Maximus didn't think he was 200 years old. The Brotherhood gives their students basically zero education outside of combat and technology. Maximus has only a vague understanding of the pre-Fallout world. So when Lucy asked him about what happened, quote, "after the bombs dropped", Maximus thought she was talking about Shady Sands. Because to him, that's when "the bombs dropped".

[@4UGOY]

When Maximus said that "Titus died running," it wasn't a lie. Titus panicked and ran away from Yao guai (the mutated bear), instead of bravely engaging in battle and destroying him, as the code of the Brotherhood of Steel dictates. He was a coward.

[@CedricBassman]

Yeah. He died running (away), meaning he died a coward. It's crazy how many people don't get that and think of it in a literal sense...

[@Krucifus]

I was surprised when Cooper repeated the snarky line to the crowd, and then was surprised again when she took it seriously.

[@EmeraldKing6987]

Something cool about the ending is that Norm, Maximus, the Ghoul/Cooper, and Lucy all got what they wanted in the end, Norm wanted to know what was in vault 31 but it caused him to be trapped, Maximus wanted to be a knight, which he got but now he’s stuck being that and can’t be with Lucy in the vault, and Lucy wanted to find her dad, but ended up learning everything about him and how he was a villain, then there is the ghoul which didn’t find his thing yet but cooper did as well, he wanted to know more about vault tech and ended up learning about their plans when all he wanted to know was if he could take his dog

[@Retrovorious]

22:38 Lucy had radiation poisoning so she can’t be a ghoul. Ghouls will regenerate from radiation.

[@thedarkknight2221]

For non gamers “War, war never changes” is practically the official motto of the Fallout franchise. This show is a true cautionary tale not just of letting corporations having too much power, but also the dangers of psychopaths in power. Psychopaths like Lucy’s dad and Cooper’s wife are the greatest threats to not just humanity but the world. They have no sense of respect for people or the earth, they will use or kill whoever they have to in order to get what they want. They will see the world burn if it means they can be the kings of the ashes.

[@mariuszpudzianowski8400]

Which brings interesting point that even the Master was better than them - when convinced his plan would fail (no morality bs, just facts - love it) he decided to destroy himself and large part of his operation. Lucy's dad definitely wouldn't do that.

Bud seeming so nice and "normal". One of the books on the rise of the Nazis referred to it as "the banality of evil." Most of it's leadership came across as perfectly normal people you'd interact with during daily life, not the rabid monsters most would expect. The Ghoul's wife gave an early hint about the ending. When she was talking to Cooper about having a place in the vaults she said she could choose one of the good ones. She knew which ones she didn't want to go to. She also says when, not if, the bombs fall. She already knew the plan, everything was decided except the date.

[@Krucifus]

I wouldn't be shocked if they show Norm finding Barb and maybe even the daughter in Vault 31 at the start of Season 2.

[@theekatspajamas]

​@Krucifus I don't think they'd be in 31. The people in there are under bud, and barb seems to be on the same level or higher up in vault-tec than bud. Barb does mention a vault for people to manage all other vaults, so she's likely in there if she's still around

[@4UGOY]

Vault 33's experiment was Meritocracy.

[@chrism7395]

It's an aristocracy/classism - everyone in 33 has been conditioned and selected to only appoint Bud's Buds (the ruling/upper class) into positions of authority and Bud's Buds ensure that only the ruling class get those positions by moving/splitting up potential opposition out of the Vault or into marriages with them. The election they have is purely for show as they know most of the population is a sucker for a slogan.

[@caffeinedelusions]

One of the best moves Nolan made was deciding not to do a straight adaptation of one of the established games. Fallout is a lot like Skyrim and Mass Effect, in that it’s a game where player choice and the impact of that on the larger world is something people get invested in. If Nolan had adapted an established game but cemented certain choices that people in the player base could have done differently in their playthroughs, that would’ve alienated some portion of the audience. In giving us a new story with a range of characters we could fall in love with and root for, he instead brought all those people together.

[@coldflamebluedragon196]

The cold Fusion code was the release date of the original Fallout game. I am beyond excited for what Season 2 has waiting for us. The more I look at Ella Purnell in this role the more I’m convinced that she’s perfect as Elizabeth from Bioshock Infinite

Gotta love loyalty to your pets. One of my favorite Twilight Zone's is The Hunt. An old hunter and his dog drown chasing after a raccoon. Later on they come across the gate to the afterlife. The gatekeeper informs the hunter that pets arent allowed, and they have their own separate place. Not wanting to be separated from his dog, they leave the gate and continue on. They come across a 2nd gate where the keeper tells them THIS is the true gate to heaven. The other was the gate to hell... pets were not allowed because they would have smelled the brimstone and warned their masters.

[@traydevon]

You could say Titus died “running,” because that’s when the bear fatally wounded him. Maximus just didn’t save him from his injuries, lol.

[@greywarden5513]

9:32 & 17:06 It hits different when you realize Maximus probably doesn’t know about love, everything he feels with or about Lucy is his 1st time.

[@spud69g]

23:46 Titus DID die running. He was running from the Yau-Guai (Fu*k f*ck fu*k while running away) and got thrown against a boulder which either knocked him out ornhe tried playing dead afterwards. Screaming help the whole time. So Maximus didn't lie there.

[@folcotook3049]

Actually Titus did die from injuries he got running from the Yao Guai (the mutated bear), so it wasn't a lie (not completely). One of the party guests had a comment that Coop was doing kids birthday parties to pay alimony, so we got that nugget to let us know they divorced.

[@patrickholt2270]

But if he doesn't know where his daughter is, and he's pursuing Vault-Tec execs to find out, then sometime after the bombs fell, Vault-Tec must have kidnapped her away from him, presumably on his wife's orders.

[@Krucifus]

That fact makes me think that it wasn't Vault-tec who dropped the bombs initially. I think they were prepared to, but I think someone else beat them to it or schedules got shifted unexpectedly. I doubt Coop's wife would let their daughter be that near a bomb if she knew when it was going to happen.

[@kentinson1670]

​​@@Krucifusdoes Vault Tec really have the power to drop tbe bombs? IIRC, US and China were the main powers in the Fallout universe. So it might be possible that US and China started nuking each other and Vault Tec miscalculated the bombs dropping?

The missing children of Vault 33 is a continuity problem that only became clear to me the second time I watched the series. In her intro in Episode 1, Lucy is shown teaching American History (now with Ethics!) to a classroom full of children, but they are never seen again. It would have been difficult to show children attending the wedding, though, as they likely would have done under ordinary circumstances.

[@peadarruane6582]

@@marcofogli4317 aye there are some inconsistancies without a doubt, but minor ones when it comes to the actual story telling in my opinion.

[@gork8468]

If they really were going for a 50's type society feel, there would be no reason to show the children in any of the other groups scenes in the season. They wouldn't attend a wedding, they wouldn't attend a vault meeting to discuss what to do with captives, and Betty might not have assigned anyone with children (except Steph) to 32 and they wouldn't be invited to a send off. Children underfoot at adult functions is a relatively new thing. I grew up in the 80s and *any* social event for my parents meant babysitter, same as everyone else in my class. They could have, however, been seen wandering the halls - so I won't attribute too much to writing choice over production choice (children are expensive to keep around a set).

[@christopherthomas250]

This is a rare channel that picked up on this show’s actual plot…in particular, that Maximus isn’t some evil, power hungry schemer. Even after Dane confesses to injuring their own foot, I see comments saying “Why are they lying for Maximus??” “Wait, wut, who actually sabotaged Dane??” He’s just a nice kid trying to live up to what he thought were heroes! He’s not out to con the system or pull a coup!

Honestly as someone who had a bit of understanding about fallout and knew the vaults were experiments and stuff for vault tech. I was still blown away at some of the story. I had no idea vault tech facilitated the end of civilisation TWICE.

At the beginning I also had doubts about the show. Lucy was shown as "best at everything" in her interview. So I thought that she would be just an other Mary Sue. I was so happy to see her beat up by her "Hubby". At the moment that she flew into the kitchen I knew that this series will be good. Never in my life I would thought that I would write these words, by here we are. Fallout series has character arcs and character development. There are 3 main characters, all are interesting and none is overshadowing the other. This is how a good show is made. Glad you liked the series.

The mom reveal is so good. My second show for 2024, after Shogun.

[@kaojinn]

This show did a fantastic job of showing the game world that we love, without trying to tame it or censor it. It feels like modern writers have forgotten that the worse the situation, the greater the shock when its revealed or resolved. Well, these ones remembered that, and they did a great job. Just enough hand holding for those unfamiliar with the games to enter the world and tell a story they'd understand. But all the juicy details to feed the familiar with lore from the game world. The funny thing about Fallout is that the IP was originally spawned as a spinoff of the game Wasteland. The first couple of Fallout games came about from Interplay, which isnt around anymore. But the IP was bought by Bethesda. They put out Fallout 3, approaching it much in the same way they did their Elder Scrolls series of games, and absolutely knocked it outta the park. Fallout: New Vegas, which this series shares a fair deal of regional lore with (Involving the NCR specifically, and New Vegas at the end) was actually made by Obsidian! Bethesda went on to make Fallout 4 (Excellent with a great modding community), and Fallout 76 (its still got a mixed reception. It plays like a small scale MMO, and they decided to launch the game with a very limited smattering of NPCs). Obsidian went on to make The Outer Worlds, which doesnt get as much love as it should. Its more narratively driven, like Mass Effect, as opposed to open world like New Vegas was.

Small correction: Fallout was originally developed in 1997 by Interplay, a dev studio led by Tim Cain and Chris Jones. They also made Fallout 2. In 2007, Bethesda acquired the intellectual property and developed Fallout 3. Then, many of the original devs were brought back in (now called Obsidian) to develop Fallout: New Vegas, which Bethesda published. Then Bethesda developed Fallout 4 and Fallout 76.

In the FO4 game there are Scammers such as one guy who tries to sell you a "credit card". Another Scammer is a guy who pretends to be a well known person named Preston. But his scam is revealed when he asks for money (bottle caps). The real Preston never asks for money. There is also a child scammer who tries to sell you a tour of a certain place even though you can get it for free. There are probably more that I can't recall right now. I think one is in the Nuka world DLC. And FO3 might also have some scammers too. The only one I can recall is the one involving Ten Penny Tower.

[@AbA_DBAA23]

Another great series to react to from Jonathan Nolan is "Person of Interest." I loved that show! It ran for 5 seasons. It stars Michael Emerson (the guy whose head had the cold fusion injected into it).

[@gjits5307]

The New Vegas reveal at the end is the best kind of fanservice. FONV was plagued by a massive amount of bugs on release, and many still persist to this day. It was a little overshadowed by it's proximity to the release of FO3, which also contributed to the half-baked-ness. Even with all that, many consider it the best entry, narratively. And it ties in a whole lot to the events of the TV series, especially with regards to the New California Republic, the west coast Brotherhood of Steel, Robco, etc. There are drastically different endings to the game depending on player choice, and it will be interesting to see which one season 2 codifies as canon, and how.

The invincible card was genius

[@Ruytger]

Caught me totally off guard and laughed out loud. Such a good bit.

[@ODARuination]

The Omni man "think Mark" edit got me good lmao

[@rubenarias6538]

Cherry not sure if you realized but the brain robot is actually Bud Akinson thats why he calls all the people in cryo sleep his buds.

[@alistairgrey5089]

As someone who has played Fallout since before there were numbers in the title, the show did a great job of keeping the feel of the universe. There are a few things that some people didn't like but I thought it was really good. If you are planning on playing the games know that Fallout 1, 2, Tactics, and Brotherhood of Steel are all isometric turn based games. Fallout 3, New Vegas, 4, and 76 are first person rpgs. If you want to start at the beginning that would be amazing but remember that the original Fallout titles come from a time where tutorials were barely a thing, quest markers were basically brand new, and games never held your hand. That being said, if you do decide to play you'll have at least one person watching.

In Fall Out 3 the bomb in Megaton is a Vault Tech bomb. In 4 you start right before they drop.

[@VegetaLF7]

Nope, it isn't. The logo on the bomb looks similar, but it isn't the Vault-Tec one. Vault-Tec's logo is 3 parallel lines that run into a circle in the middle. The logo on the bomb only has two lines, missing the middle one. It is close, but it definitely is not Vault-Tec's logo.

I'm guessing maximus has like 10 to endurance and luck and 1 to intelligence and charisma.

[@webkeeper]

You got immersed so much that you forgot that Vault 33 is also an experiment. Maximus saying yes to the proposition to live in a vault is also a trap, just like Vault 4 before the regime change there. In Vault 33 there is no regime change yet. Then I was watching this scene I knew he would say yes, but I wasn't happy for him. 😅😅

[@reeferman42078]

Throwing in the title card for invincible was absolutely brilliant haha I'm laughing so hard

[@davidbergfors6820]

0:22 correct terminology would probably be "inspired by the game series", it's not based on any specific games storyline, but rather inspired by the lore and spirit of the franchise. 8:56 knowing about Shady Sands, this line is put in a whole new light.

[@j.f.fisher5318]

It's a really great show. Regarding whether they could have saved Lucy's mom with that serum, there's an intresting theory video "Is the Ghoul Being Scammed"

[@GaryBrownlee-do4pj]

Nice reaction Mary, lets hope season 2, will be as good as the first, the writing needs to stay consistent. 🥰❤️‍🔥

[@jollygoodfellow3957]

The Ghoul kills several knights in power armor easily in this episode, yet he had trouble with Maximus earlier. The best armor is plot armor.

[@vanyadolly]

14:48 Saaame! 😂 What's the point even if we don't have cats? Sometimes I think about life on other planets and how much it must suck without cats.

[@adamsingleton7771]

I love that you pronounced Big MT as “Big Empty” because that’s the same way people in-universe mis-say it. It’s not until you go there that you realize everyone is saying it wrong.

[@txfan100]

Hank went to new vegas, which another fallout game took place in. It's pretty insane and I'm super excited for season 2

[@mamayl8592]

The overall story arch and reveal in the final episode were very well done. And I really like the way McLean and Muldover(sp?) start as hero and villian, but in the final episode, they completely flipped. And the Ghoul also went from villian to understandable. Can't wait for Season 2!

[@namechamps]

Ghoul's becoming feral is a one way condition. That "ghoul juice" as you call it seems to stave off the effects by like Roger and Martha and the feral ghouls Lucy let out once they turn that is it. There is no coming back. So likely Lucy mother turned before Moldaver or anyone else could get her the meds. Maybe Moldaver just couldn't kill her old friend feral or not.

[@meewec2091]

there's videos that cover all the experiments of the various vaults if you're interested to find out how messed up they can get.

[@pyrofan80]

“He could kill the people in the pods and use that as leverage!” Glad I’m not the only one sociopathic enough to think that 😁

[@Guy_93]

The plot twist at the end was one of the best ive ever experienced

[@MuckJagger]

When people use baby doll arms and teeth as ammunition, I just wanna know where The Ghoul gets his supply of ammo. 🙂

[@jkoehler82]

The Rob-Co exec is a major cameo from Fallout New Vegas. He is one of the smartest, most well developed villains in the whole series. Because, the House always wins.

[@louiscypher9558]

The new vegas Easter egg at the end. Was chef's kiss for me . I've been a fan of fallout since like 98'

[@Chrius]

Titus did die running... he ran from the yao guai and hit his head on a rock

[@jokester3076]

They allow cats in some of the vaults

[@demontank76]

I mean..... Vaults 31, 32, & 33 are some of the nicest Vaults out there by a long shot 🤣

[@onurguen1184]

Maximus was born in Shady Sans, the New California Republic. So he is not over 200 years old.

[@Drax514]

So glad you watched this show Mary, it really kinda blew all us Fallout fans out of the water. I can't wait for this show to continue on with Season 2. I think they have a real hit here, I hope they manage it well.

[@89Timex]

I almost forgot how the season ended. Thanks for reacting Mary. 😊
