How to "Escape the Institute" in "Banished from the Institute"?

[shogun459]

You may have to Kill Father.
Once you have the "Banished from the Institute" Quest, the sub-quest "Escape the Institute" is active.

Your Goal is to Escape, by using the "Emergency Relay" up at the top of the Institute where you first Teleported In at.
The trick is for you to have access to the Elevator after you are "Banished from the Institute".

For me I had a running fight from "Bioscience" then around the public center till everyone was dead.
At some point in this process the elevator opened and I could leave.
As I said at the beginning you may have to kill Father as his body was amongst the corpses when I finished.
Try killing him first and see if you can make it to the elevator without killing everyone, or not. LOL 8)

This was with a level 40 character with an average of 6 pts on each SPECIAL.

I thought he was considered essential up to the point that he's lying in his bed about to die from cancer, or by your hand, depending on what you chose? You don't need to kill them all to get out, you just need to find the exit, which is hard to do when you first get there because of the radial symmetry of the Institute, you get turned around easily.

This is part of the "Perfect Finish" where the Railroad, Brotherhood and Minutemen are all at peace in the end.
The closer you are to the Elevator the fewer you have to kill to escape.
I Didn't intend to Kill Father as I started my 'cleansing' in BioScience But once everyone was down, there he was. Along with most of the ruleing body. According to what the loudspeakers promised when I left, they are coming after me and mine now.

Attacks have increased.

Who speaks at you through the speakers if Father is dead?

Haven't gotten to that point yet,, all I know is I killed him, saw the body and as the teleporter warmed up, a man's voice said, "You've Killed Father. When we catch you you're dead!" , and I blinked away.
Must say my settlements have been under more pressure than the other 3 times I've gotten to this point, but without shooting my way out of the Institute.
So we will see and I will update this as I progress.

Spoiler Alert Father is NOT in the life support bed. You have to Hack His computer to issue the evacuation and stand down orders, not hard at all.

Also of note,
Glory isn't dead but she refuses to speak with you and the Railroad people refer to Glory as thought she were dead, from time to time. If you haven't done "Hole in the Wall" prior to destroying the institute you will Still be able to complete this mission line with the original "Caretaker" of a braindead Synth, Glory. This is, so far the only time she has spoken with me.
Maybe she wanted me to stop the Institute and keep the Synth production running for her people?
