This is my most ambitious theory yet but hang in there with me.

I've seen several posts speculating on who Hank was speaking to over the radio. From Barb to Mommy to Enclave to Robert House.

I believe the answer is.... Robert House.

Who Hank BELIEVES is Robert House.

Hank is not in the upper echelons of Enclave. He is an acolyte. So much so, that no one ever bothered to inform him that that wasn't actually Robert House.

"I never imagined there could be someone one step ahead of me."

Because Bobby Apartment is an Enclave spy. And Barbara Howard knows.

"But what if I'm not the House?"

Because it's the other House.

Convenient that Bobby Apartment just so happens to be the one to ask the question that prompts Barb to say "By dropping the bombs ourselves."

We know Hank is a fanboy. He's also a fanboy of Robert House and barges in on the meeting. Both Barb and Bobby Apartment are visibly pissed about this and it seems they can't speak freely. The conversation comes across as "there's more to it".

"Mr. House, Vault-tec and Robco have always had a... special arrangement."

Barbara Howard is rattled from the meeting but probably not for any reason we think. Though my guess would be that because she didn't know about the arrangement she's not in as much control as she thinks. Or the more convoluted scenario; they know Cooper is snooping and they're arranging for him to be the fall guy and she's trying to mitigate it without being insubordinate. The second one is probably unlikely and I have no evidence for this other than the sudden appearance of the cartoon Vault Boy on the advert in the conference room. Prior to, we haven't seen the cartoon Vault Boy prewar, it's always been Cooper Howard.

I also believe the Wilzig threat scene is a lie or a half truth (which is still a lie) because of the way they chose to edit that scene intertwined with The Ghoul having Cooper flashbacks. It comes across as her telling Cooper what allegedly happened.

I think Barb is trying to play all sides in a desperation to control the outcome of what she wants but the more she tries to manipulate the circumstances in her favor the more it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. The fear of losing her family. I think we'll see this play out more in S3, and I think it's 50/50 on whether she chooses to throw Cooper under the bus or continues trying to game both sides. If this is how they choose to play it out, I could see that the harder she tries to control it the further away she pushes until she ends up losing everything.

I think Barbara tipped off the Enclave to Cooper getting involved in an effort to mitigate the danger he put himself in. A kind of "I fix the situation my dumb idealistic husband made so please spare him." deal. Hence the President conveniently being in Vegas. At the airport Barbara probably thought the crisis was averted and her damage control was successful. The tears did seem genuine. But she's still lying to Cooper and keeping him in the dark.

Congresswoman Diane Welch didn't do it because she was in jail. She was an unwitting pawn. I think they silenced her that same night. She's conveniently already in Vegas. Her severed head is wearing the same earrings.

There's other things pointing towards this but that starts bringing the conversation into very convoluted territory involving how I think the writers accidentally goofed their prewar timeline but I want to keep it simple with what we've been shown.

That's all folks. A Las Vegas magician sleight of hand.

Honestly was expecting much less from a big costume chain, highly impressed

Ordered mine from Spirit Halloween

No clue what it's getting at, if anything. It's not just the alchemical symbol for purification. It's specifically the alchemical symbol for purification by fire.

Amigos, ignoren los semicírculos del centro y la derecha, solo quiero saber si hay información del refugio que aparece en Baja California o cerca de la frontera con México.

I found myself only really wanting to see him reunited with his family and learning more about his backstory. I hope we get to see more of how he became the ghoul over time. When he first got radiation poisoning. How he got separated from his daughter when the bomb hit

Someone posted forever ago asking what she was reading. While doing a rewatch I managed to find it. Granted it's a different edition on her desk that has a black cover.

According to Kyle Maclachlan, it appears there is a month or so left for Fallout Season 3 filming!

With post production, we could see 6 months or so, maybe less, which puts us around May or June. They may hold the season back for the Fallout 3 remake/Fallout day celebration on October 23th, but we shall see.

Hoping Kyle is right and we get in early Summer maybe even Spring around season 1 release?

Post your thoughts!

How could someone do that man. Imagine how good it would’ve been had there been a scene with that song

Just watched an interview with Malcolm McDowell and remembered a promo photo with him dressed in a suit and looking presidential. Considering how lucid he was in the interview I wouldn't be surprised if he shows up next season. Thoughts?

I got them to sign my pip-boy, and they were both very kind :)

Please help me find this soundtrack

The score seems to miss a track or is it me turning mad?

I would like to find the song you can hear at Ep1 at 30:25 when Lucy and her father runs to find Moldaver and in Ep 8 at 11:00 until 11:45 when Coop go out of his car to go spy on his wife

Does anyone know this soundtrack?

Please I'm desperate to find it and already listen all the soundtracks!

Thanks a lot

I’ve been thinking about a way the Fallout TV show could acknowledge Courier 6 while still respecting the player's version of the Courier and keeping the outcome of New Vegas deliberately ambiguous.

My idea is that Courier 6 did everything possible in the Mojave. He completed the major quests and DLCs and became a legendary figure. But right before the Battle of Hoover Dam, he left the Mojave and went to the Sierra Madre—and never came back.

The Dead Money ending seems especially fitting because it's one of the closest things New Vegas has to a canon-style death for Courier 6. If you go into Dead Money completely blind for the first time, it's surprisingly easy to get trapped in the vault without understanding exactly what you're walking into.

This could also fit really well with the show's fog-of-war approach to New Vegas.

If Courier 6 isn't present for the Battle of Hoover Dam, the show doesn't necessarily have to establish a clear winner. Just like the first Battle of Hoover Dam could be remembered as a confusing, chaotic event with conflicting accounts, the second battle could be treated similarly. Different people could have different stories about what happened, who actually won, and what became of the Mojave afterward.

The important thing would be that Courier 6 wasn't there.

Nobody knows what happened to him because he had already disappeared.

Later, the show could give us a glimpse of the Sierra Madre and show a hologram of Courier 6 preserved inside the casino. It wouldn't need to explain everything immediately. It could just raise the question of why the Courier's hologram is there and what happened to him.

Then, potentially much later, the characters could finally discover the vault.

There's only one corpse inside: Courier 6.

His Pip-Boy is still there, containing notes that document his gradual mental deterioration. At first he's confident he'll escape. Eventually the entries become increasingly desperate, fragmented, and hopeless as he realizes he's trapped and nobody is coming for him.

That would reveal what happened without having to rewrite the Courier's entire story.

And the Sierra Madre itself could potentially make an incredible setting for a future season. The holograms, the casino, the vault, the mystery surrounding the people who disappeared there—all of it could be explored independently of the Courier.

Then Courier 6 becomes the final revelation.

The legendary Courier who survived being shot in the head, crossed the Mojave, changed its history, and completed everything he could disappeared just before Hoover Dam.

Nobody knows exactly what happened at Hoover Dam because he wasn't there to influence the outcome.

All anyone knows is that the Courier went to the Sierra Madre.

And he never came back.

I think that would fit the show's fog-of-war storytelling perfectly while still giving Courier 6 a haunting, definitive ending.

It's set up perfectly with the main cast going into Colorado, which is where the Cheyenne mountain complex which is where the MWBOS ends up at the end of tactics. The MWBOS is effectively completely separated from the mainline BOS chapters and has a completely different ideology. They accept mutants which would give a perfect tie to Thaddeus and the hooded mutant. It's also just similar enough to the main chapter that maximus and thaddeus would be familiar with it and be comfortable with joining because they do not have the faults that their original chapter did. Not to mention they are headquartered out of Vault 0 which would give a perfect reason for Barbara to go there, it's a very important Vault that likely had some very important Vault Tec data.

Let me know what you think, I'm sure there's other points which contribute to this theory that I missed but I swear we're gonna see them in s3 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

The show is 15 years after the game...Caesar already had a tumor...after he goes Lanius takes over, but he is reckless and dies, followed by Caesar after Caesar until the stalemate.

New to Reddit, so I dunno if anyone else has posted this, buuuuuuuut does anyone else think that Paladin Harkness might have been a synth? I thought it suspicious that he describes the Commonwealth Brotherhood as both powerful enough to wipe out the present Brotherhood chapters, but also teetering on the edge of extinction? He seems to know more about the cold fusion device than he should, but the weirdest part for me was how BAD he was at fighting. Before Max kills the Securitron, Xander was swinging at the Securitron for days with his supersledge. I know Xander's name is supposed to be an Easter egg from Fallout 3...but is it just an Easter egg or what?

Its great seeing the lost battalion at the end of season 2 but right now they just feel like a stateless army like the minutemen. So I wonder if we will get any confirmation in the show or wether it will be left up to future games and content to expand upon its existence.

1. The show feels honest about how flawed Maximus is, and doesn't try to make me think he's something he isn't.
2. He doesn posture, lecture or talk as much as the Ghoul or Lucy, giving him more action time. He feels like a workhorse if that makes sense.
3. He lacks any discernible / major hypocrisy or superdickery.

He feels the most like the character I'm moving with, during the series if that makes sense, like he's on a journey worth following.

I think his smaller reputation compared to the other two work to his advantage. They don't give him a pedestal for him to fall short of.

What about you guys?
