Using Area 51 as a new base — there’s a very cool VFX scene where huge turbines emerge from the ground to blow away the mountain of sand covering the entrance, and a very funny bit where a pair of Brotherhood soldiers find an alien corpse that they quickly toss aside in favor of flipping out over the fully operational fridge it was housed in. This is Maximus’s answer to Lucy’s adherence (well, more or less — more on this later) to the Golden Rule of “Do unto others as you’d have them do unto you.” This is the reason she’s pursuing her dad: He breaks the Golden Rule all the time, on a horrific scale, and must be stopped. Finally, back down in the Vaults, Lucy’s brother Norm successfully convinces all the thawed out “Bud’s Buds” from the Vaul-Tec cryopods that this is all part of the wise Bud’s master plan, and that it’s some kind of test to see if they can escape the vault on their own, or something.
