The Last Express (1997 Video Game)

Robert Vallerga: Trainmaster

Quotes 

• Trainmaster : Monsieur, can I help you?

  Robert Cath : Yes, I wanted to get something out of my suitcase.

  Trainmaster : The baggage car is off-limits to passengers. Suitcases cannot be opened during the journey.

  Robert Cath : Not even by you.

  Trainmaster : The baggage compartment is sealed, Monsieur. In this way, passengers on the Orient Express are spared the inconvenience of customs checks. Now, I really must invite you to return to the passenger car.

• [repeated line] 

  Trainmaster : Premier service... premier service... Le dîner est servi dans le wagon-restaurant. Dinner is served in the restaurant car.

• Conductor #1 : [entire conversation is in French]  Good evening, sir.

  Trainmaster : Good evening, Coudert. Have you forgotten something?"

  Conductor #1 : I don't think so, sir.

  Trainmaster : The passenger list perhaps?

  Conductor #1 : But... didn't Mr. Mertens give it to you?

  Trainmaster : My nephew?

  Conductor #1 : He said he would take it to you. That was over an hour ago... That's strange.

  Trainmaster : Ah! Perhaps it was my mistake.

  Conductor #1 : Then he did give it to you!

  Trainmaster : What I mean to say is, I didn't realize he was responsible for both lists. That no doubt explains it. Thank you, Coudert.

  Conductor #1 : Of course, sir.

• Conductor #2 : [If Cath "borrows" the passenger list, entire conversation is in French]  Good evening, Uncle.

  Trainmaster : Have you forgotten something?

  Conductor #2 : Er... no... you must mean the passenger list... Well, I can't seem to find it anywhere.

  Trainmaster : You can't find it? What?

  Conductor #2 : It was here in my magazine, I had it all ready to bring it to you. I can't imagine it fell out, but I've looked everywhere.

  Trainmaster : And Coudert's?

  Conductor #2 : They were together.

  Trainmaster : This is too much. What will I say in my report? My lazy, incompetent nephew, who only got this job because I backed him, lost the passenger lists for both sleeping cars? I think you'd better find that list before we reach Budapest.

  Conductor #2 : Yes, Uncle. I'm sorry, Uncle. It must be here somewhere.

  Trainmaster : When I was your age I was your age I was still carrying bags. Kids today, life is too easy for them. They don't appreciate anything.

• Conductor #2 : [If Cath returns the passenger list, entire conversation is in French]  Ah! Uncle. Good news. I found the list.

  Trainmaster : Where was it?

  Conductor #2 : Ah... in my magazine where I put it. I don't know how I missed it. I looked and looked and gave up. Then I turned the page and there it was!

  Trainmaster : Unbelievable! You're an even bigger dunce than I thought. I was running around in circles trying to figure how to get out of this. Listen, not a word about this to Coudert, understood?

  Conductor #2 : Of course, Uncle. I'm sorry, you can't imagine. It won't happen again.

  Trainmaster : And for the last time, stop calling me Uncle!
