Sam Waste of quality ammunition.
28240384
Sam I should use hollow points for that.
30283776
Sam I'd better not, I might hit it.
32184704
Sam I have so many other things to shoot.
Generic failure messages for Sam's Big Gun. The final game just lets Sam shoot at stuff willy-nilly unless that object has a specific failure message.
30401024
Sam I don't want to bring that to tears.
A similar failure message for the Tear Gas Grenade Launcher which, like the Big Gun, can generally be fired with reckless abandon.
31966720
Max Hey, don't point that at me!
31966848
Max Take it easy!
31966976
Max Watch it!
32048768
Max Hey!
31967104
Max Whoa!
31969408
Max Are you crazy?!
31967232
Max Sam!
31967360
Max Yikes!
32045824
Max Two can play at that game!
32047232
Max Shoot some other sap.
A bunch of responses for pointing the Big Gun at Max. The final game doesn't have any response for this particular situation, probably because it's too easy to accidentally trigger.
31790080
Sam That's exactly the sort of thing Max would have thought of.
Failure message for using any object on any other object while Sam is in "Rescue Max" mode. The generic "I've got to rescue Max!" messages take priority over this one, so it never triggers. This was later re-added in the Remasters, but into the general "Rescue Max" pool.
31839232
Sam I've got to find an antenna somewhere!
While Sam is looking for an antenna, he's supposed to give this response after clicking on any generic object, but again, the "I've got to rescue Max!" messages antecede this one.
32117632
Sam Mmm, I'll need something much smaller for an antenna.
Another antenna-searching message, though this one isn't referenced by any of the game's CHORE files, so it's not really certain what object would prompt this message.
31612928
Sam Pack your toothbrush and razor wire, little buddy, we're off to Volcano Island! The locals need our help with some mangy corporate defiler types.
31613056
Max You mean like recipes?
31613184
Sam No, like wanton physical violence and disjointed but insightful commentary.
31613312
Max My favorite! I'll get the colorful glucose snacks!
31613440
Sam I'd better bring my banjo, just in case a hoedown breaks out. Or down. Whichever way a hoedown breaks.
31613568
Max Up, I hope. Hey Sam, are we going to interrogate anybody while we're there? Please say yes.
31613696
Sam Holy two-timing tap dancers stomping sour mash in a mink-lined arthropod trap, what IS that?!
31613824
Max I call it the mega-taser. I made it myself! By the way, we need a new car battery.
31613952
Sam You crack me up, little buddy.
A very strange conversation that doesn't really fit anywhere in the game and isn't referenced in any of the game's CHORE files. It almost seems like an audition or Machinima short script than anything else.

Office

30236416
Max Maybe I can make the phone ring with the power of my personal color spectrum, like that guy on TV!
30236544
Max Ring, phone! Ring, ring, ring!
30236672
Sam Careful you don't pop an eyeball. I spent our insurance premiums on candy cigarettes and ammo.
30236800
Max Hey, try this!
Extra dialogue for the intro that would play after Sam & Max notice the phone has been stolen, but before they find out who stole it.
30238208
Sam It's signed "Your worst nightmare".
The last part of Jimmy's letter isn't read out loud in the final script.
30441984
Sam Any luck trying to win Carl Kasell's voice for the answering machine, Max?
30442112
Max Not yet. I blame the malevolent forces of darkness.
Alternate dialogue for the answering machine referencing NPR's Wait Wait, Don't Tell Me, which offered the voice of radio personality Carl Kasell as a prize.
30425088
Jimmy Get lost!
Trying to click on the rat hole after getting the phone back should prompt this response for Jimmy, but it doesn't.
30392832
Sam Hm. Nothing but static.
30392960
Max That's OK. I like static!
Early in the game's development, the antenna / Coat Hanger was one of the first items the player could acquire. In the final game, Sam can only take the antenna after Max has been kidnapped.

This dialogue would play when clicking on the TV after taking the Coat Hanger.

30779136
Sam It's why television was invented.
Deleted response to Max's line, "I love shows that destroy all our cherished illusions about the stars we once loved.", as Sam & Max watch the first part of the documentary.
32113152
Sam Mmm, close, but not quite antenna-y enough.
Should play after clicking on the Dartboard while Sam is in antenna-searching mode, but again, the "Gotta rescue Max!" dialogue takes precedence.
32113792
Sam There's no time for TV now, I don't care how good the reception is.
32113920
Sam Shame we can't get any reception without the hanger on top of there.
Messages for clicking the TV with/without reception while in antenna-searching mode. Guess what plays instead?
32114944
Sam No need. Max isn't here to complain about the bad reception. Gosh, I miss that little guy.
Trying to use the Coat Hanger on the TV in Rescue Max mode should prompt this response. It doesn't, though. He's gotta rescue Max!

Streets

Dialogue ID Dialogue Character Subtitles
30385536
Sam Need any more paint?
30385664
Specs Thanks, I'm good.
An alternate response to offering Specs the Spray Paint. In the final game, he just runs away.
31145472
Specs Oof!
31145984
Specs Ow!
31146112
Specs Hey!
31147392
Specs Quit it!
31147520
Specs I'm not hypnotized any more, brain freeze!
Apparently it was once possible to hit Specs with the boxing glove, multiple times even! Unfortunately, he disappears after he's been un-hypnotized.
30286464
Sam Down to "White Collar Crime Drive", to cruise for lawbreakers.
Alternate response for "Let's go cruise for lawbreakers, Max."
30379008
Sam I doubt the contents of that machine are worth the effort.
The first of several Coat Hanger interactions that are no longer accessible. This response is for using the Coat Hanger on the Gumball Machine.
30379392
Sam I don't think anybody's put a quarter in that meter since the Reagan administration.
This line is for using the Coat Hanger on the Bent Meter...
30391808
Sam I haven't locked my keys in the car once since we took the top off!
...and this one for using the hanger on the DeSoto.
32117120
Sam No antennas there.
Clicking on the Bent Meter, Dumpster, Gumball Machine, Mailbox, Newspaper Box, or Parking Meter in antenna-hunting mode should give this response, but Sam's gotta rescue Max!
32120192
Sam A good place for an antenna, except Max managed to get car antennas outlawed in the entire tri-state area when he... well, let's not get into it.
A unique and rather lengthy response to clicking on the DeSoto while looking for an antenna, but what about rescuing Max?! Sam's voice seems a bit off...

Bosco's

Dialogue ID Dialogue Character Subtitles
28944896
Sam And abusing his bathroom privileges.
Sam reiterating Bosco's line "And abusing his bathroom privileges!" Not really needed, so it was deleted.
29686656
Sam I wonder how he keeps that 'do up... Hair spray, perhaps?
29223168
Bosco And those eyes. I don't like people watching me, I don't care if they is made of cardboard.
29223296
Sam Okaaay...
Extended dialogue with Bosco complaining about the display. This would play after hearing Bosco's comments on Brady Culture's fro.
29051904
Sam Do you have any... chocolate covered lawnmower blades?
29052416
Sam Do you have any... Turkish Delight?
29052672
Sam Do you have any... bridges for sale?
Three "Do you have any..." messages that didn't make the cut.
29352832
Max We'll be back as soon as we find some muckety-muck corporate criminal to... fund the transaction.
An alternate response for asking about the Tear Gas Grenade Launcher again. The used line is "We gotta fine an illegally wealthy motorist, and quick!"
29355264
Bosco And I have a tear gas grenade launcher with your name on it...
29355392
Max A personalized grenade launcher? You know that's been a dream of mine, Sam!
29646208
Sam I know little buddy. You talk about it in your sleep.
This should play after selecting the "What've you got?" choice after learning about the Tear Gas Grenade Launcher, but that choice only appears once, and you need to choose it to learn about the thing in the first place! Bit of a problem, that.
29374080
Sam Heeey Bosco P. Coltrane.
28997632
Bosco Don't call me that.
An unused greeting referencing Dukes of Hazard sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane.
29688448
Sam You might be interested to know that your munchkin terrorist was actually hypnotized the entire time.
29686272
Bosco Hypnomatized?! By who?
29686400
Max Brady Culture!
29686528
Bosco I told you it was a conspiracy! That Brady Culture, he's bad news.
A conversation that would have occurred after learning about the Poppers' hypnosis from Sybil.
31651840
Sam Take a look at this.
31651968
Bosco Get that away from me!
An early version of the "use generic item on Bosco" dialogue.
31662080
Sam PlayBunny?
31662208
Max No! Self Loathing Weekly!
Two more lines that would play after clicking on the magazines in Bosco's store. The legal department must not have liked the name "PlayBunny", but it was too late to replace the dialogue, so it was cut.

This dialogue was re-recorded to reflect the new lawyer-friendly magazine name, "HotBunny", and is used in Situation: Comedy.

31706752
Sam Sounds like a blast, but I'll pass.
Trying to stick the Coat Hanger in the microwave gives this line of dialogue, but, well, you know.
29671936
Bosco You're not hypnomatized are you?
29672064
Sam I'm fine.
This intro should be used before the "You okay?" intro is used, but it never plays.
29677696
Bosco You better not come back here all hypnomatized!
29677824
Sam Don't worry Bosco, next time I'll be prepared.
Context-specific exit dialogue from Bosco after Sam breaks out of his hypnosis. Judging from this line and the ones above, someone must have had a problem with the word "hypnomatized" coming out of Bosco's mouth.
29678976
Bosco Come back soon. But not if you get hypnomatized!
The last hypnomatized line, this would play after exiting the conversation subsequent times.
29713536
Sam You don't have ANYTHING you could use for the antenna around here?
29713664
Bosco No way. Only a fool'd keep pointy metal objects lying around his place of business! You find the antenna.
A second conversation asking where to find an antenna. Only the first conversation about this plays in the final game.
29713792
Sam Still looking for an antenna?
29713920
Bosco I thought you was looking for it!
29714048
Sam Oh right, that was my job.
29689216
Bosco That's right!
Here's a third antenna conversation. Riveting!

Sybil's

Dialogue ID Dialogue Character Subtitles
31812224
Peepers Hey!
31812480
Peepers Ouch!
31812608
Peepers Stop!
31812736
Peepers My head!
31812864
Peepers Ow!
31812992
Peepers Why are you doing this?
Like with Specs, it was once possible to bop Peepers with the boxing glove multiple times.
29297024
Sam Sure, why not?
Early response for when Sybil asks Sam if she can psychoanalyze him.
30149888
Sybil Yep. You're as crazy as a loon.
30150016
Max We knew that.
Using the filled-out Symptoms Form on Sybil should produce this bit of dialogue, but the generic filled-out form message overrides this one.
30376192
Sam Never stick anything in a moving fan!
30376320
Max I know, I know.
Trying to put the Coat Hanger in the fan prompts this safety lesson...if Sam had a Coat Hanger at this point in the game...which he doesn't.

29911808
Sybil I'm afraid there's some sort of bug. Contact Randy Tudor to fix it right away.
Thankfully, this part of the game is well-coded, so this message never plays.
29601408
Sam That's great! I mean... oh, no.
30050816
Sybil I'd better note that on your chart.
Being successfully diagnosed for violent behavior in this mini-game should play these specific lines, but the normal diagnosis lines are used instead.
30009600
Sybil Be careful where you wave that thing in my office!
30009728
Sam Oh, I'm always careful.
When it was possible to "use" the Big Gun instead of just firing it, using it on any object in Sybil's would give this message.
30019584
Sybil Hm. Unusual. Maybe you've got reverse psychosomatic behavior patterning!
30019712
Max Is it contagious?
30019840
Sybil Usually.
30019968
Sam It's always good to share with others.
Like the Big Gun response above, this is a generic response for "using" the Tear Gas Grenade Launcher on any object in Sybil's office.
30095104
Sybil Well, that's what we're trying to find out. Hm. Subject questions mental health after hearing trigger word...
Clicking the Symptoms Form on Sybil's desk once gave the "Am I sane?" line from Sam and this dialogue. In the final game, clicking it leads to Sam reminding himself of the form's symptoms.

Dream Analysis

Dialogue ID Dialogue Character Subtitles
32196736
Sam On the wall was a calendar decorated with images of road kill.
32126848
Sybil What grotesque symbology!
32130176
Sam Actually, that's normally in our office.
32196864
Sybil Well, you really live the dream, don't you?
The developers forgot to make the Roadkill Calendar a hot spot in Dream Analysis, so this dialogue never gets a chance to play.

Driving

Dialogue ID Dialogue Character Subtitles
30760960
Sam Never use tear gas in a convertible!
30761088
Max That was a long time ago!
Apparently, it was once possible to use items in Sam's inventory while driving.
30761600
Sam Spray paint and wind make unsavory bedfellows.
30761728
Max Unsavory?
In the final game, the only options are the car horn, the bullhorn, and the Big Gun.
30762240
Sam This isn't exactly a close combat environment.
So trying to use something like, say, a Boxing Glove, is now impossible.
30762752
Sam We haven't been road bowling in quite a while!
30762880
Max It's more fun with nuns.
And don't even think about using Lou the Bowling Ball.
31980032
Max Move it, lard trunk!
31988736
Max Pick up the pace, Grandma!
31994624
Max Can't you drive ANY faster?
31994752
Max We hereby give you permission to DRIVE FASTER!
31994880
Max Outta the way, molasses man.
31996800
Max Hurry up!
If it was possible to heckle a driver after rear-ending them, these lines would probably play. It isn't, though.

Asylum

Exterior

Dialogue ID Dialogue Character Subtitles
30553344
Sam Clearly, Mr. Culture is a compassionate man.
30553472
Max And well versed in the heavy-handed application of modern chemistry!
The "Beware of Heavily Medicated Has-Beens!" poster is supposed to be clickable, but in the final game it's just a background object.
30612352
Sam I don't think those are the kind of forms the monkey wants.
Trying to put the $10,000 bag in the Form Reader gives this response, but the money's long gone by the point this area is accessible. Maybe this area was originally open earlier in the game?
30613504
Sam I think it needs a form.
Trying to trip the form reader with the Coat Hanger gives this response, but for the lack of a Coat Hanger...
30614016
Sam Pity I never learned to pick a lock.
Trying to use the Coat Hanger on either gate gives this response. Alas, poor Coat Hanger. I knew it, Sam.
30262016
Sam I'm not going back in there until I've got a working defense against that dastardly hypnotic ray!
Sam won't even drive back to this place without the Anti-Hypnosis Helmet, so this dialogue never gets a chance to play.

Interior

Dialogue ID Dialogue Character Subtitles
31054592
Brady Protect... me!
Earlier in the game's development, trying to get closer to Brady would lead to him ordering the Poppers to protect him.

In the final game, trying to get closer to Brady Culture leads to him ordering the Poppers to attack you. This change was likely done to make the solution to this sequence more obvious.

30525440
Brady Hah!
30525824
Brady Oho!
30526592
Brady Psych!
Trying to get closer to him subsequent times would produce one of these lines.
29860608
Sam Protect... Brady Culture!
29875328
Sam Hm. Not my most brilliant plan.
After Brady orders the Poppers to protect him, the player would unlock the "Protect..." conversation choice. This, of course, would just lead to the Poppers protecting Brady again.
29860992
Sam Protect... me!
29875968
Brady Hey! Protect... me!
The Poppers would briefly protect Sam before being ordered back to Brady.
29861376
Sam Protect... yourselves!
29876864
Brady Cretins. Attack... the dog!
This would lead to the Poppers lining up in the middle of the room, confused, before attacking Sam again.
29861760
Sam Protect... the videotapes!
29877504
Brady It's so hard to find good help. Attack... the dog!
The Poppers would line up in front of the videotapes before once again going after Sam.
29869952
Brady No, me! ME! Protect ME!
After making Brady Culture jealous, telling the Poppers to protect anyone but Brady Culture would lead to this.
30527616
Sam Why not take a break and watch a nice videotape?
30527744
Peepers What?
30527872
Whizzer Why?
30528000
Specs No.
Should play after using the Videotape on the Soda Poppers, but the generic Videotape failure message plays instead.

Dream

Dialogue ID Dialogue Character Subtitles
30971264
Sam Okay, hold on, I'll getcha.
There are two possible failure dialogues for flipping the One Way Sign by hand. This should play the second time, but the line "Okay, hold on, I'll think of something." is mistakingly used for both dialogues.
30984704
Sam I wouldn't want to put Brady back on the air!
Should play after trying to use the Coat Hanger on the TV, but the generic Dream failure message plays instead.
30999552
Brady Pay no attention to that man behind the closet door!
30999680
Brady Go away!
31014528
Brady I'll open the door when I'm good and ready!
Three unused responses from the cheese-based closet-dwelling Brady, all of which are angrier than the lines he says in the actual game.
31189248
Sam My skull would prefer that I keep it holstered for now.
Some kind of failure message for using the Big Gun, most likely meant to play while trying to shoot the One Way sign after getting Max's head.

These alternate takes are only found in the GameTap version of the game. Sometimes the dialogue is different between takes.
