Persuading Emilio Hadek and Consequences

Persuasion Choices and Consequences

Choice Consequences
[Persuade] How about you just give me Kelton's data now, and we skip the rest. It will give you a chance to persuade Emilio and avoid falsifying data.
Sounds fun, I like a challenge. Quest proceeds to falsify Emilio's data.

You will have a higher success rate of persuading Emilio if your background is Diplomat, Industrialist, Sculptor, or Space Scoundrel. They have a Persuasion Skill unlocked at the start of the game.

You only have three chances to fill up the Persuasion Meter and convince Emilio to hand over the data. Also, note that the choices given are random, but it will have at least one green, one yellow, and one red on each part of the persuasion process.

You can reload a save near this part, so you can try again if you fail.

Green Line +1
There has to be a way we can work this out.
Green Line +2
Handing over that data is the right thing to do.

It's better to avoid being aggressive here to succeed in persuading Emilio. You can choose the green options and play it safe until he gives in. They add lower points on the persuasion meter, but they will have more chances of succeeding.

Choices
Yellow Line+3
This isn't the way to get ahead.
Yellow Line+4
You're really starting to annoy me.

Yellow options branch out more depending on the result of your choice but will yield more persuasion points if successful. Try to choose the green one if you're close to failing to have a higher chance of succeeding!

All Red Choices

& Points
Choices
Red Line+5
This situation is volatile. That data is critical.
Red Line+6
Hand over that data. Right now.

Red choices are the most difficult to succeed, but you can persuade Emilio in one turn if you're successful. You can choose the red one in your first turn and test your luck, but try to pick a yellow or a green one if you fail to increase your chances of succeeding.
