Choice Text and Results

Explain what happened

He stares at you for a second. "What? It's gone? I tell you to do one simple fucking thing and this is how you handle it? Well, you're obviously not Third Eye material. Maybe go join the Fangs, they sound more your speed."

(and, if Dr. Amundsen is still in the boiler room)
He pounds the rest of his over/under and storms out. "If you weren't so damned incompetent, I could have you guard the crazy lady under the labs. Hell."

(otherwise)
He pounds the rest of his over/under and storms out. "If you weren't so damned incompetent, I'd send you to rot on the Quad. Hell."

Give him the watch

"Yeah!" he pumps his fist in the air and takes the watch. "This is it! Thanks!"

He stares at it, reading the inscription on the back for a moment, then polishes it up and puts it in his pocket. "Alright, cool, I've gotta run soon, but here's the deal. In the VIP room, there's a guy named Hawk. He's got the Eye tattooed on him… which doesn't help in the VIP room, I guess. He also doesn't wear shades. You'll find him, just ask around. I'll put in the good word for you."

(and, if Dr. Amundsen is still in the boiler room)
He slams his over/under. "Cool? Cool. Alright, I gotta guard some crazy lady in the labs basement with Saber. I'm already late for my shift, but I'll call Hawk on the way so he knows you're coming."

(otherwise)
He slams his over/under. "Cool? Cool. I gotta go, making deliveries."

Stand back

Toss him the watch

You've earned 2 XP in Will

Rush him

(Fight Third eye ganger)

Naw, not yet

He nods. "Naw, it's cool, he's a slippery little bastard. Just heard you got him out on the Quad. Come back when you found that watch."
