Listen, if you don’t want to wait for the ferry, I can take you to Province Bay tonight, for a small fee.
How does a 1000 caps sound? Beats waiting, that’s for sure.

Sorry, not interested.
Suit yourself. Just saying, last guy who waited for the ferry to arrive damn near starved to death.
You ride with me, we leave A-S-A-P. Hell, I’ll even throw in a box of cram to keep your stomach from grumbling.

I’ll think about it.
(repeat above)

(About Province Bay) What is this place?
Province Bay? You got ears don’t you? Just listen to the radio. Worth every cap if you ask me.

You’ve got a deal.
Good. I’d shake on it, but unlike you, I know where my hands have been. Follow me.

To be honest, I didn’t think you’d pay. You’re either stinking rich, pretty damn lucky, or both.
See, Province Bay? It’s hardly a paradise. In fact, the whole island is run by pirates. But not all of ’em are savages.
Now, if you take the ferry? Well, you end up on the ass end of the island without so much as a tissue to wipe it.
But if you come with me, I’ll dock you at Port Royal. Pirates there are civilized. Well, so much as one can be.

There she is. Province Bay. A lot of legends around this place.
My personal favorite is the one about the ol’ Pirate King and his buried cache.

Of course, if I were you, I wouldn’t step more than five feet outside of town without a dozen fat men and a medic.
Especially seeing as you’re the type of high rolling motherfucker who pays 1000 caps for a boat. I reckon a guy like that probably doesn’t fight his own battles. /I reckon a gal like that doesn’t fight her own battles.
But hey, that’s none of my business.

All right, here we are. Any last words? Ha, I’m just fucking with you, I don’t care if you die. After all, I already got your caps! But if you need a ride back to town, just put the money in the bucket.

Brought us another barnacle, Jacob?

You know how it is, Bonnie, they just stick to my boat.

So there’s a lot of upkeep going on right now?
Pretty much. Things have gone to shit around here, so much so we even let an asshole like Jacob here set up shop.

Hey! Is that any way to treat a paying customer?

Sorry Jacob, just telling it like it is. You’re a thieving, sneaky asshole, and I don’t trust you.

Like I said, let your money do the talking. The bucket knows all, sees all. Mostly, it sees you back in the Commonwealth.

If take the “Evil” route

You looking for a ride back to the Commonwealth? I’ll take you, for a 1000 caps. Just put the money in the bucket and we’ll be on our way.
