Shiver “Nessie, aliens, or Bigfoot—which of them is REAL? Deep down, we all know the truth!”	Big Man “Ay?! (You're saying one is real...but ONLY one?!)”
Shiver “Our first choice is the famed monster from the primordial depths, Nessie herself!”
	Frye “Hold up. Seeing is believing, and so many folks around the world have seen aliens!”
	Big Man “Ay... (There's also the Bigfoot prints found on snowy mountains... but...)”
	Big Man “A-ay? (Is this really the Splatfest theme? Which fake thing exists?)”
Shiver “It is a bit odd, but... (This is it, Shiver. Time to hit 'em with your best shot!)”
Shiver “Nessie being real would explain something that happened to me not long ago.”
Shiver “Yes... it was a dark and foggy afternoon. I was just getting off of work...”	Frye “What, from a Grizzco shift?”
Shiver “I glanced over at the ocean to see a long, thin THING slithering out from the water!”	Big Man “AAAAAAY! (AAAAAAH!)”
	Frye “Oh yeah, I've seen that. But Nessie comes from a lake, right? Not the sea.”
Shiver “Wait, you're sure you saw Nessie? (Whatever I saw, it wasn't THAT!)”
	Frye “Tell you what else I've seen... real aliens! There was a UFO at the Crater, big as life!”
	Frye “I didn't see it up close, but it was metal and flying for sure. With fierce-looking fists!”
Shiver “That sounds so familiar...”
	Big Man “Ay! (C'mon, you two, quit telling tall tales!)”
Frye “Whaddaya mean tall tales?! Let's hear your story, Big Man!”
	Big Man “Ay. (It's so scary, but OK. I was out skiing when I found a huge footprint in the snow.)”
	Big Man “Ay! (Afterward, folks say they saw a big, fuzzy shadow on the slopes. B-Bigfoot!)”
Frye “Whoa, you're shaking. Either you're actually scared... or you're a TERRIBLE liar.”
Shiver “Even if what he said is true—and it is not—Nessie is cuter and realer than the rest.”
	Frye “I'm still Team Aliens! I wanna get in the ring with that UFO and see what it's made of!”
	Big Man “Ay?! (If Bigfoot's not real, why am I so afraid of it?!)”
Shiver “And that's all for now. Make sure to get your votes in!”	Big Man “Ay! Ay. (Don't forget to equip your Splatfest Tee! Check the equip menu after you vote.)”

Haya “Nessie, ruimtewezens of Bigfoot? Welke bestaat er ECHT? Nou, zeg het maar!” (Nessie, extraterrestrials or Bigfoot? Which one REALLY exists? Well, tell us!)	Ray “Ay... Ay?! (Wacht, maar... Waarom zou er eentje daarvan bestaan, en de rest niet?!)” (Ay... Ay?! (Wait, but... Why should one of them exist, and the rest don't?!))
Haya “Onze eerste kandidaat is het fameuze monster uit de duistere dieptes van het loch, Nessie!” (Our first candidate is the famous monster from the dark depths of the loch, Nessie!)
	Muriël “Ja, zeg. Zien is geloven. En er zijn elke dag wel meldingen van ruimtewezens en ufo's!” (Oh, please. Seeing is believing. And there are reports of extraterrestrials and UFOs every day!)
	Ray “Ay... (Tja, en er zijn op besneeuwde berghellingen ook sporen van Bigfoot gevonden...)” (Ay... (Well yeah, and traces of Bigfoot have also been found on snowy mountain slopes...))
	Ray “Ay? Ay? (Maar is dat echt waar dit Splatfest om gaat? Welk nepding bestaat?)” (Ay? Ay? (But is that really what this Splatfest is about? Which fake thing exists?))
Haya “O, meneer Ray weet het weer beter, zeker? (Wacht maar, hij zal zo wel anders piepen!)” (Oh, Mister Big Man knows better again, doesn't he? (Just wait, he'll change his tune in no time!))
Haya “Als Nessie niet bestaat, verklaar dit dan maar eens...” (If Nessie doesn't exist, then explain this...)
Haya “Het was een druilerige en mistige namiddag, en ik kwam net terug van mijn werk...” (It was a drizzly and foggy afternoon, and I had just returned from work....)	Muriël “Wacht, Haya... Bedoel je dat je terugkwam van het Salmonietenjagen?” (Wait, Shiver... You mean you came back from Salmonid hunting?)
Haya “Ik keek uit over de zee, en zag een lange, dunne... JOEKEL uit het water komen glibberen!” (I looked out over the sea, and saw a long, thin... WHOPPER coming slithering out of the water!)	Ray “AAAAAAY! (AAAAAAH!)” (AAAAAAY! (AAAAAAH!))
	Muriël “O ja, dat heb ik ook wel 's gezien. Maar Nessie woont in een meer, niet in de zee.” (Oh yes, I've seen that once too. But Nessie lives in a lake, not the sea.)
Haya “Wacht... Weet je zeker dat het Nessie was? (Wat ik zag, was toch echt wat anders...)” (Wait... Are you sure it was Nessie? (What I saw, however, was really something else...))
	Muriël “Tuurlijk! En weet je wat ik ook heb gezien? Een vliegende schotel in de krater!” (Sure! And you know what I also saw? A flying saucer in the crater!)
	Muriël “Ik heb het niet van dichtbij gezien, maar het was iets vliegends van metaal! Met vuisten!” (I didn't see it up close, but it was something that flew and made of metal! With fists!)
Haya “O, dat klinkt me bekend in de oren...” (Oh, that sounds familiar to me...)
	Ray “Ay! (Kom op, hou nou eens op met het verzinnen van sprookjes!)” (Ay! (Come on, just stop making up fairy tales!))
Muriël “O ja hoor, sprookjes. En jij hebt nooit iets geheimzinnigs meegemaakt, zeker?” (Oh, yeah, sure, fairy tales. And you've never experienced anything mysterious, I suppose?)
	Ray “Ay... Ay... (Nou ja... Ik heb wel een enorme voetafdruk gevonden tijdens het skiën...)” (Ay... Ay... (Well okay... I did find a huge footprint while skiing...))
	Ray “Ay. A-Ay! (En later hoorde ik verhalen over een pluizige schaduw op de berg. B-Bigfoot!)” (Ay. A-Ay! (And later I heard stories of a fluffy shadow on the mountain. B-Bigfoot!))
Muriël “Ray, je staat te rillen! Van angst, of omdat je ontzettend staat te jokkebrokken?” (Ray, you're shivering! From fear, or because you're lying horribly?)
Haya “Ook al spreekt hij de waarheid, en dat doet ie niet, dan is Nessie nog schattiger dan de rest!” (Even if he speaks the truth—and he doesn't—Nessie is still cuter than the rest!)
	Muriël “Ik ben Team Ruimtewezens! En die schotel met z'n vuisten durf ik ook wel aan!” (I'm Team Extraterrestrials! And I dare to take on that saucer with its fists too!)
	Ray “Ay?! (Als Bigfoot niet echt is, waarom ben ik er dan zo bang van?!)” (Ay?! (If Bigfoot is not real, why am I so afraid of it!))

Trivia

• In the announcement dialogue, Frye references The Crater and the Octobot King L3.Gs, suggesting this Splatfest takes place after the events of Return of the Mammalians.
  • Additionally the long, thin creature "slithering out from the water" that Shiver mentions is likely a Horrorboros.
