After James returns to his former colleagues, almost twenty years after abandoning it and fleeing to Vault 101, Alex and Daniel Agincourt get the call to return from the field.The Lone Wanderer: "What's your story?"Alex Dargon: "Who, me? Oh, nothing special. I grew up in Rivet City, and was always interested in what the scientists were doing there. Doctor Li took me under her wing, and taught me everything I know. Dan and I were out in the field when we got the call to come back."(Alex Dargon's dialogue) He cheerfully follows Doctor Li's return to the project and is confident that they will have it up and running soon.Alex Dargon: ""The Lone Wanderer: "Do you think Project Purity will ever work again?"Alex Dargon: "I don't see why not.

Yeah, I think we'll be up and running in no time."(Alex Dargon's dialogue) He helps the team and helps guide the Lone Wanderer to the flood control pumps, warning them to be careful of the radioactive water seeping in from the Tidal Basin and to watch out for loose power wires.The Lone Wanderer: "Where are the flood control pumps?"Alex Dargon: "You're kidding me, right? "(Alex Dargon's dialogue)The Lone Wanderer: "Anything I should know about this place?"Alex Dargon: "I'd steer clear of the water if I were you. It's seeping in from the Tidal Basin, which means it's radioactive. If that's not bad enough, if there are any loose wires as the power comes back on... you might get a bit of a jolt. Know what I mean?"(Alex Dargon's dialogue)The Lone Wanderer: "I have to go now."Alex Dargon: "Be careful, okay?"(Alex Dargon's dialogue)

Why don't you take care of it?"The Lone Wanderer: "I have to go now."Alex Dargon: "I really don't want to die down here."(Alex Dargon's dialogue) During the escape. his colleague Garza's heart condition worsens, having left his medicine behind in the rush.

Really amazing stuff here."The Lone Wanderer: "I have to go now."Alex Dargon: "Catch you around!"(Alex Dargon's dialogue)) where they join Lyons' Brotherhood's efforts at restoring the project.

Well, I figured after all the work we already put into this place, we could help the Brotherhood keep things running smoothly. It's worked out pretty well so far, I think.
