100 You see a wizened old man wearing a doctor�s coat. |
101 You see Doc Holliday. |
102 You see a wizened old man in a slightly bloody doctor�s coat. The man radiates an air of knowledge. He also seems slightly sickly. |
103 ::wheeze:: Hi there. I�m Doc Holliday. How can I help you? |
104 Now what do you want? |
105 Ouchie! |
106 I�m hurt and need healing. |
107 One of my friends is hurt and needs healing. |
108 What do you do here? |
109 Tell me about the town. |
110 Any gossip? |
111 Just sell me some stimpacks. |
112 Forget it. Sorry. |
113 Let me take a look at that. I can heal you, but it�ll cost. |
114 How much? |
115 Forget it. |
116 Yes, I can heal this� ::wheeze:: for a price. |
117 How much? |
118 Forget it. |
119 What do I do here? You�re in a hospital. I�m wearing a doctor�s coat. I�m covered with blood. There are sharp, pointy things lying all around. Either I�m a successful killer or a fair doctor. Take your pick. |
120 I guess I can call you a doctor. |
121 Don�t get smart with me, old man. |
122 A really good doctor wouldn�t be getting blood all over himself. |
123 Let�s see. I was born here years ago. Place was just getting started. I picked up when I was a teen and tooled around the place for a while. Met a woman. Fell in love. She died of sickness. I decided then that I was going to become a doctor. |
124 Yeah? Go on. |
125 We were talking about Broken Hills, not your history. |
126 You�d be surprised what people say when they�re in pain. |
127 Oh yeah? Like what? |
128 I changed my mind. I�d rather ask other questions. |
129 That�ll cost you $50. |
130 I�ll pay. |
131 Forget it. |
132 For wounds like that, you�ll be losing $100. |
133 I�ll pay. |
134 Forget it. |
135 That looks like it must have hurt. Going to hurt your wallet, too... $150. |
136 I�ll pay. |
137 Forget it. |
138 Ouch! You�re going to need some serious patching. $200. |
139 I�ll pay. |
140 Forget it. |
141 Whew� friend, this is going to hurt you a lot. $300 and you�re good as new. |
142 I�ll pay. |
143 Forget it. |
144 He should be okay after a little help from me� ::wheeze:: to the tune of $50. |
145 I�ll pay. |
146 Forget it. |
147 You been seeing some action? I remember back when I was a little spitfire. Got plenty of holes in me, too. This misadventure will cost you $100. |
148 I�ll pay. |
149 Forget it. |
150 Kid, do you take care of your friends? ::cough:: If you�re going to take care of this friend, you�ll need to pay $150. |
151 I�ll pay. |
152 Forget it. |
153 You must be pretty good to inspire loyalty like this from your friends. I hope you�re good... because this is going to cost ::cough:: $200. |
154 I�ll pay. |
155 Forget it. |
156 Ouch! I�ll need to put a cast on that or something. For my extensive medical knowledge, you�ll be parting with $300. |
157 I�ll pay. |
158 Forget it. |
159 Friend, you don�t have that kind of money. I can sell you some stimpacks if you like, but with the healing you�re looking for, you can�t afford what I can afford to give you. |
160 Give me the stimpacks. |
161 No thanks. |
162 It�s been a pleasure. |
163 Thanks. |
164 That�s not acceptable. |
165 How about this? |
166 It�s all I want to offer. So long. |
167 ::wheeze:: Are you hurt? Let me take a look at that. Do you have money? |
168 Mo-ney? |
169 �Es! |
170 Let me take a look at your bag. (he looks through your bag and takes something) Okay. Now, this may hurt a little bit. |
171 Hurt? |
172 Yes. Now� There! We�re done. Good luck to you, okay? Don�t get hurt! |
173 Tanks! |
174 That�s right. I�m a doctor. Good to see that intelligence is alive and well in the post-nuclear world. |
175 Ha! And it�s kicking around inside the body of a 70-year-old man! |
176 I don�t want to be taking shit from you, old man. |
177 Ummm.. Yeah. I had more questions. |
178 Bye. |
179 Threaten the only doctor in town. Good thinking. ::cough:: Friend, if you want something, you can ask politely. Otherwise, get the hell out of my hospital. |
180 Bite me, old man. Get ready to die. |
181 Yeah. Whatever. |
182 Sorry. Bad day. |
183 I was just kidding around. |
184 Stripling, you have a lot to learn about respect. |
185 Child, you have a lot to learn about humor. |
186 Yeah, all right. |
187 Okay, you�ve pissed me off. Now you�re going to need to heal yourself. |
188 (You can see a glint of laughter in his eyes behind his glasses.) Don�t see it too many other places these days. The young of the world, for example� |
189 Hey! |
190 Old man, don�t push me. |
191 ...are the repository of what our elders once knew... |
192 Yeah, yeah, yeah� I gotta go. |
193 Relax, kid. Just joking around with you. |
194 Yeah, I know. So� ummm� |
195 � and what we refuse to tell you little bastards! (he bursts out laughing) Kid, the next time you need to see me for some medical help, it�s on the house. |
196 I had some other questions. |
197 Thanks. I�ll see you around. |
198 You�re hurt? Let me fix that. |
199 Umm� |
200 Thanks. See ya! |
201 Who�s hurt? Oh, just line up and I'll take care of the lot of ya. |
202 One more thing� |
203 Thanks! Bye! |
204 Surprisingly little. Sorry, but when I�m concentrating on healing someone, I don�t usually pay attention to their innermost secrets. |
205 Oh. Will you answer more questions? |
206 So then I traveled to San Francisco and studied under the Chinese there� an old gentleman by the name of Mr. Fung taught me everything I know about medicine. He also taught me some wisdom. |
207 So then what happened? |
208 And this ties into Broken Hills how? |
209 I�m getting to that! Kids these days� so impatient. |
210 Sorry. Go on. |
211 This sucks. I�m outta here. |
212 Then, I came back here and watched Marcus build the town from the shanties I remember from my youth into the "sprawling metropolis" you see before you. I saw people attracted by promises of wealth. I saw people grow up and die. I saw the currents of history. |
213 So that means� |
214 That means that I don�t know most of the new people these days. Most of my memories are just that -- memories. |
215 Oh. Well, thanks for the story. |
216 You jerk! You made me wait that long for nothing? |
217 No, thank you for listening to me ramble. Next time you�re here and need healing, it�s on the house. |
218 Thanks! So anyway� |
219 Thanks. So long! |
220 Yeah. Hope it was worth it! (he cackles) |
221 No. Not really. Tell me something else. |
222 No. You shriveled old jerk. Bye. |
300 Who would you like me to heal? |
301 Vic. |
302 Myron. |
303 Marcus. |
304 MacRae. |
305 Sulik. |
306 Lenny. |
307 Cyberdog. |
308 Doc. |
309 Goris. |
310 Davin. |
311 Miria. |
312 Robobrain. |
313 Nevermind. |
314 You�re hurt? Let me fix that. I'll take care of your companions too. |
315 There ya' go. All better. |
