Cutscene[]

It looks like these Hotspots are protected by shield generators. Getting near them will be tricky, but you'll have to shut down each one before you can take out the central service point. Which of course is protected by even more Zin, so... good luck with that.

Playa - Male 3: "And what's a Hotspot?"
Nolan North: "So what exactly is a Hotspot? Ha ha, don't tell me... it's an anus."
Kinzie: "Basically a giant work station. A system like the simulation you're in probably requires constant maintenance, which is what these seem to be for."
Playa - Female 1: "Tell me there's only one of these?"
Playa - Female 2: "There is only one?"
Playa - Female 3: "There's just one, right?"

Playa - Male 3: "Look at the size of the bloomin' thing..."
Nolan North: "Jesus, would you look at the size of that thing? Ha ha, it always looks bigger in pictures."
Kinzie: "Focus on the shield generators, otherwise you'll never get to the main console."
— "Arrive At Hotspot"
Playa - Female 1: "Guess I just pull these out..."
Playa - Female 2: "I should pull these out..."
Playa - Female 3: "Let's just cut to the chase."
Playa - Male 1: "Guess I just pull these out..."
Playa - Male 2: "I'm cuttin' the cord."
Playa - Male 3: "Might as well yank shit out."
Nolan North: "Guess I just pull these out..."

Playa - Female 1: "Who needs hacking skills when I've got all this?"
Playa - Female 2: "See? A triumph of brute force."
Playa - Female 3: "Who has time to figure these doodads out?"
Playa - Male 1: "See, who needs hacking skills when brute strength works."
Playa - Male 2: "See, Kinzie, I got hacking skills, too."
Playa - Male 3: "Blind luck and bravado for the win."
Nolan North: "Ah, hacking's for pussies."
— "1st Shield Down"
Kinzie: "With the shield down you can get to the console at the base of the structure."
Playa - Female 1: "Yeah, that's not gonna be a problem..."
Playa - Female 2: "Of course. No problem..."
Playa - Female 3: "Oh peachy..."
Playa - Male 1: "Oh sure, no problem..."
Playa - Male 2: "Yeah, that'll go real smooth."
Playa - Male 3: "Right. Piece of cake."
Nolan North: "Oh sure, no problem..."
— "Last Shield Down"
Playa - Female 1: "I can do this..."
Playa - Female 2: "Here I go..."
Playa - Female 3: "Here goes nothing..."
Playa - Male 1: "Let's do this..."
Playa - Male 2: "I'm on it..."
Playa - Male 3: "Ready, steady..."
Nolan North: "Let's do this..."
— "Ripping Out Core"
Yaaaaaahhhhhhh!

Playa - Female 1: "Check please."
Playa - Female 2: "Finis."
Playa - Female 3: "Ta-da."
Playa - Male 1: "Done."
Playa - Male 2: "Over."
Playa - Male 3: "Sorted."
Nolan North: "Done."
Kinzie: "Um, I'm showing some strange readings close to you..."

Playa - Male 3: "Oh, joy. What IS that thing?"

Playa - Female 2: "And what do you mean by that?"
Playa - Female 3: "Meaning what?"
Playa - Male 1: "And that means what?"
Playa - Male 2: "And what's that mean?"

Playa - Female 2: "You care to rephrase that?"
Playa - Female 3: "Honey, I'm not that kind of girl."
Playa - Male 1: "Yeah, cause I want THAT inside me."
Playa - Male 2: "Is it gonna buy me a drink first?"
Playa - Male 3: "Right, because I want THAT inside me."
Nolan North: "Yeah, cause I want THAT inside me. Exit only. There's even a tattoo down there telling you so."

Playa - Male 3: "Oh, that is smashing!"
Nolan North: "Whoa, now that's a rush!"

Zinyak: "Yes, bravo... Perhaps my Wardens underestimated you. I won't let them make the same mistake twice."
Kinzie: "That can't be good."
Playa - Female 1: "Eh, fuck him, Kinzie. How about setting up one of those training rooms for me?"
Playa - Female 2: "Ignore him, Kinzie. Can you set up one of those training rooms for me?"

Playa - Male 1: "Forget about him, Kinzie. How about setting up one of those training rooms for me?"

Kinzie: "I think I can do that."
— "Warden Defeated"

Training Room[]

Playa: "So what did I get? Teleportation? Laser vision? Bone claws?"
Kinzie: "Looks like the ability to freeze people and objects with an ice blast."
Playa - Female 1: "That sounds awesome!"
Playa - Female 2: "That sounds awesome!"
Playa - Female 3: "That sounds mighty intriguing."
Playa - Male 1: "That sounds awesome!"
Playa - Male 2: "That sounds awesome!"
Playa - Male 3: "That sounds awesome!"
Nolan North: "That sounds awesome!"
— "Blast Training Start"
Kinzie: "Let me load up a few targets from the simulation for you."
Playa - Female 1: "Wait, are you putting in guys who'll try to kill me?"
Playa - Female 2: "Come again? Are you putting in people who want to kill me?"
Playa - Female 3: "Hold on, are you putting in people who will try to kill me?"
Playa - Male 1: "Hold on, are you putting in people who will try to kill me?"
Playa - Male 2: "Back it up. You putting in people who'll try to kill me?"
Playa - Male 3: "Hang on, you're not putting in people who'll try to kill me?"

Playa - Female 2: "You see this wall here, Kinzie?"
Playa - Female 3: "Some glowing wall just appeared."
Playa - Male 1: "What's this?"
Playa - Male 2: "Kinzie, what's this thing?"
Playa - Male 3: "What am I looking at?"
Nolan North: "What's this?"
Kinzie: "It looks like data clusters can be hidden inside walls. Use your blast to knock them out."
— "Blast Clusters"

Kinzie: "I'll see if I can help with that."
Kinzie: "Okay. You should be able to recover from being knocked back now."
— "Knocked Back"
Kinzie: "Hold on, it looks like Zinyak added a shield to the Warden code. I guess you pissed him off."
Playa - Female 1: "It's getting to be a habit. So how do I beat this shield?"
Playa - Female 2: "Well, we are not B.F.F.s. Now how do I get around it?"
Playa - Female 3: "What else is new. So how do I get around it?"
Playa - Male 1: "What else is new. So how do I get around it?"
Playa - Male 2: "So what? Just tell how to get around it."
Playa - Male 3: "Occupational hazard. Now how do I get around it?"
Nolan North: "Y'think? Tell me how to get around it."
Kinzie: "You'll need something more powerful than a weapon, so use your super powers to deactivate the shield for a short time. Then you can shoot him."
— "Blast Training Warden"
See, that works pretty well. Though the real thing might be a bit tougher.
— Kinzie, "Blast Training End"

Playa - Male 2: "Don't tell nobody I did this..."
Playa - Male 3: "In for a penny, in for a pound..."
