"Sam and Alan are waiting at the clinic. I'll put up with Alan if it means getting the meds."

Characters involved[]

Walkthrough[]

Follow the marker to the Veterinary Clinic. You can drive straight there or stop at the Fork in the Road Diner first. This only slightly changes Alan's dialogue.

Alan asks you to go in first, while Sam hands you an Improvised Suppressor. Jump through a window or bash open the door to enter. Once inside, Alan and Sam will start gathering supplies as the Gathering Meter fills up. The meter pauses if zombies enter, so you must help clear them out to keep the mission progressing.

After a while, your allies finish searching and are ready to head home. You can loot the area for health items and a rucksack of medicine before leaving. Alan and Sam insist on traveling on foot to avoid zombies—if you get in a car, they won’t follow.

About halfway back, Sam's rucksack starts falling apart, and she asks you to find a vehicle so she doesn’t lose half the medicine. Alan refuses, throws a fit, and continues on foot.

Find a car, pick up Sam, and drive back to base to complete the mission.

Rewards[]

  • 35 Influence
  • 15 Medicine
  • 25 Fame (Flawless): If the player does not let any zombies inside the Vet Clinic until Sam and Alan finish gathering medicine

  • Since Sam and Alan are invincible during this mission, use them to clear Hordes, Infestations, or zombies along the way to level up your skills. Compliment Sam when she gets kills to build Trust with her.
  • Completing this mission unlocks two new missions: Mission: Army Sighting and Mission: Lily's Brother.

Dialog[]

Lily: (radio) I'm sending Alan and Sam to meet you at the clinic.
Player: Alan? Gee, thanks.
Lily: (radio) It was that, or let him stay here and keep grumbling about kicking you and Ed out.
Player: Point.

Alan and Sam waiting

Alan: (radio) Goddammit, how long are we supposed to wait around here with our thumbs up our asses?
Alan: (radio) Do me a favor and don't come driving up like a dumbass.
Sam: (radio) What Alan's trying to say is Cars make noise. Zeds like noise.
Sam: (radio) Plus, cars don't exactly grow on trees, and we only got so much fuel to keep them running. So we gotta be careful about when we use 'em.

The player arrives

Alan: About time you showed up. Let's get this show on the road. You're the newbie, so you get to bust the window in.
Sam: The door will make less noise. Or, hey, you could do it like a total fucking idiot. Up to you.
Alan: Just get us inside.

Inside the vet clinic

Alan: All right, hop to it. Let's get this done and get the hell out. Try to keep the zombies outside, huh?
Sam: And who the hell put you in charge?
Alan: How about years of experience on the beat? Huh, how's that grab you?
Sam: I didn't realize the Department of Fish and Wildlife counted as a 'beat.'
Alan: Laugh if you want, I'm still the only law enforcement officer on duty in this town.
Sam: Yeah, and if we gotta deal with any zombie trout, you'll be the first motherfucker I call.

Some time while gathering medicine

Sam: Goddamn motherfucking piece of shit!
Alan: What's wrong?
Sam: Hole in my fucking rucksack.
Alan: So tape it shut and keep loading.

Gathering complete

Sam: That's it, let's ditch this bitch and go home.
Alan: Let's hoof it, people. Stay low and stay quiet.
Alan: Bad enough we gotta make this charity run, let's not waste all our damn ammo to boot.

Outside the vet clinic

Sam: Try to keep out of their line of sight. Zeds'll come check out just about anything louder than a solid smack on the head, but their eyesight's for shit.
Sam: If they can't see you, they can't eat you.
Alan: Will you two shut up and get moving? I'm not getting paid to babysit.
Sam: Well, excuse me all to hell for trying to keep the newbie alive.

Sam's rucksack broken

Sam: Mother fuck! This piece of shit rucksack's coming apart at the seams!
Sam: At this rate I'm gonna lose half this shit before we get home!
Player: I'll go find us a ride.
Alan: No, goddammit! Cars are too dangerous, just leave it!
Sam: Kiss my ass, Alan! Lily needs these meds.
Alan: Fuck you!

On the way home with Sam

Player: So... Alan, huh?
Sam: Yeah.
Sam: He's a shithead, but look on the bright side. He's only about half as stupid as he looks.
Sam: Plus he's not half bad in a fight.

At home

Sam: We got your (SY-klo-fo-FOSS-fa-mide) cyclophophosphamide, Lily. I didn't see any of that metho-whatever.
Player: Hey! You said we were getting antibiotics for Ed.
Sam: Relax. We got those too.
Player: What the hell is going on here?
Lily: Okay, look. I've got this condition. Lupus? It's chronic. No cure. Without medication...
Lily: Your friend needs antibiotics, I need medicine, so I kinda... sent you to a place you might find both.
Player: So, you used me.
Lily: I didn't-
Player: Just let me know when you find the Doc.
