Dialogue for the Professor, a scientist in Broken Hills. {100}{}{You see a bemused man in a lab coat.} {101}{}{You see the Professor. He looks like he's engaged in some madcap scheme.} {102}{}{You see a bemused man in a lab coat surrounded by laboratory equipment. There's an insane gleam in his eye.} {103}{}{You again?} {104}{}{What is it you want? Out with it! I'm a busy man!} {105}{}{Noo beezy?} {106}{}{Test!} {107}{}{Who are you? And what's with the scorpion?} {108}{}{I'd like to take one of your tests.} {109}{}{Nothing. Bye.} {110}{}{Ah, a test subject! Would you like to take a test, my friend?} {111}{}{Yes!} {112}{}{No!} {113}{}{You wish to take a test, eh? Do you want to test your hands, your eyes, or your brains?} {114}{}{'Ands!} {115}{}{Yeyes!} {116}{}{Rains!} {117}{}{None!} {118}{}{Then why are you wasting my time? I told you I'm busy, didn't I? I have too much to do to stand around wasting time talking to people like ... why am I still talking to you? Good day!} {119}{}{Byeeeeee!} {120}{}{Err... yeah. Bye.} {121}{}{You wish to take a test, eh? Do you want to test your manual dexterity, your perception, or your intelligence?} {122}{}{I'd like to test my agility.} {123}{}{Let's test my eyes.} {124}{}{How about my smarts?} {125}{}{Hmm. None of them. Forget it.} {126}{}{Very well. I'll be matching you against the scorpion. You will both attempt to unlock those boxes. Good luck.} {127}{}{Go!} {128}{}{Let's do it.} {129}{}{Right. You'll stand behind this rail, and you and the scorpion will tell me the letters you read, from top to bottom, left to right.} {130}{}{Go!} {131}{}{Got it. Let's go.} {132}{}{You and the scorpion will be playing a game of my own devising. I call it "chess". Are you ready?} {133}{}{'Es!} {134}{}{Yep. I'm ready.} {135}{}{I am the Professor. What I do is applied intelligence testing. I create chemical compounds to increase intelligence. I'm trying some out on this radscorpion here, after my failure with Seymour.} {136}{}{You tried it out on a plant?} {137}{}{I'd like to take a test.} {138}{}{Have you made anything that works?} {139}{}{I see. That's all I wanted to know. Bye.} {140}{}{Of course I tried it out on a plant! I'm trying to increase intelligence from the ground up!} {141}{}{I see. Have you made anything that works?} {142}{}{I'd like to take a test.} {143}{}{That's all I wanted to know.} {144}{}{Yes, I have, thank you very much! You ever hear of "Mentats"? I helped develop a method for easy mass-production of that drug! And others! Lots of others!} {145}{}{All right, all right. Say, I'd like to try out my skills against your scorpion.} {146}{}{All right, I believe you. I'll just be leaving.} {147}{}{How... how could you kill my scorpion like that? I was close... so close...} {148}{}{Shamble off} {200}{}{Woo hoo! Beat THAT, Mr. Exoskeleton.} {201}{}{Wooooooo Hoooo!} {202}{}{Damn it!} {203}{}{Aaaargh!} {204}{}{::click clack::} {205}{}{How the hell did you pick a lock with CLAWS?} {206}{}{How U pik wiff CLAWS?} {207}{}{::chitter::} {208}{}{Well, that was a tie.} {209}{}{You lose. Scorpion: } {210}{}{, } {211}{}{: } {212}{}{.} {213}{}{Errr?} {214}{}{You have proven that you are just as agile as the radscorpion.} {215}{}{Here, take these Mentats. You appear to need them.} {300}{}{E...Z...W...T...O...D...F...E..R...T...F...P...Y...J...M} {301}{}{Yes, that's correct.} {302}{}{M...O...O...Moo?} {303}{}{Uh...no, I'm sorry. That's way off.} {304}{}{::chitter chitter:: ::click clack:: ::chirp (tail swing)::} {305}{}{Correct! Good boy! Gooooood boy! Your Morse code skills are improving nicely.} {306}{}{You have proven that you are just as perceptive as the radscorpion.} {400}{}{Checkmate ::click::} {401}{}{WHAT? You cheated!} {402}{}{Ecmat?} {403}{}{Don't be a sore loser.} {404}{}{and...checkmate!} {405}{}{Chekmaaate!} {406}{}{::chitter:: Kill plant! ::click-clack-click::} {407}{}{You have proven that you can subvert a radscorpion that is more intelligent than you.}
