President Richardson Sounds: Fallout 2 Edit

A little history first.

A very important, unexpected guest.

Actually, they worked almost exactly the way they were supposed to. You might call it a social experiment on a grand scale.

Ah ha.

Ah well, just one second.

Ah, ah. Guards. Guards.

Ah.

Ah.

Ah.

Ah.

Ah.

All that background radiation you've been exposed to?

All those inoculation shots would disorient anyone.

America will be the world's policeman.

And it certainly paint me a picture of what life's like in that radioactive hell on the mainland.

And the rest of the globe.

And what are you doing here?

And who do you think you are barging into my office?

Any humanoid that isn't inoculated against its effects before its release will die.

Are you going to shoot me or not?

As is everyone on the project.

As the embodiment of the Executive branch, I bear the burden of ensuring the survival and prosperity of the United States and of humanity itself, a heavy burden.

Because you are.

But at least it knocked the damn red menace back into the Stone Age.

But I must say, I have seldom seen a stranger or scarier delegation of misfits in all my life.

Can we all just get along?

Conversation with a genuine mutant like you.

Do I know you?

Do you have a report?

Do you really think you can intimidate the president of the United States?

Doctor.

Glad to make time for one of our gallant troopers, but I am rather busy so.

God Bless America.

God bless us, everyone.

Good news. I hope our salvation is in your team's hands.

Guards.

Guards.

Guards.

He may yet come around.

He volunteered to try one of the early versions of the Fe V toxin antidote. Unfortunately, it didn't quite work out the way we'd hoped.

He's one of the bravest men I know.

Hello there, I'm the President of the United States of America, and I must say I have seldom seen a stranger or sorrier delegation of misfits in all my life. Just who are you to barge in on me this...

Hello there.

Hello there.

Hello there. I'm President Richardson and I'm damn proud to meet you.

Hello, Doctor.

Hello, I'm the president of the United States of America. And you are.

Hello.

Hello.

Her to shame.

His spelling ability is actually improved.

Hmm, a little history.

However, our brilliant chemical Corps altered it.

Humanity salvation is almost at hand, and the United States of America will be the progenitor of that rebirth.

Humans will prevail.

I am rather busy.

I am the elected representative of the people.

I am the President of the United States of America.

I am the president of the United States of America. The Vice President is in the office outside. If you belonged here, you'd know that. Who are you and what are you doing here?

I assure you I'm quite sane.

I could use a little assistance here.

I don't think this tired old planet's big enough for two top dogs.

I thank you.

I think you've been exposed to the FPV.

I wouldn't be of any use as a hostage.

I'll get you some help.

I'm President Richardson, and I'm damn proud to meet you.

I'm sure we can work something out.

I'm sure you think so.

I'm the President of the United States of America, and I must say I have seldom seen a stranger or scarier delegation of misfits in all my life. Just who are you to barge in on me this way?

I'm the president of the United States of America, and you are.

I'm the president of the United States of America.

If it means the return of the earth to our children and to their children, I bear it gladly.

If it's us or you, well, I'm going to choose us.

If you belonged here, you'd know that.

If you do, I'll go to my reward knowing that I died at Patriot and a servant of humanity.

If you were human, you'd feel the same way.

If your kind is allowed to flourish, it will mean the end of the human race as we know it. We can't allow radioactive freaks to squeeze humans into extinction.

It was originally developed to turn soldiers into super warriors, but it failed.

It's almost ready.

It's tiny, mocking minds like yours that prove the superiority of real humans over mutants.

Just one second.

Just who are you to barge in on me this way?

Let me get one of the Secret Service to escort you back.

Let me tell you about mankind salvation.

My guards have orders to shoot me rather than let anything or anyone endanger the project.

Nice to meet you.

No.

No.

No.

Now, now, now, now let's let's what what? What is it you want anyway?

Of course, your Eminence, why don't I just call for some refreshments? We can talk and work things out.

Of course, your eminence.

Of course.

Ohh yeah. Ohh yeah.

Ohh, it's no problem at all.

Ohh, that's quite alright.

Ohh.

Ohk OK, OK, whatever you say. I'll just sit here quietly. It's nice to meet you. Goodbye.

On behalf of the United States government and all humanity, I thank you.

Once again, America will be the world's policeman.

One second.

Our gallant soldiers fought from the Yukon to the Yangtze.

Part of the president's job is to make the tough decisions.

Part of the president's job is to make the tough decisions. A lot of near humans will sacrifice their lives for the return of humanity.

Right away.

Shouldn't you be working on the project Mankind? Salvation depends on you.

Shouldn't you be working on the project?

So what?

Somebody's living here, all right. Yeah. Ohh yeah.

That is the project.

That's humanity's last best hope. That's what we've been working towards all these years.

That's the spirit.

That's what separates humans like me from mutants like you.

The buck stops here.

The Fev virus.

The government of the United States of America has been working towards a solution for quite some time.

The guards have orders to shoot me rather than let anyone or anything endanger the project.

The only way for true humans and democracy to be safe is to cleanse the mutants from the globe.

The President of the United States.

The project will cleanse all the mutants from our fair land.

The United States does still exist.

The United States.

The vaults were part of the great plan.

The Vaults were set up to test humanity. Some had not enough food synthesizers. Others had only men in them. Yet others were designed to open after only six months. They each had a unique set of ci...

The vice president is in the office outside.

The Warriors were tough and strong, but far too stupid.

There may even be some unforeseen benefits.

There was a Great War long before we were born.

To turn it into a staggeringly effective killer.

Uh hmm.

Um.

Vice President Byrd may look like a drooling idiot. But I'll have you know, that man's a national hero.

Wait here.

We can't allow radioactive freaks to squeeze humans into extinction.

We had a number of sanctuaries that would enable the glorious American civilization to endure.

We had planned ahead. We were ready.

We humans will take back that which is rightfully ours.

We were winning too. And then those damn Reds launched. We barely got our birds up.

We're dedicated to the salvation of the human race.

We've just had to adapt in order to survive after the war.

Well, hello there.

Well, hello there. Glad to make time for one of our gallant troopers, but I am rather busy. So what can the President of the United States of America do for you?

Well, I'm sure we can work something out.

Well, no, it didn't.

Well, no, no, not quite.

What are you doing here?

What are you doing outside of the reconditioning center?

What can the President of the United States of America do for you?

What is it you want anyway?

What is it you want?

What project are you on?

What?

What's on your mind?

Who are you?

Who are you?

Why don't I just call for some refreshments? We can talk and work things out.

Year back.

Yes.

Yes.

You can call single minded dedication to A cause madness, I suppose, but if so, it's divine madness.

You don't really expect that to work, do you?

You don't really expect that to work, do you? If you try it, my guards have orders to shoot me. Rather than let anything or anyone endanger the project. I'm staying right here now. Are you going to...

You really don't know, do you?

You should probably get back to your isolation ward now though.

You there?

You've been doing your country an invaluable service.
