"Wouldn't mind getting assigned to one of those research programs. I hear the pay is better."
Do you like working here?"Oh, sure. Everyone is really great. Top of their game, medically speaking. I've learned so much these last few years. I try not to take any of it for granted. This career, helping people... It really means something."
"Wait, this isn't some kind of threat, is it? I already gave you all I could. Any more and I'm going to risk my job here. Give me a break, okay?" (If threatened during "Doctor's Orders")
"Wait, this isn't some kind of threat, is it? I told you I couldn't help you. And, come to think of it, stuff disappeared anyway. But you wouldn't know anything about that, would you? Look, let's just forget the whole thing. I've got work to do." (If items are stolen during "Doctor's Orders")
Hey, what's the worst case you've seen in here?"Oh, we're not really supposed to talk about that kind of thing. Doctor-patient confidentiality, and all that. Dr. Darvish is pretty strict about that. Well, about everything, but definitely that."
"Bye."

"Is there something I can help you with? You look a bit lost."
You owe the Fleet some supplies. I'm here to collect."Whoa, whoa. Look, I know I haven't been in contact, but I'm not looking for any trouble. Especially here."
Samina sent me. She's concerned about a delivery she arranged with you."I figured it was only a matter of time before she sent someone, though I was hoping she'd come herself."
I'm here to make sure you follow through on a delivery."Damn... You're Fleet, aren't you? I should've known she'd send someone."
"Look, the price of goods here has gone up. Doubled, tripled even. Did she not even consider a cheaper supplier? She really should."
No, we aren't changing suppliers. You made a deal with Samina, and you have to honor it."I know we had a deal, but the Fleet don't like paying a premium. I was hoping she'd take the hint and find another supplier."
Samina doesn't want low grade supplies. The Clinic offers the best."Well, I was afraid you'd say that. I was really hoping she'd take the hint. Truth is, there was no price hike on the Clinic. But I didn't lie to fatten my pockets, or buy Aurora. I just wanted to nudge her toward another supplier."
Find another supplier? I thought you were overcharging to fund your Aurora habit."Samina told you about that, huh. Well, I get why she'd think that, but that's not it at all. I was trying to nudge her into ending our partnership, using the only language the Fleet knows. Creds."
"It's just... I hear about people getting treated or dying all the time due to run ins with the Fleet. How does it all shake out in the end? I don't know... Either way it seems like I end up with lives on my conscience."
Actually, never mind. I don't need your help. We're done here."I think we are. Now, I need to get back to work."
[Combat Medic] Your job is to help those who need it, not to decide who lives and dies."*sigh* That's the one thing I keep circling back to... and probably why I'm actually going to do this."
[Manipulation] Samina wants to save lives. Only a heartless bastard would turn her down."You're right. She's the best surgeon I've ever known. If it wasn't for that malpractice crap she went through, I'm sure she'd still be legit."
[Intimidation] Hand over the supplies, or you'll have a lot more lives on your conscience."Shit. All right, all right. That's the last thing I'd want right now."
If you're in a moral dilemma, let me help."Yeah? Advice from the Fleet? I doubt it."
"I think you've convinced me. Still, I can't believe I made a deal with the Crimson Fleet."
"I'm sorry. I thought I could do it... but I just can't. Tell Samina, if she wants to expose me, she can. I'm willing to sacrifice my happiness if it means fewer Fleet."

If approached after failing to persuade:
-
"Look, I said I wasn't going to help. Now will you just leave?"
I'm not walking out of here without those supplies."You might want to rethink that before I call security."
We're not finished here."I think we are. Now, I need to get back to work."
I tried the nice way, so now you've left me no choice."Come on. We all have a choice. You can just walk away here..."
Fine. I can find another way."I'm sure the Fleet always does. Next time you see Samina, tell her to come herself."
[Credits] Take these credits. You can buy new supplies, and I won't have to kill you."All right. You got me. It's no surprise I'm a sucker when it comes to self-preservation. I've stashed the supplies in the storage closet just around the hall. Here's the key. Just try not to let anyone see you. I want to keep this as under the radar as possible.""
[Credits] I'd pay for the supplies, but I don't have the creds. I guess I'll have to improvise."I'm sure the Fleet always does. Next time you see Samina, tell her to come herself."
[Gangster] I've killed a lot of people in my day. Today wouldn't be any different."Killing people's just a daily routine for you types isn't it? Fine."
[Wanted] This isn't new to me. I won't hesitate to kill everyone here to get those supplies."Shit, you would, wouldn't you."
[Crippiling] Hand over those supplies, or the Clinic's about to have a new trauma patient."All right. You got me. It's no surprise I'm a sucker when it comes to self-preservation."
Show: Persuasions
Samina's counting on you. You want to disappoint her?
"I don't want to disappoint anyone... that's my problem. And I do consider her a friend..."
"I want to help, but the Fleet? That's a big deal, and I don't know if I can shoulder that guilt."
You could rest easy knowing that the supplies are still being used to save lives.
"Samina would make good use of them, not like the people out there making the next cocktail to get high."
"It's not that I doubt the use, it's the motives of the people being saved."
The Fleet are people, too. Don't all people deserve help in your book?
"I can't argue with that. I don't want to deny anyone help that truly needs it."
"If I helped the Fleet, and the next day a civilian ship is attacked by pirates? I couldn't forgive myself."
Do you really want your Fleet connections exposed? You'd lose your job.
"This job is my life... I'd hate to risk it."
"Hey, I've been clean for years, and I have a good reputation here on the Clinic. It'd be my words against hers. At this point, it'd take some serious evidence for anyone to believe her."
