 	GREETING 	Fear 20 	Is Benny taken care of yet? 	
 	GREETING 	Fear 15 	You're back. Find anything? 	
 	GREETING 	Fear 20 	You ready to deal with Benny yet? 	
 	GREETING 	Fear 20 	So that's it then. Benny's dead, and I'm the boss now. What can I do for you? 	
 	GREETING 	Surprise 25	I heard you were wandering around. Haven't gotten yourself arrested yet, huh? 	
 	GREETING 	Disgust 30 	This is just swell - Benny vamooses and I'm left holding the bag. Whaddya need, kid? 	
 	GREETING 	Happy 30 	Heya baby, good to see you. Always nice to have a celebrity drop by. 	
 	GREETING 	Anger 20 	Got to admit, baby, I'm surprised to see you walking around like this. Figured you for persona non grata around here. 	
 	GREETING 	Anger 40 	Kid, you better have a good reason for waltzing back in here and not expecting us to fill you full of lead. So talk. 	
 	GREETING 	Fear 30 	Jesus. Benny's dead, and now I gotta take up the slack. This right here is the end of an era. 	
 	GREETING 	Happy 40 	{draw out "hello;" this whole line is flirty} Hello, baby! Welcome to the Tops! What can I do for you? 	
 	GREETING 	Happy 15 	Hey there, pal! Welcome to the Tops, and what can I do for you today? 	
 	GREETING 	Happy 5 	You did good, putting those Omerta finks in their place. I never did trust them. 	
 	GREETING 	Surprise 20	So all of a sudden I'm hearing word that Mr. House ain't the boss of Vegas? Baby, that's just not square. 	
 	GREETING 	Surprise 20	Little birdies tell me you've been to visit the Lucky 38 - {mildly suspicious} not a lot of folks go in there these days. 	
 	GREETING 	Happy 30 	Hey, doll, how's my favorite girl? Got a kiss for me? 	
 	GREETING 	Happy 20 	Couldn't stay away, huh baby? Shoulda known. What can I do for you? 	
 	GREETING 	Surprise 5 	Something else you need? 	
 	GREETING 	Neutral 50 	{greets player after Benny killed or fled, accompanied by a Victor or House Securitron whose face screen then blinks over to the default} You got friends in high places, kid! According to this heap of bolts here, Mr. House don't want you touched.	
 	GREETING 	Neutral 50 	In fact, I've been directed to cooperate with your {beat, quoting the robot} "investigation," so you have the run of the place. Go where you want. 	
 	GREETING 	Neutral 50 	{player fled or fought way out after Benny killed/fled} Hey, kid - let's not have trouble this time, hey? 	
 	GREETING 	Neutral 50 	I did some nosing around after your last {raise eyebrows, all hell broke loose} visit. In Benny's suite, to be specific. 	
 	GREETING 	Neutral 50 	What I saw, well, it's a bit out of my league. But it was enough to make me think you mighta been the party wronged. 	
 	GREETING 	Neutral 50 	Check Benny's suite. The angle he was playing, well, maybe you can figure it out. 	
 	GREETING 	Neutral 50 	I've told the boys to leave you be. Don't abuse the hospitality. 	
 	I've got evidence that Benny tried to kill me and stole a Platinum Chip from me. 	Fear 20 	Whoa, hey now, kid, that's some kind of serious charge you're dropping. You want to be real careful what you say next. 	
 	I've got more evidence that proves Benny tried to kill me. 	Disgust 20 	Yeah? What else you got? 	
 	I think you should know something about Benny. 	Surprise 25	Really? You got something to say about the big boss, huh? Well, why don't you say it to his face instead of yapping at me? 	
 	Who are you? 	Disgust 10 	Ain't been on the strip long, have you, pal? Name's Swank. This is my joint. 	
 	Who are you? 	Happy 30 	Baby, I'm the best thing that ever happened to you. Name's Swank. This here's my joint. 	
 	What do you know about the NCR? 	Surprise 20	I hear they got their act together out west - like a real old-time country, they tell me. 	
 	What do you know about the NCR? 	Anger 15 	Now, maybe that's true and maybe it ain't, but Vegas is a whole new scene. Those bear-flag boys better step light, unless they want a knuckle supper. 	
 	Nice place you've got here. Tell me about it. 	Happy 20 	The Tops? Yeah, sure, you want the nickel tour ol' Swank's happy to oblige. 	
 	Nice place you've got here. Tell me about it. 	Happy 30 	We got everything you could want - slot machines in the back, cards and roulette in the front, fine entertainment upstairs in the Aces Theater. 	
 	Nice place you've got here. Tell me about it. 	Happy 50 	And all with your security personally guaranteed by the Chairmen and Mr. House's own Securitron police. It's the Tops! 	
 	Can you give me the rundown on New Vegas? 	Happy 20 	Sure, kid, sure. What can I tell you? 	
 	I'm looking to make a few extra caps. Got any jobs you need done? 	Happy 30 	Baby, you stick with me, you won't have to work a day in your life. Don't fret about caps, you just sit there and look pretty for me. 	
 	Have you seen Benny? 	Surprise 20	I saw him heading for his suite just a few minutes ago. Looked like a fox that just got caught in the henhouse. Maybe you'll catch him there. 	
 	I thought Benny ran this place. 	Happy 10 	Benny oversees the business, sure, but I run the Tops day to day. I'm his right-hand guy, you dig? 	
 	I thought Benny ran this place. 	Sad 15 	Yeah, well, that's the way it used to be. Now that Benny's gone, it's just me in charge. 	
 	Nice place. Got a minute to talk? 	Happy 10 	Sure, kid, sure - I can spare a couple. What can I do for you? 	
 	Somehow I find that hard to believe. 	Sad 30 	Ouch! Come on, baby, don't be that way. You don't know what you're missing. 	
 	I haven't had a chance to look yet. 	Anger 10 	All right, well, might want to get a move on, is all I'm saying. 	
 	Benny has reprogrammed a Securitron, he's trying to take over the Strip. 	Fear 25 	He's what? Ah jeez... jeez, this is really bad. What are you going to do? 	
 	I thought maybe I'd talk to the man. See if we can work out a deal. 	Surprise 20	Yeah? That's ballsy. Good luck with that. 	
 	Look, I found these cigarette butts by the grave he buried me in. 	Surprise 20	Huh. Well, yeah, okay, these are Benny's brand, and they ain't too common. You got anything else? 	
 	I found this lighter in Boulder City. He dropped it when he killed his partners. 	Pained 10 	Yeah, that looks like Benny's lighter all right. Still, not exactly a ton of proof. Got anything else, kid? 	
 	Here, take a look at this note I found in Novac. 	Fear 20 	That's... pretty shady, yeah. Could be Benny's up to no good, could be this is somebody else altogether. What else you got? 	
 	What's the story with the White Glove Society? 	Disgust 25 	Creepy bunch of cats, you ask me. Oh, sure, they act all polite and civilized, but there's something off about them, you dig? 	
 	What's the story with the White Glove Society? 	Fear 30 	Don't get me wrong, that resort of theirs is ring-a-ding, but my guts say, "don't go in the basement." 	
 	That's it. What do you think? 	Fear 10 	I'll tell you what I think, I think I oughta go tell Benny about this right now - but I'll clam up for now. 	
 	That's it. What do you think? 	Anger 10 	That's all I'm going to do, though, unless you can get me some more proof. 	
 	That's it. What do you think? 	Fear 20 	I think you might just be onto something here, kid. Tell you what, I can't actively back your play, but I'll keep the Chairmen off your back. 	
 	That's it. What do you think? 	Surprise 10	I'll tell the doormen you're cool to pack heat inside - trust me, you're gonna need it. 	
 	That's it. What do you think? 	Anger 20 	You'll still have to deal with Benny's private goon squad, though. I got no play with those cats. You want more help, I'll need more proof. 	
 	That's it. What do you think? 	Disgust 20 	Jesus, kid, I think we got a real problem on our hands. Can't believe Benny's a no-good stinkin' punk. Trying to play House like that.... 	
 	That's it. What do you think? 	Anger 25 	Tell you what - I'll call Benny, keep him away from his suite. You go search the place. Here's the key, it's on the 13th floor. 	
 	That's it. What do you think? 	Sad 15 	It's the room with the double doors, can't miss it. Maybe you'll find something we can show to Mr. House and get him arrested. 	
 	Okay, I'll do it. 	Happy 10 	Groovy. Here's your stuff back - in case you run into company, you dig? I'll tell the boys to give you a pass to pack some heat. 	
 	Okay, I'll do it. 	Anger 10 	Go on then. Elevators are past the slot machines on your left. 	
 	Actually, never mind. It's nothing. 	Anger 10 	Yeah, thought so. You're a smart kid, you know that? 	
 	We don't have time for that. We need to take him out right now. 	Fear 30 	Take him out? Jesus... okay, well, if you think that's the best way to deal with this. I'll send him up to his room, you can ambush him there. 	
 	We don't have time for that. We need to take him out right now. 	Fear 20 	And don't worry about the rest of the Chairmen - I'll keep them from getting involved. You'll still have to watch out for Benny's guards, though. 	
 	I don't think you're going to like it. Seems Benny's been making his own play. 	Surprise 30	Huh? What are you talking about? 	
 	I don't think you're going to like it. Seems Benny's been making his own play. 	Surprise 20	[SUCCEEDED] Huh? What are you talking about? 	
 	Uh, well, you know Benny's planning to screw you over, right? 	Anger 15 	[FAILED] Why you lousy no-good punk! Give me one reason why I shouldn't take this to Benny right now! 	
 	Ha ha! Take it easy, pal, I'm just pulling your leg. Honest. 	Disgust 30 	Anybody ever tell you your sense of humor stinks? I'll let it go this time, but you watch your mouth from now on. 	
 	Go ahead, see if I care. 	Anger 40 	Pal, you're gonna regret that for the rest of your very short life. 	
 	Benny tried to kill me and stole a platinum chip I was hired to deliver. 	Disgust 20 	That doesn't... why would he pull a stunt like that? Got anything else to offer? 	
 	Benny tried to kill me and stole a platinum chip I was hired to deliver. 	Surprise 15	[SUCCEEDED] That doesn't... why would he pull a stunt like that? Got anything else to offer? 	
 	Benny stole my chip! And he tried to kill me, Mr. House said so! 	Anger 35 	[FAILED] Kid, I think you really better shut up and stop making baseless accusations unless you got some proof. Well? 	
 	He tried to make it look like an accident - just a traveler killed and robbed in the Wasteland.	Anger 20 	He's trying to pull a fast one on the big man? Crazy bastard. You got any more? 	
 	He tried to make it look like an accident - just a traveler killed and robbed in the Wasteland.	Anger 20 	[SUCCEEDED] He's trying to pull a fast one on the big man? Crazy bastard. You got any more? 	
 	Benny's going to steal all of House's robots! Don't you see? 	Pained 15 	[FAILED] Kid, that doesn't even pretend to make sense. You want to try again? 	
 	Benny must think this chip will allow him to seize power on the Strip. 	Disgust 35 	Jesus, I can't even believe it. After all House did to set us up with this swank joint. I don't suppose there's more? 	
 	Benny must think this chip will allow him to seize power on the Strip. 	Disgust 35 	[SUCCEEDED] Jesus, I can't even believe it. After all House did to set us up with this swank joint. I don't suppose there's more? 	
 	Benny must think this chip will allow him to seize power on the Strip. 	Anger 25 	[FAILED] Now you're just talking crazy. No way Benny'd risk something like that. What else you got? 	
 	Let's talk about the Omertas. 	Anger 25 	Oh, they're a shifty pack of rats. If I were you, I'd keep one hand on my wallet and the other on my gun whenever they're around. 	
 	What do you know about Mr. House? 	Happy 20 	House is an all-right kind of guy. Sure, he keeps a pretty tight grip on the reins, but Vegas is a wild horse, and you can't just give her her head. 	
 	What do you know about Mr. House? 	Disgust 15 	Without Mr. House, we'd still be wearing gecko skins, poking around the ruins with pointy sticks and scalping people for giggles. 	
 	Tell me about the Chairmen. 	Happy 35 	Baby, we're only the coolest cats on the whole Strip. We been here the longest, we got the swankiest digs, and we got caps rolling in like the tide. 	
 	Tell me about the Chairmen. 	Happy 50 	Everybody loves the Chairmen, because we show them a simple good time, no strings attached. 	
 	Tell me about the Chairmen. 	Happy 35 	Man, we're only the coolest cats on the whole Strip. We been here the longest, we got the swankiest digs, and we got caps rolling in like the tide. 	
 	Tell me about the Chairmen. 	Happy 50 	Everybody loves the Chairmen, because we show them a simple good time, no strings attached. 	
 	Flattering, but I don't like being tied down. How about some real work? 	Surprise 10	You might have a jaw at Tommy Torini up in the Aces. He's always looking for talent scouts. 	
 	Baby, you're too good to me! How about some caps to buy myself something pretty? 	Happy 30 	Ooh, I dig the way you think, doll. Here, go treat yourself. 	
 	Let's talk about something else. 	Surprise 5 	Sure, whatever you want. 	
 	Not yet. Soon. 	Anger 10 	All right, well, might want to get a move on, is all I'm saying. 	
 	Yeah, he's dead. 	Fear 25 	Huh. Guess that makes me the boss. Ring-a-ding. 	
 	He bolted. But I'll find him. 	Disgust 20 	I hope so, kid. Last thing we need is that punk running around out there. 	
 	What do you think of Caesar's Legion? 	Disgust 30 	Oh, boy, those clowns. Listen up, kid, and listen good, I don't care how many fancy Latin names he gives himself, a thug ain't nothin' but a thug. 	
 	What do you think of Caesar's Legion? 	Anger 25 	Warlords and emperors? Don't make me laugh. At least they got enough brains to stay the hell out of New Vegas - Mr. House'd clean their clocks. 	
 	On second thought, let's talk about something else. 	Neutral 50 	Sure, kid, like what? 	
 	They took my guns at the security checkpoint. Can you set me up? 	Fear 15 	Yeah, sure. Take your stuff back - you'll need it. 	
 	They took my guns at the security checkpoint. Can you set me up? 	Anger 10 	Go on then. Elevators are past the slot machines on your right. 	
 	Okay, I'll do it. 	Happy 10 	Here's your stuff back - in case Benny don't go quiet, you dig? I'll tell the boys to give you a pass to pack some heat. 	
 	Okay, I'll do it. 	Anger 10 	Go on then. Elevators are past the slot machines on your right. 	
 	Okay, I'll do it. 	Sad 10 	Go on then. Elevators are past the slot machines on your right. 	
 	Not yet, I want to take care of a few things first. 	Sad 15 	Okay. Just let me know when you're ready. 	
 	Yeah, send him up to his room. I'll take care of him. 	Fear 30 	Yeah, sure. I hope you know what you're doing, kid. 	
 	Yeah. Keep him distracted while I search his room. 	Happy 10 	You got it. Anything else? 	
 	I'm not sure yet, but I had some other questions first. 	Happy 10 	Sure, whatcha need? 	
 	Goodbye. 	Happy 10 	Sure, kid, see ya.

 	RNVNewsStoryLine2 	Neutral 50	{Swank:} If I know my pal Benny, he's swinging with the Big Cat Upstairs as we speak. Or he's chasing some angel broad with cans as big as her halo! <Laughs>	
 	RNVNewsStoryLine2 	Neutral 50	{Swank:} Do I seem worried to you, baby? Sometimes a cat just needs room to swing. He'll be back, sure as a conga drum's got a groovy beat.
