Uh-huh!
 
What did I tell you, 314? What did I bloody tell you!?!
 
Techsmith 314: '''Oh, sir! You said there would be a drive-thru at this location and that we'd best take the giant robot if we were to use its exquisite service, sir.'''<br />
 
Incorrect... That is most incorrect, 314! I am very disappointed with you, 314. I clearly said we'd best deliver "'''The Lightning'''" to <playername>.
 
I remember it! I said <playername> will require The Lightning to defeat this Demon army and '''learn th efinal Truth'''.
 
Yes, I did, I did indeed. I said as much. I surely did.
 
Techsmith 314: '''No, sir. I'm afraid you most certainly said, "drive-thru." And I distinctly recall you naming the ginat robot Gorilla Grod's Soup Can, not "The Lightning," sir.'''<br />
 
How dare you doubt me! I know what I said and I bloody well said what I said!
 
- I took notes, sir.
 
Lies!
 
Lies!
 
- And I have a recording.
 
Vicious fabrication!
 
- And you've autographed a confession.
 
Under extreme duress!
 
- There are also many photographs, sir. You sighed them as well. Most emphatically, sir.
 
Well then... I'm getting a damn sandwich! And you can go to hell..again!
 
- Yes, sir! Very good, sir! Very good! And shall I instruct River as to Soup Ca -- er, excuse me -- "The Lightning's" use?
 
For goodness sake! Are you mad, man? The instructions are extremely complex.
 
Your pathetic Demon tarnished brain could never hope to relate them adequately!
 
- <playername> takes control, moves forward, kills things.
 
Damn you... Lucky guess! I suppose you'd like to be called The Guess Master now, eh?
 
Very well, Guess Master! You've won this round! Cherish your victory! It will not come again.
 
- Yes sir! I shall cherish it always, sir! But not so much as I shall cherish the sweet release of death, sir. Oh, to die and be released from this walking nightmare! What joy that will be!
 
Yes, well... Anyway! My sandwich isn't going to make its damn self, 314.
 
Now, <playername>, use that robot!
 
'''Ride The Lightning''' to Truth! And '''make me a sandwich''', you lazy bitch!

* Lucious: ''Uh-huh!''<br />
Well, maybe we do have a change...now that we have a giant robot called '''The Lightning'''!
+
* Lucious: ''What did I tell you, 314? What did I bloody tell you!?!''<br />
Oh, I wouldn't worry. I'm sure Lucious' madness makes for terrific robotics!
+
* Techsmith 314: ''Oh, sir! You said there would be a drive-thru at this location and that we'd best take the giant robot if we were to use its exquisite service, sir.''<br />
maybe there is hope in this? Maybe all this is hope? It is a chance, anyway.

* Lucious: ''Incorrect... That is most incorrect, 314! I am very disappointed with you, 314. I clearly said we'd best deliver "'''The Lightning'''" to <playername>.''<br />
Just the smallest of chances... That's all I ever needed and exactly what we got. And now everything hinges on this...monstrosity.

Ha!

* Lucious: ''Yes, I did, I did indeed. I said as much. I surely did.''<br />
It's perfect, <playername>. It's absolutely perfect.
+
* Techsmith 314: ''No, sir. I'm afraid you most certainly said, "drive-thru." And I distinctly recall you naming the giant robot "Gorilla Grod's Soup Can", not "The Lightning," sir.''<br />
It's everything I fought for and everything I would make of victory.

* Lucious: ''How dare you doubt me! I know what I said and I bloody well said what I said!''<br />
You don't understand, do you? No. How could you?
+
* Techsmith 314: ''I took notes, sir.''<br />
Small chances, River. I would see to fashioning a world of small chances where slim hopes against impossible odds can result in tidal waves of success.
+
* Lucious: ''Lies!''<br />
Don't you see? It's all about a tomorrow of uncertainty, <playername>.

* Lucious: ''Lies!''<br />
It's all about a tomorrow that yields change.

* Techsmith 314: ''And I have a recording.''<br />
Without change, what's the point of existing? We'd just be singing the same not efor ever and ever and ever. And wouldn't that just be noise?Now, let's kill these bastards and '''raise the Sigil'''.
