You Can Depend on Me

Given by: Alice McLafferty [Crimson Caravan Company] (M12:2)

Your first task is to deliver the invoice to Dr. Hildern at [Camp McCarran] (MsB:28). Enter the [Camp McCarran terminal building] (M25:1), where Thomas Hildern (M25A:1) #1 can be found. Return to Alice (M12:2). You'll be assigned with three more tasks. The order of completing them doesn't matter.

Go to the [Atomic Wrangler Casino] (M6:3), where you'll find Henry Jamison #2. Speak with him about quitting his job at the Crimson Caravan Company

• say that you'll mention him while talking to NCR members
• [Speech 50] inform the Omertas that Henry has no money
• make a deal - accede to the conditions or [Barter 50] threaten him with the Omertas
• kill Henry

Return to Alice (M12:2) and receive your reward which depends on the way you've dealt with Henry. It is 150 caps if you've killed him, 300 caps if you've agreed to pay his debt and his severance pay, 400 caps if you've agreed to pay only his debt, 500 caps if you made him leave.

Go to the [Gun Runner's] (MsB:11) #1. You can't be seen during this mission. The best way is to wait till night and then use the Stealth boy. Open the gate [Lockpick 50] and enter the Gun Runner's factory. Move to the other room where the terminal is located #2. Log in and grab the information off the terminal. Head back out being undetected and return to Alice (M12:2) to get your reward. It is 300 caps if you've been attacked, 400 if you've been detected but there was no shooting and 500 if everything went according to plan.

You'll find Cass at the [Mojave Outpost] (MsF:15) among the barracks (M24:1) #1. Tell her that Crimson Caravan Company wants to buy out her own caravan. Make an offer and push on the subject.

Solution 1

• [Barter 50] offer her additional 750 caps (from your pocket)

You'll buy out the caravan.

Solution 2

• [Barter 75] do not offer anything more. Tell her that you want to spend money on drinking

Cass will take the challenge but you need to get 12 bottles of Whisky. She'll get drunk and no matter which dialog line you choose next, she'll agree to sign the papers.

Solution 3

• [Speech 50] convince her that the outpost is not a place for a person like her

You need to talk to Jackson at the [Mojave Outpost] (M24:2). Convince him to let Cass free:

• kill him
• complete [Can You Find it in Your Heart?] for him

A side quest is unlocked: [Heartache by the Number].

Solution 4

• [Speech 75] tell her that she'll be responsible for caravan's doom

After a short conversation you'll buy out the caravan.

Ending

Return to Alice (M12:2) and tell her that Cass has sold the caravan.
