Dialogue from Bustin' Out
A collection of Giuseppi's dialogue in The Sims: Bustin' Out. Not yet complete, but this is what we have so far.
- Introduction
Hey hey. I'm Giuseppi Mezzoalto, business man and family guy. You need something, anything at all, I can get it... even if it belongs to someone else.
- Moving to the clock tower
-
Player Sim
Can you help me move?
-
Giuseppi
Can I? Or will I? Two very different questions, bro. Sure I CAN, but unless you got some simoleons, I won’t. Assuming you do though, let’s get crackin’!
-
Player Sim
I didn’t mean right this second...
-
Giuseppi
Cool bro, whatever, you come TALK when you’re serious... I might even stick around. Now scram.
-
- Ready to move?
-
Player Sim
I’m almost ready but...
-
Player Sim
Okay, I am ready.
-
Giuseppi
Are you kidding?! I have things to do, bro, and no time to waste with deadbeats like you. Now beat it.
-
Giuseppi
Rock and roll. Everything will be waitin’ for you in the <NEW PLACE>. Now, you can keep that CRATE for as long as you want and I’ll nab it when you’re done... but the SLOWER you move, the MORE it will COST, you dig?
-
- When moving
-
Giuseppi
Congratulations! I took the liberty of crating up your stuff and moving it to the new place. Unpack that crate fast... ’cause it’s mine and I charge weekly for it. Got it?
-
- Opening the steam tunnels
-
Player Sim
Sure would be nice to have a car in this town.
-
Giuseppi
Nicer still to have a kickin’ Van like mine, bro, but we can’t all be so lucky can we? But hey, if you’re looking to get somewhere quick, you should find one of the entrances to the STEAM TUNNELS running beneath the city.
-
Player Sim
A ’boss van’?
-
Giuseppi
If you’re thinking of buying one like this, forget it, man. This town’s not big enough to hold two vans as boss as mine. And neither is this game-cartridge.
-
Player Sim
Are you just messing with me?
-
Giuseppi
Man, would I lie? I recommend you get yourself a giant CROWBAR. And maybe the BLUEPRINTS that the city used to keep in the old CLOCK TOWER. Look for a trap door maybe. I mean, I know you’ve lived there for a while now, but I wouldn’t be surprised if you haven’t seen it yet.
- After opening the steam tunnels...
-
Player Sim
I opened the steam tunnels. Thanks!
-
Giuseppi
Excellent! I’ll talk to my guys and get those tunnel barricades removed. Now you can get from one end of this town quickly and easily, without being seen and- Hey... that give me an idea. *snicker* Beat it! I have work to do.
-
- Moving to the beach house
-
Player Sim
I need your help again.
-
Giuseppi
What? You’re moving again? Already? Boy you must be rolling in Simoleons or something, yeah?
-
Player Sim
No, I’m still moving on up.
-
Player Sim
Yeah, you could say I’m doing well.
-
Giuseppi
That’s too bad. Maybe you should get into my line of work.
-
Giuseppi
Really? I’ll have to stop by sometime... when you aren’t home! HA HA HA! I’m kidding, man, seriously.
-
Giuseppi
Anyway, you know the drill. The CRATE stays at your place, at your expense, until you say so. Let me know when you are ready to roll...
-
- Moving to the mansion at Imperial Estates
-
Player Sim
I’m moving to the mansion!
-
Giuseppi
Are you kidding me!? Now I KNOW you’re livin’ large, <Player Sim>! Don’t deny it.
-
Player Sim
No way, I can barely pay my bills.
-
Player Sim
Heck yeah! Now I’m richer than Daddy Bigbucks!
-
Giuseppi
Well if it isn’t you, then that Uncle of yours must be footing the bill. I had no idea your family was so... cozy.
-
Giuseppi
No kidding?! Well alright. I hope you’ll invite your dear friend Giuseppi over when you’re all moved in. Yeah?
-
Giuseppi
Anyway, I’ll be around when you are ready...
-
- Offering Giuseppi a gift
-
Giuseppi
No way, pal. Giuseppi doesn’t want that kind of stuff, got it?
-
- Delivering something for Giuseppi
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
- (Briefcase description) "The briefcase is locked, very heavy, and has a strange smell to it."
-
- Delivering something to Giuseppi on time
-
Giuseppi
For me? Hmmmm... suspicious. Oh well, here’s <Amount> Simoleons. Now get lost.
-
- Requesting a hug
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
Sorry, not into that.
-
- Requesting a kiss
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
Nope, I’ve gotten plenty today already, baby.
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
From you? No way.
-
- Request to be roommates
-
Player Sim
Want to move in with me?
-
Giuseppi
Move in with you? Why? You a cop? No way, man.
-
- Pissing him off too much
-
Giuseppi
That’s it! You’re in trouble! If you talk to me again, I’m calling a professional.
-
- Conversations
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
Is that a fact?
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
Well aren’t you something special?
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
Are you still here?
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
You don’t like the way I do business? Scram!
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
Sounds like an interesting opportunity, if you know what I mean. What else?
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
Ah, the sweet smell of success!
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
Hey! ✽
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
Oooh... you’re naughty, aren’t you?
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
Yeah, everyone’s heard that one.
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
Yeah, well... I’ll let it slide this time.
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
Hey man, that means a lot to me. I mean it.
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
Make my day, kid.
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
The more you know, kid, the more you won’t WANT to know.
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
Who doesn’t? Am I right?
-
Player Sim
-
Giuseppi
Who me? No way. I’m an honest citizen through and through.
-
- We missed recording the reply...
-
Player Sim
-
- Dialogue about Giuseppi...
-
Player Sim
-
- Help with joining a band
-
Player Sim
Do you know where a band can jam or where I can get a cool guitar?
-
Giuseppi
I think I can get a guitar for you... check the back of my van.
-
- Caught in the act
- The player can have this conversation with Vera Vex after joining her band.
-
Player Sim
Are you going to band practice tomorrow?
-
Vera Vex
What did you say to me? Are you trying to be funny or something?
-
Player Sim
Um... no. Why?
-
Vera Vex
Ah, sorry about that. I’m a bit on edge. My guitar was stolen this morning, and I know exactly who did it. Only problem is, I can’t convince the cops because they trust me less than they trust the guy that did it.
-
Player Sim
Oh, let me guess, let me guess!
-
Vera Vex
What do you think this is, <Player Sim>, a game? I’m not kidding around. That snake Giuseppi Mezzoalto who sells hot property out of his car. I’ll bet he’s selling my guitar as we talk.
-
Player Sim
What should we do?
-
Vera Vex
I don’t know about you, but I want to track that guy down and run him out of town... but you... I guess you could get a CAMERA and snap a PHOTO of him stealing something. And you should convince Detective DAN D. MANN to join you, otherwise it won’t be legal.
-
The player can obtain a camera:
(FotoFlash Camera description) "Nothing like a FotoFlash to capture the moment by surprising your subject in its native surroundings and blind it long enough for a clean getaway!"
The player can also talk with Detective Dan D. Mann...
-
Player Sim
Detective, that Giuseppi Mezzoalto is up to no good!
-
Dan D. Mann
Is he? I had a feeling he would come to no good. What’s he up to?
-
Player Sim
Theft!
-
Player Sim
Larceny!
-
Player Sim
Stealing!
-
Dan D. Mann
I KNEW it! Ah, but this is a very serious accusation, <Player Sim>. I can’t arrest him without solid proof. If you can CATCH him doing an evil deed, then we can nab him. If you get a PHOTOGRAPH, I’ll take it from there!
- The player can then confront Giuseppi in the middle of, er, rearranging Uncle Hayseed’s house.
-
Player Sim
Smile!
-
Player Sim
Say Cheese!
-
Player Sim
Can I take your picture?
-
Giuseppi
What the-? Hey kid, give me that camera!
- Detective Dan takes Giuseppi away in handcuffs, and the player can report back to Vera Vex.
-
Player Sim
We caught Giuseppi Mezzoalto in the act!
-
Vera Vex
You did? Is my guitar safe? If that two-timing sleaze ball did anything to my guitar I’m going to break into jail just to break his arms!
- If you are on good enough terms with him, Giuseppi's relationship with the player goes up.
