Unused Dialogue

This is a sub-page of Fallout: New Vegas.

This page houses New Vegas's unused dialogue. The text is copied directly from the game when possible, so any spelling errors or missing words in the "Text" file are completely intentional and should not be altered. {Notes in curly brackets are reading directions for voice actors or developer tags which are included in dialogue text but invisible to the player.}

To do:
Sarah Weintraub and Kate have greetings for if Michael Angelo is dead that never play because the quest variable tracking his death is never set to 1.

188 Junk Vendor#

Dialogue for a cut junk trader at the 188 Trading Post. It's a single line of dialogue for buying and selling goods:

Speaker	Text	File
Player	I'd like to purchase something.
Junk Trader	You got it.

Alexus#

Alexus is the named Legion Decanus in Techatticup Mine with no dialogue other than the generic "What do you need?". Despite this he appears on the 2 of clubs in the collector's edition deck along with Dead Sea. There are a handful of topics directed at him, but they lack any response. the July 21, 2010 prototype includes his dialogue, including the line on his card: "This is no place for the faint of heart, and no one comes down into this vile pit without purpose."

Speaker	Text
Player	I just wandered in here.
Player	I'm here about the hostages.
Player	Can you let them go?
Player	I'll be going now.
Player	I want one of their heads.

Arcade Gannon#

On ED-E#

Speaker	Text	File
Player	Is the Enclave's treatment by the Brotherhood influencing your opinion?
Arcade	Some of the old-timers like Moreno hold grudges against the Brotherhood and the NCR. I'd like to think I'm above that, but you may be right.
Arcade	I'm not going to pout and cry if you give him to the Brotherhood. I'd rather they have it than allow all that knowledge to disappear.
Arcade	I'd just prefer that it goes to an organization like the Followers, who are less likely to use it for... violent purposes.

On Emily Ortal#

Speaker	Text	File
Arcade	{sarcastic, in response to being ignored by another Follower}Oh, hello Emily. Yes, it is I, Arcade Gannon, fellow member of the Followers of the Apocalypse.
Arcade	Would I like to help infiltrate the Lucky 38{casino}? I'm so glad you asked...

Atticus#

Atticus is an early version of Veteran Atticus, the legionary who visits the Legion safehouse weekly. This version of the NPC is not used in-game.

Speaker	Text	File
Atticus	Here - these are the supplies I've acquired for you.
Atticus	I'll be back in a few days with more supplies. See you then.

Benny#

This would have been used in an ambush sometime after freeing him from Caesar.

Speaker	Text	File
Benny	{ambushing the player while using Stealth Boy} Thanks for getting me outta that cage! Now for once will you just {emphasis, player's resilience is vexing} lay down and stay down?
Benny	No one rules Vegas {'cept}except me, got it? You're a lowdown gofer! You deliver mail!
Benny	How ya like being Mister Good-Two-Shoes, Ey? How's it feeling?
Benny	How ya like being Miss Good-Two-Shoes, Ey? How's it feeling?

Bert Gunnarsson#

Bert Gunnarsson is the ghoul in Aerotech Office Park. Apparently, he's Mormon and was friends with the fiend Driver Nephi.

Speaker	Text	File
Player	What was it that brought you out here from Utah?
Bert	Following a lost cause, I'm afraid. My old friend Nephi fell in with a bad crowd.
Bert	Drug runners, raiders, probably worse things it's better not to dwell on. When his gang headed west, I followed.
Bert	I thought perhaps I could turn him back to the Church.
Player	What happened to your friend Nephi?
Bert	I never was able to reach him. He has allowed drugs and hatred to consume him. He runs with the Fiends north of here, now. They call him Driver Nephi.

A trace of this still appears in the game when Nephi is killed. Bert will use as a greeting this line, just once: "I've heard through the locals that Nephi has passed on. I truly hope his soul finds peace."

Betsy the Brahmin#

Betsy the Brahmin is an NPC companion who never made it to completion. See unused creatures. She has two topics directed towards her both lacking responses, but because she is a Brahmin, any replies probably would have been something along the lines of "moo".

Speaker	Text
Player	Betsy, I need to go on by myself. Are you going to be okay, girl?
Player	C'mon, girl. Let's get going.

Betters#

Betters was an NCR soldier located in or near Techatticup Mine, based on his dialogue Editor IDs. Only player lines remain.

Speaker	Text
Player	I'm going nowhere in particular.
Player	I have no time to talk right now.
Player	Yes. But why does that matter to you?
Player	Sorry. I need to go.
Player	Okay I will help you.
Player	I really can't do that.

Black Mountain Radio Transcripts#

Early Black Mountain Radio Transcript#

An early, different transcript of the Black Mountain Radio broadcast exists in the game's message files (normally used to display pop-up messages).

[Rhonda] You're listening to Radio Free Utobitha, bringing truth to Utobithians 24 hours a day! Welcome!

[Tabitha] I am in control here!

[Rhonda] That was today's and every day's extra special guest, Best Friend Tabitha, supreme commander of Utobitha and Wearer of the True Eyes!

[Tabitha] I still miss you, Rhonda. After all these years...

[Rhonda] Also joining us from his locked cell is Raul Tejada, master mechanic who can be executed at any time! Hello, Raul. Or should that be "Hola?"

[Raul] Uh, either one works.

[Tabitha] Today you die, Raul! I command it!

[Rhonda] Ooooh, Raul. Supreme commander Tabitha says you die today. Any reaction.

[Raul] I going to obey supreme Tabitha, claro, whatever she say. Just I feel so bad I die before I fix her special robot.

[Silence.]

[Tabitha] <Growls in frustration.>

[Rhonda] We'll be right back after this musical interlude! Enjoy!

[Rhonda] You're listening to UNC - the Utobithian News Channel - with breaking news!

[Rhonda] The execution of master mechanic Raul Tajeda has again been commuted for a period of 24 hours to allow time for important repairs.

[Tabitha] This time you will get it done, Raul!

[Rhonda] Joining us from his cell to comment on the situation is Raul Tejada. Raul?

[Raul] Hi, Tab - Rhonda.

[Rhonda] What's your take on the situation?

[Raul] All I want is to make that special robot work again, you know? I give it my best.

[Rhonda] We'll be right back after this word from our sponsor during which Raul will contemplate how lucky he is to be alive.

[Tabitha] Are you tired of getting chased because you're bigger than humans, and scaring them?

[Tabitha] Did you kill some and they overreacted? Are two-head-bear people shooting at you, and battle cattle mooing? Beware the battle cattle...

[Rhonda] "Leave the fear behind."

[Tabitha] Leave the Fear Behind. Meet at the Mountain Top! Enjoy life in a state of Utobitha - Free, Safe, Secure!

[Rhonda] Freedom limited to following the commands of Best Friend Tabitha...

[Rhonda] <Cont.> Safety not guaranteed against siege or assault by two-head-bear people or battle cattles.

[Rhonda] <Cont.> Many infractions are punishable by death, no allowances for dumb-dumb "misunderstandings".

[Tabitha] Utobitha! Come feel the difference!

[Rhonda] Welcome back, Utobitha. It's time!

[Tabitha] Time for what, Rhonda?

[Rhonda] True Eye Seeing Time!

[Applause track.]

[Rhonda] I see that you're already wearing the True Eyes, Best Friend Tabitha, along with your head of True Hair. What do you see?

[Tabitha] Uh... I see Neil...

[Rhonda] First-generation Neil from down the mountain? And what is he up to?

[Tabitha] Standing outside his shack down there.

[Rhonda] In the same spot as before, or has he moved?

[Tabitha] A little.

[Rhonda] Wow! It must be so exciting to see and know all. What a powerful reminder of your ultimate authority and power for our listeners!

[Tabitha] I see Moe...

[Rhonda] Moe, the Centaur? Favorite Centaur Moe? What's he up to?

[Tabitha] Licking the gate. Wants out of the pen.

[Rhonda] Now, I'm almost afraid to ask, but do you see any - you know - threats out there?

[Tabitha] Threats all around us... converging... like a noose, tightening! Two-head-bear people astride battle cattles!

[Rhonda] Not the dreaded battle cattle training to hunt mutants?

[Rhonda] Would it be going too far to say that your gift of True Eyesight is the only thing saving our community from annihilation?

[Rhonda] Because I think it's so important for everyone - even the dumb-dumbs - how impossible it is to sneak up on us! More after this!

On the Array, Part 1#

Evidently, there was at one point a mission to take over the satellite array while Tabitha was still in charge.

Tabitha: I know what you're here for! You think you're the first to try to take over this array!? Well guess where the ones who came before you are?

Tabitha: Dead! That's where they are.

Raul: Dead's not a place. You can't go *to* Dead. No one vacations in Dead.

Tabitha: Shut - up - Raul!

On the Array, Part 2#

Tabitha: Fine! You want the equipment here so badly!? Here, I'll let you have a piece!

Tabitha: I'm not screwing around here. I'm prepared to blow this whole place to hell if I have to.

Raul: But you only had me place the one explosive...

Tabitha: Not now, Raul!

On Raul#

Tabitha is unnamed here, as her name had not been decided until later in development.

Leader: Good luck getting that door open. It will only open if you know the password, which you'll never guess!

Raul: Yes, they'd have a 1 in 739452466138 chance of guessing it. But we both know that will never happen.

Leader: So tru- Hey, that number was the same as the password. What are the odds of that?

Raul: Sigh.

Boulder City Workers#

Speaker	Text	File
Boulder City Worker	Well, well, well. Look what walked in.
Boulder City Worker	Nobody around here's hiring if you're looking for work.

Brotherhood Guards at HELIOS One#

At some point, it was possible for Helios One to be turned over to the Brotherhood of Steel. What remains of this are some greetings as well as dialogue factions for Brotherhood front gate guards and some generic NPCs with internal names that place them in these roles.

Speaker	Text	File
Female 1	We will not lose this place again.

Cachino#

Unused dialogue for Cachino where he reacts to Clanden's arrest:

Speaker	Text	File
Player	Clanden has been arrested.
Cachino	Yeah, we saw the troopers come through. I can't imagine things are going to work out well for him.

Caesar#

Some unused dialogue for Caesar, where the player bargains with him for the Brotherhood's survival:

Speaker	Text	File
Player	<Speech 55> When the Legion attacks Hoover Dam, the Brotherhood will attack HELIOS One.
Caesar	[SUCCEEDED] And you think the value of their attack on HELIOS, the chaos it will sow behind the Profligates' lines, is worth letting them live.
Caesar	All right, let it be so. The Brotherhood will have to be dealt with eventually, but for the moment, they {getting one over on them}live to serve.
Player	When we attack the dam the Brotherhood will rise from their bunker to conquer HELIOS One!
Caesar	[FAILED] And you think they'll stop at that? How long before they attack the dam, or Vegas?
Caesar	The risks outweigh the rewards. Go back to their bunker and finish the job.

Captain Pappas#

An unused line for Pappas where the player could report Clanden for murder. In the final game, the dialogue tree progresses just short of this point; the option to reveal Clanden as the culprit never appears.

Speaker	Text	File
Player	It is a guy named Clanden.
Pappas	Clanden? Okay, I'll send some troops over there to bring him in.

Casino Guard#

Speaker	Text	File
Casino Guard	{Frowns}Hold up, you look new to Vegas - I'll keep it short: no weapons allowed in the casinos.
Casino Guard	Keep to the games, and there won't be any problems.
Player	All right, here you go.
Casino Guard	{Searched the player}All right, you're clean. Come back by here when you're done at the tables.
Casino Guard	Back for your gear? Here you go.
Player	[Sneak] Sure, take whatever you can find.
Casino Guard	{Player fails the sneak attempt}[FAILED] Nice try, wiseass. Now hand everything over before you make a second mistake.
Casino Guard	[FAILED] Oh, now, what surprise - someone trying to smuggle in weapons.
Casino Guard	Look, jackass, the job's rough enough as it is without troublemakers like you, so either hand it all over or take your caps elsewhere.
Player	I'm going in - touch my weapons, I'll kill you.
Casino Guard	{Player attacks}You just made a big mistake.

Lindsay#

Lindsay is the Mini Boomer at Nellis who is missing her teddy bear, Mr. Cuddles.

Speaker	Text	File
Player	Think really hard. What were you doing when you saw him last?
Lindsay	Oh! I remember now. I was playing hide-and-seek in the big hangar. Mr. Loyal made us leave, though.

Max#

Max is the boy in Freeside who chases his friend Stacey around with Euclid's C-Finder.

Speaker	Text	File
Player	I'm a space soldier. The general sent me to ask you to borrow your gun to stop an alien invasion.
Max	Really? Cool! Bring it back to me when you're done, okay? I think Stacey might be turning into an alien.

Melody#

Melody is the slave girl at the Fort.

Speaker	Text	File
Player	{Child At Heart}Don't worry - I won't tell on you if you don't tell on me.
Melody	Okay. Um... do you think you could help me?

Clanden#

Lure#

Unused dialogue for two cut routes of the How Little We Know quest; the first is part of a route where the player would use knowledge of Clanden's exploits to lure him to his secret room, where he could be killed:

Speaker	Text	File
Player	I hear you have some exotic tastes when it comes to women.
Clanden	{Annoyed}Oh did you now? What business is that of yours, and why the fuck should I care?
Player	[SPEECH 50] Oh, I was just told to deliver a girl to the spare room you keep up here.
Clanden	[SUCCEEDED]{Excited} Oh, already? I figured it would be a couple days. Well, let's go meet the lucky lady.
Player	Well... I... I have some exotic tastes too!
Clanden	[FAILED]{Laughs} I don't care much about your tastes. Get lost and leave me alone.
Player	I thought that maybe I could be your next playtoy. Your exploits are well known.
Clanden	Well, look at you! It's so rare I get a volunteer. Yes, let's head to my special room. Follow me, we'll talk there.
Player	Sorry, I was thinking about someone else. I have a different question though.
Clanden	Alright, but you're starting to get on my nerves.

Clanden would use the first line while en route to the room, and the second two once inside:

Speaker	Text	File
Player
Clanden	Let's get this going.
Player
Clanden	{Angry}What the fuck are you trying to pull here? Where is my girl? Now I'm gonna have to kill your sorry ass.
Player
Clanden	Ok little lady, let's get started. You look like a tough piece of meat, I'm going to enjoy tenderizing you.

Arrest#

These lines are for an unused second route where NCR MPs would enter Gomorrah and arrest Clanden:

Speaker	Text	File
MP	Clanden, under the authority of the New California Republic, I place you under arrest for murder.
Clanden	What? Are you fucking kidding me? You can't do this, the Omertas aren't going to stand by and let you arrest me.
MP	The Omertas have no say in this matter. This is a legal matter now. You'll have to come with us.
Clanden	Alright. I'll come quietly, but this is fucked.

Colonel Moore & Paladin Todd#

If the player had negotiated an alliance between the NCR and Brotherhood, there would originally occur a short scene between Colonel Moore and a Paladin named Todd where the later would demand the NCR stop using the Brotherhood's armor. While Paladin Todd will appear at Hoover Dam when turning this task in, he and Moore lack dialogue regarding this and the scene will not play:

Speaker	Text	File
Todd	This is unacceptable, we demand the immediate return of our power armor.
Moore	A battle is about to be fought out there, to come here requesting our men to give up their armor is insane.
Todd	It is not your armor, that power armor is property of the Brotherhood of Steel and you have no right to claim it as your own.

The player could then discuss this with Moore:

Speaker	Text	File
Player
Moore	Damn Brotherhood, bunch of elitist jerks. What were we to do, leave good armor out in the wastes to rust?
Player	<Speech 60> They have a point, it is their armor. You should give it back.
Moore	[SUCCEEDED] Fine, this isn't worth the trouble to fight over.
Player	You should listen to them. They have lasers, you know.
Moore	[FAILED] No, we have men to outfit and are putting it to good use.
Player	I'll find you when you're done here.
Moore	Wait for me downstairs, this won't take long.

If successfully convinced, Moore would say the following to Todd:

Speaker	Text	File
Moore	You know what? I don't need this bullshit right now. We'll take off that goddamn power armor, if it'll just shut you up.

Alternatively, the player could speak to Todd instead:

Speaker	Text	File
Player
Todd	{snort} NCR, no better than common thieves. Where do they get off stealing our armor?

The player could either convince him to let the NCR use the armor:

Speaker	Text	File
Player	<Speech 40> Would it be so bad to lend them the armor for the battle?
Todd	[SUCCEEDED] It would mean more people better protected and able to fight.
Player	Would it be so bad to lend them the armor for the battle?
Todd	[FAILED] Yes, it would be, we can't have outsiders running around using our technology.

Alternatively, the player could let them resolve the issue themselves.

Speaker	Text	File
Player	I'm sure you two can settle this.
Todd	I'm sure that we can.

Crimson Caravan Guards#

The player would apparently have to ask around at the Crimson Caravan Company for Janet, rather than just immediately knowing of her.

Speaker	Text
Player	Do you know any redheads in these parts?
Player	I'm looking for a redhead girl, do you know any around here?
Player	I'm looking for a redheaded girl around here.

Daniel#

Daniel is the Fiend jailer in Vault 3. It seems that you originally could enter conversation with him. The dialogue he has in the final game is still a response to this question, but used as a greeting, without entering conversation, likely meaning the line was just reused.

Speaker	Text
Player	I got a little turned around. Where can I find your boss?

Dazzle#

Speaker	Text
Player	Did he ever tell you anything about what he was up to?
Player	I'm asking the questions here. Tell me what you know.

Dobson#

Dobson is the NCR Ranger holed up in Hidden Valley. These lines all lack responses.

Speaker	Text
Player	There's a Brotherhood of Steel base inside one of the bunkers here!
Player	You might want to know that I fixed your radio earlier.
Player	I did what I could, but the capacitor needs to be replaced.
Player	HVRangerRadioFixedTalk
Player	HVRangerRetort

Doctor Rotson#

These dialogue lines are stated as belonging to an NPC named "Doctor Canton" in the Secondary Location Dialogue quest. This NPC later went on to become Doctor Rotson, this is evidenced by the fact that in the final game ownership of Canton's unused inventory trunk is assigned to Doctor Rotson. There are a number of dialogue responses in the July 21st build which have the prefix "VDialogueSL" in their filenames, which belong to a ghoul doctor. They may have belonged to Doctor Rotson.

Speaker	Text
Player	I think I might be addicted to something.
Player	I think I'll tough it out.
Player	Yes, cure me.
Player	I'm hurt. I need help, Doc.
Player	All right, here's your money.
Player	Here's your money.
Player	All right, fix me.
Player	That's all I need.
Player	There was something else I needed...
Player	On second thought, I'll be fine.
Player	That's ridiculous. I'm not paying you that much!
Player	I need medical supplies.
Player	What is this place?
Player	On second thought, I'll be fine.
Player	Here's your money.
Player	All right, here's your money.

Drill Sergeant & NCR Recruits#

The drill sergeant and recruits were originally present in the game, placed at Camp McCarran. However, they got removed by patches meant to free up memory on consoles for the DLCs.

Drill Sergeant#

Speaker	Text	File
Drill Sergeant	I appreciate the improvements in the mess. Keep up the good work.
Drill Sergeant	These recruits aren't ready, if the Legion comes knocking.
Drill Sergeant	Get running the obstacle course, if you want. You look like you could use some exercise.
Drill Sergeant	I'm busy. See the brass if you want to chat.
Drill Sergeant	No time for idle chatter. These boys need whipping into shape.
Drill Sergeant	Either join the recruits running the course or leave the area.
Drill Sergeant	Paperwork, paperwork, paperwork... It just never ends.
Drill Sergeant	{Angry grizzled Drill Instructor yell}Move it! Move it! Move it! Get those legs up you sorry bastards!
Drill Sergeant	{Angry grizzled Drill Instructor yell}Move, you lazy bastards! Do you think the legion is going to slow down for your sorry asses?!
Drill Sergeant	{Angry grizzled Drill Instructor yell}Quit dragging your feet, recruit. Pick it up!
Drill Sergeant	{Angry grizzled Drill Instructor yell}You run like a feeble old man, private!
Drill Sergeant	{Angry grizzled Drill Instructor yell}You can rest when you're dead, private! Move your ass!
Drill Sergeant	{Angry grizzled Drill Instructor yell}How the hell did you make it through boot camp, private?!
Drill Sergeant	{Angry grizzled Drill Instructor yell}You think it burns now, wait until I sit on your shoulders!
Drill Sergeant	{Angry grizzled Drill Instructor yell}The road to hell is paved by the bleached bones of privates that fell by the wayside, boys.
Drill Sergeant	{Angry grizzled Drill Instructor yell}Pathetic! My 80-year-old grandmother runs faster than you!
Drill Sergeant	{Angry grizzled Drill Instructor yell}Good thing you're not a ranger. When a ranger quits he's dead!
Drill Sergeant	{Angry grizzled Drill Instructor yell}Sound off like you've got a pair!
Drill Sergeant	{Angry grizzled Drill Instructor yell}That's better, but you're still not winning the battle, boys.

NCR Recruits#

Speaker	Text	File
NCR Recruit	Sir, yes, Sir!
NCR Recruit

Early Come Fly With Me Leftovers#

There are several lines of dialogue for an early version of the quest Come Fly With Me that indicate the ghoul prisoners could once have be found alive. At this point, the player could kill the nightkin, negotiate for their release or help them sneak out with stealth boys. In the final game, the prisoners are dead. All of these lines lack responses. Based on form IDs, Come Fly With Me looks to be one of the very earliest implemented quests, predating much of even the main quests, so these are likely very early leftovers.

Ghoul Prisoners#

Speaker	Text
Player	Here, I've got three stealthboys.
Player	The mutants are dead. You're free.
Player	The guards are gone. You're free to leave.
Player	Harland sent me. I'm here to get you out of here.
Player	Actually, I was just wandering around.
Player	Not yet. I'm still working on it.
Player	No, I just wanted to come down here to kill you up close.
Player	Harland sent me. The way is clear, so get going.

Nightkin Master (Davison)#

Speaker	Text
Player	DELETE THIS

Player	Why can't you just send your men in to kill the ghoul?
Player	I have to go.
Player	Well, good luck finding them. I'm headed elsewhere.
Player	I think I've helped enough for one day. Bye.
Player	Who was this "Master" you served?
Player	I'll think about it.
Player	You can release the prisoners. I promise they're no threat.
Player	Which is?
Player	What makes you think there are Stealth Boys here?
Player	Where will you go once you have them?
Player	Why did you all come here, in the middle of nowhere?

Harland#

Speaker	Text
Player	Your friends are safe. I just helped them sneak out of here.
Player	I need to search this room.
Player	Maybe you missed it. Can I come up and look?
Player	Those things out there want the stash of StealthBoys in this room.
Player	Who are you?

Elizabeth Kiernan [sic]#

These player-only lines are obviously from an early version of Elizabeth Kieran.

Speaker	Text
Player	Do you give supplies to the Locals, too?
Player	Why are you doing this for us?
Player	{Speech check >= 50}
Player	One of the victims confirmed his attacker was an NCR officer.
Player	I should be going.

Emily Ortal#

Emily Ortal is the woman outside the Lucky 38 who assigns the player to bug House's computer system. This dialogue option is supposed to be a perception check of 6, but the check was mistakenly applied to Emily, and since her perception is 5 it will never appear. This can be remedied by opening the console, clicking Emily, and entering the command forceav perception 6. This error was also fixed in J.E. Sawyer's unofficial mod.

Speaker	Text	File
Player	Did something... happen between you two?
Emily	Ugh. So gross. It was bad enough that I didn't get any data out of the Securitron. This is why I didn't want to talk about it.
Emily	It only happened once. I chalk it up to sleep deprivation and one atomic cocktail too many.
Player	Don't be so hard on yourself. Life would be dull if it weren't for all the little mistakes.
Emily	{teasing a bit}I take it you're speaking from experience.
Emily	You're right though. He's gone now, so I'm not going to let it bother me anymore. {sweet}Thanks.
Player	Alcohol is the only way Benny could ever get any action from a smart girl like you.
Emily	{flattered}That's sweet of you to say, even if it isn't true.
Player	Getting sucker punched by Benny happens to the best of us.
Emily	Good point.
Player	Maybe you should chalk it up to being irresponsible and naive.
Emily	And maybe you should go jump off Hoover Dam, jackass.

Extended Silver Rush Introduction#

It seems Gloria Van Graff once had a bit of history with the individual seen incinerated at her command upon the player's first visit to the Silver Rush.

Speaker	Text	File
Gloria	Jean-Baptiste, could you bring out the volunteer?
Soren	W-What is this, Ms. Van Graff?
Gloria	This is a lesson, Mr. Soren. A lesson in faith.
Soren	I don't understand. Who is this man? What does this have to do with our deal?
Gloria	Everything. Up until recently, this man was an employee of mine. He's quite handsome, don't you think?
Gloria	I know I did. We became... close. I warned him that I was a very jealous woman, and he said he understood.
Gloria	Apparently he didn't. Last week, I chanced upon him in Gomorrah, being serviced by one of their two-cap whores. I was not pleased.
Gloria	I tell you all this because I want you to know that this man means a great deal to me.
Gloria	Do it.
Gloria	Never break faith with the Van Graffs, Mr. Soren.
Gloria	I expect you'll have the rest of our payment ready tomorrow morning.
Gloria	Okay everyone, show's over. Back to work!
???	{laughter}	N/A (File missing)
Jean-Baptiste	Ha ha, I think he wet himself before he left. That was pretty good making up that part about sleeping with Jacob.
Jean-Baptiste	You {stressed}did make that part up, right, Glory?
Jean-Baptiste	Damn it, girl, what has mama always said about tipping the help? I thought this was about him stealing money from us.
Gloria	He {stressed}was stealing money, though he could have kept it for all I cared. God knows he earned it.

Fantastic#

Speaker	Text	Note
Fantastic	I look so good in this shit, I want you to call me Fucking Spectacular from now on.	Alternate greeting for when the BoS was in possession of HELIOS One.
Player	What are you doing here?
Player	That's right. I'm here for your job.
Fantastic	Ah, shit. Shit, man. I need this. Gotta pay the bills. And I'm addicted to a lot of different kinds of chems. I mean a lot.

Freeform NCRCF Leftovers#

These topics all lack responses. They are leftovers from when the player was supposed to help various Powder Gangers with different tasks around the prison (similar to the Boomers at Nellis.)

Eddie#

Speaker	Text
Player	[Lie]You're in trouble - the NCR is sending a battalion to take this place back.
Player	So, do I get a real job now or what?
Player	What kind of job?
Player	I wouldn't worry about it. They're probably just rumors.
Player	I just wanted to get close to you to kill you.
Player	Too many men are sitting around. Put extra guards on watch.
Player	I'd put some men with rifles on the guard towers.

Carter#

Carter would've wanted the player to help crack a safe.

Speaker	Text

Player	What do you think of the NCR?
Cook-Cook	NCR? Bunch of soft little bitches, they've got no stomach for life in the wasteland. Got some choice strange, though, I'll give 'em that.
Cook-Cook	{Revoltingly fond reminiscence}Heh heh... yeah. I'll give 'em that all right.
Player	So, you cook all these animals around here?
Cook-Cook	That's right. Brahmin, mole rats, lizards... the occasional traveler lost in the wrong part of town.
Cook-Cook	Not Queenie though. I'd never cook my Queenie.
Player	What's a "Queenie?"
Cook-Cook	That's Queenie. She's the prettiest Brahmin in the Wastelands. {Really creepy baby talk}Aren't you, Queenie, yes you are, who's a good girl?

Nephi	No, you fucking dolt! Why the hell would it be a pleasure?!
Player	That's a nice club you've got there,
Nephi	Fuckin' A right it is. This baby's my life, my love, my strong right arm. Killed a lot of fuckers with this hunk of iron, yessir.
Player	Can you tell me about Cook-Cook and Violet?
Nephi	I could. I'm not terribly inclined to, though. If you go talk to them, they might kill you and rob me of the fun.	Said to male players
Nephi	Really? Listen... you don't want to mess with Cook-Cook. And you realy don't want to let him get you alone. Trust me.	Said to female players
Player	How many NCR citizens you figure you've killed with that club?
Nephi	Huh? Oh, lots. More than any other Fiend - hundreds, maybe. Wham, bam, "oh god my brains, you hit me in my brains." Easy as that.
Player	I heard you came from Utah. A friend of yours asked me to check on you. Bert?
Nephi	Bert? That scaly, corpse-looking fuck, you tell him I'm never going back to his little cult!

Violet	Heh heh. Good meat, huh? Cat meat, rat meat, dog meat - maybe even you meat!

House	Hold on, now, hold on. Just a moment...	Control room
House	Turn around and leave, and I'll... I won't attack you any further.
House	Just... stay away from the console. It doesn't do anything...
House	You've come back to kill me this time, I assume?	For when the player leaves and returns
House	Ironic, how this turned out. The thousands of hours I spent calculating odds, running projections, planning for every contingency...

In-Game Introduction#

Dialogue was written and recorded for two in-game versions of the intro FMV, both differing from what was used in the final game. Coding for the short version remains and is bypassed in favor of the FMV while the long version seems to be orphaned entirely. Some of Benny's lines from the long version have alternate placeholders recorded by a different (unknown) voice actor; the long version's script more closely resembles the placeholders.

According to a 2024 interview with lead designer Josh Sawyer, the intro sequence was intended to be in-engine, much like Fallout 3's birth sequence, but was ultimately cut in favor of the pre-rendered FMV on account of an unexpected deluge of technical issues.

Long Version#

Speaker	Text	Note
Jessup	That the thing you were talking about?
Benny	Beautiful, ain't it? It's platinum.
Jessup	Can't see shit out here.
McMurphy	Either way, you owe us.
Benny	I told you, you'll get paid when we get there.
McMurphy	We just walked through hell, man.
Benny	What are you, dense? I don't got it here!

McMurphy	Then you can just go back by yourself.
Benny	Fine. Anything to get you two to shut up.
Jessup	Hey. What do you want me to do with this?
Benny	Almost forgot. Take off the hood.
Benny	Well, kid, you're our last loose end.
Benny	Shame you had to get caught in the middle of all this. Bet you don't even know why you're here.
Benny	But hey, if it makes you feel any better, it's nothing personal.
Benny	Just bad luck.
Victor	Howdy, pardner! Sure is one fine evening, ain't it?
Victor	Gimme your hand, pardner. Let's get you out of there.
Victor	You okay, pardner? You look like you could use a sarsaparilla.

Benny	Truth is, game was rigged from the start.

Jack#

Jack is the Boomer who is in love with Janet. This line is supposed to play if you have her run into Boomer territory without the proper attire, but the check on cause of death is not properly set.

Speaker	Text	File
Jack	You're a terrible person! I loved her! And you let her run right into our killzone. Why didn't you stop her?

Jailhouse Rock NPCs#

Jalihouse Rock is a cut NCR-aligned quest with a few artifacts left in the game data. The four remaining NPCs with ties to the quest all have some placeholder dialogue, but had voice work recorded regardless. This is probably because the developer responsible forgot to delete them/add them to the donotrecord voice group and not because they would use these lines exactly. For more information, see unused NPCs.

Speaker	Text	File
MP Fretwell	Hi. I'm Frewell^(sic).
MP Fretwell	Fretwell again, brah.

Jeannie May Crawford#

Some unused dialogue for Jeannie May, related to a cut route of the quest Come Fly With Me where she would ask the player to kill the ghouls at REPCONN. The topic where the player asks about what's been happening at REPCONN would have led into these.

Speaker	Transcript	File
Player	What are they doing?
Jeannie May	I don't know what they're up to and I don't want to know. I just hope no harm comes to Novac.	00163102_1
Jeannie May	Not much to live off of around here, except salvage from that factory. If they made off with anything expensive, we'd be hurting something fierce.	00163102_4
Jeannie May	But I will say this. If all of 'em turned up dead tomorrow, I couldn't see as to how they'd be missed.	00163102_2
Jeannie May	That might even be a desirable thing, knowing the town was safe from the likes of them. There'd be a reward in it if some brave soul made it happen.	00163102_3
Player	I killed the ghouls at REPCONN.
Jeannie May	Well, saints alive. That is a load off. Nothing to be done, though. Those ghouls just didn't know when they weren't wanted. Couldn't take a hint.	000CD3E2_1
Player	I got the ghouls to leave the area. They won't be bothering you anymore.
Jeannie May	Leave? I don't believe that was what was discussed. They could be back tomorrow knocking on my door wanting hand-outs.	000CD3E3_1
Jeannie May	I'm sorry, I know what I promised, but my mind is just not at ease about this. I'm afraid I can't pay you for what you done.	000CD3E3_2

Jerry The Punk#

Dialogue for an unused route of the quest Cry Me A River where the player could give Jerry Med-X:

Speaker	Transcript	File
Player	Why don't you just cheat?
Jerry	Cheat? The only way I could cheat is if I was so doped up on painkillers that I don't feel anything.
Player	Just wait here a minute, I'll be back with some Med-X.
Jerry	Really? Wow, um... okay. Thanks.
Player	Painkillers like these, you mean?
Jerry	Whoa... you were serious. Okay, yeah, this might just work. Thanks.

Joe Cobb#

Joe Cobb has multiple unused topics directed towards him, with none having any responses left over. Some topics are variants of used ones, while others are related to the removed objective of freeing Goodsprings' Bighorners. Also present are placeholder lines of dialogue, voiced by someone unknown. (Due to subtitles not being present for these lines, they were either made from scratch or taken from the finished version's lines.)

Speaker	Text	File	Note
Player	All right, I'll kill him for you.
Player	What's the point of freeing the Bighorners?
Player	Ringo's already settled. What's next?
Player	Way ahead of you - I killed Ringo earlier.
Player	The Bighorners are loose.
Joe Cobb	Huh?
Joe Cobb	He's some trader who decided he'd rather shoot than pay the toll for being in our territory. He's hiding somewhere in town.
Joe Cobb	That's how you want to play it, huh?
Joe Cobb	There are too many places to hide around here. He'd see me coming and then "bam", I'm dead.
Joe Cobb	He doesn't know you, though. He probably won't shoot right away.
Joe Cobb	Alright, let's do this. Stay out of our way.

Johnson Nash#

The first two interactions revolve around unused functionality of Primm's sheriff dying yet again and you finding a new candidate. Then two empty player-only topics and then the original dialogue Nash would've given you in regards to your strange package. This was before Johnson was given new lines to set up Ulysses for the DLC and these ones would go unused as a result.

Speaker	Text	Note
Player	How can I bring back rule of law to Primm?
Nash	With the NCR driven off? I figure our only hope'd be for someone like you to find us someone who's crazy or dimwitted enough to take the job.
Nash	With Meyers dead and his deputies gone, Primm's only hope is to accept NCR rule. If you run across one of their patrols, tell 'em so.
Player	Will you sign this formal letter asking the NCR to take control of Primm?
Nash	So you convinced those NCR sons of bitches to take an interest, did you? Well, we need the help. I'll sign.	Dialogue filename references "Clay" at 188 Trading Post, this refers to The Forecaster, but seeing as the dialogue is correctly prefixed with a Primm mention, the second part may be the result of a copy and paste error.
Player	Do you know who he was? Where he went?
Player	What's Novac?
Player	What was strange about it?
Nash	To start with, it was a robot that set it up! Came rolling in with a picture of a cowboy on a screen where its face should be.	This voice file was seemingly overwritten with an incorrect one, or the other file might have been copied and given a different name. Whatever the case, while the written text is unique, the audio is a duplicate of another one of Johnson's lines.
Nash	Had me send a request to the Express office in Hub, for seven couriers to be hired. Each one to carry {beat, deciding on right word, emphasis}bric-a-brac, seemed to me!
Nash	Playing cards, dice, chess pieces, trinkets like that. Then, next thing I know, he turns around and says he wants six couriers, not seven!
Nash	Has me send on the "corrected" order for six couriers along with a bunch of letters and numbers, like some kind of code or something!
Nash	Don't ask me what that was about, {cuz}because I never seen anything like it. {realizing}Anyways, you must've been Courier 6, then? The Poker Chip?
Nash	Primm had rule of law for the blink of an eye, but now we're back where we started.

The King#

Speaker	Text	File	Note
The King	Ah, my little friend has come at last. Not me, darling, though you were doing just fine.
Player	I'm looking for a way into the Strip.
The King	I might just be able to help you with that. But it's not something I do easily, or often. You'd have to earn it. You willing to do that?

Legion Explorer at Nelson#

This guy comes out to forcegreet you upon nearing the Legion encampment at Nelson, asking you "Have you come to Nelson seeking your death, Profligate?" Two player responses go unused, the first being a standard attack line without a response linked, and the other being an alternate Terrifying Presence perk check. While the Explorer's voiced reply is identical to the one in the final game, the file is different, suggesting a different take might have been planned once. Also of note, in his listed topics, topic 1 and 3 seem to be absent, suggesting at least two more removed dialogue options.

Speaker	Text	File
Player	Not without out^(sic) fight. <Attack.>
Player	Good thing you're wearing a skirt, makes pissing yourself go easier. <Attack.>
Exporer	{Afraid}Brothers, help!

Legion Mongrel Death References#

Lieutenant Hayes and Sergeant McGee#

This conversation was supposed to occur after selecting an NCR sheriff for Primm. Meyers has a similarly unused speech. The first line of this speech seems to be missing in game, it is actually present in the February the 16th build.

Speaker	Text	File
McGee	Yes Lieutenant!
Hayes	Are you ready to depart for Primm?
McGee	Yes sir!
Hayes	Ok, we have some soldiers heading to town now. I'll have them sweep the Bison Steve before they start regular patrols.

Lucius#

In the final game, Lucius takes over as the Legion's primary quest giver in the event that Caesar is killed during surgery. Despite this, these player lines intended for conversation with Lucius have the player report to him on the Boomers, White Gloves and Brotherhood of Steel, suggesting the quest originally allowed for Lucius to stand in sooner.

Speaker	Text
Player	The Brotherhood of Steel will aid us against the NCR.
Player	I wasn't able to get the support of the White Glove Society.
Player	The Boomers will come when I call them.

Marilyn#

See unused creatures.

Speaker	Text
Player	What kind of upgrades?
Player	I'd like to talk about something else.

Meg Reynolds#

Meg is the Mayor of an unmarked location called the Underpass. She and her constituents were removed from the game leaving their rather useless territory completely empty. She has six dialogue topics directed towards her, but no responses other than her greeting.

Speaker	Text	File
Meg	Well howdy.
Player	Who are you?
Player	What is this place?
Player	You seem distressed. Is something going on?
Player	I'll do what I can.
Player	No.
Player	Goodbye.

Presumably, the thing she seems distressed about is the Underpass' broken water purifier.

Meyers#

This is a speech Meyers was supposed to deliver to some of his favorite NCRCF thugs after being selected as Primm's new sheriff.

Speaker	Text	File
Meyers	Okay, folks. I called you out here because I've grown to trust you. Primm, the town to the south, is looking for some new law.
Meyers	I know that you guys don't have experience with law enforcement{pause} at least not on the enforcement side.
Meyers	However I also know that you are honorable and looking for some redemption. This is our chance for redemption.
Meyers	Now let's head down there and bring them some law!

Mortimer#

While this dialogue option is fully implemented and not disabled, it has a condition that makes it impossible to see: the player must have more than one humanoid companion in their employ. This feature was most likely disabled in order to ensure the game functioned on consoles.

Speaker	Text	File
Player	Would my companion here make a suitable replacement meal?
Mortimer	Which one?

NCR Deserters at Vikki and Vance#

These player-only lines are remnants of a time during development when the Vikki and Vance was the scene of a slaughter, rather than a hideout from the escaped convicts.

Speaker	Text
Player	No raider would be foolish enough to go parading around in that.
Player	By extorting money from the locals? What happened here?
Player	It looks like these people got more than just hurt.
Player	There is always a choice.
Player	You're welcome to try.
Player	They had it coming if they drew on you.
Player	So thats it? You've resorted to raiding and crime?
Player	Perhaps I could convince them to take you back.
Player	I'll see what I can do.
Player	I'll see what I can do.
Player	You're right. You guys are totally screwed.
Player	Well you made the right one.

NCR Mixed Reputation Restrictions#

If the player had a mixed reputation with the NCR, they would stop the player from sleeping in beds at their outposts:

Speaker	Text	File
Trooper	This is not a market, sir - you need to improve your reputation with the NCR before you're welcome in our outposts.	0015FFAD_1
Trooper	You're walking on thin ice with the NCR. It's time to decide where your loyalties lay, friend. Until then don't expect any hospitality from us.	0015FFAE_1
Trooper	The NCR isn't in the habit of letting loose cannons like you just wander our bases.	0015FFAF_1
Trooper	Get up! You can't sleep here - move on.	0015FFB0_1
Trooper	Wake up, merc! These cots are for NCR only.	0015FFB1_1

NCR MP Ambush#

Some dialogue for an unused sequence where NCR MPs would attempt to extort or attack a player who had a negative reputation with the NCR:

Speaker	Text	File
Player

Trooper	See, my friends and I, we were kinda wondering if we should give you a good beating right now, or save it for when we catch you outside..	0016001B_2
Trooper	We don't like you Mojave scum, and we like you even less when you fuck with our Strip.	0016001B_3

Trooper	Yeah, that's right. Now, get the fuck out of our sight, before we change our minds.	00160016_1

Oliver Swanick#

Oliver Swanick, the winner of Nipton's lottery, is sent running away to the wilderness by an AI package after speaking with you. He usually meets his demise during this travel, but it seems that the player was originally meant to encounter Swanick at a later date. It's unknown where exactly he would've reappeared, but it seems that he tried to forget everything that happened in Nipton. The audio files that are referenced by this dialogue no longer exist.

Speaker	Text
Player	You're the guy who won the lottery.
Oliver	{suddenly angry}Lottery? You remember the lottery?
Oliver	{attacking the player}Goddamn you! I don't need to remember that!
Player	Do you remember the message you were told to spread?
Oliver	{bewildered}The message? You know about that...?
Oliver	{bewildered}There was some kind of message, but... I don't seem to remember it.
Oliver	{Jubilant again}Yeah... that air! Smell it!

Pacer#

Freeside Expository Dialog#

Speaker	Text	File
Player	Tell me about Freeside.
Pacer	It ain't much to look at, but this dump has something that even the Strip doesn't, and that's absolute freedom.
Pacer	You go other places, and there's always someone screaming at you to act a certain way, or to not do certain things.
Pacer	Freeside's not like that. Everyone here is free to do whatever they want, and I for one wouldn't want it any other way.
Player	What about crime?
Pacer	What about it? Someone takes your stuff, you're free to take it back. If you can't, maybe you shouldn't have come to Freeside in the first place.
Player	So there's no law here at all?
Pacer	People can do whatever they want, they just have to keep in mind what'll happen afterward.
Pacer	I guess you could say we don't have law so much as consequences.
Player	Don't the Kings run this place, though?
Pacer	We do what we want, just like everybody else. We just have more guys, so other people tend to do what we want, too.
Pacer	If somebody does something we don't like, we let them know about it. If they're strong enough not to care about us liking it, good for them.
Player	Is there anyone like that in Freeside?
Pacer	Well, the Van Graffs for one. We had a slight difference of opinion when they first showed up.
Pacer	Changed our minds pretty quick after a brief demonstration of how much firepower they're packing.
Pacer	We could probably take them, but we'd lose a lotta guys doing it.
Player	I heard a rumor that there's something between you and the Van Graffs. What happened?
Pacer	Pfff, that's old news. I had some fun with that girl that runs their operation, and then I got tired of her. So I moved on.
Pacer	She don't like that, see? Normally, I bet she'd just have a guy killed for doing that, but as you can see, I'm still around.
Pacer	Most people think it's cause she doesn't want to start an all-out war with us, but that ain't it at all. She's still got it bad for me.
Player	What is there to do in Freeside?
Pacer	Aside from this place, there's the Atomic Wrangler just up the street. Women, gambling, booze, you name it, they got you covered.
Pacer	If you're more of a prude, the Followers run a mission out of the Old Mormon Fort up toward the north gate. Great place if you're hurt, I guess.
Pacer	If you like things dangerous, just past the Wrangler is the Silver Rush, where the Van Graff family peddles their weapons.
Pacer	Their stuff is outrageously priced, but if you want to shoot something hi-tech, they're the best game in town.
Player	What can you tell me about the Kings?
Pacer	Not much to tell. We're a bunch of guys that just want to do our own thing, and anyone who's got a problem with that can shove it.
Player	How did you join the Kings?
Pacer	I didn't join the Kings. I helped start the Kings. This whole operation you see here was put together by the King and yours truly.
Player	I'm trying to get to the Strip. Know anything that could help me out?
Pacer	You're looking to get past those tin cans at the gate, right? They let people by all the time, if they've got the caps.
Pacer	But if you're not rich, and I can tell you ain't, the King might be able to help you out, provided he likes you.

Unused King's Gambit Endings#

Poindexter	I'm going to roll over you.	Generic challenge accepted
Poindexter	Well now, this is an unexpected variable. You really must let me challenge you to a rematch, so I can analyze what passes for your strategy.	Player wins
Poindexter	I am unsurprised regarding your appalling lack of talent. Perhaps you'd care to try another hand? After all, you can only improve.	Player loses
Player	Yeah, let's play again.
Poindexter	Very well. I would wish you luck, but of course peerless intellect is all that matters here.
Player	I'm all done playing for now.
Poindexter	As you wish. Once you've salved your battered ego, perhaps you'll make another go of it.

Colonel Moore#

These lines are actually accessible during the last stages of the NCR questline due to a bug.

Speaker	Text	File
Player	How have things been since the battle?
Moore	Surprisingly good. Our forces have managed to secure the region with little resistance, and trade should soon reach an all-time high.
Moore	The brass was particularly surprised by the lack of domestic threats in the area. They were prepared to spend months pacifying known troublemakers.
Moore	When they found those threats absent, they turned to the man in charge of the area, but Hsu being Hsu, he denied having anything to do with it.
Moore	So now the men have to answer to Brigadier General Moore, and both they and I have you to thank for it.
Moore	We made a good team. I hope we can work together again in the future.
Player	Do you have any work for me?
Moore	I'm afraid I'm going to have to disappoint you. There's much to be done, but nothing for someone with your skills.
Moore	You should take some time off. You've earned it.
Player	What happened to the Legion?
Moore	With their leader dead, the rest of their army retreated to the east. We've sent scouts to track them, but that's it.
Moore	We don't have the forces or supplies necessary to chase them down. More's the pity.
Moore	Still, I've sent a few skilled men out to make sure their journey is "eventful". It should be a long time before they even think of returning.

Radio New Vegas#

Speaker	Text	Note
Radio	Intense fighting erupted on Hoover Dam as tensions between NCR and Caesar's Legion boiled over.
Radio	Reports indicate that NCR forces emerged victorious, and the Legion scattered amidst the defeat of its most feared military leader.	NCR victory
Radio	Preliminary word is that Caesar's Legion has taken control of the Dam, and that the NCR presence in Nevada is severely crippled.	Legion victory
Radio	While it initially appeared to be an NCR victory, we're receiving word that our own Mr. House may have been the one to secure the Dam for himself.	House victory
Radio	But in a shocking turn of events, the Dam has been rendered useless, and both sides have taken heavy casualties. Neither faction appears to have won.	Independent Vegas, dam destroyed
Radio	But in a shocking turn of events, an army of Securitrons has seized control of the Dam, preventing both sides from claiming it.	Independent Vegas
Radio	Sources at the Dam are telling us that the involvement of one key person appears to have heavily influenced the outcome.

Veronica#

Veronica	Not sure what my parents would think of me fighting for the NCR.	NCR victory
Veronica	But for New Vegas it seemed like this was the best chance at stability. I don't regret it.
Veronica	Never sided with a group of marauders before. But I think the Brotherhood stands a better chance against them than they did against the NCR.	Legion victory
Veronica	That gives me some hope.
Veronica	For some reason, it warms my heart that we fought for the kooky old geezer. Guess he reminds me of someone.	House victory
Veronica	Independent New Vegas. If that isn't redundant, I don't know what is.	Independent Vegas
Veronica	But I like its chances.

Beyond the impossibility of hearing Veronica's opinion on the outcome of the battle at Hoover Dam, it is also impossible to complete the game for House or the Legion without wiping out the Brotherhood's Mojave chapter.

Rotface#

Rotface is the ghoul hanging out on the pavement near Freeside's east exit. He really got screwed by the deadline, because he has a surprisingly well-developed subplot with more unused lines than most characters have dialogue total. A little-known "Easter egg" is that when the player buys enough tips from him, he will go and buy himself a new hat (Eulogy Jones' hat from Fallout 3, in fact).

Most players will likely never see this hat, because it requires that they buy exactly 10 random tips (not counting the first free tip), then leave and re-enter the cell. At this point, he will be wearing Eulogy's hat and his price for tips will increase to 10 without explanation. In the highly probable event that the player buys all 30 tips at once, they will never see the hat.

There are two things that do not trigger due to scripting errors, which prevent the subplot from continuing: Rotface interrupting tip delivery every 10 tips, and asking the player's opinion on his new hat once it is purchased. The remainder of the scripting after this point is completely nonexistent.

For those knowledgeable in the GECK, Rotface's script VFSRotfaceScript gives some insight into how he is probably supposed to be functioning.

First Choice#

When the player sees the snazzy new hat Rotface purchased for himself, they will be given the following greeting:

Speaker	Text	File
Rotface	Hey pal, you dig my new hat? I've been making some good money lately, and figured I'd treat myself.

The player will be given the following dialogue options, which effect what he will do at the 20-tip mark.

Speaker	Text	Note
Player	Yeah, it looks great.
Rotface	Exactly what I was thinking. It's nice to have a little style, you know?
Player	You look like an idiot.
Rotface	Yeah, it does look pretty sweet, doesn't {it}i- hey, screw you! Who asked you anyway? The crap I put up with...
Player	It's not exactly what I would have bought for myself.
Rotface	Oh yeah, what would you have gotten?
Player	Probably a weapon, given how dangerous it is around here.
Rotface	Yeah... that's a good idea... no sense making money and waiting for someone to just come and take it, right?
Player	I'd have saved the money, so I could someday get the hell out of here.
Rotface	Hmmm... you're a long-term thinker, man. I like that. You might be on to something there.
Player	I'd have given the money away.
Rotface	...Really? Wow, it never occurred to me to actually give the money away. Do people really do things like that?	Script notes: Long pause at the beginning as he's trying to decide if he heard the player right.
Rotface	But you're probably here for more of my special commodity, and luckily for you, I haven't been idle since last we spoke.
Rotface	However, all that hard work on my part means that the price has gone up. 100 a tip, now. You game?

After dispensing the next 10 tips for a total of 20, Rotface would tell the player to go away again until he acquired more tips to dispense, and his price per tip would increase to 100 caps.

Second Choice#

Rotface has a different greeting depending on the response the player had to his hat.

If the player said they liked the hat, Rotface will purchase a matching suit and have this greeting:

Speaker	Text	Note
Rotface	Hey pal, I made so much recently that I was able to afford this little number too. How do I look?
Player	Very classy.	This option leads to him being killed for being dressed too flashy in a bad neighborhood.
Rotface	You said it. With these threads, people are finally going to start noticing me.
Player	As good as a ghoul in a suit can look.	This leads to him attempting to mug the player.
Rotface	Fuck you, human. We don't all share your wonderful complexion. Some of us have to make do, you know?
Player	I don't care. Do you have any new info?	Outcome: Killed by haters.
Rotface	Yeesh, you're just all business, aren't you? Well, I like how I look, and that's what's important. Though it'd be nice if other people did too.	Script notes: Emphasis on the first "I" in "I like how I look". Also, the last sentence is said quickly and slightly under his breath.
Rotface	Anyway, I was just going to tell you that I've come across some new tidbits you might find interesting.
Rotface	And since you're just about my favorite person in the world, each one is only going to cost you 100 caps. Interested?

If the player said they didn't like the hat:

Speaker	Text	Note
Rotface	Look pal, I've been thinking. I know we got off to a bad start there, but let's put it behind us, okay?
Player	I'm sorry. Sorry you're such a prissy asshole.	Outcome: Attempted mugging.
Rotface	You're a real piece of work, you know that?
Player	I'm sorry. I was out of line before.	Outcome: Rotface joins the Followers of the Apocalypse
Rotface	It's cool. I'm just a little touchy about people making fun of me, especially smoothskins. But you're not all bad. Take the Followers, for example.
Rotface	Why, just the other week, one of them offered me a job. Can you imagine? Me, with a real job?
Rotface	Can you imagine? Me? With a real job?
Player	I've already forgotten it.	Outcome: Mugging.
Rotface	Yeah, I bet you have. Not important enough for you to remember, huh?

If the player said they would have purchased a weapon:

Speaker	Text	Note
Rotface	Hey, I thought about what you said before, and picked up this sweet piece. You were right, I feel much safer.
Player	Whoa, now. Watch where you point that thing. It's dangerous.	Outcome: Mugging.
Rotface	Dangerous... I like that. Maybe it's time people starting being afraid of me rather than the other way around.
Player	Good for you. No one should have to be afraid all the time.	Outcome: Followers.
Rotface	Unfortunately, it comes with the territory around here. But being afraid sucks, no doubt about it.
Player	Now you'll get some respect. You should give some hell to the people that used to push you around.	Outcome: This gets him killed for becoming too violent.
Rotface	Yeah... yeah, that's a good idea. They'll learn that shouldn't have messed with me. Just wait till they get what's coming to them!
Rotface	Oh yeah, I wanted to tell you that I got some new info for you. Each tip's gonna cost 100 caps now though.
Rotface	Cause I got plans. Big plans. So what do you say? Want a tip?
Rotface	Oh, hey, I almost forgot to tell you I heard a few things you might be interested in.
Rotface	I'm kind of sorry about this, but I'm going to have to up my price to 100 caps per tip from now on.
Rotface	It's getting tougher to discover new things that might interest a traveler such as yourself. I'm sure you understand. So, you interested or what?

If the player said they would have given the money away:

Speaker	Text	Note
Rotface	Hey, I'm sorry about being so dismissive about your suggestion before. I thought a lot about what you said.
Rotface	There've been times when just a little bit of money from a stranger would have made a huge difference to me, so I get where you're coming from.
Rotface	Maybe I could make that kind of difference for someone else... ah, who am I kidding?
Player	No, you could make a real difference.	Outcome: Followers.
Rotface	You really think so, pal? I'll start looking into it. I bet I can help a lot of people around here.
Player	Freeside's problems are too big for you to have much impact.	Outcome: Rotface leaves Freeside.
Rotface	You're probably right. This place has been going downhill for a long time. Maybe I could start over somewhere else.
Rotface	Just think of it. A new life...
Rotface	Oh yeah, I heard some new things that you might find interesting. I'm going to have to start charging 100 caps per tip, though.
Rotface	After all, I have to save up for my ticket out of here, right? So how about it? Want a tip?
Player	You believed that crap I said about giving the money away?	Outcome: Mugging.
Rotface	What? N-No, I knew you were just kidding. Ha ha. You're a funny one, all right.

If the player encouraged him to leave:

Speaker	Text	Note
Rotface	Hey, I've been thinking a lot about what you said earlier, about saving up and leaving this dump. Do you really think it's possible?
Player	I go places all the time. It's actually pretty easy to just pick up and leave.	Outcome: Leaving Freeside.
Rotface	That's true, you seem to always be on the move and it seems to be working out for you pretty well.
Rotface	I've already got a decent amount saved up. If I keep it up, there's no reason I shouldn't be able to go start over somewhere else soon.
Player	You wouldn't last ten seconds out in the waste.	Outcome: Mugging.
Rotface	That's a hell of a thing to say. Build up a man's hopes, then dash them in front of him.
Rotface	And who says I couldn't survive just as well as you out there? People are always underestimating me, damn.
Player	Sure, but what about this place? Isn't it your home?	Outcome: Followers.
Rotface	This place is a shithole, but yeah, it's home. I've lived here all my life. I'd be leaving a piece of myself behind if I left.
Rotface	There'd be things I'd miss - the fun of watching the Kings kick the crap out of a thief, or the look of joy on a child's face after catching a rat.
Rotface	Ah, now you've got me all nostalgic-like. Maybe I'd be better off trying to find a way to make this place better than giving up and leaving.

Outcome#

If he's planning on mugging you:

Speaker	Text	Note
Rotface	{Mugging sequence}Well, look who it is. I was just thinking about you.
Rotface	I recently came across a piece of info that you just have to hear, and since you're my best customer, it's on the house. Interested?
Player	No right now. I'm busy.	[sic]
Rotface	Well, don't wait too long. What I've got is something you'd need to act on, quick.
Rotface	{Mugging, after you turned him down the first time}Hey, I've still got that super-hot tip for you, and it's still free. What do you say?	Greeting if you opted to do it later
Player	Sure. What is it?
Rotface	I don't want to mention it out in plain sight like this. You never know who might be listening. Follow me.

At this point he would lead the player into an alley to rob them. Once there:

Speaker	Text	Note
Rotface	{Actual mugging}Okay, pal, we're going to do this quick and easy. I know you're loaded down with caps, judging by how much you've already given me.
Rotface	So I thought I'd save us both some time and just take all the caps you have. Hand them over.
Player	Why are you doing this?
Rotface	Man, I'm tired of scrounging for caps from ungrateful idiots like you. It's past time I moved on to bigger and better things.
Rotface	Now are you going to hand over your caps, or am I going to shoot you and take them anyway?
Player	Don't shoot! Here you go.
Rotface	Wow, I didn't think it would be this easy. I should have done this years ago. Guess I'll be going then.
Rotface	Oh, here's a final tip - don't ever follow anyone into a dark alley in Freeside. Later, chump.
Player	I'm not giving you my caps.	Provokes him into attacking
Rotface	Then you give me no choice.
Player	I have a better idea. Why don't I just take all my caps back from your corpse?	Provokes him into attacking
Rotface	You're welcome to try.

If he's leaving Freeside:

Speaker	Text	File
Rotface	{Leaving}Hey pal, I've finally saved up enough caps to leave this dump, so no tips today. Or ever, I guess, ha ha.
Rotface	A lot of these caps came from you, so I wanted to say thanks before I shove off. Meeting you really changed my life.

If he joined the Followers:

Speaker	Text	File
Rotface	{Him working for the Followers}Oh hey, didn't think I'd see you here. I decided to stop scrounging for caps and start making a difference.
Rotface	The Followers have been really great. There's always something that needs to be done, and everyone here treats me really well.
Rotface	Sorry if you stopped by my old spot looking for info. I've been so busy lately that I haven't heard anything.
Rotface	Anyway, feel free to stay as long as you like. I've got to get back to work.

Other#

Once 10, 20, or 30 tips are dispensed, Rotface is supposed to deliver this line:

Speaker	Text	File
Player	{ Holder for Rotface extra lines }
Rotface	Hey, listen, I'd love to sell you some more info, but you've tapped everything I've heard lately.
Rotface	Come back in a few days. I'll put my ear to the ground and hopefully have heard a few more things by then.

These are the alternatives to "Ah, my favorite customer returns. Want a tip?" the player would see if they were rude or polite to him on the second choice, respectively:

Speaker	Text	File
Rotface	You again. You want a tip, or you here to piss me off some more?
Rotface	Hey pal, you got the caps, I got the info. You do have the caps, right?

Siri#

Siri is a slave girl at The Fort. She would have been involved in the cut quest to poison the Legion's food supplies. Only the player's lines in this exchange remain.

Player	I'm not exactly a friend of the Legion, you know.
Player	I could probably find a use for some of this meat.

Tommy Torini#

Some lines where the player discusses Billy Knight's pay with Tommy Torini. This is never seen in game as it relies on the variable BillyRecruited to be set to 2, it is only ever set to 1 via normal means.

Player	I want to talk to you about how much you're paying Billy Knight.
Tommy	That comedian you mean? Yeah, he practically begged me to hire him. Didn't even haggle.	00120000_1

Vault 21 Securitron#

It seems that originally, if Sarah Weintraub were to die, she would get replaced by a generic Securitron that would offer the same basic services as Sarah. The Securitron is still placed in the Vault 21 gift shop, but permanently disabled.

Speaker	Text	File
Securitron	Greetings, citizen. Please, select your accommodation needs.
Player	What's a Securitron doing here?
Securitron	Vault 21's previous manager is no longer capable of servicing your needs. Hotel arrangement functions are now purview of Mr. House.
Player	Goodbye.
Securitron	Observe the rules, citizen.
Player	I need a room.
Securitron	Proceed to your accomodations. Please, enjoy your stay at Vault 21.
Player	I don't have enough for a room.
Securitron	Vault 21 hopes to service your needs in the future. Goodbye.
Player	I'm looking for an antique rangefinder somebody might've sold you.
Securitron	Predecessor's records indicate matching item purchased by nervous man wearing metal collar.
Securitron	Records indicate man requested free lodging and was directed to concrete building in Freeside. Transmitting coordinates.

The "I need a room.", "Goodbye.", and "I don't have enough for a room." topics also have duplicate empty topics.

Vault 22 Robots#

Bohr and Koch are two fully functioning robots, a Protectron and Sentry Bot respectively, designed for use in Vault 22. They may have been disabled (or in Bohr's case, removed) for atmosphere.

Bohr#

Speaker	Text	Note
Bohr	Greetings! I do not believe we have met before. I have the singular distinction of being designated as Bohr.
Player	Nice to meet you.
Bohr	A pleasure to meet you, sir. What may I do for you?
Bohr	A pleasure to meet you, madam. What may I do for you?
Player	Skip the introductions. Why are you here?
Bohr	My, how rude. If you must know, I am here to assist my master Keely in her research.
Player	Have you seen a ghoul named Keely around here?
Bohr	Why yes, the master was here some time ago. Do you have business with her?
Player	I don't have time to talk, sorry.
Bohr	Very well, I'll get back to computing these protein sequences, then. Farewell.
Player	Where is Keely now?
Bohr	I couldn't say, exactly. She went down to the lower levels some time ago and hasn't been back since. Do you suppose something has happened to her?
Player	Perhaps. I'll go down and look for her.
Bohr	Oh, thank you! The master can really be a bother sometimes, but she has a good heart.
Bohr	Now, I must get back to computing protein sequences. Please tell the master to hurry back if you see her.
Player	Why don't you go and look for her?
Bohr	I have been given explicit instructions to stay here until the master returns.
Player	What can you tell me about this place?
Bohr	Very little, I'm afraid. I've been stuck here calculating protein sequences for most of our sojourn here thus far.
Bohr	Master Keely has done most of the exploring. She might be able to tell you more.
Player	What are you doing here?
Bohr	I am assisting my master Keely with her research. We have been tasked with extracting as much of the research that was performed here as possible.
Bohr	Calculating	Greeting if you've spoken to him already

Koch#

Veronica#

Veronica has dialogue referencing a quest involving two NPCs named Abraham and Monte (at least one of them a ghoul) and an accelerator item. These are actually dialogue options used by Dead Money when installed, camouflaged to avoid spoiling the add-on content (Dead Money content was already planned at release).

Speaker	Text	File
Player	VDialogueVeronicaAbeSim1
Veronica	{Waiting for player to step out of simulator}What was on it? What did he say?
Player	Abraham wanted to say goodbye, and that he's gone North, into ghoul country.
Veronica	Oh god. He... {sighs}I guess he was lost a long time ago. Even at the end...
Veronica	Still... thanks for bringing word. At least, now I know.
Player	Abe explained what happened in the Crater, how it healed him.
Veronica	{Drifting, dismissive}Hmm. Unlikely. He was a little too focused on gears and diodes... tech was the cure-all.
Player	What did you expect a ghoul to say?
Veronica	{Sadly accepting}Yeah. Yeah. Thought as much. He'd been fading away for a long time.
Player	Here's the accelerator.
Veronica	Where did you get this?
Veronica	{Wary}Guess I was right about the bad news, huh? Same look Elder McNamara always gave me when I was up for promotion.
Player	I found the ghoul with the Accelerator you were looking for.
Veronica	{Surprise, player found someone she thought was dead}You did? Where? Oh my God, I mean... I thought... I don't even know what I thought might have happened to him.
Veronica	{Wary}But... you don't have a "this is good news" expression on your face.
Player	I had to kill Monte for it.
Veronica	You killed him? {Beat}But...
Player	I trapped Monte in a subway tunnel, that ghoul's not coming back.
Veronica	Trapped him? Where?

Vulpes Inculta#

These dialogue options should be available upon first meeting Vulpes in Nipton, however they rely on the player being unfamiliar with Vulpes... which they should be, but the "KnowVulpes" quest variable in the Nipton quest package is already set.

Speaker	Text	File
Player	Who are you?
Vulpes Inculta	I am {WUHL-pace In-CUL-tah}Vulpes Inculta, of {KAI-zar's}Caesar's Legion. I serve my master as the greatest of his {froo-men-TAR-ee}Frumentarii.
Vulpes Inculta	We Frumentarii are soldiers of a different stripe, capable in battle, but skilled as infiltrators and agents as well.
Player	Tell me about Caesar's Legion.
Vulpes Inculta	The Legion is civilization reborn. Our culture is based on virtues such as martial excellence, loyalty, and justice.
Vulpes Inculta	But you'll learn all there is to know in due time. {Le-GAH-tus La-nee-OOS}Legatus Lanius, Monster of the East, will soon arrive to command {KAI-zar's}Caesar's troops in battle.
Vulpes Inculta	The Dam will fall, and the rest of the Profligate west will soon follow.
Player	Your "civilization" sounds like a pack of snarling dogs.
Vulpes Inculta	{scoffing guffaw}Indeed, our hounds demonstrate greater loyalty to each other every day than the wretched inhabitants of this town.
Player	What "lessons" did you teach here?
Vulpes Inculta	Where to begin? That you are weak, and we are strong? This much was known already.
Vulpes Inculta	But the depths of your moral sickness, your {a beat}dissolution? Nipton serves as the perfect object lesson.
Player	Sounds like they got what was coming to them.
Vulpes Inculta	Yes, they did. As will all the rest of you, in due time.
Vulpes Inculta	Now go, and teach what you've learned here. There will be more lessons in the days ahead.
Player	I admire the purity of the Legion's justice.
Vulpes Inculta	You're unusually bright for a Profligate. Well done.
Vulpes Inculta	Now go, and teach what you've learned here. There will be more lessons in the days ahead.

Wasteland Adventurer#

Wasteland Adventurer is an unused scripted encounter meant to appear on the road right outside of Goodsprings. See unused NPCs.

Speaker	Text	Note
Wasteland Adventurer	Peace, traveler.	Greeting
Wasteland Adventurer	You again? What'cha need, champ?	Second greeting
Wasteland Adventurer	Unless you wanna slap leather with me you'll put that gun down, friend.	Greeting when player's weapon is drawn. This response lacks a voice file.
Player	Who are you?
Wasteland Adventurer	Just a hunter, out here killing things and hoping their hides fetch more than the bullets cost to kill 'em.
Player	Which way to Primm?
Wasteland Adventurer	Sign says you go south... just look for the rollercoaster. Oh and don't go north, a caravan just got sacked up the road.	This option places a map marker for Primm
Player	What if I go around the caravan?
Wasteland Adventurer	It just gets worse the further north you go... Deathclaws... death in general. But it's your ass, I suppose.
Player	Do you have anything to trade?
Wasteland Adventurer	That's a dangerous question... asked the way a bandit might ask... but since we're close to town I'll trust your good intentions.
Player	Let's trade.
Wasteland Adventurer	I could use some Stimpaks... how 'bout some nice Bloatfly Steaks in trade?
Player	Goodbye.
Wasteland Adventurer	Watch your back out there.
Wasteland Adventurer	Whatever.	There is a commented out script for Wasteland Adventurer to flip you off with this goodbye
Wasteland Adventurer	Keep your guns loaded and ready.

Westside Thug#

Thugs that were meant to approach the player after they got information from Hector during the quest "The White Wash".

Speaker	Text	File
Westside Thug	Hassling Hector, huh? Got a thing for little kids?
Player	Goodbye.
Westside Thug	Oh, no you don't. Time to teach you to mess with our people!
Player	What do you guys want?
Westside Thug	We saw you follow the kid in there. Figured we'd teach you a lesson.
Player	Look, all I did was talk to him. It's no big deal.
Westside Thug	[FAILED] Right. No big deal. We're going to beat the hell out of you now, but don't worry - we don't think it's a big deal, either.
Player	All right, let's get this over with. I've got better things to do.
Westside Thug	It'll be hard for you to do anything once we break your arms and legs.
Player	I'd hate to kill you over a misunderstanding, but if that's what you want...
Westside Thug	[SUCCEEDED] No, no, it's all right. We're just looking out for our own, you understand. We're, uh, sorry to bother you.

Wrench#

See unused NPCs.

Player	I've got the whiskey.

Yes Man at El Dorado#

Yes Man	Hi there! Come with me!
Yes Man	Just to the top of the ridge up here...
Yes Man	See that? Vegas, right? Same as always - but not tonight!
Yes Man	5... 4... 3... 2... 1!
Yes Man	Pretty nice, huh? But that's not all!
Yes Man	Now that the Lucky 38's reactor is fired up, Vegas doesn't need the dam to have power! Vegas is energy-independent! Whoo-hoo!
Yes Man	If we keep the dam running, we can sell {emph}all its electricity to the NCR for a nice profit. Vegas doesn't need it!
Yes Man	Hope to see you soon!
