- ↑ Courier: "I can show you how to disarm the NCR's mines."
Severus: "That would be worth knowing, especially if we can then rearm and reuse them."
Courier: "The trick is to rush the mine and press the blinking red light."
Severus: "The light is a button that can interrupt detonation? We were too busy throwing ourselves to the ground to figure that out. To rearm the mine, we'd just press the button again - simple. The Profligates will regret that we learned this."
(Severus' dialogue)
