Transcript

MELISSA BANKS: I hate seeing people drink alone.

LEV ARRIS: Then put a stop to it.

MELISSA BANKS: So, hot shot, how have you been keeping?

LEV ARRIS: Busy.

MELISSA BANKS: Still trying to find that man you used to know?

LEV ARRIS: Yeah. You still afraid of being alone in the dark?

MELISSA BANKS: I didn't say I was afraid, just that I preferred company. Not just any company, though. I'm choosy.

LEV ARRIS: That's what I hear.

MELISSA BANKS: So you've ben asking about me.

LEV ARRIS: I don't need to ask, people talk about you. There's even a crazy rumor about you and me.

MELISSA BANKS: Is that so? Well, maybe you should give them some more gossip. You free tonight?

LEV ARRIS: Free for what?

MELISSA BANKS: {Whispers}

LEV ARRIS: Is that legal?

MELISSA BANKS: Legal? That probably isn't even physically possible.

MELISSA BANKS ADDITIONAL DIALOGUE


(After SC 357, when Arris escorts her out of system:)

SC.432 (IN GAMEPLAY: COMPUTER GENERATED: VO ONLY)

MELISSA (VO)
Thanks again, Lev. For everything.
Let's get together again sometime,
okay?

(The player is able to run into Melissa several more times,
outside the main game flow. Perhaps this should be have
something to do with his "karma" level? But the
interactions can be plugged into any one of the various
bars.)

When the player clicks on her:

SC.433 ARRIS - INT. SINNERS INN

Sitting by himself -- cocks an eye up as someone approaches
his table. A slow smile grows on his face.

MELISSA (0.S)
I hate seeing people drink alone.
ARRIS
Then put a stop to it.

SC.434 A LIT LE WIDER

As she sits down beside him, puts an arm around him.

MELISSA
So, hotshot...how've you been keeping?
ARRIS
Busy.
MELISSA
Still trying to find that man you used
to know?
ARRIS
Yeah. And are you still afraid of being
alone in the dark?
MELISSA
I didn't say I was afraid,just that I
preferred company. Not just any company,
though. I'm choosy.
ARRIS
That's what I hear.
MELISSA
Oh, so you've been asking about me?
ARRIS
I don't need to ask. People talk about you.
There's even this crazy rumour about you
and me.
MELISSA
Is that so? Well...maybe we should give them
some more gossip. You free tonight?
ARRIS
Free for what?

She leans forward and whispers in his ear. At first he
smiles...then he's shocked.

ARRIS
Is that legal?
MELISSA
Legal?

She gets to her feet, pulling him to his...

MELISSA
It probably ain't even physically
possible!
