That is absolutely hilarous!

yeah Jan is funny, he's really funny if you have Minsc in your group. my favorite attempt of him trying to steal Boo was when he lied about having a horrible dream

note that this is a rough guess of what they said

Jan: oh minsc I just had a terrible dream

Minsc: what was it

Jan: I dreamed that we switched bodies. I was you and you were me.

Minsc: oh no that's terrible

Jan: no wait I don't think that that was a dream.......Give me back my hamster or feel the wrath of my mighty...BOOT!!(yeah that sounds right)

Minsc: oh no Minsc and Jan's minds are switched...wait a second, Minsc is still Minsc, Boo is still Boo, and you are still your thieving self.

Jan: rats it almost worked

the talk was much longer but I could only remember the basic idea of what happened.
Remember, being Evil in Baldur's Gate 2 is VERY fun...

UncleScratchy, you didn't finish the dialogue between Jan and Mazzy. He actually does explain why Mazzy reminds him of someone who works with potatoes, although it takes him about twenty minutes of exposition to get to the point. :)

All righty, here ya go! :)

Jan: Ah, Minsc! 'Tis truly a beautiful day, no?

Minsc: Weather is nice, maybe.

Jan: It is day to get out into the world, breathe in the fresh air.

Minsc: (grunt)

Jan: Too bad, though...

Minsc: What is too bad?

Jan: It's too bad that I won't live to enjoy it.

Minsc: What do you mean?

Jan: Hadn't you heard, old friend. I've got the Calimshan Itch. Alas, poor Jan! (sob, sob)

Minsc: An itch? Can you not scratch it?

Jan: Only death will cure this itch. I shall not live out this day. Oh, terrible powers of the heavens! Why will you let me die without granting me a final wish? Cruel, cruel fate!

Minsc: What can Minsc do to help? A tragedy, this is! I will slay those that need slaying!

Jan: I do have one final wish...no, no. I do not wish to burden my companions with my death. My teensy-weensy wish is unimportant. Travel on, good Minsc. Carry the torch and so forth.

Minsc: It is only fair, big-nosed little one. We will do all that we can to aid you.

Jan: Truly, it is a small thing. As a child I had a pet hamster, named Spanky. Those were the only pure days in my life. Every day was perfection. Oh, the pain! If I could just hold a hamster while I die, perhaps I could capture the innocence of my youth and die a happy gnome.

Minsc: You will not steal Boo from me! I know your tricks!

Jan: Tis no trick, (cough, cough). Neverthelesss, you are correct about one thing, my oafish friend. I do not deserve happiness. Please, leave me to my excruciatingly painful death. I am close now... Spanky I miss you!

Minsc: Boo shall comfort the little dying gnome for a moment. Only a moment!

Jan: Ah, thank you, Minsc. May I have a moment alone?

Minsc: Alone? No, I draw the line... hey! Stand still! I warn you!

Jan: At last Boo is mine! I cannot believe this stupid trick worked. Come, noble hamster, a life of frivolity awaits.

Minsc: I'll throttle with your own arms if you do not return him this instant! This is no longer amusing! It was never amusing! I am not laughing!

Jan: Alright, alright. It was only a jest, Minscy. I meant no harm.

Minsc: That's right, you apologize! It's hard enough keeping Boo's roaming in check without you stealing him. Bad Jan! There will be a booting if this happens again!
There's nothing a little poison couldn't cure...

What happened here was the gradual habituation of the people, ... to receiving decisions deliberated in secret; to believing that the situation was so complicated that the government had to act on information which the people could not understand, or so dangerous that, even if he people could understand it, it could not be released because of national security.
