One For My Baby

Given by: Boone [Novac] (M4:2)

Boone is a sniper who is on duty in the dinosaur's mouth #1 at night. To talk to him you have to be there between 9PM and 9AM #2. Ask him if he expect any visitors. [Speech 41] suggest that you could tip him off if you meet the right person. Boone needs someone whom he can trust. You have to find out who has sold his kidnapped wife into slavery. If you succeed you have to bring this person in front of the Dino and put on the beret you got from Boone. It will be a sign for him to kill that person.

During your investigation you can question a few Novac inhabitants but you do not have to do it.

There are seven inhabitants you may question:

Manny Vergas (M4:3), Ranger Andy (M4:5), Cliff Briscoe (M4:6), Dusty McBride (M4:7), Alice McBride (M4:7), Jeannie May Crowford (M4:8), No-bark Noonan (M4:9).

As for No-bark you may force him [Strength 6] to speak.

Listen very carefully what people want to tell you. Now you have two choices:

• if you have no idea who is guilty, take anyone and tell him/her that you want to show him/her something. Go in front of the Dino and put Boone's beret on. Sniper will kill that person.

No-bark Noonan is the most important character. Follow his suggestions and head to the motel lobby (M4:1). You'll find a locked safe there just behind the counter #1. You can open it by yourself [Lockpick 25] or with the key (pickpocket it from Jeannie May Crawford). There is a Bill of Sale note inside which tells who is guilty - Jeannie May Crowford. Go to her (M4:8) and tell her that you want to show her something. Go in front of the Dino #2 and put Boone's beret on. She'll be shot down.

Once the culprit (or innocence person) is dead, return to Boone (M4:2).

• show him a Bill of Sale note
• tell him that you had a hunch; [Speech 55] you've used the deduction to find the culprit
• tell him that you wanted to get rid of random person - he will attack you.

You can ask Boone to be your companion. [Intelligence 6] tell him that snipers work in teams.
