I take it you talked to Paige?
|
excited
|
12
|
0055DE73
|
What's on your mind?
|
|
13
|
00564302
|
Wow, I feel like we are actually, finally going to find it after talking to Penny. I've never been this close. So, you ready to go?
|
|
14
|
00575B4E
|
Sorry, I need a moment. Can I just talk to you later, at Foundation?
|
|
15
|
00584874
|
Hey, I got the suit. Looks like we're good to go.
|
|
16
|
0058570B
|
Thank you for sparing my life.
|
|
17
|
00590A38
|
This is... I can't believe what's happening. I was certain that they killed her but here she is... working for them? It's too much to consider.
|
emotionally conflicted
|
18
|
00590A3B
|
So, this is how it ends...
|
cold, regret
|
19
|
00590A3C
|
I honestly can't say how relieved this makes me. There's still so much we need to figure out, though.
|
|
20
|
0059C266
|
I don't want any trouble. I'm here against my will.
|
|
24
|
005A23C7
|
Oh, it's you again. Hey.
|
|
25
|
0041B726
|
0041B752
|
Uhh... sure? That'd be great, actually! It had this biometric encoding and I think it'll work for a close relative like me but um, let's talk later.
|
taken aback by penny caring more about spy gadgets than being vengeful about spies, really happy she's going to help
|
26
|
You said you're recalibrating the robot? To do what exactly?
|
|
29
|
0041B728
|
0041B74D
|
Yes, they were spies. My parents were spies. They're both dead, alright? I was born here, I don't know about any of that.
|
nervously admitting something that might put you in danger
|
31
|
0041B72A
|
0041B75E
|
What, speak Chinese? I mean, it's been a while, but yeah.
|
guarded, trying to get back to questions not about yourself
|
34
|
0041B72C
|
0041B762
|
Bai yuanquan... White... fountainhead? Uhh... Oh, Whitespring! Duh.
|
(bai2 yuan2quan2) Sounding something out, coming to a realization while translating a location's name - ask MJ if you need them to speak chinese
|
35
|
Why seven though?
|
|
38
|
0041B72E
|
0041B74C
|
The entry you're looking for would've been broadcast daily since about... eleven years ago. Just read the stuff in brackets at the end when you find it.
|
|
39
|
0041B72F
|
0041B753
|
These logs look encoded, but like nothing I've seen before... I see the numerical headers you mentioned, though!
|
|
40
|
0041B730
|
0041B75F
|
Yep! Look for an entry that begins with 58 when you're in. That should list any entries related to our target.
|
|
43
|
0041B73D
|
0041B764
|
Alright! I'll see if we have anyone around here who can help out with the next part.
|
|
44
|
0041B740
|
0041B74E
|
Ah, no. I've been trying to find something for years and I'm so close now. So, yeah. I'm pretty firmly set on this.
|
you think that's kinda rude but you need them to help
|
45
|
0041B742
|
0041B761
|
Liberators like to gossip, speaking in lay terms. They ping each other whenever they see something interesting. It's actually kind of a design flaw.
|
|
46
|
0041B744
|
0041B756
|
So okay, hilariously... I'm looking for something that is designed to be invisible. Untraceable.
|
Glad to help but this helps you too
|
47
|
It's a suit that hides you from everything, even laser detection grids. Which will help out with Vault 79, right?
|
rhetorical question, very excited
|
48
|
0041B746
|
0041B74A
|
I did and I do, yep! But there's something we need to take care of first. It'll be worth it.
|
excited to help and get help
|
49
|
0055D8A6
|
0055D8B8
|
Because then the facility will almost certainly go into complete lockdown and you'll have to wait until it cycles back up.
|
|
50
|
0055D8A9
|
0055D8C4
|
Government facilities usually have a lot of security redundancies. There's almost no way to cut the lines fast enough to get past their laser grids.
|
|
51
|
So what if security just can't even see that you're there? That's what this tech does, and I know how to operate it.
|
|
52
|
0055D8AA
|
0055D8B3
|
Are you just agreeing out of anxiety? Okay, I'll try to boil this down while sounding five percent less confusing. Let's see...
|
|
53
|
We need to go take out a Liberator bot to see if it has a record of another piece of Chinese tech coming through here.
|
|
54
|
0055D8AB
|
0055D8B6
|
Potentially a lot of things were watching, but there's one that would've been designed to see it. Probably also relay that sighting, too.
|
|
55
|
But just sending that update could blow your cover, if you did it directly. Kind of defeats the purpose, right?
|
|
56
|
0055D8AC
|
0055D8B4
|
Nothing is completely untraceable. Think of it like a swimmer that's underwater. It might take a while but they have to pop up for air, right?
|
|
57
|
So there are always brief moments of exposure, even if it's only exposed to certain eyes. You get what I'm saying?
|
|
58
|
0055D8AE
|
0055D8B5
|
I know it's asking a lot, but you just gotta trust me for now.
|
|
59
|
0055D8AF
|
0055D8B9
|
I didn't have much choice in the matter, I assure you. Can we hold any further questions until I get to the point?
|
|
60
|
0055D8B1
|
0055D8B2
|
Would you believe me if I told you I learned about it from a spy?
|
|
61
|
0055DE13
|
0055DE18
|
Hornwright, huh? I'll bet she is. Alright, thanks for the heads up!
|
|
62
|
0055DE14
|
0055DE1A
|
I need to find someone good with robots. I'm alright with electrical stuff, but it's a software issue.
|
|
63
|
0055DE15
|
0055DE1B
|
Yep. Exactly! Hey, you're pretty good.
|
|
64
|
We're in luck, because I already know what was carrying the proxy signal. Liberator bots.
|
|
65
|
0055DE16
|
0055DE19
|
Hey, at least you're honest about it. Can you hold further commentary until the end, if you think I'm just wasting your time?
|
|
66
|
0055DE17
|
0055DE1C
|
Believe what you like, just give me the chance to prove it to you.
|
|
67
|
0055F9E4
|
0055F9F5
|
Alright, let's get this party started!
|
|
68
|
Oh, Penny showed me how to send a transmission to your Pip-Boy directly. In case you didn't know why you're hearing my voice suddenly.
|
|
69
|
I'm not a ghost, I swear.
|
laughingly
|
70
|
0055F9E5
|
0055F9F1
|
Wow, existential. For a perfectly preserved slice of pie maybe? I'd kill someone for a great slice of pie, full disclosure.
|
Mostly kidding but you love your pie
|
71
|
If you help me find the robot, we can find a spy suit, and then I can wear the spy suit for the vault job. Got it?
|
|
72
|
0055F9E7
|
0055F9F3
|
Well, you'd be wrong then. You don't need to be such a jerk, I just want to help.
|
This actually hurts your feelings
|
73
|
0055F9E9
|
0055F9F6
|
Oh. Well, my parents both used to take me along when they went... scavenging. They were really good at it, so I picked up some good pointers.
|
scavenging in a loose sense
|
74
|
So I guess I've been doing this most of my life. I'd guess a lot of people born after the war and outside of vaults could say the same.
|
shrug
|
75
|
0055F9EB
|
0055F9F7
|
Excellent, thank you for the heads up! I was just going to read Paige's diary to find out who to talk to.
|
|
76
|
0055F9ED
|
0055F9F2
|
I feel like I recognize that name... is she good with robots? I can do electrical stuff but hacking and whatnot is beyond me.
|
|
77
|
0055F9EF
|
0055F9F4
|
Yes! Exactly. This tech allowed for other tech from the same origin to see it and report back. If the wearer wasn't where they were supposed to be...
|
you're talking to someone smart like you, what a relief!
|
78
|
BANG!
|
hyper person explaining that something would get you shot
|
79
|
Right? Yeah, so we just have to get that other tech, which is easy to find by comparison, and check its logs.
|
Answering your own question because it's too exciting
|
80
|
Which means that we need to go out and grab one of those jumpy little Liberator bots. Yeah, the untraceable spy tech? It's Chinese.
|
You should probably cut down on the energy drinks, to like ... only 100 a day
|
82
|
005600C8
|
005600CA
|
Thanks again for lending a hand.
|
|
83
|
005642E7
|
005642FC
|
Because it's complicated. It's hard to know how someone will react, even though I'm not responsible for my parents actions.
|
|
84
|
005642E9
|
00564304
|
Okay, fair enough.
|
|
85
|
005642EB
|
005642FE
|
I'm not a communist. Yet the glory of unfettered capitalism is all around us. We're standing in its ruins. You do see that, right?
|
|
86
|
You can revel in it all you like, but it still stinks of death and idiocy to me.
|
|
87
|
I'm not interested in continuing this conversation. So ask me something else or let's get a move on.
|
|
88
|
005642ED
|
00564305
|
I honestly have no idea. I was born here sometime after the war and I've lived here my whole life. Mostly in the Capital Wasteland.
|
|
89
|
My parents didn't talk about it much. I know they didn't want to go back, that they weren't supposed to have me or fall in love with each other.
|
|
90
|
We were just a normal family of survivors, except sometimes my parents had to go do things. Then one day my mom just never came home.
|
|
91
|
005642EF
|
005642FF
|
You shouldn't trust anyone out here, not really. Just let my actions speak for themselves.
|
|
92
|
005642F1
|
00564306
|
I'm telling you that I'm not. Are you exactly like your parents?
|
|
93
|
005642F3
|
00564300
|
Okay, ask me anything you want to know.
|
|
94
|
005642F5
|
00564307
|
Sounds like a plan. Oh, don't forget our little recalibrated friend here.
|
giving someone a hand-held robot
|
95
|
005642F7
|
00564301
|
Really? Alright, but before I go I should probably talk to Paige. I can catch up with you later, but I want to be the one to tell him about my folks.
|
|
96
|
005642F9
|
0056430B
|
To find the tech if it's nearby still and not shoot at anyone along the way. Maybe if you take it to the seventh hole it'll pick up the signal again?
|
|
97
|
I'll get the lab ready for when you get back! Be safe out there, you two!
|
|
98
|
005642FA
|
00564303
|
Wait, so my mom's last known location was... a golf course? I don't get it.
|
Completely baffled
|
99
|
I can't imagine there's anything spy-worthy there. What the heck would she be doing there?
|
baffled, thinking aloud
|
100
|
005642FB
|
005A2B7F
|
Ah, hello again! Put that robot on my workbench, will you?
|
Just noticing a friend arrive in the middle of talking to someone else
|
101
|
005672A0
|
005672C4
|
Are you serious right now? Yes, we got the tech. I'll be ready. You know, I heard that Paige was looking for you.
|
|
102
|
005672A2
|
005672B6
|
Uh, yeah. I got it. I'm letting Penny take a look now, but it looks like it'll be ready when the time comes.
|
|
103
|
005672A4
|
005672C6
|
I didn't think it was going to be that hard, going in. I didn't even remember her face, not really.
|
|
104
|
I think I want to bury her next to my dad after all this is over with.
|
|
105
|
Feels weird to leave Foundation behind though. The people here, Paige especially, have really been a second family to me.
|
|
106
|
005672A5
|
005672B9
|
Thanks, I appreciate hearing that. Just so you know, I haven't decided yet. But I want you to know that I will be here to help with the vault, no matter what.
|
|
107
|
00567E1A
|
00567E1D
|
Yes, she did bad things. Ignoring that she didn't have a choice in the matter, you should learn the difference between revenge and justice.
|
|
108
|
00567E1B
|
00567E1C
|
I don't think anyone's ever prepared for that kind of loss. I feel like I need to find her so I can move on, but I also don't feel ready for it.
|
|
109
|
0056DC95
|
0056DC97
|
Okay, basically go kick the crap out of a Liberator bot and then collect it for me, okay? I'm going to see if it saw our other Chinese tech.
|
you're like: ugh fine, be boring then
|
110
|
It makes you invisible, sorta. Basically.
|
eyeroll
|
111
|
0056DC96
|
0056DC98
|
Okay, so the tech makes you go invisible but it can't do it all the time. It uses a lot of power and has to turn off sometimes.
|
|
112
|
When the power runs out, things that know to look for it are going to be able to track it. Specifically things that are from the same manufacturer .
|
|
113
|
Those things might relay the sighting, just because most everything keeps a log of what it sees. A memory. Right?
|
|
114
|
00575B3F
|
00575B50
|
*speaking chinese*
|
"Mom, is that really you? You're alive!" ask MJ for chinese if needed. Excited but confused
|
115
|
Wait-how can you be alive mom? Why are you here? What is this place?
|
in english. you're hurt, she left and never came home
|
120
|
00575B42
|
00575B58
|
Oh, I talked to Paige, and we're all good here. He gets that we don't pick our parents. Stuff was always hard with them. It's been better with the Foundation crew.
|
|
121
|
Whoa, hey! Lots of new signal contacts... are you coming up on Beijing or something?
|
|
122
|
I'm getting suited up now, I'll head out as soon as I can. Just try to be careful out there, okay?
|
|
123
|
00575B43
|
00575B53
|
It looks like the Liberator is homing in on the last known location of the tech now.
|
|
124
|
Which I guess I don't need to tell you, since you're probably watching the little thing scoot around right now.
|
|
125
|
Unless you left it all alone in the world to loot something? I'd understand if you did. Robots are slow.
|
|
126
|
00575B4C
|
00575B57
|
Be safe out there!
|
|
127
|
00578259
|
0057825A
|
Hey, there you are! I'm here, I caught up-
|
Maybe slightly winded and worried, but overall just glad to catch up to the player.
|
129
|
00583E3C
|
00583E8F
|
Sounds good. And hey, thanks again.
|
|
130
|
00583E3D
|
0058486E
|
You don't happen to have a piece of Derrick's blackberry pie, do you? I bet-nah, I'm good. Sorry, bad joke. I'm all good to go.
|
joking
|
131
|
00583E3E
|
00584868
|
She's going to meet up with me after we hit Vault 79. I need to tell Paige about the risk before she comes here. I want to be better about being honest.
|
|
132
|
It's hard to tell the truth when you're afraid of getting hurt, but you and Paige have really helped me out when you didn't have to. It's taught me to trust. A bit.
|
|
133
|
00583E3F
|
00583E75
|
I'll finish up here and then meet you back at Foundation, okay? I need a moment.
|
Very neutral, emotionally tired - your mother might've just died or moved in with you (which is worse?!)
|
134
|
00583E40
|
00583E87
|
It's got a biometric lock on it, buddy. Sorry. It was a bit of a gamble whether I'd be able to wear it. Maybe we can do something, though.
|
wry, they might not be joking about only helping you to steal your stuff
|
135
|
00583E43
|
00583E7A
|
I guess you're right. Hell of a thing to be forced to throw away, though.
|
|
136
|
00583E44
|
00583E7C
|
You're probably right. I don't want anyone to be in danger because of it, but I trust both Penny and yourself to find a way.
|
|
139
|
00583E47
|
00583E8D
|
I don't see how. I'm just so mad. Nothing makes sense right now.
|
mad and sad
|
140
|
00583E48
|
0058486F
|
Did you know that dad died because he thought he saw a signal from her? It was a transmission, too garbled to understand, just some raider trap.
|
hurt, angry. bad memory
|
141
|
He died trying to find her and she's been here the whole time! I wasn't mad at her before when I thought she was dead. But I can't reconcile this.
|
|
142
|
00583E49
|
00583E8C
|
I... think I can do that. Mom, what do you say? What if I can help you hide out? We can make it work, can't we?
|
trying to reconcile, but afraid of rejection
|
143
|
00583E52
|
00583E76
|
What do you mean?
|
|
144
|
00583E53
|
00583E88
|
Yeah. We are.
|
|
145
|
00583E54
|
00584869
|
I can help you, if you let me.
|
|
146
|
00583E55
|
00583E7B
|
Yeah. I should.
|
|
151
|
00583E59
|
00583E91
|
Oh. Uh... Yeah. I hope so.
|
another way to resolve the situation with your mom
|
154
|
00583E5B
|
00583E92
|
Why'd you do it? Why'd you leave? Did you know that dad died the very next winter? Did you know that I'd be all alone out there?
|
hurt, accusing
|
155
|
00583E5C
|
00583E82
|
Wait!
|
|
157
|
00583E5E
|
0058486B
|
No... you're right. It's a terrible choice and not one anyone should ever have to make... let's just get this over with, then.
|
|
158
|
00583E5F
|
00583E84
|
That's right! I get that it's hard not to assume things are hopeless but you've been trained to hide. You should at least try.
|
player makes a good point about trying to saving your mom
|
159
|
00583E61
|
00583E7F
|
I guess-I don't know! I'm so upset!
|
Hoping there's a way out of this hard choice, but she can't see it
|
160
|
00583E62
|
00583E90
|
Yeah. You're right. Let's end this.
|
|
161
|
00583E63
|
00583E81
|
Yeah, no... you're right. It's never going to sit well with me unless I handle this myself.
|
|
162
|
You never loved me. You left me to die. You're a monster.
|
in mandarin, angry and betrayed, cold
|
163
|
00583E67
|
00583E7E
|
Wait!
|
Player decides to shoot your mom in front of you before you could reconcile your shitty relationship with her
|
164
|
00583E68
|
00583E8B
|
Thanks. This will just take a minute. I can't believe that anything she's going to say will make up for abandoning her family.
|
Angry, cold, calm
|
165
|
00583E69
|
0058486A
|
I agree that she's not going to just give up the tech and walk away. I need to say some things to her, though.
|
wary, maybe uncomfortable
|
166
|
00583E6B
|

How can someone do that to their own child, though? How do you just leave them to make their own way in this world?

It's asking a lot for me to forgive her.

No, you're right. She abandoned me, let me think she was dead, and for what? Misguided patriotism.
|
|

|
Let's just get the suit and go. She's been dead to me for a long time.

We came here looking for your corpse. I needed a suit but... I buried dad with his, years ago. I couldn't get it off. He was killed in it.
|
horrible memory
|
171
|
I didn't know you were alive down here. How could I? You left.
|
You left is angry, bitter. Child talking to their deadbeat parent.
|

|
Just don't move, okay? I'm trying to think of a way where you walk out of this. Where we don't just kill you along with everyone else down here.

This is what you wanted. This is your fault!

If she really just wants to be alone, then that's her choice. We'll take the suit and go.

So how does this work, how can we save you? Let's figure this out.

Wait! Don't kill her. Mom, just give us what we need. You can hide from them. You don't need to die today! Just let me help you.

Mama, please. Don't let it end like this.

I agree... just not sure if she's going to make it that easy for us.

You're probably right. Dying now is easy, just like leaving us was easy. Living would be the hard way.

Thanks. This will just take a minute. I can't believe that anything she's going to say will make up for abandoning her family.

Ohh, of course! We were planning to pick apart one of those air purifiers to see if we could get them going again. I'll have to ask her about that too.
