Dialogue
The Journey to Mêlée Island
Upon entering the Mêlée Island General Store:
Standard Dialogue:
Keep your hands off the display cases! I just polished them.
What do you have for sale?
Well, all my wares are right here on display, save for the reserved stuff. Feel free to browse around. But don't touch anything!
I don't suppose you accept gold?
You 'don't suppose' correctly. I deal in Pieces o' Eight, just like everybody else here on Mélée Island!
And before you ask, no, I don't offer credit. Find me some silver or you'll be going home empty-handed.
What about some kind of trade?
Nice try, but I don't think so. This is a general store, not a pawnbroker!-
-

-
I'm surprised you're open.
Well, money's still money no matter what time it is.
Besides, leaving your store unattended on an island full of pirates is usually considered a bad idea.
You have no idea how many swords, shovels and other nautical accessories I had 'go missing' when I was out running my errands!
Now, there was a time when I might have taken a moonlight stroll to go and see...
Wait... That's nobody else's business! Harrumph!-

-
I'm here to pick up my uniform.
Oh, so you're the new cook for the Scumm Bar? Nice job burning down that cargo ship.
Well, the costume was never paid for, so if you still have a job to go to, you'll need to settle the bill. You best hurry, before somebody else makes me an offer...
There's a chest over there you can use to change clothes. Free of charge for paying customers...
What, turn my back so that you can pocket whatever's in my safe? You must think I was born yesterday...-

When Examining the Chef's Uniform:
That's a special order. Some kind of cook uniform for the Scumm Bar. Probably just a big apron and a silly hat, I expect, but I want rid of it. Are you buying?
When Examining the Gunpowder Fuses:
Those are fuses. You just put one end in something explosive, you set fire to the other end and put your finders in your ears. Try not to blow yourself up, fancy-pants.
When Examining the Mighty Pirate Sword:
That's the Mighty Pirate Sword used by the Legend of Monkey Island! Well, it's a deluxe hand-made replica anyway.
Got some fresh stock coming in... eventually.
When Examining the Rubber Chicken with a Pulley in the Middle:
That's the Rubber Chicken with a Pulley in the Middle: Ultimate Collector's Edition.
It's modelled on the famous contraption used by the Legend of Monkey Island! Sold out right now, though.
The Quest for Guybrush
Upon entering the Mêlée Island General Store:
Standard Dialogue: (Fourth dialogue is unlocked after speaking with Corina and the Pirate Leaders)
Welcome back, fancy-pants! I hope you brought more money than last time.
Got any special offers?
As a matter of fact, I do. I'm trialLing something called BOSGOF - Buy One, Shipmates Get One Free. It's a way to encourage pirate crews to buy my wares.
So everyone in a crew gets one of their own?
You're a quicke one, aren'tcha? You just reached out and hit that nail right on the head.
That seems awfully generous...
Well, my stock of Mighty Pirate Swords haven't exactly been flying off the shelves. I'm sick of tripping over them every five minutes.
I wish pirates still cared about the Three Trials. Then I could make some space in my storeroom.-

-
-
Who's the best fighter around here?
Well, most folks'd say it's the Legend of Monkey Island, and maybe they're right, but I won't hear a bad word said about the Sword Master.
She lives a way out in the forest, though, so good luck getting to meet her.
Could you take me to her?
Eh.. Well, the thing about that is... The main... You see, she and I... I mean no. No, I couldn't. Now are you going to buy something or what?-
-
-
-
Got any more gunpowder fuses?
Nope, I've been forbidden from selling them after the last bunch were used to organise a jailbreak.
Now, who was it that just so happened to come along and buy all my fuses right before that happened? Oh, that's right... YOU.
I should probably turn you over to the Governor for treasonous behavior - but then I'd lose my only customer...-
-
-
-
I'm low on funds. Do you offer credit?
Not unless you've got something real valuable to use as collateral, and I can already tell by your outfit that you don't.
But I do have a few spare Notes of Credit lying around. If you can get one signed by someone in good standing - someone like the Governor - we'll talk.
After giving him the Signed Credit Note:
When Examining the Mighty Pirate Sword:
That's the Mighty Pirate Sword used by the Legend of Monkey Island! Well, it's a deluxe hand-made replica anyway.
If you want to be taken seriously by the Sword Master of Mêlée Island, this is the cutlass you need.
When Examining the Rubber Chicken with a Pulley in the Middle:
That's the Rubber Chicken with a Pulley in the Middle: Ultimate Collector's Edition.
It's modelled on the famous contraption used by the Legend of Monkey Island! Just don't blame me if you break your damn neck using it to zip around all over the place.
