(Shepard goes down into the cargo hold and he finds Grunt pacing around impatiently)
Shepard: Chambers said you were tearing the place up. Is something wrong?
Grunt: Something is wrong, Shepard. I feel wrong. Tense. I just want to kill something with my bare hands. More so than usual, like it's not my choice. Like I just want to... I don't know... RARGH!
(Grunt headbutts a window, cracking it)
Grunt: See? Why do that? What's wrong?
Shepard: Okeer really didn't imprint anything to help you figure this out?
Grunt: I see pictures of old battles. Voices of warlords. But this... this is a blood haze in my head. I want control. When we're moving, fighting, I focus. But here, my blood screams, my plates itch, and even you are just noise! I'm tank born. What is this?
Shepard: EDI. Is there anything in your files about krogan diseases that could cause this?
EDI: Cerberus had a number of autopsies on file, but nothing on a living krogan of this age and situation. Krogan are reluctant to share medical records
Grunt: My people were defeated by doctors and labs. They will never let stuff like that leave the homeworld, Tuchanka
Shepard: Hmm. We could use a krogan's opinion. Joker can get us to Tuchanka. I need everyone at their best
Grunt: Thank you, Shepard. I don't like this. Fury is my choice. Not a sickness
Shepard: Joker. Plot a course for Tuchanka. It's time to visit an old friend
Joker: You got it, Commander
(Joker flies the Normandy to Tuchanka)
(Shepard, Thorne, Galahad, Garrus, and Grunt all step off the shuttle, and they're met by some krogan)
Krogan: The clan leader wants to speak with you. Keep your rutting pet on a short leash. Get him the rite soon or put him down
Shepard: Just let me through. I have business to take care of
(The krogans step aside and let Shepard's squad through)
Krogan: HALT! You must wait until the clan leader summons you. He is... in talks
(The krogan leader, Urdnot Wrex is talking to another krogan named Gatatog Uvenk)
Uvenk: You know what tradition demands. Clan Urdnot must respond. Your reforms will not go unopposed. You risk appearing weak at a critical time
Wrex: Shepard?
Shepard: Wrex!
(Wrex shoves Uvenk out of the way)
Wrex: Shepard! Thorne! Garrus! My friends!
(Wrex shakes hands with his old squadmates)
Wrex: You look well for dead, Shepard. Should have known the void couldn't hold you
Thorne: It's been a long time, Wrex
Garrus: Too long
Shepard: Looks like helping us destroy Saren and the geth worked out for you
Wrex: Ha! You made the rise of Urdnot possible. Virmire was a turning point for the krogan. Though not everyone was happy about it. Destroying Saren's genophage cure freed us from his manipulation. I used that to spur the clans to unify under Urdnot
