Context: Feros: The Thorian: these squadmate remarks would happen while in the ExoGeni building.
Speakers:
- Kaidan Alenko (squad-dependent)
- Urdnot Wrex (squad-dependent)
- Liara T'Soni (squad-dependent)
- Garrus Vakarian (squad-dependent)
- Ashley Williams (squad-dependent)
- Tali'Zorah nar Rayya (squad-dependent)
(Arriving in the containment lab)
Tali: This is interesting, Shepard. A containment lab of some kind.
Kaidan: What do you make of this, Commander? Looks like a containment lab.
Ashley: What is this, Commander? A containment lab?
Liara: They appear to have grappled through some sort of containment lab.
Garrus: Seems like a containment lab of sorts, Commander.
Kaidan: We find a way to break even one claw and that ship is out of here.
Ashley: Whatever. We just need to find a way to break even one claw and that ship is out of here.
Liara: It is an asset we lacked at the other claws. Dislodge even one claw and that ship will fall.
Garrus: It may be helpful. If we can dislodge even one claw the ship may fall.
Wrex: It's no armory, but tear up even one claw and that ship is gone.
(Examining the gate pressure device)
Tali: Not much force across the whole system. Is there some way to isolate it on a single door?
Kaidan: Pretty weak across the whole system. Any way to isolate it on a single door?
Ashley: Weak as hell across the whole system. Can we isolate it on a single door?
Liara: Force is dissipated across the whole system. Perhaps it can be concentrated?
Garrus: It seems that force is dissipated across the system. Perhaps there is a way to isolate it?

All text was copied accurately, and any typos or errors are verbatim.
Context: Feros: The Thorian: this squadmate interjection would occur on the way out of the ExoGeni building, before meeting up with Elizabeth Baynham.
Speakers:
- Kaidan Alenko (squad-dependent)
- Liara T'Soni (squad-dependent)
- Garrus Vakarian (squad-dependent)
- Ashley Williams (squad-dependent)
- Tali'Zorah nar Rayya (squad-dependent)
Kaidan: Lizbeth must have run when the power dropped. Let's follow her lead and find the exit.
Ashley: Lizbeth must have run when the power dropped. Finding an exit sounds good.
Liara: Young Lizbeth must have run when the power fell. We should follow her lead and find an exit.
Garrus: Lizbeth must have run for an exit when the power dropped.
Tali: Lizbeth probably ran for the exit when the power fell and the fields dropped.
war40_heajeong[]
Note: this dialogue was retranscribed directly from the dialogue file Mass Effect\BioGame\CookedPC\Packages\Dialog\WAR40\war40_heajeong_D.upk or Mass Effect Legendary Edition\Game\ME1\BioGame\CookedPCConsole\BIOA_WAR40_06_DSG_LOC_INT.pcc, where it was made non-functional, despite audio being present. All text was copied accurately, and any typos or errors are verbatim.
Context: Feros: The Thorian: during the confrontation with Ethan Jeong, the option "Just pay them off", marked as an "Intimidate" persuasion check, is more or less technically functional. However, since the game can only display one "Intimidate" option at a time, it is never accessible in-game since the other one, "I'll kill you first", will always be displayed prioritarily. Making it accessible again reveals that this option functions properly for the rest of the game, and even transfers correctly to Mass Effect 2 with the appropriate outcome during Illium: Medical Scans.
Speakers:
(The beginning of the dialogue has been omitted)
Elizabeth Baynham: It's a telepathic life-form living under Zhu's Hope. It's taking control of the colonists there. ExoGeni knew all along.
Juliana Baynham: You won't get away with this, Jeong.
Ethan Jeong: So you keep saying. But nobody's going to miss a few colonists.
(This option is only selectable if the player has at least 12 in Charm)
Shepard: Can't you see the inherent potential in this colony? Think of the promotional opportunities!
Ethan Jeong: Opportunities? What the hell are you talking about?
(The rest of this conversation has been omitted since it is present in the game)
(This option is only selectable if the player has at least 6 in Intimidate)
Shepard: Pay them. Give them passage off this world and be done with it.
Ethan Jeong: But if word gets out about the Thorian.... How do I know they'll stay quiet?
The above would trigger LE1.CH2_Feros.The_Company_Man.Set_RENEGADE_True,
and would grant 25 Renegade points.
Shepard: They lose even more if they talk. Besides, there's no real crime to report if you let them go.
Elizabeth Baynham: I won't shut up! I'll talk about it to anyone who will listen!
Ethan Jeong: Then you'd be the first one to go to prison. Your signature's on half the Thorian reports.
Elizabeth Baynham: But-- But it's not fair. Not after everything.
Shepard: If they talk, they lose everything for no reason at all. They'll stay quiet.
Elizabeth Baynham: I won't shut up! I'll talk about it to anyone who will listen!
Ethan Jeong: Then you'd be the first one to go to prison. Your signature's on half the Thorian reports.
Elizabeth Baynham: But-- But it's not fair. Not after everything.
Shepard: Make the offer sweet enough and they'll take it. And they won't risk losing it all just to talk.
Elizabeth Baynham: I won't shut up! I'll talk about it to anyone who will listen!
Ethan Jeong: Then you'd be the first one to go to prison. Your signature's on half the Thorian reports.
Elizabeth Baynham: But-- But it's not fair. Not after everything.
Shepard: This isn't so bad. At least you have your life. You can start over anywhere.
Elizabeth Baynham: I guess that's all that matters now.
Ethan Jeong: For this to work, there can't be any evidence. The infected colonists need to disappear.
Juliana Baynham: You can't just kill the colonists. It's not their fault.
Elizabeth Baynham: If you kill only the Thorian, it might be enough to stop the infection. Maybe.
Shepard: Let's get this over with.
Elizabeth Baynham: Take the money and run. It seems like that's all anyone cares about.
Ethan Jeong: For this to work, there can't be any evidence. The infected colonists need to disappear.
Juliana Baynham: You can't just kill the colonists. It's not their fault.
Elizabeth Baynham: If you kill only the Thorian, it might be enough to stop the infection. Maybe.
Shepard: Life isn't fair, Lizbeth. It's about time you realized that.
Elizabeth Baynham: Take the money and run. It seems like that's all anyone cares about.
Ethan Jeong: For this to work, there can't be any evidence. The infected colonists need to disappear.
Juliana Baynham: You can't just kill the colonists. It's not their fault.
Elizabeth Baynham: If you kill only the Thorian, it might be enough to stop the infection. Maybe.
Shepard: It's worth a try, but I don't know if I can avoid harming the colonists.
Elizabeth Baynham: There has to be another way.
Juliana Baynham: Maybe there is. Come and talk to me before you leave, Commander.
Ethan Jeong: Just make sure there's no evidence when you're done.
Shepard: Good plan. Except that the colonists stand between me and the Thorian.
Elizabeth Baynham: There has to be another way.
Juliana Baynham: Maybe there is. Come and talk to me before you leave, Commander.
Ethan Jeong: Just make sure there's no evidence when you're done.
Shepard: Anything hostile will be eliminated.
Elizabeth Baynham: There has to be another way.
Juliana Baynham: Maybe there is. Come and talk to me before you leave, Commander.
Ethan Jeong: Just make sure there's no evidence when you're done.
Shepard: I won't let you hurt these people any more. Drop your weapon or be prepared to use it!
Ethan Jeong: If that's the way it has to be, then come on!
The above triggers LE1.CH2_Feros.The_Company_Man.Set_GOOD_True.
Shepard: You've gone way too far. This ends now.
Ethan Jeong: If that's the way it has to be, then come on!
The above triggers LE1.CH2_Feros.The_Company_Man.Set_GOOD_True.
Shepard: You've gone way too far. This ends now.
Ethan Jeong: If that's the way it has to be, then come on!
The above triggers LE1.CH2_Feros.The_Company_Man.Set_GOOD_True.

Speakers:
Juliana Baynham: I know you made a deal with Jeong, but there's a better way.
Shepard: What did you have in mind?
Juliana Baynham: I think you could safely use a nerve agent to neutralize the colonists.
Elizabeth Baynham: Like a gas grenade!
(The rest of the conversation has been omitted)
Shepard: I'm listening.
Juliana Baynham: I think you could safely use a nerve agent to neutralize the colonists.
Elizabeth Baynham: Like a gas grenade!

war20_trigger (3)[]
Note: these voicelines were retranscribed directly from the dialogue file Mass Effect\BioGame\CookedPC\Packages\Dialog\WAR20\war20_trigger_D.upk or Mass Effect Legendary Edition\Game\ME1\BioGame\CookedPCConsole\BIOA_WAR40_11_DSG_LOC_INT.pcc, where they were made non-functional, despite audio being present. All text was copied accurately, and any typos or errors are verbatim.
Context: Feros: The Thorian: this squadmate remark would occur as the player is clearing Zhu's Hope of its infected colonists.
Speakers:
- Kaidan Alenko (squad-dependent)
- Liara T'Soni (squad-dependent)
- Garrus Vakarian (squad-dependent)
- Ashley Williams (squad-dependent)
- Tali'Zorah nar Rayya (squad-dependent)
Kaidan: They're definitely bunkered around the Borealis. We've gotta move one of its cargo blocks once we're topside.
Ashley: Yeah, they're bunkered around the Borealis up there. We've got to move one of its cargo blocks once we're topside.
Liara: The colonists are clustered around the Borealis. It may be difficult to move one of its cargo blocks.
Garrus: They are definitely bunkered around the Borealis. We've got to move one of its cargo blocks once we're topside.
Tali: They are bunkered around the Borealis. We'll have to move one of its cargo blocks once we're topside.
war00_joker[]
Note: these voicelines were retranscribed directly from the unused dialogue file Mass Effect\BioGame\CookedPC\Packages\Dialog\WAR20\war00_joker_D.upk, despite audio being present in the Legendary Edition. All text was copied accurately, and any typos or errors are verbatim.
Context: Feros: The Thorian: Joker would transmit this voiceline over the comms when returning to Zhu's Hope.
Speaker:
Joker: I've got you incoming, Commander. FYI, so do the locals. And they are pissed! Out.
war30_trig_01_entry[]
Note: this dialogue was retranscribed directly from the dialogue file Mass Effect\BioGame\CookedPC\Packages\Dialog\WAR20\war30_trig_01_entry_D.upk or Mass Effect Legendary Edition\Game\ME1\BioGame\CookedPCConsole\BIOA_WAR30_02F_DSG_LOC_INT.pcc, where it was made non-functional, despite audio being present. All text was copied accurately, and any typos or errors are verbatim.
Context: Feros: The Thorian: this dialogue would play right before coming face to face with the Thorian, under Zhu's Hope. The conditional associated with it, "CH2_Feros.The_Company_Man.Combined_Bad", implies this would have played if a negative outcome awaited the colony. However, since it was made into a lower priority than the regular dialogue (that goes along the lines of "We just need to find this thing and...") which itself has no conditions, it never plays in-game. The transcription below is accurate.
Speakers:
- Kaidan Alenko (squad-dependent)
- Liara T'Soni (squad-dependent)
- Garrus Vakarian (squad-dependent)
- Ashley Williams (squad-dependent)
- Tali'Zorah nar Rayya (squad-dependent)
Tali: That is the cutting for the assayer. Now we just have to.... Keelah, what is that?
Kaidan: Okay, we have the cutting for the assayer. Now we just have to... we just have to.... What... is that?
Ashley: Okay, that's the cutting for the assayer. Now we just have to... we just have to.... What the hell is that?
Liara: I have the cutting for the assayer. All that remains is... is to... oh my. That is... disturbing.
Garrus: I have the cutting the ExoGeni assayer wanted. Now we just have to... we just have to.... This was not covered by my training manuals.
Shepard: That does not look like any plant I've ever seen. This may be... problematic.
Shepard: We are going to need bigger guns.
Shepard: Nothing's ever simple, is it?

All text was copied accurately, and any typos or errors are verbatim.
Context: Feros: The Thorian: these combat voicelines of Shiala's clone would play during her fights around the Thorian.
Speaker:
- Clone of Shiala
Asari Clone: This flesh is reborn! You will be destroyed!
Asari Clone: The Old Growth is older than you can fathom!
Asari Clone: The Long Cycle must continue!
Asari Clone: You are nothing! Nutrients to feed upon!

All text was copied accurately, and any typos or errors are verbatim.
Context: Feros: The Thorian: these ambient interjections would trigger while battling the Thorian.

- Kaidan Alenko (squad-dependent)
- Liara T'Soni (squad-dependent)
- Garrus Vakarian (squad-dependent)
- Ashley Williams (squad-dependent)
- Tali'Zorah nar Rayya (squad-dependent)
Tali: We must find a weak spot on the creature before more copies of the asari show up!
Kaidan: We need to find a weak spot on this thing before more of those copies show up.
Ashley: I've had it with these plant-people, Commander. Find me a weak spot on this thing.
Liara: We need to find a weak spot on this thing before more of those copies show up.
Garrus: We need to find a weak spot on this thing before more of those copies show up.
(Associated with conditional CH2_Feros.Frontier_Lost.Henchmen_Lines.Player_shoots_Thorian)
Liara: It appears the Thorian has gained my compatriot's biotic abilities in addition to her voice.
Kaidan: Looks like it learned a few [[biotic[[ tricks from that commando.

All text was copied accurately, and any typos or errors are verbatim.
Context: Feros: The Thorian: if the inaccessible option "Just pay them off" was used with Ethan Jeong, Juliana Baynham has this voiceline when talking to her again in Zhu's Hope after the Thorian was defeated.
Speaker:
Juliana Baynham: Thank you. I appreciate that you went out of your way to at least secure us some kind of future. It's too bad, but I guess it couldn't be helped. Sometimes you have to just walk away.

All text was copied accurately, and any typos or errors are verbatim.
Context: Feros: The Thorian: the colonists would have these ambient remarks if Shepard interacted with them after the Thorian is defeated, depending on the fate of Zhu's Hope.
Speakers:
- Unnamed Feros colonist 1
- Unnamed Feros colonist 2
- Unnamed Feros colonist 3
- Unnamed Feros colonist 4
(Colonist 1)
Colonist: Feros can survive. Especially now that we're free again.
Colonist: That plant took my mind, but you made sure it will never happen again. Nothing will stop this colony.
Colonist: Feros is ours again. We'll make sure it stays that way.
Colonist: We were forced to serve that... that plant, but now we have a chance to make this world our home.
(Colonist 2)
Colonist: Feros is ours again. It will be good to get back to business.
Colonist: I can think for myself again! It's like getting a second chance.
Colonist: We'll show the frontier what we are made of.
Colonist: You're good at this survival stuff. Guess that's what made you famous.
Colonist: Who'd have thought we'd get a war hero on our side?
Colonist: I'm surprised you saved this place. Not exactly what you're known for.
(Colonist 3)
Colonist: It'll be good to get back to normal problems.
Colonist: You don't live on the frontier if you can't handle some bruises, I guess.
Colonist: We might have a chance now, thanks to you.
Colonist: I hope the rough times are over.
Colonist: If Macha can restore the water, the colony may actually make a go of it.
Colonist: Thirst is the biggest threat against us now.
(Colonist 4)
Colonist: We'll show the galaxy we can't be beaten so easily.
Colonist: We have a chance to make something here after all, no thanks to Colonial Affairs and ExoGeni.
Colonist: It'll take some time, but we'll make this a home.
Colonist: It takes a survivor to show us how it's done, I guess. Thanks, Shepard.
Colonist: I thought you hero types were all talk. Glad I was wrong.
Colonist: Glad you found a way to save this place. I know you aren't shy about tough decisions.
(Colonist 1)
Colonist: I'm sorry I ever came here. We need to rethink pushing colonies on the frontier.
Colonist: Earth needs to step back from colonies like this if they won't back us up with heavy weapons.
Colonist: I'm getting the hell off this rock.
Colonist: I guess we fared better than some places. Nobody wants another Akuze.
Colonist: This isn't the Blitz. You can't always save the day.
Colonist: I guess we fared better than some places. Nobody wants another Torfan.
Colonist: I'm through with Feros. There's no reason to stay here.
Colonist: Thanks for freeing us. We're getting the hell out while we can.
Colonist: I'm going back to Earth on the next available ship.
Colonist: If I ever come back, it'll be behind a mass driver the size of Titan.
(Colonist 3)
Colonist: No point in staying here now. Everything was against us from the start.
Colonist: I'll be glad to get out of here.
Colonist: What a waste of our efforts.
Colonist: Thanks for saving us, even if the colony is going under.
(Colonist 4)
Colonist: I've had it with this place. I'm counting myself lucky to get out with my life.
Colonist: Only a fool would stay here after what we have been through.
Colonist: Building a colony here was foolish from the start.
Colonist: No need to tell me twice. Feros is dead, and I'm not staying for the funeral.
