| - {Angry} That's stealing!
- {Distracted} But someone's got to do it. If you'll excuse me.
- {Too polite} And you have manners, too. That makes you doubly welcome here. Unfortunately, I got a town to run.
- {Friendly, proud} I make sure Penny, Talia, and everyone's got what they need. It's a full time job to keep our little community afloat.
- {Relieved, genuinely friendly} Doctor Chambers filled me in on your... arrangement.
- {Reassuring} I figure the same thing we did last time. Charge up the turrets and let Swanson deal with them.
- {Smooth recovery to politician's safe answer} Hard work, shrewd trading, and a commitment to make a healthy community. It's a team effort.
- {Coy / Conspiratorial} Supposing, hypothetically, we are.
- {Admits they could fail / Somber} I... I don't know if the SAFE test will ever be perfect, but if there's a chance to tell who the real people are, the wholesome people...
- {Conviction} Covenant's main goal is to improve our synth detection test. But it's equally important to help heal the casualties of this phantom war.
- {Being earnest / Somber} Please, just leave well enough alone. There's more going on then you realize.
- {Neutral} I'll send word to the Compound. They'll be expecting you.
- {Sincere, some personal pain in here / Relieved} I can't tell you how relieved we are. Everyone in Covenant has suffered dearly at the Institute's plan.
- {Angry, will lead to violence} Our bunk house is off limits!
- {Underplaying, clear this is a sensitive subject he's trying to bury / Conspiratorial} You might want to stay clear of Mr. Dan. I've had some complaints about him.
- {Emphasize "dealt" - he's talking about something secret, but talking in code in case he's overheard} If it comes to that, the raiders will be dealt with. I guarantee that.
- {Politician mode - concealing something} We all knew it was going to be tough to make something out of nothing. But remember what Covenant is about. It's worth it.
- Closing the office.
- {Conviction - repressed anger / Somber} The synth menace has touched nearly every family in the whole Commonwealth.
- {Truly friendly} Doctor Chambers had good things to say about you.
- {Said with a wink and a nod} Penny's got some extra special deals for you.
- {Politician making a smooth joke} If you ask me, I think Dan's been baking in the sun too long. The only secret we got here is what's in Deezer's lemonade.
- {Conviction} We all believe in the mission but outsiders may not clearly see the sacrifices that are necessary to protect the Commonwealth.
- I hope you understand.
- I need to lock up in here.
- {Sincere} And then you'd be welcome back here as our friend any time.
- One more thing...
- Well, hello.
- {Salesman} Our community's small but we got one of the best shops in the whole Commonwealth. And real beds, too.
- {Considering, keeping up the facade, though / Thinking} That's a tall order. A deal like that, well, that's above my pay grade.
- {A hint of emphasis} Mind what I said about Mr. Dan. He's not the best influence.
- {Politician negotiating} Tell you what, you just stop this investigation and I'll give you a gift. 100 caps.
- {The question almost breaks his politician's mask - undercurrents here of deep feelings / Irritated} Shouldn't everyone have a problem with synths? But there's none of those... things here. Rest assured.
- {Politician's line - but clear he really believes it / Conspiratorial} We wouldn't do anything unless we had good reasons. The best.
- {Trying to be sly and subtle - it should be obvious he's talking about something shady} If we need more energy cells, they will be provided.
- {Doesn't mean it} You have a good day.
- {Friendly} Actually, I was wanting to help you.
- {Friendly} Ask away.
- {Friendly} I hope you're enjoying your stay.
- {Friendly} Just being a good host.
- {Friendly} Stay as long as you like.
- {Friendly} Talk to you later.
- {Friendly} Well hello, stranger.
- {Friendly} You have a good stay now.
- {Politician} For people like you, any time.
- {Worried} Just stay clear of the Compound. Please.
- {Politician's veiled ultimatum - a touch of sorrow / Conspiratorial} I know you think you're doing the right thing. Just don't make any rash decisions you'll regret.
- {Utter conviction / Defiant} Well, we have to take it.
- {Coy} Maybe your next destination doesn't appreciate trespassers.
- {Politician} The name's Jacob and I run this town. Glad you passed the test, our door's always open to good quality people.
- {Not offended} Why yes, sorry. Didn't mean to keep you waiting.
- {Veiled threat, clear he doesn't want to hurt the player / Sad} Please, stranger, just stay clear of the Compound.
- {Amused at Deezer} We also have a workbench - ask Talia, she'll set you up. Oh, and have you tried Deezer's lemonade? As he says, it's dee-licious.
- {Politician denial - maybe his facade cracks a little on "many times" and reveals anger / Irritated} Is this about those Stockton people? I've told Mr. Dan many, many times - we never saw them.
- {Politician - friendly} To compete with Diamond City and Bunker Hill we offer something they don't: comfort and civility.
- {Conviction} All we need is time and we'll get that SAFE test purring.
- If you need me or Mr. Fitzgerald, try back again tomorrow.
- {Coy / Conspiratorial} Maybe you heard a rumor about Stockton's caravan and a certain Compound? So hypothetically, let's say there's something to that.
- {Politician - unclear if this is a trap} Tell you what. I'll let the Compound know you're coming. Then you can make your case to them. Good luck.
- Stay here a spell and you be the judge if it's working.
- {Politician's denial - could be lying} Why that sounds interesting, stranger. But I can't say I've ever heard of a... Compound, was it?
- {Friendly} Doc Patricia will be more than happy to patch you up. For a modest fee, of course.
- {Not offended} It's not like that. Just trying to help you out.
- {True friend} So if you want to use the workshop and help contribute to our community you're more than welcome.
- {Friendly} It's good to see a new face around here.
- {Friendly} We all consider you a part of the family now.
- He's a gun-for-hire. Not the most savory line of work, if you ask me.
- {Proud} We'd be honored to fly the Minuteman flag and contribute further to the safety and welfare of the Commonwealth.
- You can use one of the beds in the guest house. And you should visit Penny's store.
- {Slightly annoyed, a touch of a threat} If only that were true. Use your best judgment, friend.
- {Hard sell on the player} It isn't as simple as all that. Hasn't our community been good to you? And others passing through?
- {Politician - edge to it} Heya, stranger. It's no secret you've been poking around. Not very neighborly of you, if you ask me.
- {Relief! / Friendly} Here you go. Come back anytime.
- {Sardonic} And if you can get Deezer to tell you, you just got to fill me in. As the robot says, "It's dee-licious."
- {Earnest, managing to sound sincere} So all I'm asking is you have a little faith in us.
- {genuine sympathy, pain} All of us have lost people to the Institute... Poor Ted Huntley lost his entire family when a Courser retrieved a synth.
