(If a Survivor)
Aiden: "Ruud? I need to talk to you."
Ruud: "It's you, that pilgrim! People said all sorts of things about you at first, but after what you did... tell me: how do you like it here at the Bazaar?"
Aiden: "I'm slowly getting used to it..."
Ruud: "You can do a lot here, as long as you keep the right company. I know everyone here."
Aiden: "Scott Gunter, know him?"
Ruud: "Too well, unfortunately."
Aiden: "I'm looking for him, for Nerys. Did you know that he didn't come home last night?"
Ruud: "If Nerys had raised him properly, maybe he would have."
Aiden: "If you don't want to help him, then at least help me."
Ruud: "Fine, I'll help you. What do you want to know?"
- Aiden: "(Does your daughter know anything?)"
- Aiden: "(Who were those men talking to you about Scott?) Some men came looking for Scott yesterday. and from what I hear, you talked to them."
- Ruud: "Yeah, they were recruiters or something."
- Aiden: "Recruiters? What do you mean?"
- Ruud: "They were looking for able-bodied young men so I referred them to Scott."
- Aiden: "I want to talk to Loes."
- Ruud: "We owe you for the water... but dammit... I don't want you bothering my daughter."
- Aiden: "What if something has happened to Scott?"
- Ruud: "No, out of the question. Go away before--"
- Loes: "You guys talking about Scottie? What's wrong? Has something happened to him?"
- Aiden: "He's gone missing. When did you last see him?"
- Loes: "Yesterday afternoon. Said he was going to "prove himself.""
- Ruud: "Prove himself?"
- Loes: "He can be a romantic."
- Ruud: "Romantic? I love you Loes but you gotta stop falling for that moron's shit."
- Aiden: "(What was Scott's mission?)"
- Aiden: "(Scott might be in serious trouble.) Scott might be in serious trouble."
- Loes: "Oh my God..."
- Ruud: "Calm down, Loes. I'm sure he'll turn up."
- Aiden: "Did Scott say where he was going?"
- Loes: "Let's see... he did mention Crocodile Flats. It's a neighborhood west of Houndfield. Said he knew of some "treasure" there in an abandoned building. Please... you gotta find him!"
- Aiden: "I'll do my best."
(If a Peacekeeper)
Aiden: "You're Ruud? We have to talk."
Ruud: "Talk to you? About what?"
Aiden: "About Scott Gunter. He didn't come home last night."
Ruud: "And what of it? So you suddenly care about what happens to us Bazaar folk? I thought you were a lowdown bandit like every pilgrim... but you're even worse! You're a PK dog!"
Aiden: "I just want to help. For Nerys's sake."
Ruud: "Help you? The water thief?"
Aiden: "Dammit, Ruud! A kid's life could be at stake!"
Ruud: "Fine. What do you want to know?"
- Aiden: "(Does your daughter know anything?)"
- Aiden: "(Who were those men talking to you about Scott?) Some men came looking for Scott yesterday. and from what I hear, you talked to them."
- Ruud: "Yeah, they were recruiters or something."
- Aiden: "Recruiters? What do you mean?"
- Ruud: "They were looking for able-bodied young men so I referred them to Scott."
- Aiden: "I want to talk to Loes."
- Ruud: "Get lost, Pilgrim, I won't let you bother my daughter."
- Aiden: "What if something has happened to Scott?"
- Ruud: "No, out of the question. Go away before--"
- Loes: "You guys talking about Scottie? What's wrong? Has something happened to him?"
- Aiden: "He's gone missing."
- Loes: "It's you! You took our water from us!"
- Aiden: "Listen, this is important. When did you last see him."
- Loes: "Yesterday afternoon. He was going on about some "mission." Said he was going to "prove himself.""
- Ruud: "Prove himself?"
- Loes: "He can be a romantic."
- Ruud: "Romantic? I love you Loes but you gotta stop falling for that moron's shit."
- Aiden: "(Scott might be in serious trouble.)"
- Aiden: "(What was Scott's mission?) So, what was this mission?"
- Ruud: "Nerys sent him, not the Peacekeepers. You can talk to him."
- Loes: "I really don't know. He just said... that it would help us be together."
- Aiden: "You know where he was headed to "prove himself?""
- Loes: "Let's see... he did mention Crocodile Flats. It's a neighborhood west of Houndfield."
- Ruud: "That place used to be teeming with junkies looking for a fix of Crocodile, a synthetic drug coming from Russia."
- Loes: "Scott said he knew of some "treasure" there in an abandoned building, on Queen Harriet Crescent, I think. Something that would help us be together. You gotta find him!"
- Aiden: "That's exactly what I intend to do."
(Regardless of allegiance, after the conversation is over)
Loes: "Dad? What's happening? Did you know about this?"
Ruud: "Just go back home. I already told you everything. For real."
Loes: "I got a bad feeling about this... Something's not right, but I can't help you."
(After sending Scott home without retrieving the necklace)
Loes: "Where's Scott? Have you found him?"
Aiden: "He's at home with his mother, safe. Scott survived your mission, Ruud. You must be disappointed."
Loes: "What is he talking about?"
Ruud: "Loes... you know I love you, don't you? I only want what's best for you!"
Loes: "What did you do, dad?"
Ruud: "Listen, honey. You know Scott's no good for you. Thought this would knock some sense into the boy, and he'd give up--"
Loes: "Give up on what? Or who?? ME?!"
- Aiden: "(Ruud sent Scott on a suicide mission.)"
- Aiden: "(It would be best if Loes heard the truth from you.) Tell her. It would be best if she heard the truth from you."
- Ruud: "Stay out of this."
- Aiden: "I'm not joking, Ruud. This is your last chance."
- Ruud: "Fine! Alright! I'll tell her! I tried to get rid of Scott. For good. I'm sorry."
- Loes: "You did what?! I know you didn't like Scott but... How could you?! That's it! I'm done with you, father!"
- Ruud: "Well... I hope you're happy."
- Aiden: "You admitted your mistake, that's something."
- Ruud: "Damn you to hell, pilgrim."
(After sending Scott home without retrieving the necklace)
Scott: "Why can't she stay with us?"
Nerys: "I've got enough mouths to feed."
Scott: "Aiden! You're here. You're the hero. Be the hero. Help us!"
- Aiden: "(Not my place to interfere.) You're not gonna like this Scott but I've gotten too deep into this already. You're safe. The rest is a family matter. Not my place to interfere."
- Loes: "Why did I even come here? What was I hoping for?"
- Scott: "No, Loes! Wait!"
- Nerys: "Well, hopefully, that's the end of that."
- Aiden: "Do you think they'll be okay?"
- Nerys: "Scott will be fine. As for Loes, let her monster of a father worry about that. I'm just glad my boy is safe, thanks to you. Here."
(After sending Scott home while retrieving the necklace)
Nerys: "Aiden. Thank you, thank you for getting Scott home safely."
Aiden: "Can I talk to him?"
Nerys: "Sure, of course. Scott!"
Scott: "Aiden! You made it! Do you have... the necklace I gave you?"
Loes: "What? What are you talking about, Scott?"
- Aiden: "(Tell Loes her father set Scott up.) Sorry Scot but... Loes, your father sent Scott for his aunt's necklace, sending him into grave danger. There's no way Scott could have done this on his own, but because of his love for you, he tried his best!"
- Scott: "Hey wait a minute! I could have--"
- Aiden: "Scott had vowed to do what it takes to win over your father, so he could be with you. To make sure this wouldn't happen, your father also sent two thugs after Scott."
- Ruud: "You piece of shit! I shoulda turned you over to them while I was at it."
- Loes: "Dad! Is Aiden telling the truth? Did you...?"
- Ruud: "He's no good for you, honey. You see that, right? Look, I'm just trying to do what's best for you, Loes. Believe me!"
- Loes: "I--I'm so ashamed. I know you didn't like Scott but... How could you?! That's it. I'm done with you, father. Miss Gunter, please, may I stay here with you?"
- Ruud: "That's nonsense, Loes. Come on. We're going home. Now!"
- Scott: "Touch her and I will kill you. I swear, I will kill you."
- Ruud: "Yeah? Let's see you try."
- Nerys: "Enough, Ruud. Leave or I'll call the guard. And I'll go to Carl with this, I swear. What you tried to do to my son! You disgust me, you monster."
- Scott: "Mom, does this mean you'll let Loes stay with us?"
- Nerys: "Scott... You know I've got enough mouths to feed."
- Aiden: "(Stay out of it.)"
- Scott: "But mom... please! We can think of something."
- Loes: "Why did I even come here?"
- Scott: "No, Loes! Wait! There must be a way..."
- Nerys: "You're a rare breed, Aiden."
- Aiden: "Do you think they'll be fine?"
- Nerys: "Scott will be fine. As for Loes, I feel sorry for her, but she's her father's responsibility. I'm just glad my boy is safe. You know, pilgrim... people here say horrible things about you. But they have no idea what you are really like."
- Aiden: "See you later, Nerys. Look after your son."
- Aiden: "(Use necklace to convince Nerys.) Maybe this necklace will help. Probably worth a small fortune. Think of it as a dowry."
- Nerys: "Well... This does change things."
- Scott: "Aiden. Looks like I owe you another one. Big time."
- Aiden: "Put it on the tab. I'm just glad it all worked out."
- Loes: "I don't know how to thank you."
- Nerys: "Okay, save the waterworks. Both of you, inside, before I change my mind. So... you returned my son to me. And threw in a bonus daughter-in-law. Don't expect a bonus reward for that."
- Aiden: "You've also got a new enemy."
- Nerys: "Nothing new about that, trust me. And you know, this could have ended in far worse ways."
- Aiden: "(Give necklace to Scott pretending he got it.) Yes, here's... ... the necklace you got from that apartment. I looked into it, like you asked. You were right. It's worth quite a lot."
- Scott: "See? Ruud! I got the necklace! Now you have to give me Loes."
- Ruud: "No... this can't be. How did you...?"
- Scott: "I did what you asked. Loes belongs to me now."
- Loes: """Belongs"? I what now?"
- Scott: "We can finally be together."
- Loes: "Wait, you nearly got yourself killed, scaring your mother and me half to death, just to win me like a carnival prize from my father?! So I can "belong" to you?"
- Scott: "No, this was all for you. Really, you should have seen me out there."
- Aiden: "It's true. He was brave... heroic even."
- Loes: "I just... I mean... I don't even recognize you anymore."
- Scott: "Loes! Wait... Loes! This was for you. All for you!"
- Ruud: "Just tell your boy to keep away from my daughter."
- Nerys: "With pleasure. Well, drama aside, at least Scott made it home in one piece, thanks to you. Take this."
- Aiden: "Do you think they'll be okay?"
- Nerys: "Scott and Loes? Who knows... I love my boy but you know... he's a bit of a handful... and at that age...!"
