Have no fear. I'm the Endministrator of Endfield Industries.
It's alright. Your efforts will pay off.
Sure. Someone told me it's scrap data. I'll scan you a copy.
Why didn't you evac?
Don't worry. There are hardly any LBs nearby.
No. The crisis is still ongoing.
Someone asked me to retrieve a data file.
A scientist named Kitt.
Yeah, but ... I also read your work diary.
You are troubled by your research.
I understand. Your secret is safe with me.
A crew mate like you, who stayed despite the dangers.
Sorry, but I must leave with this data file.
I found some data related to your research. Wanna look?
Who ... who the hell are you...?
End... Endministrator...? Oh thank Talos! Someone actually came to this place. I'm Harper, a UWST scientist.
My research... A lifetime of blood and sweat... They're all here. I can't leave them unattended.
I'm ready to die for them! If the LBs come here, they'll have to reckon with me!
Really? Does that mean that I can get ... started on my research again?
Ugh. Fine.
Retrieve a data file? Who asked you to do that?
Got it. But you can't retrieve the files from my place.
This research is really important. I locked the files and even I can't make a copy of them.
The file will also destroy itself if someone attempts to remove it.
Ah... So... I guess you sort of ... found out.
I'm so close... SO CLOSE! SO FRIGGIN' CLOSE to success!
I cannot give up! I've committed my entire career and reputation on this thing!
Please, Endmin... Will you ... keep it a secret for me?
Oh, thank you so much... I promise! I'm really *THAT* close!
I won't waste the second chance you gave me, Endmin! I swear!
Ugh. Fine. All the data files are here...
There it goes... Years of my blood, sweat, and tears...
I hope so. I hope they don't shelve this project.
Alright. Let me take a look...
This prototype... It's really different from what I have in mind! Wha ... Why didn't I think of this?
This prototype just gave me a jolt of inspiration! I can totally take another shot at this! Endmin! Can you ... give this to me? I really need it for reference!
Scrap data...? The project owners probably ended up like me. The bottleneck probably trapped them for too long...
I'll also give a copy of my research. Someone must bring a complete backup safely out of this place.
