Before the war,
people joked about cockroaches
surviving a nuclear blast.
But they didn't merely survive.
They improved.
[growls]
Enlarged thorax to ward off attack.
Extended antennae
in order to hunt in packs.
Incisors to help ingest larger prey.
Such as yourself.
You should know better
than to light a fire after dark.
Sir, I'm looking for my father.
He was, uh, kidnapped
by this woman named Moldaver.
- Have you seen her?
- Listen,
you need to go home, miss.
Vault dwellers
are an endangered species here.
You come from a world of rules, of laws.
This place is indifferent to all of that.
I do not think you would be willing to do
what it takes to survive up here.
I'm not going back without my dad.
If you insist on staying,
then you will have to adapt.
Question is will you still
want the same things
when you have become
a different animal altogether?
Four, come.
Who are you?
[creature growling in distance]
[indistinct radio chatter]
My lord Titus.
I see you went with the tempered lining.
On the T-60.
Does that-that help with mobility?
[distorted] Clean that.

Set us down.
I'm bored and I want to shoot something.
No, my lord, we were assigned

And a dog.
The target.
Yes, they were

[distorted] Fuck.

Go see if the target's in there.
But-but, my l-my lord,
I-I don't have armor.
You earn the suit through acts of bravery.
This is an act of bravery.
But-but my lord, I
An order, my squire.
Move.
See anything?
What's the problem, dipshit?

Whoa! Help!
Oh! Help!
Help me!
Oh! Shoot it!

Fuck. Fuck.
Help.
Get this fucking thing off me.
Help.
Help me.
Oh, fuck.
[groans]
[normal voice] Oh, fuck.
Fuck. Fuck this sh
Fuck!
Where were you?
Huh?
This fucking place.
There's always something
to ruin your fuckin' day.
This wasteland fucking sucks.
The clerics, too. With their bullshit.
Sending me on stupid missions
for remnants that turn out to be
a fucking toaster oven.
You know what you could do
with a fucking toaster oven?
Do you have any idea? [chuckles]
[coughs]
Get me a stimpak.
What the fuck are you doing, man?
Can you get me a fucking stimpak
instead of just standing there?
I'm asking you for a stimpak
and you're looking at me
you're looking at me like
you don't know what the fuck to do.
I got a two-ton
irradiated bear on my back,
and you're standing there
You stupid motherfucker,
you know this is all your fault.
[ominous music playing]
You know what they do to squires
that don't do their fucking job?
They string you up
Maximus, by your, uh, lungs,
and they, uh, they hang you
and let the vultures come get you.
[chuckles]
That's what they're gonna do to you.
[coughs]
You got to be
the worst fuckin' squire there is.
This is all your fault.
You dumb motherfucker, you.
[coughs]
[coughing] Get me a stimpak.
Get me a stimpak!
I can't breathe. [coughs]
[coughing continuing]
It is a knight's duty
to better this fallen world.
You don't deserve that armor.
Oh, you think you do?
[coughing]
You fuck.
They'll kill you for this. You
Not if I bring back the target.
You
[coughs]
[metal banging]
Work, damn you!
[Lucy] Hi, hello! Excuse me.
Excuse me!
Hi!
May I approach?
I ain't got weapons.
- Oh
- Or money.
It's okay, I just want
to ask you for directions.
Okay.
Sorry.
I'm-I'm a little lost.
Hi.
What's that you're working on?
It's meant to be a water filter.
No matter how much sand I put in it,
I just get more sand.
Well, h have you tried water
for the water filter?
You got water?
Oh, uh, would you like a sip?
Here.
- [continues guzzling]
- Uh sorry. Uh, s-sir,
I actually I might
I need that.
Yeah, me too.
Thank you.
Somebody hands you
a bottle of clean water, you drink it.
Even if you're not thirsty, you drink it.
Much as you can, anyway.
Right.
Uh, you haven't happened to have seen
a group pass by with a prisoner, did you?
No.
You headed to Filly?
W-What's Filly?
A town.
It's over that hill.
Never been, myself.
You've never been over that hill?
Nah. It's too dangerous.
People get killed in Filly all the time.
That's where my daddy got killed, anyway.
Couple brothers, too.
Had a aunt as well.
She got killed there once.
I'm sorry to hear that.
Oh, thank you.
Sounds dangerous.
Or you just stay here.
Live with me.
Could use a family.
It helps with all the work.
Uh
I-I'm okay, but, uh,
thank you so much for the advice.
- I'm real sick. Think I'm dying.
- Oh
You wouldn't have to
put up with me for too long.
This could all be yours!
I'm okay.
Uh, thank you.
You're a good person
for not shooting me with that gun.
Oh, it was really no problem.
Bye!

[ominous music playing]
Uh hi there.
I noticed that you have
an assortment of Vault-Tec equipment.
Uh-huh.
And, uh, well, because these items
technically belong
to Vault-Tec [chuckles]
it would be safe to assume
that you do business with criminals.
Not judging you.
Don't imagine there's
that many other options up here.
But I'm actually looking
for one criminal in particular.
Holy shit.
You're an actual vault dweller.
I am.
[laughs]
I thought all you sardine-fucking dipshits
were dead. Barv!
- Get in here. You got to see this.
- Um,
ma'am, the raider I'm looking for
is about five-foot-nine.
Barv.
- A woman in her 50s, I think.
- Barv!
- Goes by the name of Moldaver.
- Barv, get in here. You
[tense music playing]
- Get back to your fucking room, Barv.
- Eh.
I take it you know who she is.
[sighs] Everyone knows who Moldaver is.
Get out of here, vault dweller.
Ma'am, this Moldaver broke into my vault,
took my dad, and-and killed
And I'm telling you
you're gonna go through a whole lot worse
if you stay around here. Trust me.
I can tell by looking at you.
Clean hair. [clicks tongue]
Nice teeth. [smacks lips] Mm.
And all ten fingers.
Must be nice.
Well, I know that it can't have been easy
for you up here,
what with all the murder and-and the dirt.
But the mission of the vaults
should be important to everyone.
And why is that?
Well, uh
Well, you see, the idea is, um
that
we're going to
save America.
Ah!
And when exactly
were you planning on saving America?
The vaults were nothing more
than a hole in the ground
for rich folks to hide in
while the rest of the world burned.
We vault dwellers recognize,
uh, and are grateful for
the privileged position we were born into,
- and
- You know what folks up here
say about the vaults?
What?
Fuck the vaults.
Mm-mm.
Okay, well, uh
Thank you for your help, ma'am.
[intriguing music playing]
[indistinct chatter]
- [doctor] Okay, you can go in. Go on.
- [CX404 barks]
- Go.
- [barks]
You again, miss.
Really think you should go home.
You are not safe here.
[sighs] That's what people
keep telling me.
No one understands my situation.
You come from Vault 33.
Your primary crop is corn.
You have a Telesonic projector
in your farm.
It loops images
of the Nebraskan countryside.
You've been brought up in a meritocracy,
where people pride themselves
on doing the right thing.
I think I know enough to know
you need to go home.
Who are you?
- And how do you know so much
- [Ma June] Hey.
You Wilzig?
Let's get you inside.
I told you to get the fuck out of here.
[Ghoul] Wilzig.
[vocalist yodeling]
Now, you wouldn't happen
to be a doctor, would you?
'Cause I happen to be looking for one.
You know your kind ain't welcome here.
Well, maybe not.
But I'm gonna make myself welcome.
Now, last night a bounty came in
through all six agencies.
A hefty price
on the head of a man
that fits the description
of that fella right there.
Now, I may not know much,
but I do know a bidding war
when I see one.
Maybe.
But I've been paid a whole lot of caps
to provide this man
safe transport out of Filly.
Aah! [groaning]
Change of plans, I guess.
[Ma June] I got a thousand bottle caps
for whoever kills that fucker!
But you don't get shit
if I kill him first.

[dramatic music playing]

Damn, y'all done got me
working up a appetite.

[townsman screams]
[gunshots]
Well, I'd offer you one
of these cherry tomatoes,
but you got a hole in your neck.
[gunfire continuing]
Mm.
[gunfire continuing in distance]
Come on.
[gunfire continuing]
[gunshots]
Ow! Aah! [groaning]
For the tomatoes.

[CX404 growling]
- [thunk]
- [CX404 whimpers]
[Wilzig] No! No, please.
[Wilzig groaning]
Wilzig.
I'm going to have to ask you
to leave him alone.
Now, I acknowledge that I'm unfamiliar
with your circumstances.
But, at first glance,
your treatment of this man appears unfair,
and I'm obliged to intervene.
Huh.
Now, if your instinct is to harm me,
as a person simply trying
to deescalate a conflict,
then I'll have to assume,
of the two of you,
you are likely the primary aggressor.
In which case,
I think everyone in this town would agree
that force is justified.
Unless you willingly stand down now.
Fucking vault dwellers. Geez.
Huh.
[grunts softly]
[sighs] Well, now,
that is a very small drop
in a very, very large bucket of drugs.
[weapon cocks]
[Maximus] [distorted] She said
stand down, Ghoul.
[jets whirring]
Knight Titus of the Brotherhood of Steel.
Stand down
or be cut down.
You got to be fucking kidding me.

- Ah
[grunts]
Hi.

Listen, that man is important.
I've been sent here to find him.
Get him inside and keep him there
until I've dealt with the Ghoul.
Okay. Thank you.
[cackling] Yeah.
[Wilzig groaning]
[Ma June grunting]
Come on.
[grunting]
Oh
[chuckles] Eh.
Well, I'd say come up here and get me,
but it's hard
to walk upstairs when you're wearing
a 12-piece cast-iron skillet set.
[gunshot]
[Ma June grunting]
Gonna need a new foot, Barv!
Trying to eat my beans, but okay.
[Wilzig] Aah! Aah!
God, God, God, God, God, God, God
[groaning]
I can still make this trip.
You'll be lucky if you can make it
to fucking breakfast.
The foot, Barv!
[Barv] I'm looking for the foot.
We got a whole crate
under the box with the defibrillators.
[Barv] You keep moving things around
without telling me.
I don't mean to interrupt, but
was that a knight?
Barv!
[clattering]
Wasn't under the defibrillators.
Just saying.
I'm sorry for yelling.
Been shot in the leg.
Aw, eh, you'd yell at me either way.

She can take me.

If you think this little thing
can haul your
limping ass across the Wasteland,
you may not be as smart
as people say you are.
Do you have anyone else
you can trust in this town?
Shit.
Hey, daddy's girl.
I need you to take this man here
to my client.
Oh, uh, thank you, uh, but
I'm really only here to find my dad. Uh
Besides, no offense,
but you're in no condition to travel.
My client goes by the name
of Lee Moldaver.
Now, you ain't getting near Moldaver
without something to bargain with,
and delivering this guy right here
is your best option.
[Lucy] Well, what does Moldaver
want with you? I mean,
she steals dads!
[explosion]
Do you want your dad back or not, kid?
- Uh
- Huh?
I
Gosh damn it, okay! Uh
Now, here. This is where
you're gonna find Moldaver.
She and her kind
hole up across the Shithole.
What's the Shithole?
Uh, well, just-just
get to the coordinates.
You know, rads move pretty quick
in and out through there,
so you're gonna need to move fast
if you want to keep your skins.
All right. I can do this.
Yes. You can do this, sure, you can.
You are
- a vault dweller, true to your word.
- Mm-hmm.
This really
this could
may-maybe work.
You really mean that?
- [whoosh]

[explosion]
Go! Get out the back. Hurry!
Oh!
[groans] Goddamn, that hurt.
[cries out]
[grunts]
[vocalist yodeling]
Oh, shit. Uh
[chuckles]
Well, I guess basic training
ain't what it used to be.
'Cause you drive that thing
like a fucking shopping cart.

Rule number one:
read the manual.

Whoa, whoa
No, no, no!
Oh, no! [grunts]

Aah!
[salesman] Serums to energize.
Serums to invigorate.
Serums to heal your feet.

Serums that will make you grow

Holy moly.
I'm not going to make it.
Listen, I don't know who you are
or how you know the things that you do,
but you are going to get across
that wasteland.
And we're gonna do it together.
Okay?
That's a promise.
No, you see,
I've just taken a cyanide pill.
What?
Vault-Tec Plan D.
It was the most humane product
that Vault-Tec ever made.
It was quick, painless.
T-Tasted like banana. I
I was surprised it wasn't more popular.
People are going to come after you.
You'll need to move quickly.
You can change the future
if you can bring me to Moldaver.
But how am I gonna bring you if you're
No, not-not my whole body. [groans]
Just my head.
- Here.
- Pardon?
I took the pill
so that it would be less taxing
for you to go through with it.
It'll be easier if you carry my head
instead of dragging my whole body.
You
You're asking me to just
Please. I'm begging you.
And this is the only way
to get your dad back.
I knew I could trust you.
You are a vault dweller.
But if you're going to survive up here
you need to start acting
like a surface dweller.
Okay Ms. MacLean?
How do you know my name?
Sir?
