SC_PHELLO2
"Aah, it's good to see you."
SC_PHELLO3
"Greetings!"
SC_PHELLO4
"Hello."
SC_PHELLO5
"Hello there."
SC_PHELLO6
"Freeman."
SC_PQUEST0
"Have you been able to get the beverage machine to work yet?"
SC_PQUEST1
"Did you submit your status report to the administrator today?"
SC_PQUEST2
"Are you running those tunneling latis (?) calculations again?"
SC_PQUEST3
"This should shake up those grand unification boys, hmm?"
SC_PQUEST4
"Are you one hundred percent sure that theory of yours is correct?"
SC_PQUEST5
"I am rather looking forward to this analysis, aren't you?"
SC_PQUEST6
"Wouldn't it be fantastic to get some pure readings for a change?"
SC_PQUEST7
"Any ideas on the origin of that new sample?"
SC_PQUEST8
"This analysis is going to run perfectly today, don't you think?"
SC_PQUEST9
"Aren't you a bit worried about that exponential cascade scenario we discussed?"
SC_PQUEST10
"Do you think we should delay for another recaliberation?"
SC_PQUEST11
"You aren't going soft on that ethics issue again, are you?"
SC_PQUEST12
"All displacement modulators were tuned today, weren't they?"
SC_PQUEST13
"Do you know who ate all the donuts!?"
SC_PQUEST14
"Have you seen my coffee cup?"
SC_PQUEST15
"Is anyone else getting hungry?"
SC_PQUEST16
"Don't you think we should recalculate those resonance dampening factors again?"
SC_PQUEST17
"Are you sure you checked the igon attenuators?"
SC_PIDLE0
"Someone has hidden my glasses again."
SC_PIDLE1
"Why do we all have to wear these ridiculous ties?"
SC_PIDLE2
"I wonder if I should run that test again."
SC_PIDLE3
"This is all within theoretical limits."
SC_PIDLE4
"As I expected."
SC_PIDLE5
"That's odd."
SC_PIDLE6
"Yes, this all looks nominal."
SC_PIDLE7
"Now where did I lay down that shutdown procedure chart?"
SC_PIDLE8
"I must remember to report that fluctuation."
SC_PIDLE9
"Most of the simulation results are perfectly acceptable, you know."

"OK, I will wait here."
These were used for specific scripts, but you can do what you want with them
SC_GOODWORK
Through intercom, "Good work, these new suits can be tricky, please proceed to the next area."
SC_HARDLYNOTICE
Through intercom, "Very good, I hardly noticed you, move on to the next area."
SC_NEXTSTATION
Through intercom, "Good work, you look prepared for the next station."
SC_POK0
"Please, leave me alone until after the experiment."
SC_POK1
"I can't be bothered right now."
SC_POK2
"Excuse me Gordon, but I'm rather busy now."
SC_POK3
"You'll just have to wait until after the test."
SC_POK4
"Weren't you supposed to be in the test chamber half an hour ago?"
SC_1MUMBLE
Mumbling incoherently over the intercom
SC_DISA
Over the intercom, "Testing, testing...cough..cough...everything seems to be in order."
SC_DIS1A
Over the intercom, "All right Gordon, your suit should keep you comfortable through all this. The specimen will be delivered to you in a few moments. If you would be so good as to climb up and start the rotors, we can bring the anti-mass spectrometer to eighty percent and hold it there until the carrier arrives."
SC_DIS1B
Over the intercom "Gordon, are you not hearing me? Climb up and start the rotors please."
SC_DIS1C
angrily over the intercom "Climb up and start the rotors."
SC_DIS1D
Over the intercom "Very good, we'll take it from here."
SC_DIS2A
Over the intercom "Power to stage one emitters in three, two, one."
SC_DIS3A
Over the intercom "I'm seeing predictable phazer rays."
SC_DIS4A
Over the intercom "Tell him to stand back from the focal stage, that suit won't do him any good if he wanders into the beam."
SC_DIS5A
Over the intercom "Stage two emitters, activating now."
SC_DIS6A
Over the intercom "I've just been informed that the sample is ready, Gordon. It should be coming up to you any moment now. Look to the delivery system for your specimen."
SC_DIS7A
Over the intercom "Standard insertion for a non-standard specimen. Go ahead Gordon, slump the carrier into the analysis port."
SC_DIS8A
comma
SC_DIS9A
Over the intercom "Overhead capacitors to 105 percent."
SC_DIS10A
Over the intercom "Gordon, we cannot predict how long the system can operate at this level nor how long the reading will take. Please work as quickly as you can."
SC_DIS11A
Over the intercom "Uh, it's probably not a problem...probably...But I'm showing a small discrepancy...well no it's well within acceptable bounds again. Sustaining sequence."
SC_DIS12A
Over the intercom "Nothing you need to worry about Gordon. That's it, go ahead."
SC_DIS13A
Over the intercom "Wh, what is he doing in there?"
SC_DIS14A
Over the intercom "Get him out of there! Shut down the equipment and someone get him out."
SC_DIS15A
Over the intercom "Shutting down, attempting shut down, it's not, it's not shutting down, it's not..."
SC_DIS16A
Over the intercom "Gordon, get away from the beams!"
SC_DIS17A
Over the intercom "He waited too long! We can't contain it!"
SC_GETAWAY
"Get away from there Freeman, I'm expecting an important message."
SC_GMORN
"Good morning, Gordon."
SC_BIGDAY
"Big day today Freeman."
SC_SAMPLE
"The sample was just delivered to the test chamber."
SC_NOTTHAT
??
SC_LOCK1A
"I'm afraid we'll be deviating a bit from standard analysis procedures today, Gordon."
SC_LOCK2A
"Yes, but with good reason. This is a rare opportunity for us. This is the purest sample we've seen yet."
SC_LOCK3A
"And, potentially the most unstable."
SC_LOCK4A
"Now, now, if you follow standard insertion procedures, everything will be fine."
SC_LOCK5A
"I don't know how you can say that. Although, I will admit that the possibility of a resonance cascade scenario is extremely unlikely. I remain uncomfortable with the..."
SC_LOCK6A
"Gordon doesn't need to hear all this, he's a highly trained professional. We've assured the administrator that nothing will go wrong."
SC_LOCK7A
"Ah yes, you're right. Gordon, we have complete confidence in you."
SC_LOCK8A
"Well, go ahead. Let's let him in now."
SC_LOCK9A
appears to be missing
SC_CRIT1A
"Quick, it's about to go critical."
SC_CRIT2A
"What the HELL is going on with our equipment?"
SC_CRIT3A
"It wasn't meant to do this in the first place."
SC_CTRL1A
"Ah, Gordon, there you are. We've just sent the sample down to the test chamber."
SC_CTRL2A
"We've boosted the anti-mass spectrometer to 105 percent. A bit of a gamble, but we need the extra resolution."
SC_CTRL3A
"The administrator is very concerned that we get a conclusive analysis of today's sample. I gather they went to some lengths to get it."
SC_CTRL4A
"They're waiting for you Gordon. In the test chamber."
SC_CONSOLE1A
"Why didn't they listen?"
SC_CONSOLE2A
"We tried to warn them."
SC_CONSOLE3A
"I never thought I'd see a resonance cascade, let alone create one."
SC_CONSOLE4A
"Gordon, you're a live! Thank god for that hazard suit. I'm afraid to move! All our phones are out. Please, get to the surface as soon as you can and let someone know we're stranded down here. You'll need me to activate the retinal scanners. I'm sure the rest of the science team will gladly help you."
SC_CONSOLE5A
"Be careful Gordon!"
SC_CONSOLERPT
appears to be missing
SC_ZOMBIE1A
"Get out of there! Run man, run!"
SC_ZOMBIE3A
"Don't be a fool!"
SC_ZOMBIE5A
"Noo."
SC_ZOMBIE6A
"Don't just stand there, pick up that gun and shoot it!"
SC_DANGLING
"I...I can't hold on much longer!"
SC_DARKROOM
"I'm not so sure I want to go to the surface. What if the world finds out what we were doing down here."
SC_ELEVATOR
dying "If you can make it up the elevator shaft, you should be able to get to the surface. Try to send help and let the world know what has happened."
SC_LOUNGE
"Gordon, if I'd known it was you, I would have let you in. Everyone's heading for the surface. But I think they're crazy not to stay put. Someone is bound to come by and rescue us."
SC_TRANSMISSION
"I have just overheard a secure access transmission. Soldiers have arrived and they're coming to rescue us. Of course I have my doubts that we'll live long enough to greet them."
SC_1MAN
"Take me with you! I'm the one man that knows everything!"
SC_ATLAST
"Rescued at last!"
SC_RESCUED
"Rescued at last! Thank god you're here!"
SC_SILO1A
"For god's sake, open the silo door! They're coming for us, it's our only way out!"
SC_SILO2A
"Oh my god, we're doomed!"
SC_TEAM
"Don't shoot, I'm with the science team!"
SC_THANKGOD
"Thank god you're here!"
SC_TRAINEND
"Have you heard? They're killing scientists! Our own race turning against us. I think I'll stay here and take my chances with the creatures."
SC_ROCKET
"Fire the rocket engine. Destroy the damned thing before it grows any larger."
SC_BLIND
"Is someone there? I can't see a thing"
SC_POWEROFF
"I hope no one expects me to start up the generator. Smithers went down there and never came back."
SC_POWERON
"Excellent! Someone has restored all power. We'll have the engine up again in no time."
SC_GENER
"This is my hiding spot, and I'm not moving until the situation has drastically improved. Now go away, and don't tell anyone I'm here."
SC_TRUST
"Well, so much for the government. Their idea of containment is to kill everyone associated with the project! Judging by your hazard suit I'd say you were part of what went wrong, isn't that right? Now look, if anyone can end this catastrophe, it's the science team at the Lambda Complex at the opposite end of the base. With the transit system out, I couldn't tell you how to get there, but there's an old decommissioned rail system somewhere through here beyond the silo complex. If you can make it through the rocket test labs, you might be able to worm your way through the old tunnels to track down whatever's left of the lambda team. You can trust them, you can trust all of us. Good luck.
SC_TENT
"NO, NO get it off me, get it off! Aaah!"
SC_ICKY
"Did you see it? They say it was hauled from the Challenger Deep. But I'm positive that beast never swam in terrestrial waters until a week ago. There's a tranquilizer gun in the shark cage, but I'm not sure it will work on this species. You're welcome to try."
SC_TRACK
"Gordon Freeman, it is you isn't it. The science team has been tracking your progress with the Black Mesa security system. Unfortunately, so has the military. That suit of yours is full of tracking devices. Still, it's better than going naked in this place. It's cold in there, and you'll have to hurry, it could sap your suit power in a matter of moments. If you're bent on reaching the Lambda Complex, then you'll want to keep to the older industrial areas where the security system is full of holes. It's worked for me...so far."
SC_ARG1A
"It's not our fault I tell you!"
SC_ARG2A
"Nature made them. We were only studying them."
SC_TAU2A
"Put that down. It's a prototype."
SC_TAU4A
"It's much too unpredictable. Don't let it overcharge."
SC_1PSURG
"We all have retinal scanner access. Escort us to the lobby, and we can get out of the lab."
SC_2PSURG
"You'll have to shut down the surgical unit first. Peter switched it on, but I'm afraid he never made it back."
SC_3PSURG
"A scientist! Thank god! Get us out of here before those military drones figure out where we're hiding."
SC_ALLDIE
"If you let us all die Freeman, you'll never get out of here!"
SC_LETOUT
"Well, I'll let you out, but I'm warning you: it's hell out here! It's completely under military control! You'll have to sneak and fight your way from one end to the other, and I don't expect you'll meet many of our peers along the way. But, if you do survive and somehow make it across the base, you'll end up at the Lambda Complex, where the rest of the science team has taken shelter. I wouldn't venture there myself, but I will let them know that you are coming."
SC_BOOBIE
"You're heading for Lambda Complex, aren't you? I was heading there myself until I wound up here, and well simply lost my nerve. Take one look through that door and you'll see what I mean. I'm just going to wait out the catastrophe in here. If you intend to go on, then I bet of you: proceed with extreme caution!"
SC_LEBUZ
"Thank you Mr.Freeman. You are Gordon Freeman, aren't you? The one they're expecting in the Lambda Complex? If you can figure out a way past that gargantua on the landing field, then through the bunker door out there, you'll find yourself at the Lambda Lab's doorstep."
SC_STRAWS
"I apologize Mr.Freeman, but I couldn't risk opening that door until I was sure you'd scoured the area. This is the last entrance to the Lambda Complex. Every other has been sealed off to contain the invasion. When we realized that you might actually make it here, we drew straws to see who should stay behind to let you through. Obviously, I drew the short one. My colleagues are waiting at the tip of the Lambda Reactor, waiting for you I mean. The reactor is shut down right now, but you could activate it on your way up. You'll have to flood the core anyway to get into the teleportation labs...you're not authorized to know about those, but I can see you already know a great deal more than any one man is supposed to."
SC_GLUON2A
"Were you in weapons research too? I built the gluon gun, but I just can't bring myself to use it on a living creature. You don't look as if you have any trouble killing things."
SC_FLOOD
"Freeman isn't it? You'll need to activate both pumps to flood the reactor, and then that access pipe down there will take you to the core. Time is short!"
SC_LINGER
"Don't linger Mr.Freeman, you've turned on the pumps. Now take the access pipe, flood the core, and get on up to the labs without delay!"
SC_SURVEY1A
"Gordon Freeman, you finally found us."
SC_SURVEY3A
"This is the supply depot for our first survey team. Quite a few handsome specimens were collected from the borderworld and brought back this way. Um before the survey members started being collected themselves that is. We suspect there is an immense portal over there, created by the intense concentration of a single powerful being. You will know it when you see it. I hate to say this Gordon, but you must kill it if you can."
SC_SURVEY5A
"Of course, you owe us nothing, Mr.Freeman, but you've come this far, you know as much about these creatures as anyone."
SC_SURVEY7A
"Yes. Soo if you're willing, my colleague is waiting for you at the main portal controls. He will open the gates for you Mr.Freeman, do hurry."
SC_LJUMP
"This, Mr.Freeman, is the long jump module, created expressly for navigation in the world beyond. I certainly hope you received long jump training, because once you're in Xen, you will need it. I would advise you to practice before crossing over."
SC_UPHERE
"Hello Freeman, I'm up here! Practice your long jump if you must, but hurry up!"
SC_PORTAL
"All right, I can open the portal now! The process is complicated, and once it's begun, I cannot be interrupted, or I will have to start all over again. Don't enter the beam until I give the OK. Understood? I will begin."
SC_PORTOPEN
"It's ready, you must go, NOW!"
SC_POSITION
"We're almost there Freeman, get yourself in position."
SC_FOREVER
"Hurry up Freeman! I can't keep it open forever!"
SC_NOTYET
"Not yet, Freeman!"
SC_FOOL
"Freeman you fool!"
SC_LETYOUIN
"Wait a minute, and I'll let you in."
SC_OVERHERE
"Psst, over here."
