First Time Watching Fallout S1 Ep4 Reaction and Commentary

[@catindigo9907]

Ever since I saw this episode when I wake up I stare at the ceiling and say to myself, time to get up, a$$ jerky don't make itself.

[@j.f.fisher5318]

I'm gonna have to try that. Should make for an interesting conversation with my therapist at least... 😂

[@jasonrd316]

That poor woman (who we know doesn't like her husband, and watched her kill people while pregnant with a fork in her eye), might not be the one getting taken advantage of by this gullible guy...

You can’t “take the box” In the video game.

[@MandyMooMovies]

Well...that would have been good to know earlier 😂😅

[@pltlr]

@@MandyMooMoviesone of those video game logic things they have done so well in this show.

The Great Plague of 77 is a story, a cover for something else. The Ghoul gives Lucy some great survival lessons.

[@probablysomeguy4806]

11:27 One way to become a ghoul is through radiation mutation. If you survive being irradiated for a time, you may become a ghoul. There are other ways as well. There are cases of ghouls never even showing signs of being feral no matter how long they live. There are ghouls that are so full of radiation that they start glowing and have not gone feral. but vast majority of ghouls do turn feral after a while, some taking longer than others.

[@placeboobshere5458]

The "vials" are unidentified and we do not know what is in them. Since we have never seen the ghouls use vials before in the Fallout universe, we don't even know if the vial actually work or if the vial sellers just tell the ghouls lies to sell it.

[@j.f.fisher5318]

Yeah, when i first was watching I was confused that Coop's symptoms when he doesn't get the medicine don't look like he's turning feral. I thought it was a mistake but now I suspect that it's a hint that the vials aren't what he thinks they are. I suspect cough syrup and now he's dependent and his lungs fill up when he doesn't take it. Something like that. Good theory video on the subject "Is The Ghoul Being Scammed."

[@rubenlopez3364]

It seems to work if Coop stopped getting sick when he got more of them

[@placeboobshere5458]

@rubenlopez3364 Yeah, it seems to work, but placebo drugs also seem to work when people taking them are told they work. I'm not saying they're not exactly what's advertised, I'm just saying that this new thing we've never heard of before could be a scam.

[@csb78nm]

I've been reading the comments about "gratuitous violence." I'm guessing none of you were in Afghanistan or Iraq. Humans without the veneer of civilization are violent. This show doesn't pull any punches depicting that, and good for them.

[@knytestorme]

Hey Mandy, that snacks bit at the start made me wonder if you have a PO Box, thought you might appreciate some aussie tim-tams and other treats :)

[@RomulessI]

The gore mixed with humor and 50s music are three essential elements of Fallout. If you were to tone down or alter any of them it would throw everything off.

[@means_well]

Snyder's honey mustard pretzel bites are a constant happy spot in the snack aisle

[@JustGrowingUp84]

And now the Ghoul is ugly, strong, but has no dignity... :( Also, you shouldn't need to apologize for not being able to handle gore, we're all different people. I'm happy that you do like the story!

[@sid3954]

03:11 Check her face out... CLASSIC gross-out haha.

[@MandyMooMovies]

Lots more where that came from 😂

[@marcs1951]

I'm eating combos pepperoni pizza. I'll have to try yours next time

[@MandyMooMovies]

Oooooo those are good too. Let me know what you think of the pretzel balls when you have them :)

[@billstephens396]

- crunches pretzle bites without issue - What? Rad Roaches are gross? - keeps eating -

[@dagiel9061]

Right now you probably finish the season. The world of fallout It's very dark. And it surrounds itself with dark campy humor, and music.

[@friendzky4136]

just subs , your production values is top notch , and your reaction is best best ,

[@MandyMooMovies]

Thank you so much for watching! Welc9me to the channel 🥰

[@luckypanda7707]

"Take the box" yeah kind of want both hands free up in a nuclear wasteland

[@briansneary7535]

[@starlord3496]

Lets go Moo

[@rromano158]

This show is the first time, that I know of, that there is a "medicine" ghouls need to "ingest/inhale" to keep from going feral. It is not mentioned in Fallout 4, which is the only game I've played. I am guessing that the "medicine" is a combination of different drugs including Radaway, RadX, and possibly fluid from the adrenal glands of either normal people or non-feral ghouls.

[@JustGrowingUp84]

Yeah, he seemed to take all of the drugs he found, regardless of their type. None of the games mention it. Maybe we'll get an explanation in season 2.
