[Hank MacLean] This is Hank MacLean.
[heavy footsteps]
Reporting for duty, sir.
Trying to pick up where you all left off.
Miniaturization.
I'm gonna complete the work you started.
And when this is all over, you will be begging me to help you.
[Ghoul] Before the war, there was a plan
for a special Vault for management.
That's where my wife is.
Where my daughter is, too.
[rustling and chittering]
What is making that noise in the elevator?
Roach farm.
[loud banging]
[gun cocking]
How do you have that?
This is for Lucy.
[Ghoul] So, you wanna give that thing to a good person
so they can save the world.
But in order to save that good person...
you're gonna have to give it to a really bad person.
[tense music playing]
-[arm thuds] -[Thaddeus] Uh...
[people screaming]
The great founder of this Empire, he died.
We've been at war ever since over who should be his heir.
[Lucy MacLean] You know the Legion is still out there.
-They're gonna hurt a lot of people. -Yes.
[Lucy] With what you've created, you could stop them.
We could stop them, Lucy.
[Hank grunts]
[Lucy] You always were a good father.
Thanks to you, I'm not a fudging idiot.
[Ronnie] Phase 2 was very important to the experiment.
The whole plan for Vaults 32 and 33?
Forced Evolutionary Virus.
[electricity zapping]
Claudia.
We have to get out of here.
Dad, if you can hear me... what's gonna happen to our Vault?
[Chet] Steph was not born in Vault 31.
-[whispering] Chet. -She's 200 years old.
-[guests gasping] -[Chet] Who are you, Steph?!
[door closing]
[roaring]
[Maximus yelling]
[tense music playing]
[Barb Howard] The only way to save our family
is to save the world.
I believe there is another player at the table.
The House always wins, right?
What if I'm not the House?
Mr. President.
Thank you for doing the right thing, son.

Together, we will reclaim the holy land that they call Vegas.
[soldiers muttering in agreement]
There, we'll build a palace worthy of our empire.
[soldiers chattering, chuckling]
Caesar's Palace.
Now, to New Vegas!

[Robert House] [on monitor] Well, hello, old chum!
What did I tell you when we first met?
The House always wins.
Winnin' might be overrated, Robert.
'Cause them swimming pools outside used to be full.
Well... I will say this much.
It's good to be alive again.
Over the years, my body became something of a target
for wandering travelers with something to prove.
I have been poisoned, shot, bludgeoned with a crowbar...
Shut the fuck up.
The diode.
What about it, old friend?
What happens if I shoot this thing?
Unclear.
There's only ever been one of them, so it would be fresh snow
from a scientific standpoint.
But if it were to expel all of its energy simultaneously...
the damage would likely extend to other planets,
so I would exercise extreme caution.
Well, most people ain't got shit to live for anyway.
Let's cut to the chase. Where's my family?
Why didn't you tell me there was a Vault for management in Vegas?
Because you hadn't yet brought me the diode.
[sighs]
I tell you what.
You get me in that Vault and I'll leave your batteries on.
We got a deal... Bob?
Absolutely.
But in order to show you the way, you'll have to...
wear one of these.
Like it or not, Mr. Howard...
everyone works for me eventually.

I rigged every slot machine, every roulette wheel.
Turn left.
I even rigged their impenetrable Vault for management.
-Is that so? -But I miscalculated.
Because this Vault belongs not to Vault-Tec
but to their investors.
I never fathomed there could be someone one step ahead of me.
Until I saw your demon in the snow.

[Robert] When it came to predicting the end of the world,
I was off by just a smidge.
But when it came to controlling the future,
I was wholly outclassed by an invisible adversary.
It was they who set the Deathclaws on Vegas.
And now one of their acolytes is here, in this very building.
[Hank] Why'd you go and do that, Lucy?
You know, Robert House
wanted to turn human beings into machines.
Erase their memories.
Make them suggestible enough to follow his orders.
You know, Robert, he was a bit of a robot himself.
And who wants to live in a world full of robots?
So... [sighs] what I was trying to do
was to add a little personality to his product.
Who is she?
Congresswoman Diane Welch, from Glendale.
ISTP on the old Myers-Briggs,
which is still the gold standard for personnel.
Ideal personality to scale.
With the kind of attributes we could stand
to see more of out there in the world, if you ask me.
Well-meaning.
Sweet.
Non-threatening.
Then, why would you do that to her?
Well...
Daddy's job is complicated, sweetie.
[gasps]
[Robert] The Enclave's eyes are everywhere.
You should know, Mr. Howard.
Two hundred years ago,
you delivered that diode into their possession yourself.
You helped bring forth the greatest threat to the Wasteland.
You were their unwitting servant.
I am what I am.
[Robert] Is that what you'll tell your family if you find them?

We talked all night, and at four in the morning,
this little romantic proposed.

I'm hoping Mr. Askins can find a job for her.
Uh... maybe.
