{100}{}{You see Sheriff Stern - the police chief in Duston.}
{101}{}{You see Sheriff Stern.}
{102}{}{You see a tall and stern-looking man. His name is Stern. You don't really know whether it's a real name or a nick.}
{103}{}{[continue]}
{104}{}{You managed to accomplish the task partially. You get 50 Experience Points.}
{105}{}{You saved Ferguson. Somehow, you feel you did well. You get 200 Experience Points.}
{106}{}{You failed to accomplish the mission. You fell yet another victim to Ferguson's tricks.}
{107}{}{You broke your word. The Junkyard community will not tolerate you anymore.}
{108}{}{Your stay in jail made the town's inhabitants suspicious towards you.}
{109}{}{FREEDOM! Let me out! HWDP!}

{150}{}{We have nothing to talk about.}
{151}{}{Can't you see I'm busy?}
{152}{}{Go away.}
{153}{}{Why don't you go and have a look if I'm at Crater City right now?}

{200}{}{Good day. How can I help you?}

{201}{}{Hello, Sheriff Stern. I'd like to ask some questions.}
{202}{}{I have a crime to report!}
{203}{}{Good day. Just passing through.}

{204}{}{Shoot ahead.}
{205}{}{What is it?}
{206}{}{See you later, then.}

{207}{}{What can you tell me about Duston?}
{208}{}{What is the law concerning drugs and weapons?}
{209}{}{Heard any good rumours?}
{210}{}{Would you have any job for me?}
{2100}{}{Mr Candlekeeper told me you could have a job for me. Something about Ferguson case...}

{211}{}{Why, Duston is a small town which I am sheriff of. It lies a bit off the main trade routes, that's why it's rather calm. It is divided into two districts - the Downtown, where normal people live, and the Junkyard - a shanty town full of beggars, drunkards and junkies. You don't wanna go there, believe me.}
{212}{}{It's simple. You can carry weapons, though you shouldn't use them unless attacked by someone else. As for drugs - you can have them, but our policy on taking them is quite strict - anyone caught 'high' in a public place will be incarcerated for 48 hours.}
{213}{}{Well, I don't really listen to rumours. Any other questions?}
{214}{}{I thought you were working for Mr DiAngelo?}
{2140}{}{I'm afraid not. I can't trust you after your narcotic adventures.}
{2141}{}{That's not fair! I was innocent!}
{2142}{}{I said NO! Any more questions?}

{215}{}{Thanks. I'll be going now.}
{216}{}{Thank you. Can I ask another question?}
{217}{}{Yes.}
{218}{}{No, thank you. Goodbye!}
{219}{}{Well, yes, but I'm pressed for cash a bit and I'm looking for a few extra dollars.}

{220}{}{Goodbye!}
{221}{}{Sorry to disappoint you, but I don't have anything at the moment. Still, I'll give you a call if I need you. Anything else you wanted to ask me?}

# I have a crime to report!
{222}{}{Sorry, nothing at the moment.}
{223}{}{You shouldn't make fun of me, you know.}
{224}{}{Yes, I know. I'm sorry, Sheriff.}
{225}{}{Anything else?}

{226}{}{I've seen somebody under the influence of psychoactive substances wandering around the pharmacy.}
{227}{}{There's some guy flying way high on Jet by the drugstore.}

{228}{}{Is there? I'll send somebody to take him off there immediately.}
{229}{}{Well, there is a delicate matter to be taken care of...}

{230}{}{Tell me more.}
{231}{}{Delicate? No guns blazing? Not for me, sorry.}

{232}{}{A mister Ferguson owes Mr Candlekeeper 120$. A couple of months ago he collected his business and disappeared. Our people learned that he hid in the Junkyard. However, every time we went there to arrest him, he was nowhere to be found.}
{233}{}{What I need you to do is to go to the Junkyard, find Ferguson and collect the tab. If you manage to bring him here, you will be paid extra. Am I clear?}

{234}{}{Crystal clear.}
{235}{}{You mentioned something about the pay?}
{236}{}{On second thought, I don't want to do that job.}

{237}{}{Fine. Come back with the tab.}
{238}{}{You will be able to choose from some of Mr Candlekeeper's equipment. Now, don't let me hold you...}
{239}{}{Awr, you're pissing me off. Get out of here!}
# Ferguson quest
{250}{}{Do you have the money?}
{251}{}{Ooh, here comes officer }
{252}{}{ and Mr Ferguson! Hahahah, good job, man!}

{253}{}{Yes, here it is, 120$.}
{254}{}{I only managed to collect 80$.}
{255}{}{I don't have it yet. I'll get back to you.}
{256}{}{He's all yours. The money is here.}
{257}{}{I'm sorry to say that, but Ferguson already left the city with the money.}
{258}{}{I regret to inform you that Ferguson is dead. He left no money.}

{259}{}{Excellent! Go to Mr Candlekeeper to collect your reward.}
{260}{}{Not good. Mr Candlekeeper will not be happy. Still, 80 dollars is better than nothing...}
{261}{}{Are you sure? I think he just hid like the other times WE went looking for him. Too bad.}
{262}{}{I guess it was possible all the way. We'll never find him now.}
{263}{}{Dead?! Who might have wanted him dead?! That's a pity.}

{264}{}{Do I get any of my reward?}
{265}{}{Goodbye.}

{266}{}{No, why? You didn't accomplish anything! Now, scoot.}
{267}{}{Well, here, 25$. For the effort. Now, I have work to do.}

{268}{}{OK, the boys put him in a cell so he can sober up. We'll take care not to let him wander near the drugs again.}
{269}{}{Thank you, Sheriff.}

{270}{}{Boy, whatever happened to your eyes?! You're high as the moon! We'll gotta have to put you in a cell until you sober up!}
{271}{}{Excellent! You can collect your reward from Mr Candlekeeper. And hey, have this - you earned it! (You receive a Stimpak.)}
# Betray Ferguson
{272}{}{Sir, I report that Ferguson is indeed at the Junkyard and that he tried to bribe me to tell you that he left. If we move in quickly, we might get him!}
{273}{}{Quickly! There's no time to lose!}
{274}{}{You idiot! You let him slip! Don't let me see you again!}
# Naive
{275}{}{Sir, I talked to Ferguson and he is completely broke. He told me that he had a chance of getting a job soon and asked for one more month to repay the debt.}
{276}{}{You dumb idiot! You believed a word he said?! I told you to BRING BACK THE TAB! Or best, BRING HIM HERE! I didn't tell you to talk to him. We can do that ourselves! You fucked the job up and he is probably a long way from here right now. Learn this lesson and don't come again asking for work!}
{277}{}{But...}

{278}{}{Mayor Candlekeeper here told me some very worrying things about you. You need to be corrected, or you'll end up like those scabs in the Junkyard. I need to put you in the brig for 48 hours.}

{279}{}{I'll never tolerate your oppression!}
{280}{}{Leave me alone, you dumbass! I'm innocent!}
{281}{}{No, Sheriff, please!}

{282}{}{Save the big words for another time, OK? Boys, let's get him in number 3!}
{283}{}{I'm sorry to do it, but maybe it will serve as a lesson for you...}

###

{300}{}{Say, you've been looking for a job. I might have something. Are you interested?}
{301}{}{I am. What is it?}
{302}{}{Oh, no, thank you. I can't accept any more jobs at the moment.}

{303}{}{In the morning, we found George, you know, the train station keeper, dead. I sent almost everybody to guard the caravans and I can't spare anyone to investigate.}
{304}{}{So you need me to do it?}
{305}{}{Yes. I need you to find out who or what killed him and report to me. We'll decide what to do. Are you in?}
{320}{}{Too bad.}

{306}{}{I'm on it, sir.}
{307}{}{What do I get out of it?}
{308}{}{Nah, not my type of job, sorry.}

{309}{}{Great. Report back when you've found something.}
{310}{}{Well, does 200$ sound any appealing?}
{311}{}{Goddammit! You said you wanted the job!}

{312}{}{Not quite. I want 400$.}
{313}{}{Will do. I'm on it.}
{314}{}{After all, I changed my mind. I don't want that job.}
{315}{}{I said I MIGHT have wanted it. I didn't know what it involved.}

{316}{}{Out of the question. Take that or stop wasting my time.}
{317}{}{Geez, I really can't spare anyone at the moment. All right, you greedy bastard. You'll have your 400$.}
{318}{}{Stop wasting my time, then.}
{319}{}{Yeah, stop wasting mine.}

{321}{}{Yes, what is it?}
{322}{}{Sheriff Stern, you mentioned something about a job before...}
{323}{}{Oops, sorry to disturb you.}
