Greg on Watch Your Step

First meeting remark

Hey, welcome back from the dead. I was
wondering why you weren't around when I
showed up. Is everybody else dead? I
thought so.

everybody
I think everybody's dead. You're the last
hope. You've got to find the bomb and
detonate it.

bomb
I hid the bomb inside one of those exploding
pods directly south of here, right before I
died. Somehow it just enveloped it, without
blowing up.

pods
I think the pods are triggered by heat, which
is why the bomb- or the monsters for that
matter- don't set them off.

monsters
Spiders. They're everywhere. Can't stand
'em.

name

This is Greg, dude. I guess maybe it's hard
to recognize me in this state, that's ok.

death

Those spider things were all around me, but
I didn't stop firing until I ran out of bullets.
Then something hit me like a dish washer-
it must have been one of those zombies.

spider
Spiders. They're everywhere. Can't stand
'em.

dish (or) washer

Yeah, like a dish washer dropped from three
stories or something. I don't even remember
getting hit before that. I was spanking them
until I died.

zombies

Man, I hate those zombie things. You've got
to nail them as soon as they appear to stop
them from causing an earthquake. They can
use that power even when they can't see
you, so watch out.

earthquake
Yeah, like a dish washer dropped from three
stories or something. I don't even remember
getting hit before that. I was spanking them
until I died.

Steven

Steven changed the code after you were lost,
but I never knew what it was. Did you find
Steven? Did he tell you?

John (or) Ed

I think everybody's dead. You're the last
hope. You've got to find the bomb and
detonate it.

radio (or) beacon

I don't have a beacon. I got cut off from the
rest of the group two levels ago, and they
had all three. I hope you found one, you'll
need it.

Ninjas

Ninjas, too. They're everywhere.

Street (or) Fighter

Man, I'll never get to play Street Fighter
again. But Jason always beat me after I got
that big bruise on my brain, so I guess it's
no big loss.


Any word that doesn't trigger a new conversation will elicit the following replies:

Say that again?

I don't understand what you mean.

You're not making any sense.


Additional Notes

Without prior knowledge it's unlikely that you would have asked Greg about "Ninjas" or "Street Fighter". In a comp.sys.mac.games post in Feb '94, Jason Jones told people about the "Street Fighter" trigger.

Greg's first meeting remark appears odd:

Hey, welcome back from the dead. I was
wondering why you weren't around when I
showed up. Is everybody else dead? I
thought so.

The line "I was wondering why you weren't around when I showed up" doesn't seem to make sense. Perhaps he is referring to the afterlife. When Greg died he expected to see you since he believes you died in the fall. But then he goes on to say "Is everybody else dead?". So wherever Greg is... he's on his own. Too bad. :-(

Greg will not respond to the names Jason, Sean, or Darren.

There is no second meeting remark associated with Greg.
