, right? Those machine people the Institute makes? Look and act just like the real thing? | | Y1a |
| 14 | | {secretly jealous, bitter / Disgust} Only I think they made Geneva a little too perfect. No woman looks like she does. All... perky. | | Y1b |
| 15 | | So she's a synth, right? She has to be. | Player Default: She's a synth. Definitely. | Y1c |
| 16 | Player Default: What? | {shocked that the player doesn't know a very basic fact about the world. "Southie" refers to "South Boston" / Disbelief} Oh my god. Really? What hole did they drag you out of? Southie? | | Y2a |
| 17 | | {Disgust} The Institute are the ones who kidnap people. Replace them with synths? Not that McDonough would ever admit it. Paper's right about him. | | Y2b |
| 18 | | Are you going to answer my question? Geneva. Is she a synth? | Player Default: She's a synth. Definitely. | Y2c |
| 19 | CathyGreetSceneTrailoff01 | 0013A430 | John: You seriously going to take the opinion of some random stranger over your own son? | {Stern} If someone off the street can tell Geneva is one of those machine people, then so should you. | John: You JUST said no one could TELL the difference, Ma. Now will you leave my customers alone? | A1a |
| 20 | CathyGreetSceneTrailoff02 | 0013A42D | John: We're idiots? Just because we disagree with you? | {you were arguing about whether the mayor's secretary was a synth / Irritated} She's a synth, Johnny. Anyone with a brain in their head can figure that out. | John: You were JUST saying no one could TELL the difference, Ma. You wanna lay off? | A1a |
| 21 | CathyGreetSceneTrailoff03 | 0013A429 | John: You JUST said no one could tell the difference, Ma. He don't know if Geneva's a synth, and neither do you, so could you lay off? | {Stern} Don't you talk to your mother that way, Johnny. | | A1a |
| 22 | - | WaitingForPlayerInput | | {player is just standing there not saying anything / Puzzled} What are you? An idiot? Say something. | | |
| 23 | | {player is just standing there not saying anything / Puzzled} Not too quick, are you? | | |
| 24 | | {player is just standing there not saying anything / Puzzled} Forgotten how to speak? | | |
| 25 | Hello | | {general hellos to the player} I'm on break, dearie. | | |
| 26 | | {general hellos to the player} You want a haircut? Talk to Johnny. | | |
| 27 | | {general hellos to the player} You look terrible. Have my boy John straighten that mess on your head. | | |
| 28 | | {general hellos to the player} Johnny can make you look a little less ridiculous. | | |
| 29 | | {general hellos to the player} Can't a woman have some peace? | | |
| 30 | | {general hellos to the player} You need a haircut? My boy John's right over there. | | |
| 31 | | {general hellos to the player} The Salon's closed, so don't bother me. | | |
| 32 | | {general hellos to the player} Now where are my cigarettes? | | |
| 33 | | {general hellos to the player} What is it? I'm tired, dear. | | |
| 34 | | {general hellos to the player} Oh, go away. I'm busy. | | |
| 35 | | {general hellos to the player} What? Can't get a moment to myself? | | |
| 36 | | {begin with a cough, general hellos to the player} What is it? | | |
