GREETING	GREETING	Neutral 50	Oh- oh my. How unfortunate! And in front of all these people, too. {fretting - a little flustered}	1
		Neutral 50	He always was a bit of a pill, Mortimer. He was so pouty when I decided to ban eating people. And now this.	2
		Neutral 50	I should've paid more attention to the warning signs.	3
		Neutral 50	Can you imagine what people would've said? Why, it would've been a complete scandal if it weren't for you.	4
	GREETING	Neutral 50	To think, Mr. Gunderson, a cold-blooded murderer. It's simply chilling.	5
		Neutral 50	But his arrest ought to instill faith in our patrons that murderers are not welcome to gamble here.	6
	GREETING	Neutral 50	What a disaster! An important person dead in my hotel.	7
		Neutral 50	{Appalled} Now people will confuse us with Gomorrah. The idea!	8
	GREETING	Neutral 50	So glad you could be here tonight. I had hoped you would join us.	9
	GREETING	Neutral 50	Welcome to the Ultra-Luxe. I do hope it exceeds your every expectation.	10
VMS18VMS18MarjorieTopic000	I'm looking for someone who went missing here recently.	Neutral 50	This again? I thought all this was settled. I answered every one of that investigator's questions to his satisfaction and gave all the help I could.	11
		Neutral 50	I know our reputation hasn't always been spotless, but that's all in the past now. How some people can't get over it is beyond me.	12
		Neutral 50	For the last time, the White Glove Society has never and will never consume human flesh for any reason. It's written in the charter.	13
VMS18VMS18MarjorieTopic001	The White Glove Society used to eat human flesh?	Neutral 50	Now didn't I already tell you that we don't do that sort of thing? We do not engage in cannibalism here under any circumstances.	14
		Neutral 50	Though we haven't always been the White Glove Society. There was another time, a dark time, when we went by a different name. {lightly admitting some guilt}	15
		Neutral 50	But that's all changed now! We've... evolved past such base impulses since settling into our new home. I've seen to it that those days are behind us. {proud}	16
VMS18VMS18MarjorieTopic002	Who did you talk to about the disappearance?	Neutral 50	There was an investigator who came through here last week. He'd been hired by a young man whose bride-to-be went missing during their stay here.	17
		Neutral 50	Well you can already guess what probably happened, can't you? It seems perfectly likely that she got cold feet and ran off.	18
		Neutral 50	And that young groom just didn't have a clue, the poor dear.	19
VMS18VMS18MarjorieTopic003	It's okay. I eat people too. You can tell me the truth.	Anger 50	You disgust me. How dare you say such a filthy thing in my establishment? I ought to have you arrested.	20
		Anger 25	You'll kindly mind your tongue, or we shan't speak any further.	21
VMS18VMS18MarjorieTopic004	<Lie> It's okay. I eat people too. You can tell me the truth.	Anger 50	You disgust me. How dare you say such a filthy thing in my establishment? I ought to have you arrested.	22
		Anger 25	You'll kindly mind your tongue, or we shan't speak any further.	23
VMS18VMS18MarjorieTopic005	Is there any way I could talk to the investigator?	Neutral 50	Why yes, I think so. If he hasn't checked out yet, that is.	24
		Neutral 50	I had our maitre d', Mortimer, offer him a complimentary room for as long as it took for him to be satisfied.	25
		Neutral 50	You see? The White Glove Society remains the very picture of courtesy, even in the face of such impolite accusations. We have nothing to hide here.	26
VMS18VMS18MarjorieTopic006	I'm investigating someone else. A man. And he just recently went missing.	Neutral 50	A man? Well then this... well this can't be. Two disappearances in my hotel? What will people say?	27
		Neutral 50	I'm going to have a word with my staff about security on the premises.	28
		Neutral 50	Whether these people are found or not, our guests simply must feel safe in their own rooms.	29
VMS18VMS18MarjorieTopic007	Do you work here?	Neutral 50	I do, but one can hardly call it work. I think of myself as a caretaker rather than a common laborer.	30
		Neutral 50	I suppose it is a labor of love if it can be called labor at all.	31
		Neutral 50	We at the White Glove Society are all responsible for maintaining the beauty and class of the Ultra-Luxe.	32
		Neutral 50	And as its founder I suppose it falls to me to decide how we go about it.	33
VMS18VMS18MarjorieTopic008	Heck Gunderson said he was here to talk business with you. What business?	Neutral 50	What else? Mr. Gunderson and I have been discussing his livestock.	34
		Neutral 50	It's put us in rather a delicate position, you see, his coming here. Not that we aren't grateful for his generous offer.	35
		Neutral 50	But our executive chef Philippe has transformed brahmin steak into a delicacy. He really is a genius. Everyone wants it.	36
		Neutral 50	But a delicacy is just that - delicate. If everyone can get it, it ceases to be a delicacy. It becomes a perfectly ordinary staple. {turning up her nose at 'staple'}	37
		Neutral 50	And if the Gourmand served staples, it would no longer draw the caliber of people it deserves. It'd be a diner or a... a family restaurant. {nauseated by the thought of a family restaurant}	38
		Neutral 50	So as much as we'd all love for there to be enough steak for everyone, I'm afraid there are more important things to consider.	39
VMS18VMS18MarjorieTopic009	I want to join the White Glove Society. I was told I'd need a sponsor.	Neutral 50	Why yes, of course. The White Glove Society is the most exclusive club in all of New Vegas. Perhaps the entire world.	40
		Neutral 50	It's only natural that you'd need a sponsor from within the club who can vouch for your good name.	41
		Neutral 50	Originally we didn't allow anyone else in, you see. Founding members only. We thought exclusivity would make us the envy of everyone who's anyone.	42
		Neutral 50	And it has. But then I had the idea to allow honorary members. Lower in status, naturally, but it just makes people want to be us even more. {emph. "has."}	43
		Neutral 50	And the right people could certainly do wonders for our image. Celebrities, philanthropists. We want only the very best.	44
	I want to join the White Glove Society. I was told I'd need a sponsor.	Neutral 50	I'm afraid you are a relative unknown. Certainly not the caliber of person we would consider for such an honor. Not yet, anyway.	45
		Neutral 50	If you had more notoriety or clout here on the Strip, things would be different. People need to have heard of you, and you must be well thought of.	46
	I want to join the White Glove Society. I was told I'd need a sponsor.	Neutral 50	And you most definitely fit the bill. Given your deeds on the Strip alone, I can safely say that you would be a prized addition to our honorary ranks.	47
VMS18VMS18MarjorieTopic010	Would you be willing to sponsor me as an honorary member now?	Neutral 50	The answer is still no, I fear. You need to be the talk of the town, really. Think big! Your name should be on everyone's lips.	48
		Neutral 50	Come back then, and we shall welcome you with open arms.	49
	Would you be willing to sponsor me as an honorary member now?	Neutral 50	Most definitely! You have become quite an impressive person in my estimation, and you are very well regarded here among those in the know.	50
	Would you be willing to sponsor me as an honorary member now?	Neutral 50	You have my full support, and you are welcome to join us at our nightly banquets in our special section of the Gourmand.	51
		Neutral 50	I hope to see you there.	52
VMS18VMS18MarjorieTopic011	Caesar wishes to extend your society an offer of alliance with his Legion.	Neutral 50	Tell your ruler we have no interest in such ties. Caesar's Legion is a collection of unclean barbarians.	53
		Neutral 50	Any time the White Glove Society is mentioned in the same breath, it sullies our good name.	54
		Neutral 50	As much as Mortimer and some of the other members have tried to convince me otherwise, I will not have us seen as savages.	55
	Caesar wishes to extend your society an offer of alliance with his Legion.	Neutral 50	I don't care for their incivility or the hodgepodge of sporting equipment that passes for fashion with them.	56
		Neutral 50	Nevertheless, I have heard Caesar has a stately dignity about him. And I understand his policies will agree with our new menu.	57
		Neutral 50	I prefer Mr. House, of course, but he may not be around forever. And the NCR will surely set back our cuisine. Tell your Mr. Caesar we are with him.	58
VMS18VMS18MarjorieTopic012	How is your new cuisine faring?	Neutral 50	Why it's splendid. Simply to die for.	59
		Neutral 50	{affably} Mortimer told me about you, you know. What a pair of mischief makers you two are!	60
		Neutral 50	But the new entrees are fresh and bold and I have the two of you to thank for it.	61
