=== Information ===
'''Robotics Engineer'''

Dr. Francois is a renowned robotics engineer, famous enough that the [[Council]] once [[Stephanie_Peebles#Save_Dr._Francois|held him captive]] in order for him to improve their robot army. Now he's laying low in Striga, hiding from his many enemies. 

=== Prior to Introduction ===

{{darkorange|This man doesn't seem worthy of your attention... for now.}}

=== Initial Contact ===

{{darkorange|This man is biting his fingernails and constantly looking over his shoulder.}}

{{Character}}! I was beginning to think you wouldn't show up. Hoping. Never mind, you're here now. I suppose you want to know all about the [[Sky Raiders]]' plan to steal the giant mech man out of the [[Council]] volcano lair?

=== Greeting ===

* What can I do for you today, boss?
* Do you have any robots you need improved?
* You'll let me go once this is all over, right? Right?
* {{darkorange|Dr. Francois fidgets nervously.}}

=== Too Busy ===

I'm terribly sorry but the things I have to tell you will demand all of your attention. Please clear your mind, and to-do list, and we'll talk.

=== No More Missions ===

; Before introducing a higher-level contact
: I don't know anything else that could possibly be useful to someone of your stature. Please, just let me go.
; After introducing a higher-level contact
: It's finally over...
