Well, that was fun. You know, it's the little things like normal clothes and non-irradiated living conditions that you really miss when you get dumped into wastelands.

If anyone needs me, I'm going to be drinking water and then catching up on some sleep.

[Private to Costigan]

How're things?

[Private to Wally]

How was life on the good ship Barge?

[Private to Donny]

Better or worse then zombie port?

[Private to Hayley]

Hey.

I'm going out of my fucking mind, guy. I almost died and it fucking hurts all the time. If you can't give me some painkillers, at least give me some fucking valium.

Private

[batmanschmatman]

Bill, come on. You know why I can't.

Private

[lostundercover]

You can control my doses. I'm not going to get addicted again.

If you're not going to give me anything? I'd rather kill myself and deal with a stab wound than this fucking throat shit.

Private

[batmanschmatman]

If you kill yourself, I'm taking the knife and you're not getting it back. That was part of the deal.

Private

[lostundercover]

You refuse to let me have any pills, I'll figure it out for myself. You prevent me from figuring it out, I'll find someone else. You want me to fear for my life? I will fucking end anything we have together.

Private

[batmanschmatman]

Why would I want you to fear for your life? Do you seriously want to start using again?

Private

[lostundercover]

Your little threat to take the knife away? Like I give a shit? All that is is wanting me to be afraid.

I want some fucking relief from the pain, asshole.

Private

[batmanschmatman]

No it's not, it's me not wanting you to hurt yourself. Give me some credit.

And I said I could give you some ibuprofen. Valium's not an option.

Private

[lostundercover]

Ibuprofen won't do shit. Xanax, Percoset.. something. Work with me here guy.

Private

[batmanschmatman]

Costigan, no. I know you're in pain, but I know you can get through it.

[He switches on the video feed.] Let me see the bruises.

Fuck you. I'm done with your "for the greater good" bullshit.

Private - audio

[batmanschmatman]

What bullshit?

Private - audio Aww, emo Dick.

[lostundercover]

You, guy.

Private - audio YOU ARE CRUSHING HIS SOUL, COSTIGAN ;;

[batmanschmatman]

Costigan, this isn't bullshit. And this isn't even a "for the greater good" thing. I don't want you getting hooked on something else or killing yourself because I don't want you to hurt yourself. That's it. There's no secret motive, this isn't me following some set of rules I'm supposed to follow. Give me some credit.

Private - audio

[lostundercover]

You won't even consider anything. You're just saying no. You're being ridiculous.

Private - audio

[batmanschmatman]

... Let me get some sleep and I'll get back to you, okay?

Private - audio

[lostundercover]

Sure.

[batmanschmatman]

Thanks.
