23. : So it's that simple! Drop your weapons, bring out Nine-Fingers, and this can all end peacefully! For you, at least.devnoteOOM
33. : What's this, Stone Lord? Bit late to change the terms of our deal - we've already begun.
51. : The Stone Lord is no more. Boo and Jaheira and my friend would not let me stay cursed.
50. : And the only terms we offer are between my boot and your treacherous buttocks.
56. : Unfortunate. But if you'll only listen a moment, you'll see we want the same thing.
57. : Oh? Minsc is wanting to close your mouth with a kick. And you?
8. : Justice. Nine-Fingers, punished for what she did to you. And the Zhentarim, rewarded for their stead-fastedness.
43. : The Zhentarim have been trying to crack Baldur's Gate for years. No better time than now, with Nine-Fingers on the back foot.
29. : A Guild under our control can do what Nine-Fingers failed to - drive the Absolute out of the city, once and for all.
54. : And then reap the spoils. Stay on in the city, as its true protectors. For a reasonable fee, of course.
53. : My hamster can smell your lies, villain. Foul not his little nose.devnote
37. : Let's have the truth, then. Do your friends know how many you killed in the Absolute's name, Stone Lord? Do you?
31. : I... do not call me that. Minsc is Minsc!devnote
45. : Funny that. The Minsc of the old days would've been no friend to Nine-Fingers - a known thief, a murderer. That Minsc served the side of good.
4. : ... devnote
64. : No judgement. It's hard to know the right thing. Better to let others do the thinking, eh?
58. : ... on this, we agree.devnote
11. : Your leader is not wrong. The Guild is a band of treacherous scoundrels, and Nine-Fingers the worst among them!devnote
16. : But the Stone Lord... Minsc... was many times worse. I have no right to judge.
38. : So it will not be Minsc who does the judging.devnote
26. : MY HAMSTER WILL COUNT TO THREE! LAY DOWN YOUR ARMS, ZHENTARIM, AND BOO WILL SPARE YOUR LIVES!

6. : I may have lied to that lot about this ending peacefully. But you can still pick the right side.
61. Player: What are you doing? Why turn on the Guild?
36. : We're turning on Nine-Fingers. She's been running this place into the ground for some time.
32. Player: I'm listening.
2. : The Zhentarim have been trying to crack Baldur's Gate for years. No better time than now, with Nine-Fingers on the back foot.
