I don't think this is an experiment, it's quite literally a way for Vault Tec to keep on existing in some way, shape and form - making a place where they can literally breed more middle-managers sounds like a thing real-life corporations would eventually do.

Bud was always over sharing. He damn near spilled the beans to Coop but Barb stopped him Actually now that I think about it, that's pretty clever writing. Instead of just having a character infodump out of the blue, establish them as constantly talking too much for their own good. It says a lot about the character, about the type of people working at Vault Tec, and is good comic relief
Dude, he nearly spelled out the entire plan to Coop in the parking lot! The guy is way too chatty for his own good, and probably had fairly limited communication for the last 200 years. No way Norm wasn't getting infodumped by Bud 😂
I imagine that's going to change in season 2 quite a bit. Even though he's quite timid and scared, we've seen enough to know he's curious, intelligent, and has leadership skills. He's been sheltered in the vault with instilled leaders keeping everyone in check, but outside of that we can see those qualities in him. I'm guessing he's going to be one of the 'the best leaders are the ones that never wanted the position' types later on. Great show and characters!
I expected him to be some sort of typical annoying younger brother, but turned out Norm is quite resourceful and had the arguably darkest arc among the main characters.
@@korawitbuttramee618 He has hacking skills, stealth skills, and apparently pretty good speech so far, he's passed a couple speech checks with the new Overseer.
Its crazy how Bud is so brainwashed enough to trade his humanity for a little robot to be isolated for centuries all on the hopes of his plan succeeding. And the managers, they just live the rest of their lives underground
@@ceshmate1953 What use is luxury and money when the planet erupts into war every few years, tanking your stocks and killing a generation of your workers? I'd rather have peace in a small box than the constant threat of war in a mansion, I just wouldn't be psychopathic enough to sterilise the surface of enemies like Vault Tec tried to do.
Can I clarify something? Vault Tec did not launch the bombs, the Enclave did with the genuine belief that their first strike would win the war- they had already moved all their leadership including the president out of the US to their own versions of vaults To the Enclave the vaults are just a back up source of non mutated humans and pre war tech
Have you ever had the chance to monologue? Unveiling a grand plan started and carried out by your own hands. The feeling of control that you'll have over future events and seeing the hope leave the eyes of the people who will try and fail to stop you. It makes one feel like a god! But, if you are a foot tall brain in a jar. I would recommend actually disabling any threat BEFORE enjoying your ranting.
It always perplexed me as to why Vault Tec would invest in the vaults if they were not going to live to collect the fruits of their research. well I guess they can collect it now.
With buds buds, and the junior executives, the senior executives likely had their own vault. My guess is, that is where Howard's family is. Would make sense since she kept the investors happy that the higher ups recognized her talent and offered her a senior position, which is where they are likely held.
Collect what, it all a F*ck fest all valut majority failed one way or another, for a bunch of executives smart enough to get the job or make it, they didn't get humanity at all 😅
I like Bud’s character. It adds a bit of comic relief. Every company has one. A guy who rose to his level of incompetence but is still there for pity probably. It’s not for nothing that he wasn’t frozen with the other managers.
@@theyearwas1473he's not?

Worse, they didn't even freeze his body like the others, making him suffer from loneliness for 200 years. I wouldn't even wish for my enemies to suffer from that kind of fate.
I noticed how the Vault Tec scenes are shot in the style of 1950's cinema, right down to the colour tints, camera framing and the shock revelation zoom-in close-ups, which Spielberg, Scorsese and Spike Lee are famous for borrowing.
Well the 2070's in the Fallout time line are analogous to the 1950's in our own timeline. And since the world ended in 2077 nothing much was invented or achieved for the next 219 years meaning the present day of 2296 has remnants of our 1950's/their 2070's all over it, in the adverts you see, the vehicles, the clothing, etc. This is why the music in the show and all of the games are from the 1930's to 1950's.
Unless the reason they unfreeze is because you broke the pods. Doubt a bunch of managers would have the know how to fix it and they'd have to move into other vaults since there's no food in this one.
@@ithrilzyne4542 That's what happened in vault 111. The people tasked with monitoring the cryo pods ran out of resources and overthrew the overseer so they could leave the vault. (And When the pods were broken only Nate survived. So it's somehow possible to mess with the operating system of the pods to stop them from working)

The residents of Vault 33(whoever stayed behind) and possible Chet and some others that moved in Vault 32 might have suspicions on where Norm might be after of few days of not seeing them, assuming Bud Brain doesn't contact Betty via the computer with how Norm did to find out about Vault 31 in the first place, maybe another uprising might happen in Vault 33 and the new residents of Vault 32 just like how the original Vault 32 residents passed away/died after finding out about Vault-tec and what Vault 31 really was about
@@neroxfrostbyte7461 the uprising wouldnt be the same since everyone in vault 32 died and destroying vault 33 would leave vault 31 with no breeding stock thus a failure in its experiment

True, but it wouldn't surprise me if all company jar brain employee have a way or plan to get their bodies back once all their experiments are done. Like implanting their brain back in a cloned body or something of the like.
I was just saying he had to have pissed off someone after that meeting. It seems like a twisted punishment. In fallout four when you go to the jar brain place they show logs of the people going insane from the revolution of being brains.

I do hope Norm isn't trapped there forever, there's so much potential to continue this storyline in season 2 and he was among the standout characters of the show
Bud was already a loose mouth in the flashback, so him having conversation with a clueless stranger for the first time in 200+ years is probably the reason why he's so excited to be able to deliver his villain speech
Bud is like that one guy who mentions something tragic that happened to him, says "Oh, I shouldn't talk about that..." And then just dumps the entire ordeal on you anyway. He's such a bastard, I love him.
I think there's interesting ways for this to go. Norm could play a major role in the rest of the Vaults. I don't think he's just going to crawl into a chamber and sleep. He may threaten to pull the plug on the others that are asleep if Bud doesn't tell him how to get out, or to go back to Vault 33 and stop Betty. It would be silly for his story to just end here.
I feel like Norm shouldn't have announced his entrance there, nor his exit. He should've tried his best to be unnoticed. Weird course of action for an intelligent character.
@@aeternalux9175 I think I do, 8 episodes limitations. A lot of the writings felt rushed in the end and they could've done more on the episodes. I hope S2 is more than 8 considering S1's success.
Announcing or not wouldn't matter, he got there by informing the Vault 31 that he needs to go there and if there were an actuall people they would see him anyways, because again, he got there by sending an e-mail to Bud
Vault Tec and the Enclave were initially partners - The Enclave would use it's resources to protect the vaults and carry out experiments on the surface while the Vault Tec management would gradually emerge from cryo-sleep to breed and build their numbers, the Enclave however realised that Vault Tec planned to betray them once enough Vault Tec managers were awake to take over the running of the world. This caused the Enclave to pre-emptively declare war on Vault Tec to destroy them before they could take over. In Fallout 2 and 3 The Enclave are the primary antagonists, they are generally hated throughout the wasteland because despite being the last remnants of the US government they have spent the last two centuries developing a kind of pure-blood supremacism where anyone with even the slightest trace of radiation is deemed a threat and killed.
Bud brain: so I can't let you leave so you might as well get in the freeze pod or you can starve..... Norm: *cannibal perk unlocked* Sidenote if bud was gonna trap Norm, it was a TERRIBLE plan to trap him with the vaults prized assets, just saying
Norm is my favorite character of The Fallout Show. He is a complex person, but still easy enough to understand. He isn't confrontational like his Sister, but hes far more perceptive then she is, Lucy is the type of Player that does Moriartys quests and goes through all the little steps, Norm is a speed runner that skips straight to project purity. I would give both his perception and intelligence skills 10 each. He is the only character who doesn't get sidetracked from his goals by random quests I feel like he found Coopers wife we will probably see what happens to Norm when Lucy and Cooper catch up in the Campaign they are going the slower route. Norm is very courageous while he isn't confrontational he has to know the truth above all else and when you know you are gonna discover something horrible on the other side of that door but still take that gigantic leap forward anyway is mad bravery. We see a young boy became a man just in season 1 alone I would say that Norm stepping foot into Vault 31 redeems him of the guilt he has from hiding during the raider attack. Norm is initially portrayed as a slacker but hes unenthusiastic because he knows those basic Vault jobs aren't worthy of his intellect he needs to know that what he is doing will matter and be truly useful. He is meant for great things I see him being either Overseer or some other faction leader in the future. He don't participate in the family book club cause he probably already read the books they are years ago.
I think Moldaver was the designer and inventor behind the cry pods. Also she had mentioned Vault Tec bought up every company she had worked for, maybe they took her design? It could also explain how she is still alive at this point.
The contrast between Rehoboam from Westworld and the stabby needle Roomba brain had me lit. The reveal is so anti-clamatic and absolutely hilarious. Nolan seems self-aware and has a great sense of humor.
I think it's meant to be another sign that Bud isn't as important as he believes: he clearly thinks he's cock of the walk, but after having to be bailed out at his own conference by Barb, he just wasn't worthy of the really nice hardware that more capable employees get. So, Stanislaus Braun gets a nice cosy cryopod and eternity in a virtual reality playground, Bud gets a cheapass scaled-down robobrain Roomba that doesn't know shit unless the Overseers keep him in the loop.
son sus fieles subordinados, meterían a Norm en la capsula y volverían a las suyas yo lo dejaría en esa esquina y volvería a poner la escoba, a ver quien resiste mas o podría decirle "de hecho si hay una fuente de carne justo aquí" y me le quedaría mirando, a ver que hace
I like Bud. At first he seems comical and almost pitiable in his current state. Then it turns out he's a big part of the plan to ensure a dystopian hellscape where people wre controlled by Valt-Tec, alongside the plot to wipe out the surface.
well there are 3 outcomes. 1: he becomes a part of vault tec "management" 2: he threatens to kill everyone in those cryo pods 3: he commit unalive himself
The fact that the robot was able to scan enough of Norm's DNA to figure he shares 50% of it with a visual scan is insane. It takes weeks for a DNA test to come back, and thats with a full cheekswab.
It likely wasn't a visual scan, visible light only makes up a tiny part of the EM spectrum, they just use visible light in the scene for effect. So that we have something to look at.
It's the future where they can put people in cryogenic suspension, re-attach (somebody else's) fingers and put brains in robots and you're saying the DNA scan wasn't realistic enough?
The terrible secret is... **DUMMM-DUMMMMM** : The vaults water tastes a bit like lemon. Among all the vaults this is prolly the whitest secret i can think of. Quite un-Fallout-ish.
Well, no, the secret is that they weren't shelters for an enemy attack. It was a deliberate and planned game to keep a useful few alive while the rest were killed by the people who made the Vaults. Imagine learning your entire heritage ended life on the Earth.
¿alguien más se pregunta donde están los niños? solo los vimos cuando Lucy les daba clases fácilmente podrían haberlos puesto en la fiesta y luego que Hank anunciara que era hora de irse a dormir antes de que comenzara la masacre y luego en la reasignación del Vault 32 explicaran que solo moverían solteros y familias enteras, dejando a todos los huérfanos en Vault 33
What I don't understand is how Bud or Hank didn't realize that something had gone wrong in 32 well before Moldaver came in with the raiders. They went for two years without any contact with whoever was the overseer there and that was fine? And you'd think that their pip boys would have been programmed to send out a warning if all the dwellers kicked the bucket.
Maybe it was bud who killed them all when they found out the truth, waiting for the bodies to decompose or something then moldave comes in pretending to be an overseer
I'm quite impressed by the ambient soundtrack. For those who are unaware, it is a direct homage to the soundrack from the Glow- a section in the original Fallout game. In that area, the player explored their way through the remains of an underground base that had been saturated with bombs at the start of the apocalypse. In fact, the sounds coming out of the Robo-Brain in the beginning directly mirror the ambient speech playing in the background of that area- the ghosts of the comms officers in their final moments as they monitored the unfolding situation.
@@danster442 True enough, not sure if he did but it seems like he turned into a brain to look after things from the start? Hopefully not and he was an older overseer and had a decent life before turning into a brain
There are still too many unknowns regarding characters and events of this first season. How Bud came to become a roomba will probably be explained next season.
@@danster442 actually the main reason why many of the rich people resorted into turning to a robo brain was because they were promised that after the apocalypse,they would get their body back and live normally again. Which of course it didn't happened.
The amount of people who don't realize that's Bud's brain is killing me 2:25 he legit is telling you all it's him. I mean if you want to go further into this theory, he's literally voicing the brain in the credits...
Norm spends a VERY uncomfortable amount of time spent with his back turned to the robot that was just minutes ago trying to inject him...
Fallout has the strongest plot armor of any series, television or game.
It kinda worked, I was uncomfortable the entire time xD

I think there's interesting ways for this to go. Norm could play a major role in the rest of the Vaults. I don't think he's just going to crawl into a chamber and sleep. He may threaten to pull the plug on the others that are asleep if Bud doesn't tell him how to get out, or to go back to Vault 33 and stop Betty. It would be silly for his story to just end here.
Considering Fallout universe, nothing too scary XD
this is definitely much better that plant monsters i really have to say plant monsters were a bad idea guys
The goddanm sound system, grandma better be grateful for that chello.
Kind of ironic that Amazon will most likely take this route in similar circumstances
Jeff Bezos becoming Bud and Elon Musk becoming House would be the peak of dark comedy in the world we live in.
I feel like Norm shouldn't have announced his entrance there, nor his exit. He should've tried his best to be unnoticed. Weird course of action for an intelligent character.
No idea why they did this.
@@aeternalux9175 I think I do, 8 episodes limitations. A lot of the writings felt rushed in the end and they could've done more on the episodes. I hope S2 is more than 8 considering S1's success.
Dude was literally going into uncharted waters and Norm was always shown to be the most curious one.
Yes, he's smart, but it doesn't mean he's wise.
Announcing or not wouldn't matter, he got there by informing the Vault 31 that he needs to go there and if there were an actuall people they would see him anyways, because again, he got there by sending an e-mail to Bud
I mean, I don’t blame him for not seeing a robot brain on a room as a threat.
This whole thing felt like such a Portal bit
Norm was a character that I was expecting to be extremely annoying but he was probably in my top 3 characters from the show
Managed Democracy?.... *helldivers theme plays
Buds behaviour is a symptom of him going insane.
He wasn't that far from Insane when he was a living breathing human in the first place.
‘Wiped the surface clean?’ Sounds suspiciously like something the enclave wanted to do, maybe because vault tech is an arm of the enclave
Vault Tec and the Enclave were initially partners - The Enclave would use it's resources to protect the vaults and carry out experiments on the surface while the Vault Tec management would gradually emerge from cryo-sleep to breed and build their numbers, the Enclave however realised that Vault Tec planned to betray them once enough Vault Tec managers were awake to take over the running of the world. This caused the Enclave to pre-emptively declare war on Vault Tec to destroy them before they could take over. In Fallout 2 and 3 The Enclave are the primary antagonists, they are generally hated throughout the wasteland because despite being the last remnants of the US government they have spent the last two centuries developing a kind of pure-blood supremacism where anyone with even the slightest trace of radiation is deemed a threat and killed.
Eugenics, master race of managers from breeding stock, yep, enclave
Robobrain but in this case robo roomba.
"Unleash the Murder Roombas!"
*They're all like Bud*
"Crap..."
Roombabrain?
Bud brain: so I can't let you leave so you might as well get in the freeze pod or you can starve.....
Norm: *cannibal perk unlocked*
Sidenote if bud was gonna trap Norm, it was a TERRIBLE plan to trap him with the vaults prized assets, just saying
Indeed. "Say... What are the ice cube people made from? Is that meat I smell?" 🤣
I bet that in Season 2, we get cold opened on Norm in a seemingly ideal setting, but then we see that we've been Tranquility Lane'd.
I hope Norm gets the high Int high Luck build. I want him on the surface with a plasma rifle and an alien shooter.
Norm is my favorite character of The Fallout Show. He is a complex person, but still easy enough to understand. He isn't confrontational like his Sister, but hes far more perceptive then she is, Lucy is the type of Player that does Moriartys quests and goes through all the little steps, Norm is a speed runner that skips straight to project purity. I would give both his perception and intelligence skills 10 each. He is the only character who doesn't get sidetracked from his goals by random quests I feel like he found Coopers wife we will probably see what happens to Norm when Lucy and Cooper catch up in the Campaign they are going the slower route. Norm is very courageous while he isn't confrontational he has to know the truth above all else and when you know you are gonna discover something horrible on the other side of that door but still take that gigantic leap forward anyway is mad bravery. We see a young boy became a man just in season 1 alone I would say that Norm stepping foot into Vault 31 redeems him of the guilt he has from hiding during the raider attack.
Norm is initially portrayed as a slacker but hes unenthusiastic because he knows those basic Vault jobs aren't worthy of his intellect he needs to know that what he is doing will matter and be truly useful. He is meant for great things I see him being either Overseer or some other faction leader in the future. He don't participate in the family book club cause he probably already read the books they are years ago.
Bud is so funny here.
I think Moldaver was the designer and inventor behind the cry pods. Also she had mentioned Vault Tec bought up every company she had worked for, maybe they took her design? It could also explain how she is still alive at this point.
I really like Norms character.
That ‘management’ quote hits so hard bc that’s yk that’s what people are doing today.
"You'll never find out"
"Ope, he's gonna find out."
The contrast between Rehoboam from Westworld and the stabby needle Roomba brain had me lit. The reveal is so anti-clamatic and absolutely hilarious.
Nolan seems self-aware and has a great sense of humor.
He didnt write this show though. Credit goes to the writers!
this guy deserves more roles.
My favorite character by far.. I wanna see more of the vaults!!
I feel so bad for Norm.
Rico finding out that Jackson became a ghoul.
They couldn't give bud a better robot body? He was trapped behind a mop
I'm quite satisfied with his arrangement. Seems like a fitting reward.
I think it's meant to be another sign that Bud isn't as important as he believes: he clearly thinks he's cock of the walk, but after having to be bailed out at his own conference by Barb, he just wasn't worthy of the really nice hardware that more capable employees get.
So, Stanislaus Braun gets a nice cosy cryopod and eternity in a virtual reality playground, Bud gets a cheapass scaled-down robobrain Roomba that doesn't know shit unless the Overseers keep him in the loop.
He found a *-"Rule34"-* Vault 34
That’s how we start this crap?
@@user-pz3si6fl8p Remember to wipe your surface clean!
Id have just started breaking the pods open. Eventually his peogramming would see keeping me here would be worse than me leaving.
son sus fieles subordinados, meterían a Norm en la capsula y volverían a las suyas
yo lo dejaría en esa esquina y volvería a poner la escoba, a ver quien resiste mas
o podría decirle "de hecho si hay una fuente de carne justo aquí" y me le quedaría mirando, a ver que hace
Norm is like your 456th run, knowing damn well what's the procedure to the main quests.
I can't get over the fact that the Amazon Prime subtitles called it "a brain on a Roomba"
I like Bud. At first he seems comical and almost pitiable in his current state. Then it turns out he's a big part of the plan to ensure a dystopian hellscape where people wre controlled by Valt-Tec, alongside the plot to wipe out the surface.
I really wonder what will happen to Norm next season.
He gets eaten
well there are 3 outcomes.
1: he becomes a part of vault tec "management"
2: he threatens to kill everyone in those cryo pods
3: he commit unalive himself
He goes to cryo-sleep(idk how to spell that) himself
1 Cryo-sleep
2 In the wasteland for the a water chip
3 ???
Smash the Brain in the jar!
Wait... WASN'T THIS FOO IN HANNAH MONTANA!?
yes rico
An actor in another show? Oh my god!
Feels like yesterday watching him as Rico in Hannah Montana lol
debe ser su tataranieto
pues ese puesto en la playa si que debió vender bien si le alcanzo para un refugio
@@WhoShorts_ A lot of people often do that with other actors as well for the lols.
similar people turn into robo brain at far harbour vault-tec
at least the Robobrains got more mobility
Bud had +9 charisma but +1 intelligence
Norm put all his SPECIAL points in Perception and Intelligence. That’s how he got this far.
I have not watched this show but I’ve watched this clip countless times. I just love the dialogue and how he delivers “management.”
I love how bud is so calm in this scene😂
The stuff in the needle is one hundred percent expired.....
I think Norm might end up being the biggest threat to Vault Tec and their plans.
The fact that the robot was able to scan enough of Norm's DNA to figure he shares 50% of it with a visual scan is insane.
It takes weeks for a DNA test to come back, and thats with a full cheekswab.
It likely wasn't a visual scan, visible light only makes up a tiny part of the EM spectrum, they just use visible light in the scene for effect. So that we have something to look at.
It's the future where they can put people in cryogenic suspension, re-attach (somebody else's) fingers and put brains in robots and you're saying the DNA scan wasn't realistic enough?
@@krashd the roomba did some sci-fi spectrophotometry on his ass
The terrible secret is... **DUMMM-DUMMMMM** : The vaults water tastes a bit like lemon.
Among all the vaults this is prolly the whitest secret i can think of. Quite un-Fallout-ish.
Well, no, the secret is that they weren't shelters for an enemy attack. It was a deliberate and planned game to keep a useful few alive while the rest were killed by the people who made the Vaults. Imagine learning your entire heritage ended life on the Earth.
Dude looks like a grown up goblin
Anyone else listen to Budbot and think of Wheatley from Portal 2?
Nope, one is clearly American and the other is from Bristol, England.
@krashd Tbf, replace Bud with Wheatley and it'd still be the same.
RoombaBrain Bud is a joy i hope we get more of him next season
The Ghoul is gonna eat him with a spoon
Maybe he's the next protagonist for the next fallout game
This game would be very... short
This is like beating Fallout if it was by Ubisoft.
I really wonder why Norm didn't apply BOOT FORCE TRAUMA to the robobrain roomba, especially while it was gloating
I love how the Amazon captions call him "brain on a roomba" 🤣
Vault-Tec. Vault-Tec never changes.
The limitations of that body
"Wipe the surface clean" is a very misused term for using highly contaminated nuclear bombs.
So 32 and 33 are technically part of 31’s experiment? Neat
I honestly thought they were all synths but this was better
¿alguien más se pregunta donde están los niños?
solo los vimos cuando Lucy les daba clases
fácilmente podrían haberlos puesto en la fiesta y luego que Hank anunciara que era hora de irse a dormir antes de que comenzara la masacre
y luego en la reasignación del Vault 32 explicaran que solo moverían solteros y familias enteras, dejando a todos los huérfanos en Vault 33
Anyone notice they didn't clean up after the raiders raiding them? They let norm explore the place twice before they start to clean up the culling.
A robobrain?....whats next securitrons roboco model 2060 b
I really hope he gets to meet up with his sister in the 2nd series,because she’s about the only other person in the world that would care about him.
It’s hard for me to look at Norm and not think “Dang, this kid is literally me, and I wanna kick my own ass…”
What a curious looking roomba I just found and it talks too🤣🤣
What I don't understand is how Bud or Hank didn't realize that something had gone wrong in 32 well before Moldaver came in with the raiders. They went for two years without any contact with whoever was the overseer there and that was fine? And you'd think that their pip boys would have been programmed to send out a warning if all the dwellers kicked the bucket.
Maybe it was bud who killed them all when they found out the truth, waiting for the bodies to decompose or something then moldave comes in pretending to be an overseer
I'm quite impressed by the ambient soundtrack. For those who are unaware, it is a direct homage to the soundrack from the Glow- a section in the original Fallout game. In that area, the player explored their way through the remains of an underground base that had been saturated with bombs at the start of the apocalypse. In fact, the sounds coming out of the Robo-Brain in the beginning directly mirror the ambient speech playing in the background of that area- the ghosts of the comms officers in their final moments as they monitored the unfolding situation.
My god… war… war never changes.
With THEES... love the way that's delivered
Only thing i kept seeing in this scene was all those prime normals ready to be united in unity
Super managers 😂😂
why did he bother turning himself into a brain in a robot? surely he'd have a better life as an overseer
Can’t live forever as a human.
@@danster442 True enough, not sure if he did but it seems like he turned into a brain to look after things from the start? Hopefully not and he was an older overseer and had a decent life before turning into a brain
Obviously because he is the main overseer and he needs to live as much as possible
There are still too many unknowns regarding characters and events of this first season. How Bud came to become a roomba will probably be explained next season.
@@danster442 actually the main reason why many of the rich people resorted into turning to a robo brain was because they were promised that after the apocalypse,they would get their body back and live normally again. Which of course it didn't happened.
The amount of people who don't realize that's Bud's brain is killing me 2:25 he legit is telling you all it's him.
I mean if you want to go further into this theory, he's literally voicing the brain in the credits...
Literally everyone got that it was him lol like they blurt it out
@@ottokaare5925 go through the list of comments on here it's wild the amount of people who defend that they think it isn't.
@@ottokaare5925 if you look through the comments that's definitely not the case
@@theyearwas1473 I did look through them and I haven't seen anyone say that it isn't bud
