GREETING

Neutral 50
|
You double-crossing snake! I have nothing to say to someone so lowly and ill-mannered.
|
1
|
| GREETING
|
Neutral 50
|
{Pissed} I wanted Mr. Gunderson out of the way, not slaughtered in my hotel! Our business is concluded. Good day!
|

|
| GREETING
|
Neutral 50
|
{Angry} You've done enough!
|

|
| GREETING
|
Neutral 50
|
Mark my words. I'll have you filleted for this.
|

|
| GREETING
|
Neutral 50
|
Ah, you're back. You're always a welcome guest here.
|

|
| GREETING
|
Neutral 50
|
Any word as to our arrangement?
|

Neutral 50

What the- ? Who is this trespasser?
|

| GREETING

How may I be of service, sir?

I want to join the White Glove Society. I was told I'd need a sponsor.
|
Neutral 50
|
Mmm. You'll have to look elsewhere, I'm afraid. The whole idea of "joining" the White Glove Society is pure hogwash. {disdainful}
|
10
|
| Neutral 50
|
You're either in it, or you're not. There's no joining.
|
11
|
| Neutral 50
|
This "honorary member" nonsense is just something Marjorie contrived because she's so preoccupied with image. But it's only a fad.
|
12
|
| Neutral 50
|
Once it blows over the riff-raff we've temporarily inducted will be shown the door. So I wouldn't hold out hope if I were you.
|
13
|
| VMS18VMS18MarjorieTopic011
|
Caesar wishes to extend your society an offer of alliance with his Legion.
|
Neutral 50
|
Looking to elevate his social status, is he?
|
14
|
| Neutral 50
|
I'll admit, I could see benefits to living under his rule. Certain... transgressions he'd be willing to overlook.
|
15
|
| Neutral 50
|
But that's neither here nor there, I'm afraid. Marjorie won't have it, as long as she fails to see the wisdom of my perspective.
|
16
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic000
|
Marjorie said you gave a free room to a private investigator.
|
Neutral 50
|
Private investigator... Ah, yes. I remember the gentleman. {thinking}
|
17
|
| Neutral 50
|
This was about the missing bride. Such an awful thing. I do hope he finds her whereabouts.
|
18
|
| Neutral 50
|
If I might pry, have you found something that will help his investigation?
|
19
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic001
|
Actually, I just need to speak with him.
|
Neutral 50
|
Of course, of course.
|
20
|
| Actually, I just need to speak with him.
|
Neutral 50
|
Ordinarily, we don't give out guest information, but I think given the circumstances, he'll want to speak with you.
|
21
|
| Neutral 50
|
Let's see... he hasn't checked out yet. If you head back to the hotel rooms, his will be one floor directly above you after you exit the lobby.
|
22
|
| Neutral 50
|
I hope we can put this whole matter to rest at last.
|
23
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic002
|
<Lie> Yes, I have some critical information for him.
|
Neutral 50
|
Good. I hope that young man gets some closure after all he's been through.
|
24
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic003
|
I'm on an investigation, too. I'm hoping we can help each other.
|
Neutral 50
|
You are? Nothing so grim as his investigation, I hope.
|
25
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic004
|
<Loudly> Bad news, Mortimer. No one's eating the boy you kidnapped tonight.
|
Neutral 50
|
Kidnapped? That's ridiculous! And who said anything about eating anyone?
|
26
|
| Happy 50
|
{Stage Whisper} I know I didn't, because I hadn't gotten to that line of my speech yet. What remarkable timing you have.
|
27
|
| <Loudly> Bad news, Mortimer. No one's eating the boy you kidnapped tonight.
|
Neutral 50
|
What are you- ? Why is he there? Who are we eating right now?
|
28
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic005
|
I'm looking for the Gourmand. Am I in the right place?
|
Neutral 50
|
Get them!
|
29
|
| I'm looking for the Gourmand. Am I in the right place?
|
Neutral 50
|
Get him!
|
30
|
| I'm looking for the Gourmand. Am I in the right place?
|
Neutral 50
|
Get her!
|
31
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic006
|
Sorry, Mortimer. Secret recipe. It isn't human, though, I can tell you that.
|
Surprise 50
|
No! These are lies! I never kidnapped anyone. And even if I did, there's no harm done. He's alive, after all.
|
32
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic007
|
[Attack] You all heard his confession! The punishment for cannibalism is death!
|
Anger 50
|
So be it. But we are all cannibals here. My death will be a constant reminder, and some day you will all remember.
|
33
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic008
|
Too late, Mortimer. You already said too much.
|
Anger 50
|
You're all hypocrites! How can you claim to be connoisseurs yet deny yourselves the greatest of all meats?
|
34
|
| Neutral 50
|
I am ashamed to have once called everyone here family. This isn't over, though.
|
35
|
| Neutral 50
|
I'll begin anew. The White Glove Society will never achieve the greatness of my new order.
|
36
|
| Neutral 50
|
You'll all hear from me again.
|
37
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic009
|
What can you tell me about your organization?
|
Neutral 50
|
My, such a popular question. I suppose it is only natural to see us and wonder what it is that makes us special.
|
38
|
| Neutral 50
|
The White Glove Society has only just made itself known to the public, of course, but our pedigree was established over generations.
|
39
|
| Neutral 50
|
Were we always so refined? I'd be lying if I said yes. But I've always felt we were destined for a place atop modern society. And now, here we are.
|
40
|
| Neutral 50
|
Not everyone can wear the finest clothes and eat the finest foods, obviously. That's just the reality we live in.
|
41
|
| Neutral 50
|
But surely we can agree that the most tasteful, sophisticated people are the most deserving. That's what the White Glove Society is all about.
|
42
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic010
|
Where did you say the investigator's room was, again?
|
Neutral 50
|
If you head back to the hotel rooms, his will be one floor directly above you after you exit the lobby.
|
43
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic011
|
I've heard your group dines on human flesh.
|
Neutral 50
|
Ah, yes, I've heard that one too. Jealous people say such nasty things. I feel sorry for them.
|
44
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic012
|
I, too, know what it is to feel the Craving. How can I support your cause?
|
Neutral 50
|
Good. Then you know what it is to be discreet in matters of... nutrition. Perhaps you can help me.
|
45
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic013
|
<Lie> I, too, know what it is to feel the Craving. How can I support your cause?
|
Neutral 50
|
[SUCCEEDED] Good. Then you know what it is to be discreet in matters of... nutrition. Perhaps you can help me.
|
46
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic014
|
<Lie> I sort of tasted human flesh once. Mmm mmm good. Tell me all your secrets.
|
Neutral 50
|
[FAILED] Please, you're embarrassing yourself. I must request that you change the subject.
|
47
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic015
|
So it isn't true?
|
Neutral 50
|
I can assure you that the only thing the White Glove Society is guilty of is preparing the tastiest cuisine you'll ever sample.
|
48
|
| Neutral 50
|
That is, of course, if you can afford it.
|
49
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic016
|
Let's talk about something else.
|
Neutral 50
|
Indeed. Let's.
|
50
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic017
|
Do you have any work that needs to be done?
|
Neutral 50
|
No, not from the likes of you, I'm afraid. I don't think you'd have the stomach for it. Better look elsewhere.
|
51
|
| Do you have any work that needs to be done?
|
Neutral 50
|
I do, but I need someone I know I can rely on. And I haven't heard a thing about you.
|
52
|
| Neutral 50
|
Perhaps if you made more of a name for yourself around the Strip, we could talk. But not before.
|
53
|
| Do you have any work that needs to be done?
|
Neutral 50
|
Yes, I'm glad you asked. I've heard about you, you know. You strike me as just the sort of person who can help me.
|
54
|
| Do you have any work that needs to be done?
|
Neutral 50
|
I'm in a bind. I've been planning an exquisite Society dinner, but there's a bit of a problem with the main course.
|
55
|
| Neutral 50
|
He's got a powerful and temperamental father.
|
56
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic018
|
The main course is a person?
|
Neutral 50
|
Yes. The wrong person. We scouted the right one for weeks. The heir to a mercantile empire. Sort of a black sheep. {emph. "wrong"}
|
57
|
| Neutral 50
|
He cut ties with his family and left their estate to wander. He was ideal. Corn-fed and well-to-do, but no one to miss him if he were to disappear.
|
58
|
| Neutral 50
|
Unfortunately the trap my subordinates set for him failed. And as he escaped, he saw their faces. Now he's wary.
|
59
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic019
|
[Attack] He's the least of your problems right now, cannibal.
|
Neutral 50
|
You barbarous cur. {pouty}
|
60
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic020
|
I think you have the wrong person for this job.
|
Neutral 50
|
Perhaps I do. Forget I mentioned it.
|
61
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic021
|
What did you do?
|
Neutral 50
|
I asked for a last-minute replacement. And they stole the son of the most dangerous Brahmin baron in New Vegas while he stayed at this very hotel. {increasingly angry at his lackeys' stupidity}
|
62
|
| Neutral 50
|
Needless to say, this could be a disaster if things aren't put back the way they should be. And I still need somebody reputable to serve for dinner.
|
63
|
| Neutral 50
|
Strictly speaking, we're no longer allowed to eat people. But I'm hoping the right person and preparation might sway Marjorie to see things my way.
|
64
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic023
|
Tell me what I need to do.
|
Neutral 50
|
I need a replacement, and I need the boy taken care of. The replacement must be healthy and well-bred. One can't very well make steak from gristle.
|
65
|
| Neutral 50
|
With so little time, we'll have go after our original choice, Carlyle St. Clair. He lives in a shack north of here. For freshness, we need him alive.
|
66
|
| Neutral 50
|
If you could send him here or knock him out with this and drag him into the dumpster next to his house, we can do the rest.
|
67
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic024
|
What about the boy you kidnapped?
|
Neutral 50
|
Ted Gunderson is his name. It would be simplest if you could convince him this was all an unfortunate misunderstanding.
|
68
|
| Neutral 50
|
But if he won't listen, we can't very well let him go. He'll have to be slaughtered and served. Then we wouldn't need the replacement.
|
69
|
| Neutral 50
|
But you would need to deal with his father, Heck. Perhaps if you could smear some of Ted's blood around his father's hotel room, you could frame him.
|
70
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic025
|
I'll do it.
|
Neutral 50
|
Splendid, splendid. The boy is being held in the kitchen beneath the Gourmand. Here are some keys that will allow you access to him.
|
71
|
| Neutral 50
|
The elder Gunderson is staying in our penthouse. I understand he's hired security, so be careful if you go up there.
|
72
|
| Neutral 50
|
And our Mr. St. Clair resides to the north. He rarely strays far from his house, and he's surrounded it with booby traps.
|
73
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic026
|
I'll think about it.
|
Neutral 50
|
Very well, but I'll need to know soon or I'll be forced to make other plans.
|
74
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic028
|
<Hushed> Would my companion here make a suitable replacement meal?
|
Neutral 50
|
Which one?
|
75
|
| <Hushed> Would my companion here make a suitable replacement meal?
|
Neutral 50
|
Hmm. He's a little thin, but he looks like he comes from good stock with that strong jaw and upright posture.
|
76
|
| <Hushed> Would my companion here make a suitable replacement meal?
|
Neutral 50
|
Perhaps a little rugged, a little gamey. But he is in good shape and looks healthy.
|
77
|
| <Hushed> Would my companion here make a suitable replacement meal?
|
Neutral 50
|
From the smell of her I'd say we can skip the whiskey marinade. But other than her liver she seems to be in working order.
|
78
|
| <Hushed> Would my companion here make a suitable replacement meal?
|
Neutral 50
|
Her skin has a certain supple quality to it, doesn't it? She's kept it well. How mouth-watering.
|
79
|
| <Hushed> Would my companion here make a suitable replacement meal?
|
Neutral 50
|
I'm sorry, but it absolutely must be a human. Former doesn't count.
|
80
|
| <Hushed> Would my companion here make a suitable replacement meal?
|
Neutral 50
|
I assume you're joking.
|
81
|
| <Hushed> Would my companion here make a suitable replacement meal?
|
Neutral 50
|
Very well. If you're able to convince young Mr. Gunderson to return to his father, replace him in the freezer with your friend and we'll have a deal.
|
82
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic034
|
I framed Heck Gunderson and sent a Securitron to arrest him.
|
Neutral 50
|
So the baron has slaughtered his last Brahmin. How delightful. He was a pox on our business.
|
83
|
| Neutral 50
|
He would've driven the price of beef down to the point where any poor wretch could afford it. Can you imagine? {with distaste}
|
84
|
| Neutral 50
|
But now we can price it even higher, create a new luxury market. Not for you, of course. You'll get a special discount.
|
85
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic035
|
Did you succeed in turning the White Glove Society back to cannibalism?
|
Neutral 50
|
We'll know after tonight's banquet at 7 o'clock. I'll only be telling everyone what they've eaten after they've eaten it.
|
86
|
| Neutral 50
|
That way, they will all have crossed the same silly taboo. They'll have to reconsider it. Even Marjorie.
|
87
|
| Neutral 50
|
It's all image with her, anyway. She just needs to realize the only difference between savage and sophisticated is the proper seasoning.
|
88
|
| Did you succeed in turning the White Glove Society back to cannibalism?
|
Neutral 50
|
We'll know after tomorrow night's banquet at 7 o'clock. I'll only be telling everyone what they've eaten after they've eaten it.
|
89
|
| Neutral 50
|
That way, they will all have crossed the same silly taboo. They'll have to reconsider it. Even Marjorie.
|
90
|
| Neutral 50
|
It's all image with her, anyway. She just needs to realize the only difference between savage and sophisticated is the proper seasoning.
|
91
|
| Did you succeed in turning the White Glove Society back to cannibalism?
|
Neutral 50
|
I certainly did. Philippe created an extraordinary amuse bouche from the flesh of the Gunderson boy.
|
92
|
| Did you succeed in turning the White Glove Society back to cannibalism?
|
Neutral 50
|
I certainly did. Philippe created an extraordinary amuse bouche from the flesh of the late Mr. St. Clair.
|
93
|
| Did you succeed in turning the White Glove Society back to cannibalism?
|
Neutral 50
|
I certainly did. Philippe created an extraordinary amuse bouche from the flesh of your former travel partner.
|
94
|
| Did you succeed in turning the White Glove Society back to cannibalism?
|
Neutral 50
|
Everyone at the banquet loved it! I told them what it was and the room was quiet for a moment, but then we all had a hearty laugh.
|
95
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic036
|
Not yet.
|
Neutral 50
|
I see. Keep me in the know.
|
96
|
| Not yet.
|
Neutral 50
|
You have done very well in keeping this business low-key. I appreciate your discretion. I'll be sure to drop your name during our functions.
|
97
|
| Neutral 50
|
I hope you understand what a tremendous boon this will be to your standing in society.
|
98
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic037
|
I convinced Ted it was all a terrible misunderstanding.
|
Neutral 50
|
Good. Having his father's attention cast upon me was the last thing I needed.
|
99
|
| Neutral 50
|
Now if you can lure Mr. St. Clair out of his home and into captivity, and he's still disease-free, I shall breathe a sigh of relief.
|
100
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic038
|
Ted Gunderson is dead. He wouldn't listen to reason.
|
Neutral 50
|
I see. Well this could get out of hand very quickly unless something is done to keep the elder Gunderson in check. {starting to sweat a bit, trying to keep composure}
|
101
|
| Neutral 50
|
You mustn't kill him, though. The publicity would be a disaster. I need you to handle this quietly, like we discussed.
|
102
|
| Neutral 50
|
A little blood in his suite should do the trick. And if you have a Securitron arrest him, our involvement will appear nonexistent.
|
103
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic039
|
Couldn't Heck just claim intruders killed his son?
|
Neutral 50
|
No. Everyone he meets, he tells the same story. That his son disappeared from the casino, not from his room. He'll look guilty.
|
104
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic040
|
I planted evidence in Heck Gunderson's room.
|
Neutral 50
|
You made it past his guards, then? Excellent. Send a Securitron up to his room. It's programmed to investigate anything suspicious.
|
105
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic041
|
<Lie> I'll do it. Where can I find Ted Gunderson?
|
Neutral 50
|
Splendid, splendid. The boy is being held in the kitchen beneath the Gourmand. Here are some keys that will allow you access to him.
|
106
|
| Neutral 50
|
The elder Gunderson is staying in our penthouse. I understand he's hired security, so be careful if you go up there.
|
107
|
| Neutral 50
|
And our Mr. St. Clair resides to the north. He rarely strays far from his house, and he's surrounded it with booby traps.
|
108
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic043
|
Wouldn't putting St. Clair's body into a dumpster give it a terrible taste?
|
Neutral 50
|
Not this one. Empty. I don't believe it's seen use since before the war.
|
109
|
| Neutral 50
|
And what would the point be, really? Who would pick up his trash if he used it?
|
110
|
| Neutral 50
|
But for our purposes, it should keep his body safe and hidden until my cohorts can recover it.
|
111
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic044
|
I trapped Carlyle St. Clair in the dumpster outside his house.
|
Neutral 50
|
Just as I asked. What a magnificent relief! By now, barring any more bungling, my underlings should have him on his way here.
|
112
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic045
|
I sent Carlyle St. Clair to come and speak with you.
|
Neutral 50
|
Of his own volition? My goodness, you are very professional, aren't you? Well, he's sure to be a hit at our next banquet.
|
113
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic046
|
Carlyle St. Clair is dead.
|
Neutral 50
|
Drat! He was our best chance at a fresh and healthy entree.
|
114
|
| Neutral 50
|
Without a replacement, I'll have to push back the whole affair. I can just see my rivals sneering at me.
|
115
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic047
|
I left one of my companions in the freezer for your enjoyment.
|
Neutral 50
|
Wonderful. You have come through with flying colors. On behalf of my colleagues, allow me to extend my thanks.
|
116
|
| Neutral 50
|
I know what a terrible sacrifice this must've been for you.
|
117
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic049
|
Will the White Glove Society ally with Caesar now?
|
Neutral 50
|
I should think so, but it would be up to Marjorie.
|
118
|
| Neutral 50
|
I have, however, told her how instrumental you were in revolutionizing our cuisine. And she knows what we stand to gain from a ruler who supports it.
|
119
|
| Neutral 50
|
Have a word with her, see what she says. I daresay she'll be more receptive with these new developments.
|
120
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic050
|
What's next, now that the White Glove Society has tasted human flesh again?
|
Neutral 50
|
Now that it's been accepted, it will become a regular course for us.
|
121
|
| Neutral 50
|
It's a new and exciting frontier for our chef. I've never seen him so cheerful.
|
122
|
| VMS18VMS18MortimerTopic051
|
Will you serve human flesh at the Gourmand?
|
Neutral 50
|
Oh, I very much doubt that. What fun would it be if everyone could have it?
|
123
|
| Neutral 50
|
Then again, I wouldn't be surprised if our chef used it here and there as a secret ingredient to make his dishes really come alive.
|
124
