Aiden:"Hey, has someone hurt you?" Brigitte:"My son. I gave my whole life to him. And in my golden years, how does he repay me? By making life hell... in my own home! I couldn't take it anymore, so I left." Aiden:"Where will you go?" Brigitte:"I heard about an abandoned container nearby. It used to belong to the Peacekeepers, but now it's empty. Well, it was empty. When I went to see it, infected were all over the place." Aiden:"What say I get rid of the infected for you?" Brigitte:"Would you do that? I will pay you." Aiden:"Sure thing. Where can I find you afterwards?" Brigitte:"I'll go to the Canteen. Any place is better than my hellhole of a home and my demon son."
(At the Fish Eye Canteen after clearing the container) Brigitte:"It's all your fault." Karsten:"But Mom...!" Brigitte:"See what your mother has to endure at her ripe old age." Karsten:"Stop being so melodramatic--" Brigitte:"Are you not ashamed?" Karsten:"Mom, listen to me." Brigitte:"I'm going to die lonely and forgotten."
(Upon talking to Brigitte) Karsten:"Mom, come home. I'm so worried about you." Brigitte:"Is that stray you took in still there?" Karsten:"Please don't talk like that about my future wife. Her name is Sylvia." Brigitte:"You've known her for a week and you're calling her your "wife"? What do you even know about her?" Karsten:"I love her." Brigitte:"More than your own mother? I must have been a terrible mother. You see? This nice young man promised to get me a container where I can live out my days alone." Karsten:"But Mom..." Brigitte:"Quiet! Now. How did it go... my hero?" Aiden:"You can move in." Brigitte:"Here, is your well-earned payment. I could have left it to my son, but he deserves nothing!" Karsten:"Please talk some sense to her, because I don't have the strength anymore."
Aiden:"(Mother comes first.) Mother comes first."
Karsten:"You don't know what you're talking about."
Brigitte:"But he's right! Who loves you more than anyone in the world? And who will always take care of you?"
Karsten:"Fine. I'll pack Sylvia's things and tell her to leave."
Brigitte:"Finally. Well, it's about time you came around. Thank you. I have no idea what I would do if it weren't for your help."
Aiden:"(Children have to go their own way someday.) Children have to go their own way someday."
Karsten:"Did you hear, mom? If you want to leave because of Sylvia, then... I won't be stopping you."
Brigitte:"And you had such a kind look in your eyes..."
Aiden:"Will she be all right?"
Karsten:"I'll look after her somehow. After all, she's my mother. Thanks for helping her."
Aiden:"Don't mention it. Good luck on your new path in life."
