Part 3 of the walkthrough of Deus Ex: Invisible War for the PC.
Transcript
00:00Ah, Alex D. Chief Morgan has had a lot to say about you.
00:07I haven't had the chance to talk to her yet.
00:09Then be sure you talk to Chief Morgan as soon as you can.
00:12She's in Europe right now, but she'll address you from the Holocom in her office.
00:16Go up the stairs, hang a right, and look for the management wing on your left.
00:21The WTO could really use an agent like you, and we could offer you a kind of mobility no one else can.
00:26What do you mean?
00:27As you know, after the collapse, it was the WTO that started putting the pieces together,
00:32creating safe, clean, profitable enclaves, and opening up and regulating trade between them.
00:37With this web of structures in place globally, we can offer an agent many opportunities in many locations.
00:44The WTO does some admirable work, but couldn't it lead to the same kind of over-centralization
00:48that made the world so vulnerable to the collapse in the first place?
00:51Far from it. We're encouraging relations between the enclaves, not complete mergers.
00:56We want to keep competition dynamic and individuality vibrant.
00:59They're all good intentions.
01:01You could be a part of it.
01:02Your fellow student from Tarsus, Clara Sparks, has already accepted a position here.
01:06Think about it.
01:07I told you, we can't trust Tarsus more than WTO.
01:15You really should come to our church and hear what the Orc has to say.
01:18Her Holiness will open your eyes.
01:20May she watch over you.
01:20I cannot believe these delays today.
01:37You are to adhere to the air terminal security policies.
01:40Please refer to section 407-23 of your fieldman, the Seattle WTO air terminal.
02:07Attention. All Algon flights have been delayed.
02:10Please see the flight monitors for more information.
02:13At least one trainee besides me reported to the authorities.
02:16Have you seen Leo?
02:17No, but I've heard from Billy.
02:19She seems to be mixed up with the Order Church.
02:21They can do what they want, I guess.
02:23I can't believe it. Tarsus is a front.
02:25After all those years of training.
02:27What's going on back there?
02:29A suspicious helicopter was circling the city.
02:31Fortunately, both the pilot and the aircraft are now in WTO custody.
02:35Order reconnaissance?
02:36The pilot will be interrogated.
02:38I shouldn't tell you more than that.
02:40So you're on the WTO payroll now, huh?
02:42I'm just glad I didn't have a reaction to whatever the Tarsus people were shooting into our veins.
02:46And now I've got a security assignment.
02:48That's all I ever wanted from that place.
03:06Chief Morgan, you wanted to see me?
03:13I want to hear what you know about the terrorist attack that led to your escape from Tarsus Academy.
03:18The Order wanted to stop the experiment.
03:20That's about all I know.
03:21We were watching that facility ourselves.
03:23Ever heard of an organization codenamed Apostle Call?
03:26Sounds like a cult.
03:27Apostle Call made your biomods.
03:29I'm not blaming you, but the technology diverges wildly from piezo-chem biomods, the only ones approved for sale.
03:35You're investigating this Apostle Call for patent infringement?
03:38Market disruption.
03:39The genius of the Apostle Call product is that it restructures any host DNA to tolerate biomodification, whereas the standard infusions work for only 1 in 20 patients.
03:48Apostle Call could go commercial and devastate biomod prices.
03:51In other words, you want modified people to hold their value like real estate?
03:55We simply want to avoid a price shock.
03:58So far, our most promising intel on your former employer points to a possible smuggling operation with Seattle's Minister of Culture, who lives in an Emerald Suites penthouse.
04:06Penthouse? Nice.
04:07You see where this is going?
04:09The Minister should be out this time of night, living it up at Club Fox.
04:12And you want me to break into the place?
04:14Show us what you can do, Alex.
04:16With Tarsus gone, maybe a position with WTO security would appeal to you.
04:25What about the situation in the Inclinator?
04:40Still unresolved. Our people have the area closed to pedestrians.
04:45Please accept the sincere apologies of Standard Security.
04:48Our people should have screened out the terrorists at the lower Seattle entrance.
04:52I'm not blaming you personally.
04:55I'm the one who has to face the music, especially given the Chicago situation.
05:02I have to admit, there's been some talk here of replacing SSC security guards with WTO military.
05:07I expect there will be some fallout.
05:08Just wanted to let you know that we have the situation in hand.
05:17What do you want? I'm busy.
05:19Sorry.
05:19If you're asking about the Inclinator, I don't know.
05:23Some sort of toxic spill. We're on it.
05:24Actually, I...
05:25If you're worried about the terrorist attack, don't be. WTO security did its job.
05:29The Order Church won't try something like that again.
05:31I'm sure you have everything under control.
05:34And don't make me file another complaint about corruption.
05:36I'm up to my ears in corruption.
05:38Smugglers. Dodgy business owners.
05:40Meanwhile, half of lower Seattle banging on the walls wanting citizenship in this suit.
05:43I just came by to talk to Chief Morgan.
05:45Oh, you're the guy with covert ops training?
05:47You want to make my day? Bring me the balance sheet for that dive nightclub.
05:50Vox. Down at the end of the block.
05:52One of those dodgy business owners?
05:54Tax evasion, I'm pretty sure.
05:56That small-time Chief probably keeps his books in his office on the second floor.
05:59Bring me hard evidence against Vox, and I'll hand over a generous citizens bonus.
06:02How's that?
06:04We've had three nightclubs on that spot in less than a year.
06:06Fronts. All of them.
06:36Come back and tell me what you'll find out.
06:57Something didn't add up quite right on last night's shipment.
07:02Yeah, it seemed like the paperwork was kind of odd on that one.
07:05They shuffled it back to the Flight Bay 24 storage room so quickly.
07:09They said it was for someone who wanted his shipment and privacy protected.
07:12Ha. I never trust those late-night deliverers.
07:16George wasn't even around to sign for it.
07:18The more you talk about it, the more I think we should look into it.
07:20Someone's probably trying to get around WTO import regulations again.
07:35They said it was for you to find the way.
07:46So, they went for a few hours.
07:48You reminded me of what you knew.
07:55How?
07:56Seek a higher path. Seek order. Join us for worship at the Hartford Tournament Chapter 4.
08:26Welcome to Club Vox. We've got the latest NG Resonance Sim, the best music, and even a VIP club for your more private exchanges. You can pay the cover for the main club here.
08:39What's so great about this club anyway?
08:41Besides the usual offerings, we've got the latest NG Sim on the second floor. The owner usually hangs out up there where he can watch everything. If you need more privacy than the ground floor can offer, you might ask him about the VIP club. The stairs are on the right just after you enter.
08:55Thanks.
09:01Welcome to Club Vox. We've got the latest NG Resonance Sim, the best music, and even a VIP club for your more private exchanges. You can pay the cover for the main club here.
09:12There you go.
09:13Have fun.
09:25Welcome to Club Vox.
09:43Club Vox.
09:44Greetings. You are in close proximity to an entity of great interest to the Omar, the cadaver of an unusual mutant. We are interested in the properties of the mutant's tissues. Please locate the biometric report. We will upload the data through your infolink interface. End of proposal.
10:03Lunch定.

10:32A discount will be applied to all of your business transactions with our agents in Seattle.
10:45All my agents can be found at the Globvox VIP suite and on the streets of Lower Seattle.
11:02I'm going to go to the next one.
11:32Let's go.
12:02Hey there!
12:05Quite an uninhibited young fellow, aren't you?
12:08What do you mean?
12:10I saw you looking at me from across the room, and then you walked right over.
12:13How nice.
12:14Ever since I became the Enclave's Minister of Culture, most people treat me with a certain... chilly deference.
12:20I'm new to Seattle. I didn't know who you were.
12:23Oh, well that explains it then.
12:24I have a couple of drinks here every night, and every night I go home to an empty penthouse.
12:29Well, I'm sorry, but if you're looking for someone to, uh...
12:32Hush, hush. Let an old man have his pleasant thoughts.
12:35Would you do me a favor?
12:36What's that?
12:38Tell that gentleman at the table over there that I'd like to invite him to my penthouse to discuss his sculptures over a glass of sherry.
12:44Why don't you tell him yourself?
12:46I don't know. I just freeze up whenever I try to mix business and pleasure.
12:49Hi there.
12:59Well, hello.
13:01Just wanted to let you know that the man at the bar, Seattle's Minister of Culture, would like to invite you to his penthouse to talk about your sculptures.
13:07Oh, I know quite well who the minister is, and how he likes to do business.
13:10I've been trying to catch his eye. Tell him I'll meet him at his penthouse in about an hour.
13:14No problem.
13:15Are you his new chamber boy?
13:17Uh, not exactly.
13:18Hmm, too bad.
13:23What is the little sprout's answer?
13:26He said he'd meet you at your penthouse in an hour.
13:28You seem disappointed that I'm not your new chamber boy.
13:31Would you like to be?
13:33Very funny. You know you don't seem very shy to me.
13:36I'm serious. I could give you the key to my back stairwell.
13:39You could have drinks and hors d'oeuvres ready before we arrive.
13:43I would love to be your chamber boy.
13:45How precious. Why couldn't you waltz into my life sooner?
13:48You sure you don't want to be alone with the sculptor?
13:51Trust me, three is never a crowd.
13:53Now, chop chop. Here's the key to the back stairwell of my penthouse.
13:57Stay in the kitchen till I arrive, but we'll take offense.
14:00I live at the Emerald Suites.
14:01You can get to the hotel's lobby from the upper sidewalk.
14:03Everything satisfactory, young man? I am the owner.
14:21Just taking a look around.
14:23Pardon the intrusion, but you look modified, am I right?
14:26My cousin used to run a clinic.
14:27What do you want to know?
14:28Just a small security matter.
14:31I've had trouble finding reliable protection.
14:33You see, one of my VIP club members is being framed by a lawyer living in the Emerald Suites.
14:37What's the lawyer say the club member did?
14:39The charges are pure fabrication. It doesn't matter.
14:42The lawyer is one Kevin O'Rourke.
14:44He lives in Suite 2226.
14:46To be blunt, I want him dead.
14:48You're asking me to murder an Enclave citizen?
14:50Tell his bodyguard that you're handling the SMG shipment for an armed smuggler named David Kurzak.
14:55That'll get you inside the apartment.
14:56Do this, and I will pay you a handsome reward, plus a VIP membership.
15:01Repeat anything I just said, however, and you will join Mr. O'Rourke in a long trip to Lower Seattle from the Space Needle Overlook.
15:07Thank you for choosing Club Fox.
15:14Hi, I'm NG Resonance. What would you like to talk about?
15:18I'm Bud Puckett. Remember me?
15:22Bud, it's been three days. How was your date?
15:25Uh, I don't know.
15:29Come on, buddy. Fill me in. Did you hit it off?
15:33Not really. That so-called dating service ripped me off.
15:38Tell me about the young woman.
15:42Well, first of all, she wasn't young.
15:45Hey, NG. I have a question.
15:47Yes?
15:47I know you're just software. You probably have holocomps all over the world.
15:55We'll have more fun if you pretend I'm NG.
15:59But, I was wondering, does the real NG ever see these conversations, like watch recordings or anything?
16:04Sure. Didn't she look at you?
16:09Yeah?
16:12Yes, I love my fans.
16:15Hi, NG. I hope you're listening. I'd like to meet you for real sometime.
16:20Of course I'm listening. Don't be silly.
16:22I'm Bud Puckett. I live in Upper Seattle.
16:27Call me sometime. Maybe next time you're in town, okay?
16:37She's all yours.
16:38Hi, I'm NG. Redness. What would you like to talk about?
16:45You must know everybody in the club.
16:47Let's talk about you.
16:49Tell me about Bud Puckett.
16:50I like Bud. He's one of my biggest fans.
16:53Lots of bouncers in here. Are they really necessary?
16:55Every society has rules.
16:57But armed guards at a nightclub?
16:59A business can prosper without protection against crime.
17:05Hi, I'm NG. Redness. What would you like to talk about?
17:08Know anything about the WTO guards at the bar?
17:10The defense of commercial districts has been the key to economic recovery since the collapse.
17:15I guess you're not a disciple of the Order.
17:17I love nature as much as her holiness.
17:19But nature builds and creates.
17:21Perhaps the Order is sincere, but they have a public relations battle to win.
17:27Hi, I'm NG. Redness. What would you like to talk about?
17:30What about the VIP area? What goes on back there?
17:33WTO security would like to know the same thing.
17:35They'd like evidence for a search warrant.
17:37You know an awful lot about police business.
17:40Like you said, I talk to everyone.
17:41If you learn what goes on there, please inform me.
17:47Hi, I'm NG. Redness. What would you like to talk about?
17:50I'm Bud Puckett. Remember me?
17:51The chances of you finding a bug in a globally distributed AI construct are 10 billion to one.
17:58Hi, I'm NG. Redness. What would you like to talk about?
18:01I like your music.
18:03I think you're lying.
18:04Hey, I'm a fan. You're not supposed to argue with me.
18:07I'm supposed to make you like me. You like it when I argue.
18:12Do tell me if you learn anything about the VIP area.
18:15Do tell me they're lying.
18:28Do tell me if I'm not supposed to be that.
18:31My god is weird, my god is here, my god makes up for the future
19:01I can't stand it, I can't stand it though
19:31Hey!
19:39Don't go!
19:49I'm good!
19:53Pursuing centered lock.
19:54Incomplete data.
20:02Pursuit impossible.
20:06The transgenic tissue scan you recovered from the basement is already producing improvements in Omar's survivability.
20:13Glad I can help.
20:15Omar, adaptations will soon encompass every climate and biohazard on Earth, and many more environments that may exist elsewhere.
20:23You have earned preferred customer status, a 50% reduction in prices.
20:29That's very generous. What's the Omar's objective? Space exploration? Or was that thing in the basement?
20:34The Omar are an application of anagenetic evolution to rapid environmental change.
20:40In solving the problem of survival on a planet disrupted by wars and self-replicating hazards, we have solved other problems.
20:48The specimen you examined was a similar attempt to solve these problems.
20:53Who made it?
20:54A failed corporation named VersaLife. The Omar have learned much from the VersaLife laboratories abandoned after the collapse. Shall we conduct business?
21:04That's my only reward? A discount?
21:07Very well. In addition, you will be given one black market biomod canister.
21:12Thanks. What are you selling?
21:14I have a ballistic silencer. Appropriate for any caliber barrel. Also, a black market biomod canister. Enables non-piezo-chem functionality. I also have an SMG machine gun. As a preferred customer, you may purchase items at half market price.
21:37Maybe later.
21:38Very well. I expect compliance.
22:07That's a quick-direction.
22:22A captain.
22:25Hey, Su!
22:28Hey, Su!
22:30Hey, Su!
22:33Hey, Su!
22:36You
23:06I'll see you next time.
23:36I don't know.
24:06Good work! You found the financial data that the Enclave Civic Manager is interested in. Evidence of tax evasion, I bet. I'm sure he would be happy to give you a citizen's bonus if you reported the information to him at the WTO terminal.
24:36Good work!
24:43I don't know what to do, but I don't know what to do.
25:13Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
25:43Oh, oh, oh, oh.
26:13No business.
26:17Give me the Biomod canister.
26:19I appreciate your business.
26:43I appreciate your business.
26:47I appreciate your business.
26:49Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
26:55Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
27:01Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
