gman_suit
|
Gordon Freeman in the flesh. Or rather, in the hazard suit. I took the liberty of relieving you of your weapons; most of them were government property. As for the suit, I think you’ve earned it. | ![]() |
gman_nasty
|
The borderworld, Xen, is in our control for the time being, thanks to you. Quite a nasty piece of work you managed over there. I am impressed. | ![]() |
gman_potential
|
That’s why I’m here, Mr. Freeman. I have recommended your services to my employers, and they have authorized me to offer you a job. They agree with me that you have limitless potential. | ![]() |
gman_stepin
|
You’ve proved yourself a decisive man, so I don’t expect you’ll have any trouble deciding what to do. If you’re interested, just step into the portal and I will take that as a yes. | ![]() |
gman_otherwise
|
Otherwise...well...I can offer you a battle you have no chance of winning. Rather an anticlimax, after what you’ve just survived. | ![]() |
gman_choose1
|
Time to choose. | ![]() |
gman_choose2
|
It's time to choose. | ![]() |
gman_wise
|
Wisely done, Mr. Freeman. I will see you up ahead. | ![]() |

No regrets, Mr. Freeman. (If the player refuses G-Man's offer.) | ![]() |

gman_noregret
|
Well, it looks like we won't be working together. No regrets, Mr. Freeman, but there are a few survivors of your personal holocaust who would like the chance to meet the man responsible for the total annihilation of their race. (If the player refuses G-Man's offer, longer version.) | ![]() |

|
So, Corporal Shephard, we meet at last. Please, don't think that I've been avoiding you, a great many matters require my attention in these... troubled times. I do hope you understand, and now I require a further indulgence on your part. I cannot close my report until every loose end has been tied up. The biggest embarrassment has been Black Mesa facility, but I think that's finally taken care of itself... | ![]() |
of7a0_gm02
|
Quite so. | ![]() |
of7a0_gm03
|
But there is still the lingering matter of witnesses. I admit I have a fascination with those who adapt and survive against all odds. They rather remind me of myself. If for no other reason, I have argued to preserve you for a time. | ![]() |
of7a0_gm04
|
While I believe a civil servant like yourself understands the importance of... discretion, my employers are not quite so trusting, and rather than continually subject you to the irresistible human temptation of telling all, we have decided to...convey you to somewhere where you can do no possible harm, and where no harm can come to you. I'm sure you can imagine there are worse alternatives. | ![]() |

Cleverly done, Mr. Freeman, but you're not supposed to be here. As a matter of fact, you're not. Get back where you belong, and forget about all this, until we meet again. (Also under the names "gman_12 ", and "gman_12a " to "gman_12d ". Partially reused in the Half-Life 2: Episode Two Trailer.)

Cleverly done, Mr. Freeman, but you're not supposed to be here. In fact, you're not. Go back where you belong, and forget all about this, until we meet... (Mostly the same sentence as above, made by another actor.) | ![]() |

那麼,看來我們是沒有合作的機會了。 (Mandarin Chinese.

Rather than offer you the illusion of free choice, I will take the liberty of choosing for you...if and when your time comes around again. | ![]() |

Doctor Freeman. I realize this moment may not be the most convenient for a heart-to-heart, but I had to wait until your friends were otherwise occupied. Hm. | ![]() |
gman_mono05 to gman_mono06
|
There was a time they cared nothing for Miss Vance... When their only experience of humanity was a crowbar coming at them down a steel corridor. | ![]() |
gman_mono08 to gman_mono10
|
When I plucked her from Black Mesa, I acted in the face of objections that she was a mere child and of no practical use to anyone. I have learned to ignore such naysayers when quelling them was out of the question. [breathing] | ![]() |
gman_mono11 to gman_mono13

Still, I am not one to squander my investments... and I remain confident she was worth far more than the initial...appraisal. | ![]() |

That's why I must now extract from you some small repayment owed for your own survival. | ![]() |

See her safely to White Forest, Doctor Freeman. [breathing] | ![]() |

I wish I could do more than keep an eye on you, but I have agreed to abide by certain... restrictions. | ![]() |

Mmm. Well... Now... Listen carefully, my dear. When you see your father relay these words: | ![]() |

It seems they've grown to share my estimation of her worth. |
gman_mono18 to gman_mono21
|
I'm not asking for anything that goes against your nature. Merely the favor of her continued protection, while she acts as medium for a message of some importance. |
gman_mono23
|
She may require more care than was previously the case. |
