This is a listing of every "entry" in a given game conversation as scraped from the game files. Entries often contain written dialogue, as well as conditional logic governing their appearance to the player. They also link to other entries, sometimes automatically and sometimes through player action. This page is best used to search for a specific word or phrase, as following the links in this format can be difficult. For an experience that better accommodates the branching structure of these conversations, see the corresponding interactive page.

5 | Drama | Sire, it would be an event most dramatic if you were to produce the bullet and dangle it before their very eyes! |
|
|
6 | Titus Hardie | He gives you an indulgent look. "Well there are so many bullets in the world and so many heads..." |
|

|
|
18 | Rhetoric | It would take an army to bend Titus to its will, but having Evrart back you up like that... did seem to have *some* effect. |

35 | Kim Kitsuragi | "Indeed. *Mighty*. How did it get there?" The lieutenant is fixed on Titus. |
|

36 | Titus Hardie | He sighs deeply. "I guess it's only logical -- at some point one of them bullets had to end up in one of them heads..." |

215 | Eugene | "Yeah, there's always gonna be little sprouts. People find a way to make coin. But that's the little picture... Hardie boys are taking care of the big picture!" |
|
|
216 | Titus Hardie | "No, there aren't. Some little shit and his dad are doing speed. Boo-fucking-hoo. The stuff's probably from Jamrock." |
|
|
217 | Eugene | "Whatever you've seen is peanuts. Look at the big picture, man. The place is a paradise -- and all thanks to Hardie boys!" |
|
|
218 | You | "This is disgusting. You're admitting to profiting off of poisoning your own people." |
|
|
219 | Rhetoric | Yes, but that just sends everyone else to Jamrock, doesn't it? |
|

220 | You | "You've just diverted the flow to Jamrock. You've made it *our* problem." | Variable["whirling.hardies_rhetoric_drug_flow_to_jamrock"] |

221 | Titus Hardie | "We haven't *done* anything. But theoretically, it has to be someone's problem. So it might as well be yours." He takes a sip of his beer and smiles. |
|
|
222 | Elizabeth | "Titus, I'm amazed. Where is the same professionalism when it comes to *other* topics? You're doing great. I hardly have to interfere at all." |
|
|
223 | Titus Hardie | "I don't know, Lizzie. I guess *theoretical* things don't make me emotional." He turns to you. "Now was there anything else? I was sorta going to get my brewskie on." |
|
|
224 | Titus Hardie | "Thank you. Theoretically, of course. Thank you -- *theoretically*." He takes a sip of his beer and smiles. |

229 | Suggestion | He seems genuinely surprised at your response. In a good way. |

230 | Eugene | "Yeah, that's what the labour movement is *all* about. Clean and organized. And the Hardie boys are runnin' it." |

231 | Titus Hardie | "Theoretically, of course. We're just talking politics here. My answer to your drug accusation is: *How dare you? Go fuck yourself!*" |
|
|
232 | Kim Kitsuragi | "Not quite yet, Mr. Hardie. There were eight sets of prints on the crime scene. There are only seven Hardie boys here." |

233 | Elizabeth | "Aaaand here we go. Back to the usual." The woman sighs. |

234 | Shanky | "I know, I know!" The little man raises his index finger excitedly. "Fattie walked on all fours. He's so fucking fat he left two sets of footprints." |

235 | Elizabeth | "That's more like it, boys." She turns to you. "You heard him, it was Angus on all fours. Anything else you need to know?" |
