📋 About This Mod
Shortest Interrogation Ever
In the vanilla Sins of the Father quest, the option for Shepard to threaten Elias Kelham with their Spectre status is only available as a high-renegade intimidate and is not dependent on Shepard's actual Spectre status. I tweaked the line to be available to Spectre Shepards of any morality, and kept the vanilla intimidate option for non-Spectres.
Version 1. 1 adds support for non-English localizations of the game.
Compatibility:
No known incompatibilities!
Installation:
Download either with ME3Tweaks Mod Manager, or manually and drop the . 7z file into the Mod Manager. Click "Import", then find the mod in your library and click "Install". Install before .mem texture mods!
Uninstallation:

Known Issues:
None so far! If you encounter anything please let me know.
Acknowledgements:

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 873 endorsements and nearly 20k downloads.
- Gives renegade or paragon players more dialogue freedom in a key scene.
- Tiny mod that does exactly what it says—no bloat.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects one dialogue option in one interrogation scene—very narrow scope.

For Mass Effect players who want to role-play a Spectre without morality restrictions during Kelham's interrogation. Perfect for those doing a renegade playthrough but still want to pull the Spectre card. Skip if you're looking for broader dialogue overhauls—this is a one-scene fix.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you've been reinstated as a Spectre in the story before expecting the line to appear.
- If using a mod manager, load this mod after any other dialogue or morality mods to avoid conflicts.
- Test the interrogation scene early to confirm the option shows up with your current save.
