Mass Effect 2: LEGENDARY EDITION - Tali's trial (paragon speech)

Tali's loyalty mission

[@MaxRavenclaw]

"With all due respect, Admiral, I didn't represent one of your people. I represented one of mine." That has to be the best bloody line in the trial.

[@TheInFAMOUS-ym4ob]

It's one of the best lines it the series for me

[@Iceflkn]

He body-slammed them with...acceptance!

[@ladyselin35]

What did Ashley said about '' with all due respect '' ? :D

[@enigmaticspace7578]

I always take the 'rally the crowd' option and this for the finale. The paragon speech is all fine and dandy, but the support Tali gets from Veetor and Kal'Reeger is just too good to pass up. And with this dialogue as the finale due to Sheperd being the only person who's on Tali's side right from the beginning? I believe these two options are the best combination of choices.

[@javac9158]

This scene/mission gives me chills. Just hearing someone stand up so passionately for someone they care about is so endearing. You can feel the awe and knowing Tali was shocked by this feels so good.

[@Charles-zl1ue]

Shepard literally pulled a Phoenix Wright for Tali

That line at 13:45 "I got better. I got you" gets me every time

I couldn't help but immediately laugh following that wholesomeness as Shepard immediately goes, "THIS IS VALUABLE."

There's a ship called Waifu?

@@StuntcatTV No, but I would take that ship if it did

Awwe

[@claydogg234]

The paragon speech at the trial is canon as far as I'm concerned. It just makes sense from a narrative perspective.

[@flybynight8119]

“I was sending disabled Geth to the flotilla when I got accused of treason! I better call Shepard!”

[@demogorgon1856]

"Hi, I'm Sheperd Goodman, did you know that you have rights? Quarian laws says you do, and so do I I believe until proven guilty, every Female, male and juvenile Quarian is innocent. That's I fight for you Migrant Fleet!"

[@danielhaire6677]

For me in playthroughs, Tali always seemed like that little sister you had to protect. This here was big brother Shepherd laying down the law.

[@doctorpringles12]

Very happy for your playthrough, but us Talimancers envision and headcanon this as the climactic moment where Tali realizes that her trust and bond with Shepard is something she now truly values, and her hidden feelings (even when atm seemingly unreciprocated) felt elevated and validated, and vows to have his back for as long as they live, even if she keeps her crushing in check to not expect him fo return them. Unanticipated she was however of the bond she never imagined they would have… and the rest is history ;). (Sorry if I sound like some cheesy Fanfic-writer, please don’t sue me)

[@danielhaire6677]

@@doctorpringles12 Fair enough. Either romantic or sibling, though, the Love between the two ensures that Shepherd will annihilate anything before he allows her to be cashiered for the Quarian politics.

[@ricardoramirez5634]

Yeah I feel the same, I won’t begrudge the Tali lovers because Tali is so damn pure and loyal, but she’s always struck me as the perfect little sister to protect, plus I love that you can wingman Garrus and Tali and have them end up together in me3

[@maestrrsantarael6590]

Well, you can imagine anything, but the bottom line is that even if you don't have a romance with her, you can find out that she has been in love with Shep since ME1. And if there is, then Liara will confirm it(literally said that she has been waiting for this since the moment Shepard took her aboard the Normandy).

[@svprememe]

I'd recognise Secretary-General Avasarala's voice anywhere

[@filmmisanthrope0657]

Love how Admiral Koris flinched when Shepard slammed his fist down

[@moviemaker199]

Honestly, for someone who knows what Koris is like in ME3 (even from someone like me who’s never played ME3 yet), I felt bad for him in that scene in retrospect. Yes, I do think his antagonistic attitude towards Tali was unnecessary, but he’s just forced into this mess because he’s an admiral. In ME3, as much as he wants others to sympathize with the Geth and rightfully so, Koris shows how much he cares for his own kind, if not more so, than the Geth. Such as, for example, willing to sacrifice himself to save his crew and desperately tries tovreach them if you choose him over them. He even expressed it himself when you talk to him in person after the first hearing such as looking for a new planet to call home instead of facing total and inevitable disaster for the Quarians. Koris is one of my favorite Quarians in all of Mass Effect for that reason. This is a guy who knows _exactly_ what he’s doing for the good of everything and everyone.

[@arhangeo]

THIS IS VALUABLE! lol

[@Kobaneko2005]

Anyone who doesn't choose "She's with me" is a fool and deserves the Morinth Ending.

[@darkpaladinlanceramessesii5719]

I love it when Koris call objections. On having a Human involved in Quarian affairs. Then Raan step in. By the law of the Quarian. Shepherd is involved as he is the Captain since Tali last name is changed by Koris

[@KitsubeFox]

I always get emotional in this loyal mission (like Garrus loyalty). And still crack me up hearing Shepard say: This is valuables or This is useful

[@FallenPasha]

I have never heard the polite version of this dialogue because I always got angry and told them off! Nice video, thanks.

[@demogorgon1856]

Better Call Shepard

[@yo10057]

This is valuable.

[@cheese2848]

Best Renegade misson as its just basically Shepard saying fuck you to formalities, and not even letting the Admirals speak before telling them to shut the hell up.

[@falafel1980]

What I love about this game is that when I brought Legion to the trial everyone’s reactions were a consequence of that. A side mission that I’m sure some missed not only becomes a companion but his place in the world changes how others react. The developers put actual thought in the world and mechanics while others fail to do anything deep. It’s my first time playing and it’s one of my favorites of all time so far

[@BakuganVeteran]

How many paragon bars do I need for this?

what weapon is that on shepard back ?

[@JerryIrina]

How do I get this option as I only got we don’t have evidence and did the mission right and still got a different end of the trial so I ended it and it looks like I can’t get to be with Tali so guess I’ll be doing it all over again from a new game save

[@googleisevil8958]

Could be you didn't have enough paragon points.

[@Xolcm]

If you don't have enough Paragon or Renegade points, you can instead choose to rally the crowd, but it will only work if you previously let Tali take Veetor instead of letting Cerberus take him, and have Kal'Reegar survive Tali's recruitment mission.

[@felipedominguez4764]

Tali: Thank you, Captain😢😍 Shepard: This is value🤑

[@ElodieHiras]

So, Paragon Shepard's defense of Tali is effectively calling for a mistrial by pointing out this is more politically motivated trial than a fact finding inquiry?

[@jmlaw8888]

Just after one of the few heartwarming, character driven and well written moments in an otherwise overrated corridor TPS whack-a-mole fest of a game- Shepard: "T H I S I S V A L U A B L E."
