Hi

I need a help with this side-quest. I played it fist time so I got a problem. Or kinda poblem. I lied Mortimer, said Im cannibal too. Then I lied Philip and closed him in refregirator. And finally I brought Ted back to his father. So father wanted to punish entire Strip. I said it is bad idea so everyone will become cannibal then. So quest was over. BUT Mortimer is still not punished for his crimes! What shall I do???

I'm not sure IF you can still do this after the game told you the quest is over... it reads like you accidentally picked the route that made the White Gloves go back to their cannibalistic roots.

You need to get to the part where Mortimer is making his speech to the society, let him finish it and then confront him (at least if you want to punish him). I did so by cooking the fake recipe and then bringing Ted along. Might be other ways to solve it though.

PS It does not matter if you tell Mortimer that you're a cannibal. The lie just serves to get him to give you access to certain parts of the society.

Hmmm But I said Yes-man there was cannibalism problem and I get rid of it. S?..

Not entirely sure, but I suspect that the game counts killing the chef and rescuing Ted and getting him back to his father as boycotting the dinner as well?

Maybe you can still try and sneak in on the dinner party and see what happens in there.

I havent killed anyone. I just had good speech skills. First I took a queest and then have spoken with that woman who are in charge there (forgot her name), then I spoke with Mortimer. He told about some private investigator and send me to his room. But I havent went there and spoke with him again. So I lied that Im an cannibal as well (with my speech skiil). He told me they got Ted. Then there was options to help him or lie to him again. So I lied again and he gave me all keys. Then I went to basement, there was some guard, he asked me what Im doing there - I lied to him and said that I need to take Ted to another place, it's an Mortimer's order. So I went to kitchen and spoke with Philip. I lied him that there is radrouch in his refregirator room. He went there and I closed him there with help of terminal on the wall. After I opened door with Ted and brought him to his father. The end.

Seems like you picked the first route simply by returning Ted to his father.

Maybe you can still go back in and sneak up on Mortimers speech at the dinner just for fun.

Hm.. If it will be possible but it seems I cant change anything anyway... But Ted is rescued. There should be an option to punish Mortimer, for example, to speak with that women and tell her about it and so on. LoL I killed Mr. House and I cant just go to some of my robots and tell him that there is some cannibal in the casino. He must be captured, escort away from New Vegas and shot there in the face with laser gun. It would be great opportunity to see new abilities of my securotrons. As I killed Benny in that lux room and took platinium chip from his dead body, securotrons became powerful and they are in my command but.. Wel...

So when you go back in, Mortimer is still the receptionist then?
