NCR Correctional Facility

Eddie#

Here, the player speaks with Eddie about Meyers becoming the sheriff of Primm.

With a speech skill of 45, Eddie would let Meyers sheriff the town.

Speaker

Dialogue

Form ID

Player

Meyers wants to sheriff Primm, and wants you to leave the town alone.

Eddie

Are you on drugs or something? Get out of my office.

000e3e8e

Player

Primm is desperate for rule of law. If it's Meyers, it won't be the NCR.

Eddie

Say, I get what you're saying...

000e3e8f

Eddie

It's a deal. Tell Meyers he can have the town, and we won't raid that far south. In turn, he keeps us informed of any NCR troops headed our way.

000e3e8f

Meyers#

Additional dialogue exists for Meyers that accommodates for an unused portion of the "My Kind of Town" quest where the player would need to convince Eddie to exclude the town from his raiding.

Speaker

Dialogue

Form ID

Player

Actually, I have some stuff to take care of first.

Meyers

Alright. You know where to find me.

0009A21D

Player

Actually, I have some stuff to take care of first.

Meyers

Oh yeah? Then don't waste my time building up my hopes for a future better than what I can get around here.

0009A220

Player

Keying on Meyers' experience, the player asks him to sheriff Primm

Meyers

So I've heard. I doubt they'd welcome an ex con as their law man, though. I'd consider it if you'd give me a hand with something.

0009A221

Player

Keying on Meyers' experience, the player asks him to sheriff Primm

Meyers

So I've heard, and I'm still a former sheriff. You still interested in having me bring some law down there?

000E3E89

Player

The PC tells Meyers to become sheriff.

Meyers

Being a lawman sounds a hell of a lot better to me than sitting around here, waiting for the NCR to round us up.

0009A21F

Meyers

Alright, I'll round up some folks I trust and make for the town. Thanks for the tip.

0009A21F

Player

The PC tells Meyers to become sheriff

Meyers

Word is that Eddie's been handled, and being a lawman does sound a lot better than sitting around here, waiting for the NCR to round us up.

00E3E8B

Meyers

Alright, I'll round up some folks I trust and make for the town. Thanks for the tip.

00E3E8B

Player

The PC tells Meyers to become sheriff

Meyers

Well, I think that Eddie is going to be a problem. If I take over as Sheriff in your little town, I don't want his people causing me any trouble.

000E3E8C

Meyers

Get rid of Eddie, or convince him to have his people leave me alone down there and I'll take your sheriff job.

000E3E8C

Player

The PC tells Meyers to become sheriff

Meyers

You need to deal with Eddie, one way or another, before I'll help you in Primm.

Encampment#

Hayes#

Some unused dialogue for Lt. Hayes, here he makes references to cut functionality from the quest "My Kind Of Town". He also provides additional background information on the NCR in general. Also worth noting is that Hayes is more gruff and impatient in this build, compared to his comparatively calm demeanour in the final.

General dialogue for Hayes, the line "At last count, we had over 700,000 productive, literate citizens." is unusual as this was the count given in Fallout 2, set 40 years prior.

Speaker

Dialogue

Form ID

Player

So where were they headed?

Hayes

The NCR is the greatest nation on Earth, that's what it is. At last count, we had over 700,000 productive, literate citizens.

00099CE3

Hayes

But for every trooper who gets to fight the Legion in the East, there's one who's got to watch over a goddamn backwater like this.

00099CE3

Hayes

Sometimes I just can't help but get tired of dealing with barbarians.

00099CE3

Hayes

You probably don't know how to count that high, but 700,000 is a lot. We've got the strongest army on Earth.

00099CE3

Here he describes the cut portion of the quest that would've seen the player obtain the residents signatures as consent for the NCR to police the town:

Speaker

Dialogue

Form ID

Player

Barter Option - Running Primm could earn some money for the NCR.

Hayes

Right now Primm can't rub two caps together. But I guess you're right. Once we lock it down, the economy can make a rebound.

00099CFD

Hayes

I'd need a formal letter of enfranchisement, signed by half or more of Primm's residents. I'll give you a copy.

00099CFD

Hayes

If you can get the signatures, I'll guarantee the safety of Primm's citizens. If they won't sign, tell them to keep enjoying their freedom.

00099CFD

Player

Barter Option - Running Primm could earn some money for the NCR.

Hayes

What are you talking about? Primm is a ghost town, it sure as hell isn't worth taking a bullet for.

000E5292

Player

Int Option - Primm is a good strategic point.

Hayes

It's a natural stopping point along the I-15 for travelers and caravans. It all depends on if they're ready to handle themselves.

00099CED

Hayes

I'd need a formal letter of enfranchisement, signed by half or more of Primm's residents. I'll give you a copy.

00099CED

Hayes

If you can get the signatures, I'll guarantee the safety of Primm's citizens. If they won't sign, tell them to keep enjoying their freedom.

00099CED

Player

Int Option - Primm is a good strategic point.

Hayes

Gosh, why didn't I think of that sooner? Think of all the lives we could have saved...

000E5290

Hayes

The town's position along I-15 has some value, sure. But this camp is right along I-15 too, moron.

000E5290

Player

Here's the formal letter, with all necessary signatures.

Hayes

Primm's lucky you talked some sense into them. I'll order Sergeant McGee to bring his squad into town, and establish order.

000E4485

This dialogue refers to cut functionality for the quest, where the player would've been able to replace the Sheriff they'd chosen.

Hayes

Primm had their chance to join the NCR, and they spat at it like their so called independence, so long as we provided policing free of charge.

000e58d4

Hayes

Whatever trouble they've got now, I guess they're the ones who put themselves in it. I guess that's the price of freedom.

000e58d4

Player

-

Hayes

So I heard. If I gave a shit, we would've done something already. It's not our problem.

00099ce5

Player

-

Hayes

The NCR Army has no interest in Primm.

000e58d5

Player

-

Hayes

Seems all that amateur law enforcement doesn't amount to much...but that's what they wanted. Fuck 'em.

000e58d2

Player

Hayes

I guess that makes you a regular hero... who gives a fuck?

000e58d3

Sergeant McGee#

Unused dialogue is present for this NPC. Of note, the final two lines are not actual speech, but rather a description of what the character says.

Speaker

Dialogue

Form ID

Player

Raiders have taken Primm's deputy hostage.

McGee

That's what the Nashes said. Lt. Hayes knows all about it, but you can try talking to him.

000CDB0f

Player

I rescued Primm's deputy, but the town's still lawless.

McGee

Yeah, the Nashes said. That deputy ain't worth much. There's nothing we can do unless Lt. Hayes says different.

000E58D6

Player

Primm's new sheriff is dead. The town needs your help.

McGee

That new lawman didn't last long, huh? Well, it's up to Lt. Hayes to decide if we can help out.

000E58D7

Player

What's the news?

McGee

McGee is currently Sheriff, and implies he is ruling over the town with an iron clad fist.

00099CFA

Player

What's the news?

McGee

Meyers is currently Sheriff. McGee frowns on an ex Powder Ganger looking after the town.

00099CFB

Player

What's the news?

McGee

Myers was sheriff but died somehow.

Multiple lines for generic NCR NPCs. These are all greeting lines and don't have corresponding player prompts.

NCR Trooper

Take it up with the Lt, waster.

000CDB14

NCR Trooper

Wasting your time talking to me, waster. Talk to the Lt.

000CDB15

NCR Trooper

I got nothing to say to wasters. Go see Lt. Hayes.

000CDB16

NCR Trooper

Primm is secured against outside threats, be interesting to see how long the natives stay grateful.

000CDB21

NCR Trooper

Move along, waster. Got a town to run here.

Primm Slim#

Primm Slim has a line of dialogue in response to being asked to sign the petition:

Player

Will you sign this formal letter asking the NCR to take control of Primm?

Primm Slim

Golly, partner, thanks for asking. But I'm afraid as a personage of robotic origins, I'm not allowed to participate in democratic processes.
