Furthermore, he isn't 'willing to spy on his wife because she's a working girl' or 'in the 50s'. He is heartbroken over knowing there is something sinister about his wife's work and the lies she is adding in to their marriage.
In the FALLOUT 3 game (If my memory doesn't fail me, I'm old though), the glowing ghouls do an explode move that heals and even resurrect fallen feral ghouls so... Depends on the ghoul and how long he has been ghoulified I guess...
Game reference - The armor in the opening scene is the armor of the NCR faction, and the woodden shack the live in is from Fallout 4. A big feature in Fallout 4 is the ability to build Settlements (you can build houses and almost run your own version of The Sims in the game if you add some mods). Part of the Building system is access to some prefab constructions and the wooden shack they live in is one of those prefabs available to the player when building!
"How does the elevator work without the power core?" Same way it works with the power core. There's a counterwieght (it's typcially the mass of the car plus about 50% or the capacity displayed on the little plaque inside), so a lot of the lifting is just gravity; and when the car goes up, most of the power used is smoothing out the ride rather than actually lifting anything. And there's probably a regenerative drive in use too, which makes the draw of power less when moving.
Steph being assigned Interim Overseer of Vault 32. Remember the list they found of all Overseering coming from Vault 31? Steph is also from Vault 31. And now an Overseer.
Erik Estrada was the Dad in the opening. I have seen snow in LA... IN THE SUMMER. Freak Blizzard hit the grapevine and it snowed right into the edge of LA in July.
"Red Rocket" is a thing, as described. As kids, most of us had dogs. Occasionally, one would be "at attention." It was a strange thing for 6 year Olds so we gave it a cutesy name. I haven't heard that term in decades. Of course, I haven't been 6 in dedades.
Best video ever: Someone used the term 'penultimate' correctly! Blessings upon both of you. It is fiddle music, by the way, not violin music. The best (serious) way of making the distinction is that the violin is a melody instrument while the fiddle is a rhythm instrument. The music broadcast by KPSS can also be heard on Minutemen Radio in Fallout 4.
In the first episode they had Lucy teaching a history class to a bunch of kids when she went over her activities, but that was the last we saw of any of them.
Red Rocket was in the South Park episode "Proper Condom Use", Season 5, Episode 7. Original Air date aug1 2001. Soon 23 years ago. I feel so F'ing old...
We get snow in california. Even in the southern california. In fact this year the winter was so cold it snowed in los angeles which is rare. Last time that happened i believe it was the 80s
There were two groups of prisoners the 1st group you saw was the ones who didn't throw the food at the beginning. The guards were different for each group.
Lack of children is a bit of a in-game joke, I think. Most communities in Fallout games have only one or two children. And in Fallout 4 , before release, the game makers removed the children skeletons from when the bombs dropped because someone decided it would be too disturbing.
Wasn't there a quest in Fallout 2 that had to do with kids underground and the "child-killer" perk ? I think there was a big commotion then about the possiblity of killing kids ingame and since that time children are usually in cut scenes only or quest specific ( just like the short scene in Lucys introduction ).
@@fzwilling It wasn't really a quest, that I can recall, but a couple of the little bastards would happily make pick pocketing checks against you when you passed by and were camping a vaguely important door.

Don't blame Reddit Nerdy, put "red rocket" on South Park for their episode popularizing the expression lol Lucy is the classic first play through "hero" character. What a great line "if my dad found out i destroyed an entire civilization to save me, it would break his heart." Really sums up her character. The fiddling is probably a reference to Fallout 3, one of the side quests you can run into.
Im pretty sure (without checking to back my facts) that the music is a reference to the castle in Fallout4, and that no one likes the minuteman radio. I think its the same shitty violin but I might be wrong.
@@Ferdawoon Actually the Fo4 Minute Man music is from Fo3, it's from a side quest for an old lady named Agatha, she sends you to a vault to find a famous violin. Afterwards she plays it over the radio.
If you're right about the "Farva" guy being a drug dealer, that's an immaculate pull because I've seen the show a bunch of times and watched other reactions and never got that impression, but it would explain so much.

@@jackmacgillicutty8045 I had honestly forgot about Hancocks backstory! Been years since I played Fallout 4! But yeh that makes sense as well. We know about the Vault with the faulty door which caused ghoulification so we know there are multiple ways for it to happen.
I really love the brutality and gore in Fallout, but honestly torturing and killing children really doesn't have to be the case. I'm glad that this is left out in the series and in the games.
This episode literally has a woman being eaten alive by human-fish hybrids she was forcibly impregnated with, moments after giving birth, but killing children is going too far? I'm not diagreeing with you, btw. But I would love people to spend more time internallt interrogating why they feel the way they do about certain things.
When you playin' fiddlin' music it ain't no goddarn violin, it's a fiddle! I got that explanation from my niece, years ago, she's been playing the violin (and sometimes the fiddle) since she was like 5, and she studied music in university, has a degree and everything. It is sadly, a thing. Not sure why I know it, don't really wanna know, but I know. Dogmeat, or other dogs with the name Dogmeat, are in practically every game, usually as a companion. They are actually a reference to the dog from Mad Max.
24:15 This screen is taken directly from the games starting in Fallout 3. Your 'science' skill allows you to basically play a password mini-game attempting to gain access to a locked computer. These little detail sprinkles are just perfect in this series.
What a beautiful message Nerdy. One day when i grow old, i'm gonna tell my daughter those exact same words. i'm just typing this in here in case i need the bail money, cuz i'm 100000% sure i'm getting locked up.
Your reaction to seeing Thaddeus quite gently put an effectively stray domesticated dog in the middle of a dangerous wasteland in a safe crate he made sure was ventilated was... strong...
Why do people think Thadd is a ghoul? I mean Max said "I THINK you MIGHT", obviously Unreliable Narrator (common for Fallout), also we have confirmed Ghoul, who's finger DIDN'T grow back..
Ghoulification does heal wounds, and said wound healed up all scarred and rough like a ghoul's. There is also a character in Fallout 4 who became a ghoul from a drug. He likely is a ghoul, and the more damage he takes, or the more time passes, the more he will look like a ghoul.
The foot was still in one piece (fucked up but one piece). Can’t be fev because that makes surface dwellers into stupid super mutants. Maybe it could make him just another mutant, but the arrow wound he got has the same scar tissue as ghouls
@@LuxLoser Yes Hancock (I believe) became a ghoul via some drugs he was taking for longer time period (was addicted to them), but ghouls do not heal this fast, as I said, Cooper's finger DIDN'T grow back after Lucy bite it off. Don't know maybe drugs-made ghouls heal this fast, different to "natural-made" ghouls like Cooper. Although, I don't think Thadd is a ghoul. Unreliable Narrators are all over Fallout (including in the show, lots characters said in this season will NOT be the case in the next one, including, Betty, Moldaver, Hank, etc), and Max especially is unreliable (not very edjucated person) and also wasn't sure by how he said it.
Likely. We never saw transformation, only a final result. Although, Sup Mut are made by submerging into FEV only or there are other ways? I know what people think, Coops finger was separated, so there was nothing to heal, but healing always covers for separation: hole in the neck, tissue growes back. So yeah, Ghouls do not do that, especially not that fast, far as what I saw. @@anon_234
This is canon... according to Todd Howard... so the "people who are complaining are doing so because their opinion of things (almost certainly the NCR timeline and the fall of Shady Sands doesn't agree with their own calculations... because the rest of the timeline on the board in vault 4 adds up fine...
I still question if mustache is actually a ghoul now. Ghouls have incredible regeneration and drug resistance, but I don't recall any ever regenerating mangled limbs or surviving a wound like that. The problem is that things like magic, dark gods, and aliens are all cannon in Fallout.
Penultimate is a good word, but everyone overlooks the other words in that group. Ultimate is the last something. Penultimate is the one before last. Antepenultimate is two before last. Preantepenultimate is three before last. Proreantipenultimate is four before last.
Considering vault 4 let them go without a fuss and they have surface foragers, they likely have multiple fusion cores. The reason why Max gave up his core in reality is the show's production didn't want to film the last 2 episodes with Max in a suit. They also have some kids, shown at the beginning of the first episode in a classroom, they just don't focus on them in the show for some reason, likely as you mentioned focusing on the main cast, production related.
All of the games have contradictory lore, the show's no different. It's almost always just small things that don't matter all that much, like the origin of jet. Sometimes it's bigger, like whether ghouls need to eat (that boy in the fridge...). That's just what happens with 30 odd years of universe development.
One of the reasons some people have an issue with it is Todd Howard's justifications for that. They could have just said 'we try our best to make the lore consistent, but sometimes mistakes happen'. Instead his taken take seems to be 'some stuff changes between games, that's just how it is, accept it'. Which implies keeping things consistent is something they'll shrug off when it suits them, not somthing they strive for.
yes its a thing and i knew this cause they look like red rockets and lipsticks lol thats what we called them when i was a kid ill never forget the fist time i saw one

I really love the brutality and gore in Fallout, but honestly torturing and killing children really doesn't have to be the case. I'm glad that this is left out in the series and in the games.
install 'kill kids' mod,
fast travel to little lamplighter
This episode literally has a woman being eaten alive by human-fish hybrids she was forcibly impregnated with, moments after giving birth, but killing children is going too far?
I'm not diagreeing with you, btw. But I would love people to spend more time internallt interrogating why they feel the way they do about certain things.
11:03
Hahah 😂 now that was cute too 😋
The dog cx-404 is a girl so no rocket at all
28:54 Nerdy giving a monlogue for the ages! got me in stitches!
11:00 "I love a good fiddle" - just so long as you don't do it in public, dude. It'll get you in trouble.
When you playin' fiddlin' music it ain't no goddarn violin, it's a fiddle! I got that explanation from my niece, years ago, she's been playing the violin (and sometimes the fiddle) since she was like 5, and she studied music in university, has a degree and everything.
It is sadly, a thing. Not sure why I know it, don't really wanna know, but I know.
Dogmeat, or other dogs with the name Dogmeat, are in practically every game, usually as a companion. They are actually a reference to the dog from Mad Max.
It’s funny how you find Dogmeat at the red rocket, since both dog meat and red rocket can be slang for the same thing
The Red Rocket Thing with dog pe#*s comes from Southpark. I dont wanna get into Detail 😅But yes it is a Thing 😂
its been around way way way before south park lol
24:15 This screen is taken directly from the games starting in Fallout 3. Your 'science' skill allows you to basically play a password mini-game attempting to gain access to a locked computer. These little detail sprinkles are just perfect in this series.
29:27 Nerdy's come way too close to being a tradwife coach there. 😅
I live behind the hollywood hills, yes it snows here in California, just not all that often.
"your on your own goosie"
What a beautiful message Nerdy. One day when i grow old, i'm gonna tell my daughter those exact same words. i'm just typing this in here in case i need the bail money, cuz i'm 100000% sure i'm getting locked up.
I'm SO pumped for the final ep. You guys are gonna have so much fun...
This show is SO WILD.
Your reaction to seeing Thaddeus quite gently put an effectively stray domesticated dog in the middle of a dangerous wasteland in a safe crate he made sure was ventilated was... strong...
Came for the reaction, stayed for the dating advice
GROND! GROND! GROND!
It snows in lots of places in CA. Even LA on rare occasions.
Why do people think Thadd is a ghoul? I mean Max said "I THINK you MIGHT", obviously Unreliable Narrator (common for Fallout), also we have confirmed Ghoul, who's finger DIDN'T grow back..
Ghoulification does heal wounds, and said wound healed up all scarred and rough like a ghoul's. There is also a character in Fallout 4 who became a ghoul from a drug.
He likely is a ghoul, and the more damage he takes, or the more time passes, the more he will look like a ghoul.
The foot was still in one piece (fucked up but one piece). Can’t be fev because that makes surface dwellers into stupid super mutants. Maybe it could make him just another mutant, but the arrow wound he got has the same scar tissue as ghouls
@@LuxLoser Yes Hancock (I believe) became a ghoul via some drugs he was taking for longer time period (was addicted to them), but ghouls do not heal this fast, as I said, Cooper's finger DIDN'T grow back after Lucy bite it off. Don't know maybe drugs-made ghouls heal this fast, different to "natural-made" ghouls like Cooper.
Although, I don't think Thadd is a ghoul. Unreliable Narrators are all over Fallout (including in the show, lots characters said in this season will NOT be the case in the next one, including, Betty, Moldaver, Hank, etc), and Max especially is unreliable (not very edjucated person) and also wasn't sure by how he said it.
Could Thadd be turning into a type of super mutant?
Likely. We never saw transformation, only a final result. Although, Sup Mut are made by submerging into FEV only or there are other ways? I know what people think, Coops finger was separated, so there was nothing to heal, but healing always covers for separation: hole in the neck, tissue growes back. So yeah, Ghouls do not do that, especially not that fast, far as what I saw. @@anon_234
The show takes place in 2296.
Cockroaches and Hipsters surviving the apocalypse. Figures.
This is canon... according to Todd Howard... so the "people who are complaining are doing so because their opinion of things (almost certainly the NCR timeline and the fall of Shady Sands doesn't agree with their own calculations... because the rest of the timeline on the board in vault 4 adds up fine...
I still question if mustache is actually a ghoul now. Ghouls have incredible regeneration and drug resistance, but I don't recall any ever regenerating mangled limbs or surviving a wound like that. The problem is that things like magic, dark gods, and aliens are all cannon in Fallout.
Its a thing. I remember us kids yelling "RED ROCKET" when a dog had a boner and giggle. Kids. 😅
Goocy? Gucy? Goosey?
Yes, it is a thing. I've raised dogs for over 30 years and yes it is a thing.
There’s a pretty graphic South Park about red rocket. So I guess it IS a thing…
Never thought I'd hear Overwatch talk here. ^^
I notice the end credits animations for each episode contains stuff from the next episode.
Penultimate is a good word, but everyone overlooks the other words in that group.
Ultimate is the last something. Penultimate is the one before last. Antepenultimate is two before last. Preantepenultimate is three before last. Proreantipenultimate is four before last.
Considering vault 4 let them go without a fuss and they have surface foragers, they likely have multiple fusion cores. The reason why Max gave up his core in reality is the show's production didn't want to film the last 2 episodes with Max in a suit. They also have some kids, shown at the beginning of the first episode in a classroom, they just don't focus on them in the show for some reason, likely as you mentioned focusing on the main cast, production related.
I know "red rocket" from South Park
Penultimate episode hype! I love Goosey!
Yes, Red Rocket is definitely a thing. 😂
I suppose then that ladies should forego Clones of their fathers. (?)
HAHAHAH oh man, I just immediately thought of that super early south park episode, Proper Condom Use, only place I ever heard red rocket :P
All of the games have contradictory lore, the show's no different.
It's almost always just small things that don't matter all that much, like the origin of jet. Sometimes it's bigger, like whether ghouls need to eat (that boy in the fridge...).
That's just what happens with 30 odd years of universe development.
One of the reasons some people have an issue with it is Todd Howard's justifications for that. They could have just said 'we try our best to make the lore consistent, but sometimes mistakes happen'. Instead his taken take seems to be 'some stuff changes between games, that's just how it is, accept it'. Which implies keeping things consistent is something they'll shrug off when it suits them, not somthing they strive for.
yes its a thing and i knew this cause they look like red rockets and lipsticks lol thats what we called them when i was a kid ill never forget the fist time i saw one
Took me half of the episode to realize your shirt's meaning lol
From one TWoT fan to another that's fucking great! Off to "rewatch" the show with you guys expect some older vid comments lmao
unless one of more than 100 specific vaults gets mentioned, this isn't a spoiler, but yes there are clones in fallout. there's a vault full of clones of one guy named gary.
Sometimes ya gotta snoop…
Haha, Nerdy and my 7th grade English class had/have the same favorite word. Penultimate!
That is the medicine of 2296, not 2077.
🧐
Better living through chemicals?
😁👍
I am glad I found your channel and been enjoying the content but I think I know your twin Nolan Cooley. You guys are identical in looks.
I was literally thinking about how they call dogs penises red rockets before he said that so yeah it's a thing lol.
