{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.} {316}{}{[continue]} {400}{}{Dogmeat.} {401}{}{K9.}
