br_tele_01	What?
br_tele_02	What's the meaning of this? (Same as retail.)
br_tele_03	Who are you? (Same as retail.)
br_tele_04	Where did you come from?
br_tele_05	How did you get in here? (Same as retail.)
br_tele_06	Help! Help, now!
br_tele_07	Is that?... Can that be who I think it is?
br_tele_08	Is it? Aren't you... Gordon Freeman.
br_tele_09	Guards! Guards! In here, now!
br_tele_10	Hold it, there!
br_significant	This is a significant development. As soon as I hear from my contact, we can make our move. The only potential drawback is that man, the one I saw! (Retail retains the filename, but the text is different.)

br_disturb	We've been receiving disturbing security alerts from your area. (Retail only features the end of the sentence.)
br_overzealous	The soldiers were a bit overzealous, I admit, but he was too tempting a prize to simply turn loose, especially in the absence of Gordon Freeman. (Same as retail.)
br_loyalties	We weren't entirely sure you were ever going to get around to that, human loyalties being what they are. (Same as retail.)
br_blinded	I have known Dr. Vance far longer than you, my dear. I'm afraid your feelings for him may have blinded you to some simple realities. He's entirely too stubborn ever to— (Longer than in retail.)
br_believe	He will never believe what you and I believe. And as for those who follow him, well, the only certain way to change their minds is to revitalize, reeducate and reintegrate them.
br_leeway01	This is not open to debate, Dr. Mossman. (Same as retail.)
br_leeway02	I will allow some leeway. This time. Because I know that emotion still has its hold on you.
br_leeway03	Your intentions are noble, but your assessment of the situation is... lacking!
br_leeway04	Frankly, I'm a bit disappointed that someone in your position—
br_leeway05	Well, I can't tell you how to improve your performance. Only you know what you need to do. But I'm sure you're even more disappointed in yourself than I am.
br_outoftime	So sorry, Judith. I'm all out of time. (Same as retail.)

Confrontation and escape for Gordon, Alyx, Eli, Judith and Breen in and from Breen's office.

br_oheli01, br_oheli02	Ooh... Eli.
br_oheli03	If only you could see what I've seen.
br_oheli04	You wouldn't be so shortsighted!
br_oheli05, br_oheli06	I have studied 36 zones beyond our own.
br_oheli07 to br_oheli09	Carbon stars with ancient satellites colonized by sentient fungi. Gas giants inhabited by vast meteorological intelligences. Worlds stretched thin across the membranes where [the] dimensions intersect... Impossible to describe with our limited vocabulary! (Same as retail.)
br_missvance01, br_missvance02	This must be... Miss Vance.
br_missvance03	Alyx.
br_missvance04	The last time I saw you, you were just a little slip of a thing.
br_missvance05, br_missvance06	You have your mother's eyes, my dear, but your father's stubborn nature. (Same as in retail, but rephrased.)
br_elichoice01	Eli has already made his choice.
br_elichoice02	He's decided to be one of the very last humans to die.
br_elichoice03	I wouldn't be surprised if he looked upon his suicide as an act of honor.
br_intractable01	Yes.
br_intractable02	Save your energy.
br_intractable03	I told you he'd be intractable.
br_intractable04	Once Eli has convinced himself of something, not even the truth can change his mind.
br_madepoint01	Very well.
br_madepoint02	You've made your point.
br_madepoint03	And I will keep it in mind as we go forward.
br_madepoint04	Let me just say, Judith, with so much at stake, I had hoped better of you.
br_madepoint05, br_madepoint06, br_madepoint07	I already knew you were capable of talk, but your actions show your true limitations and lack of commitment.
br_madepoint08	Now, stand aside.
br_reconsider01, br_reconsider02	Well, if you'd like to reconsider your involvement in the program, Eli, it would make a huge difference in how quickly we could make the Combine portals safe for human use.
br_reconsider03, br_reconsider04	That way, Alyx, and even yourself, might be able to travel to the Aleph Universe with your faculties intact.
br_reconsider05, br_reconsider06	That is our ultimate goal, after all, to move freely through the continuum to make our incipient immortality worthwhile.
br_redemption01, br_redemption02, br_redemption03	Judith. I'm sorry to see that you've absorbed so much of Eli's foolish idealism, but there is redemption for you in his death.
br_stubborn	There. You see? Stubborn as ever. (Retail retains the filename, but the text is different.)
br_takeit	Take it.
br_unfortunatedays01	Those unfortunate days are almost at an end. Our transformation is nearly complete.
br_unfortunatedays02	Thanks to the work you've done, which Judith will have to complete in your absence.
br_wontcompromise01, br_wontcompromise02	Don't worry, Eli. Dr. Mossman has adequate experience now to continue your work.
br_youfool	You fool! (Same as retail.)
br_youlldofine01	Don't sell yourself short, Judith. You'll do just fine.
br_youlldofine02	Of course, I was hoping you'd have the assistance of your peers.
br_youlldofine03	That's why I thought it was worth preserving Dr. Freeman for a bit longer.
br_youlldofine04	But it seems that Gordon has signed up on the wrong side, once again.
br_youlldofine05, br_youlldofine06, br_youlldofine07	As for the young Miss Vance, her talents will be put to practical use on the other side of a Combine portal after a simple medical procedure to enable her to survive the transition.

br_disturb	—from your area.

br_oheli07 to br_oheli09	Carbon stars with ancient satellites colonized by sentient fungi. Gas giants inhabited by vast meteorological intelligences. Worlds stretched thin across the membranes where [the] dimensions intersect... Impossible to describe with our limited vocabulary!
br_guest_a	Well, if it isn't Gordon Freeman, at last.
br_gravgun	What's this? Oh, put it over there.
br_guest_b	You have my gratitude, Doctor.
br_guest_c, br_guest_d	First you lead me straight to the doorstep of my oldest friend and then you deliver yourself.
br_guest_f	If I'd known you were going come straight up to my office, I wouldn't have bothered hunting you in the first place.
br_dictate_a	Having both of you in my keeping ensures I can dictate the terms of any bargain I care to make with the Combine.
br_laugh01	*laughter*
br_yesjudith	Yes, Judith, what is it?
br_rabble_a	Thanks to you, we have everything we need in that regard.
br_rabble_b	You're more than qualified to finish his research yourself.
br_rabble_c	What neither you nor I can do is convince that rabble in the streets to give up their senseless struggle.
br_rabble_d	Yet Eli refuses to speak the words that would save them all.
br_playgame_a, br_playgame_b, br_playgame_c	Eli...if you won't do the right thing for the good of all people, maybe you'll do it for one of them.
br_gift_a	That's all up to you, my old friend.
br_gift_b, br_gift_c	Will you let your stubborn short-sightedness doom the entire species, or will you give your child the chance her mother never had?
br_stubborn	Alyx my dear, you have your mother's eyes. But your father's stubborn nature.
br_farside	Really? Well, let's see how [well] it serves you on the far side of a Combine portal.
br_nopoint	Oh, it's hardly the worst. But you might find that hard to believe once you get there.
br_newleader_a	I agree, it's a total waste.
br_newleader_b	Fortunately, the resistance has shown it is willing to accept a new leader.
br_newleader_c	And this one has proven to be a fine pawn for those who control him.
br_bidder_a	How about it, Dr. Freeman?
br_bidder_b	Did you realize your contract was open to the highest bidder?
br_nothingtosay_a	I understand if you don't wish to discuss this in front of your friends.
br_nothingtosay_b	I'll send them on their way, and then we can talk openly.
br_judithwhat	Judith? What do you think you're doing?
br_guards	Guards! Get in here!
br_betrayed	They know you betrayed them. They'll turn on you! Judith — Dr. Mossman. Please!
br_youfool	You fool!
br_no	No!

Combine Advisor contact

Location: sound/vo/citadel

After the brawl at Breen's office, Alyx and Gordon find Breen talking to a Combine Advisor on a large monitor. A video of the conversation is seen in Half-Life 2: Episode One, reusing the exact same sounds.

br_deliver	It's me you should be concerned about! I can still deliver Earth, but not without your help.
br_untenable	The portal destination is untenable. Surely you can set the relay elsewhere. There's no way I can survive in that environment.
br_hostbody	A host body? You must be joking, I can't possibly—
br_whatittakes	Oh all right, damn it, if that's what it takes!
br_justhurry	Just hurry, he's right behind me!
br_ohshit	Oh shit!

Dark Fusion Reactor

Half-Life 2’s last act.

br_synapse	Dr. Freeman. You really shouldn't be out there. At the moment of synapse, as I teleport, this chamber will be bathed in deadly particles that have yet to be named by human science. Perhaps when I have the leisure to do the work myself, I'll name one after you. That way you won't be completely forgotten.
br_synapse02	When the singularity collapses, I will be far away from here. In another universe, as a matter of fact. You, on the other hand, will be destroyed in every way it is possible to be destroyed-and even in some which are essentially impossible.
br_mock05	I don't know what you can possibly hope to achieve, apart from your own annihilation.
br_mock06	I warned you this was futile.
br_mock07	I could have told you that was pointless, Dr. Freeman.
br_mock01	Are you still with us, Dr. Freeman? Not for much longer, I think.
br_mock13	If only you had harnessed your boundless energy for a useful purpose!
br_mock09	I hope you said your farewells.
br_goback	Go back, Freeman, you have no idea what you're doing!
br_unleash	You don't know what you'll unleash! You could bring down this whole Citadel! Think, man, think - of the people below!
br_failing11	No!
br_youneedme	You need me!
br_mock04	A predictable failure, Dr. Freeman. (If Breen manages to get away.)

br_mock08	It won't be much longer now, Dr. Freeman.
br_mock10	Oh, Dr. Freeman...
br_mock11	What a waste.
br_mock12	Pointless of you.
