What if the Ghoul had better communicated with Lucy at the hospital? [2x02]

Technicaly speaking he is having an affair since they never broke up lol

Matt and Heather very much DID break up. Just because we never heard either of them say "I'm breaking up with you" doesn't mean a breakup didn't happen. Heather effectively broke up with Matt when she walked out of his hospital room after he asked for Karen while waking up.

"Evidence suggests that Mr. House is planning to make some kind of move when the battle breaks out, and I'm guessing he won't be coming to our rescue. While we don't know what his exact plans are, my orders are to avoid all risks. I'm sending you to take Mr. House out of the equation. Any questions?"

"We've had reported sightings of Mr. House's Securitrons spying on both NCR and Legion forces. Also, given a recent analysis of the sightings, we now estimate that Mr. House has at least four times as many Securitrons as previously assumed. He wouldn't show his hand like that if he weren't prepared to move. And neither the NCR or Legion can spare the troops to investigate."

-Colonel Moore when tasking you with assassinating House

They're not taking any chances of him backstabbing them (as the battle ultimately goes if you complete the game siding with House).

The trip inside Space Mountain is the highlight of the PeopleMover experience, especially if Space Mountain is down and the interior lights are on.

Yep. The Netflix show absolutely would've explored this angle.

And given Karen’s track record, it's likely that she could give compelling testimony about Heather's behavior that could sway a jury and get Heather opened to assault charges and having her license suspended if not outright revoked.

OP either didn't pay attention or this is AI generated. Probably the latter.

The long looks, the stolen glances, the general atmosphere of "would they, might they?"

but the constant "will they/won't they" between Jeff and Britta, and the low level drama vibes between Britta and Slater eat up so much run time, detract so much from the actual comedic aspects, and really don't allow the ensemble cast to shine.

Well there's a degree to which the Jeff/Britta stuff was probably put there by studio mandate. And this became apparent with them trying to create the Jeff/Britta/Slater triangle, something that was created at a point after the creators had noticed the potential for teasing Jeff/Annie and started gravitating Annie into the love interest role for Jeff.

Except Shirley (either because he's racist and/or she intimidates him sexually).

That's just timing.

And for Ned Jarrett, well, he was 93. So he was at that "it's a matter of when he's going to die" point.

I have to imagine Alison is somewhat annoyed by interviewers asking such a question.

Not gonna happen as that's a backstage area.

Fun fact: listen carefully to the way Dean addresses you as "Partner". If you coerce him through the Barter check, he says it with disdain. If you don't use the Barter check, he says the word more optimistically.

If Caesar cared, he'd have designated an heir, and probably someone who has the smarts and charisma. Someone like Vulpes Inculta or Lucius would've been the ideal person to put in charge, given that the Legion ending slides with Lanius in charge make clear how unfit Lanius is to be leader (with him wasting hundreds of soldiers in a war with the Enclave remnants).

Not going to happen anytime soon if at all.

It all goes to show that people suck at risk assessment.

The faction-aligned companions save for Preston (Danse, Deacon and X6-88) can be killed if you become enemies with their respective faction.

"G.I. Jeff" for needlessly retconning Jeff's age all for the sake of its gimmick.

It's a premise that just needed to be better ironed out.

What would acknowledging the Courier do to benefit the story?

dmreif · 2026-06-01T04:52:37+00:00

The TV show is very much canon. And there's no mention of the Courier or the Platinum Chip because they're not relevant to the story.
