** In the ''Old World Blues'' DLC, confronting Dr Borous with the food bowl belonging to his dog Gabe - arguably the only creature who loved him unconditionally - will cause him to feel uncomfortable as he thinks about the horrible experiments he subjected his pet to. If you actually spell out what he's feeling, he'll intentionally suppress those thoughts and go on with his unethical ways, but if you refrain from doing so and let him stew in the unfamiliar feelings for a while, he'll adopt a a more nurturing outlook, both in regards to his experiments and to you.
