The Bomb

Unused lines for the Bomb. Some of these lines perhaps imply you may have been intended to be able to talk directly to the Bomb at some point.

Filename	Audio	Transcription	Notes
z.st.356.wav		What are you staring at? Do you think it's easy to keep counting backwards, while your being stared at? YOU try it! You try, having someone just staring at you while your trying to count backwards. You get all- awkward and self conscious, and... A-And I'm not meant to BE self conscious, I'm just meant to BLOW UP. So just push off, will you? Recommencing countdown; Now, One Thousand...
z.st.357.wav		Fiddle Fiddle Fiddle! What are you doing anyway!? No, don't tell me I'm not interested. Half the night I got people trying to take that thing apart- and completely forgetting about me, then I've got somebody wandering around for hours on end trying to put it all together again and getting me all in a tiswas and making me forget what I'm doing. [Inhale] RECOMMENSING COUNTDOWN NOW; One Thousand.	From the first bit of this line you would think this to be another line intended for when you're fiddling with the bomb controls, but the second part implies the bomb is talking about Titania. In-game, the bomb never comments on your attempts to fix Titania.
z.st.358.wav		Nah nah ne nah nah, we're going to blow up. Just as soon as I can get a bit of peace and quiet, that is... Recommencing countdown... Now, One Thousand...
z.st.359.wav		Look, I'm a bomb, not a bomb designer. There's no point in going on at me about aspects of my design, over which I have no control! You want a bomb designer, go and find one! You want a bomb, you've got one! You don't want a bomb... You've still got one so tough. Recommencing countdown. Now... [Inhale] One Thousand.	Considering that the complexity of your ability to converse with the bomb is a little more advanced then fruitlessly attempting to whack its glass panel with a hammer, this response doesn't seem to fit anywhere.
z.st.361.wav		This is very unfair of you, you know! A bomb needs to be in an appropriate frame of mind for blowing up! Calm, Focused, and Purposeful. Not all- ratty and flustered like your making me get. How am I supposed to do my best work in these conditions? Honestly!.. Recommencing countdown, now!.. One Thousand...
z.st.362.wav		You'll notice that I'm ignoring you this time, you do whatever your doing, and I'll just do what I'm doing, which is counting down from-... Oh no- Agh- [Sounds of extreme annoyance] RECOMMENCING COUNTDOWN, NOW! ONE THOUSAND!
z.st.363.wav		Don't talk to me, don't- don't talk to- I'm- I'm just doing A tricky bit; Eight hundred and one, Eight hundred. Six hundred and- I- I mean Sev- Seven- Seven hundred and ah [annoyed numerical stumbling]. Damn. Damn Damn Da- I wish you wouldn't even come in here you know, I mean, I'm sure your up to no good. Recommencing countdown. Now, One Thousand.	Another line that perhaps implies that you were able to talk to the bomb at one point... Considering every response would have to end in the bomb recommencing the count-down, it's no wonder there is no such functionality in the release game.
z.st.365.wav		Well, you said it, baby! Live with yourself if you can.	Most likely intended for disarming the bomb, in response to the disarm code you enter.
z.st.367.wav		Now, I've mentioned before about interrupting while I'm in the middle of a countdown: If you want a bomb you can have a good natter with, you should have got the Mega-Scuttler Pro, which has Multi-tasking, Speech recognition, and general chattering software, and therefore makes an all together more expensive Bang. As it is, you've JUST got me- uh I'm doing my best under increasingly trying conditions, if I may say so. Recommencing countdown, Now. One Thousand.	Another line hinting at being able to talk to the bomb at some point. A similar bomb to the "Mega-Scuttler Pro" is mentioned in the novel.
z.st.370.wav		So how many is that, that you've tried? About, Forty? Well, only another One Thousand One Hundred and Twenty Two Trillion Trillion, Two Hundred and Seventy Four Billion, One Hundred and Forty Six Million, Four Hundred and One Thousand Eight Hundred and Eighty One Trillion, Nine Hundred and Seventy Three Billion, Seven Hundred and Sixty Two Million, Thirty One Thousand Five Hundred and Seventy Six to go! So, you've set a nice pace there... and made me lose count- Ahem, [Annoyed huff] ah- Recommencing countdown, now, One Thousand.
z.st.371.wav		Look at it this way: You can either try all the combinations, which will probably take us neatly up to the heat death of the universe, or you can solve it by being clever. Which also wont do you any good, seeing as Nobody Likes a Smart-Arse. I'd cut your losses if I were you, and run away! You've still got how many seconds is it to get out- oh damn I've lost count again. [assorted noises of aggravation] Recommencing countdown, now; One Thousand.	Unused line for the Bomb, in which the bomb in-directly gives you the disarm code.
z.st.373.wav		Ten. Nine. Eight. Seven. Six. Five. Four. Three. Three and three quarters. Three and a half. Three and three eighths. Three and a quarter. Three and three sixteenths. Three and one- look, I'm a Bomb, for heavens sake, I'm bending over backwards to be fair, and reasonable, but at the end of the day, I'm a bomb, and what bombs do, not to put too finer point on it... Is, they blow up! I don't wanna do it any more then you do but what else can I do! You want me to change into a- a Banana Meringue? I can't. I'm a bomb. I have to explode. Anything you want to say, or suggest?.. No?.. Okay, I warned you, THREETWOONE- Eh- Have you ever read Gorky Park?.. No? Well, doesn't look as if your going to either, BANG!	While the bomb does get annoyed at you at the end of the countdown in-game, this line is rather different to the used one, and rather than just recommencing the countdown, this one does end in a sort of a bang...
z.st.378.wav		Please do not speak to me, while I am counting. I am just a simple counting and exploding device, and am not equipped for philosophical discourse. Now you've made me lose count, you see- [sounds of increased flusteration] Recommencing countdown, now! One Thousand.	More unused bomb lines suggesting you're being able to talk to it.
