(Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Jump to:Episode 1Episode 2Episode 3Episode 4Episode 5Episode 6Episode 7Episode 8 Jump to:Episode 1Episode 2Episode 3Episode 4Episode 5Episode 6Episode 7Episode 8 The Fallout TV show is here and it is loaded with Easter eggs and references to all the games. Which isn’t all that surprising as we know thatthe Fallout TV show is canon, according Todd Howard. There’s eight episodes full of clear call outs, knowing winks and more to all the games so far, so join me as I work my way through every episode, and point it all out. Episode 1 Grognak, Nuka-Cola, and Sugar Bombs on the TV (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Thumbs up (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Prepare for the Future! (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) You’re S.P.E.C.I.A.L. (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Atomic Command (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Lucy’s brother, Norman, can briefly be seen playing Atomic Command on his Pip-Boy, a playable mini-game that appeared in Fallout 4. Vault-Tec bobbleheads everywhere (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) We first see a Vault-Tec bobblehead in the opening moments of Vault 33, but these little guys pop up everywhere in multiple episodes. Fitting for an ongoing collectible in every Fallout game bar New Vegas (they’re mentioned in files but never appear). Sign up for the Total Film Newsletter Bringing all the latest movie news, features, and reviews to your inbox Stimpacks in the bathroom (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Everyone knows that if you need healing in any of the Fallout games you check the bathrooms first. So obviously, when Lucy is injured in the Raider attack, she heads straight to the bathroom to grab the medical supplies she needs off the wall. The Raiders are huffing Jet (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Jet is a highly addictive drug in the Fallout games, a chem that boosts your strength and combat abilities. In Fallout 3 it give you more action points to fight with, while in Fallout 4 it slows time. Fun fact: it’s made from cow shit. The Pip-Boys are game accurate (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) The Brotherhood of Steel Airship (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) The airship that appears in the TV show is a dead ringer for the Prydwen, the massive mobile base of the Brotherhood of Steel in Fallout 4. The Prydwen was the name of King Arthur’s ship in a Welsh poem called Preiddeu Annwfn, and in the TV show it’s called the ‘Caswennan’ which is an alternate name for the same ship. Or the coastal sandbank that wrecked it, depending on the source. They nuked the fridge (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) There’s a Junk Jet (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) When the three bounty hunters dig up Walton Goggins' Ghoul character, one of them is carrying a Junk Jet, a Saturday Night Special of a weapon that, as the name suggests, fires any random junk you can load into it as bullets. In the show we see it kill people with doll legs, scissors, a surgical saw, and so on. A similar weapon appears in Fallout 3 under the name Rock-It Launcher. Episode 2 It’s Dogmeat! (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Although no one says the name until later, the puppy that Enclave scientist Dr. Siggi Wilzig rescues is Dogmeat, a beloved companion in Fallout 4. Don’t worry, he doesn’t die. Is that a super mutant? (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) It’s a blink and you’ll miss it moment but when a body on a gurney goes past Wilzig, the giant green hand sure looks like it belongs to a super mutant. While we don’t see much more it would tie into the Enclave’s work with the FEV or Forced Evolutionary Virus that created them, and the organisations attempts to make a ‘cure’ that would kill all mutants. Although the fingers moving here suggests this one is very much still alive. Automated Turrets (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) When Wilzig is escaping the Enclave lab we see a classic Fallout Automated Turret. This design is almost identical to the Fallout 4 and 76 version, with only the warning screen as a variation. Assaultrons are out there somewhere (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) That’s a Yao guai (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) The creature that attacks Knight Titus is a Yao Guai, a mutated American black bear that’s been a common enemy in Fallout since Fallout 3. According to a quote in Fallout 4 the name came from Chinese prisoners and means monster or demon. Iguana-on-a-stick (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) This less than appetising snack is a staple of the Fallout series, and has appeared in every game in some form or another as a handy health boosting treat. (Not) Megaton (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) The town that Lucy visits in the show isn’t Fallout 3’s Megaton because Vault 33 is in LA, along the way from Megaton’s Capital Wasteland location. However, the prominent airplane nose is a clear call out to the classic settlement. There’s also a RobCo shipping crate in the background, although the robotics company appears more definitively later on. Brahmin (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Like iguana-on-a-stick, Fallout’s two headed Brahmin cow has appeared in every game in one way or any other. They’re harmless and generally kept in settlements for food, milk, and leather. Pip-Boys for everyone (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) When Lucy visits Ma’s Sundries there a range of Pip-Boys in the window. The only one we get a clear look at is this one, a Pip-Boy 2000 Mark VI from Fallout 76. Another one we get a less clear look at appears to be a Pip-Boy 3000 mark IV from Fallout 4 (you can see that in the image below). There are others hanging in the window but we never really get a good enough look to identify them. The classic Fallout lunchbox (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Lying open on a counter when Lucy is inside Ma’s Sundries is what looks like the classic Vault-Tec lunchbox. These have appeared in several games as everything from a crafting item to a loot box. Unfortunately it’s open so we can’t see what the design is on the lid. The first cat in space! (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) During the Ghoul’s attack in episode 2 you can briefly see a Mr Pebbles poster on the left, the ‘first cat in space’ appears in both Fallout 4 and 76. There’s also a ‘Mister Handy trusts Abraxo’ poster which first appeared as a loading screen in Fallout 3 before making it’s way into later games. Mini nuke and Vault-Tec party hat (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) When the Ghoul goes in Ma’s Sundries you can see a mini nuke and a Vault tech party hat in a display case on the left. Both have appeared in every Bethesda Fallout game in some form. Terrifyingly the nuke is based on a real weapon: the Davy Crockett short-range nuclear launch device which fired a W54 tactical nuclear warhead the size of a football. Episode 3 The finger mouth Gulper (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) YumYum Deviled Eggs (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) YumYum brand Deviled Eggs are a health boosting food item that’s appeared in all the Fallout games since Fallout 3. “The water chip’s been destroyed” (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) When we find out that the water purification chip has been destroyed in Vault 33 it’s a direct reference to the main mission of theoriginal1997 game. In the first installment that started it all you play as a Vault Dweller sent out into the wasteland to find a replacement water purification chip after yours breaks. The birth of the thumbs up and the Vault Tec colors (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) When Cooper/The Ghoul first sees his Vault-Tec suit for the advert he’s about to make he’s told ‘they even made it in your colors’ referring to his blue and yellow on-screen cowboy character. Later, while doing the promotional photoshoot, he decides to ‘try’ a thumbs up and the rest is history. Episode 4 It’s an evil Mister Handy (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Mr. Handy is a common robot throughout the Fallout series. It was originally designed as a helper but, post war, many have malfunctioned, been reprogramed for evil, or just generally lost the plot. In this case this is Snip-Snip, a medical Mr. Handy currently performing organ harvesting for bandits. And yes, it it Matt Berry providing the voice. S.P.E.C.I.A.L. to you (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) While Lucy’s earlier introduction is clearly a play on the idea of Fallout’s SPECIAL skill system, here we see a direct reference using the ‘pick a job that’s SPECIAL to you’ poster from Fallout 76. Abraxo cleaner (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) When Lucy makes her escape from the organ harvesting trap she uses Abraxo cleaner. This has been a mainstay of the series since Fallout 3 as a crafting resource and sellable item. The classic 10mm (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) When Lucy is forced to defend herself from a feral Ghoul she grabs the nearest weapon to hand, a 10mm pistol. It’s a classic handgun that’s appeared in every game to date, usually as one of the first weapons you get. This appears to be modeled on the Fallout 4 version. Super-Duper Mart (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) The organ harvesting operation is run out of a Super-Duper Mart, an old convenience store that appears in Fallouts 3, 4, and 76. This one in particular looks a lot like it’s referencing the Fallout 3 version, which also has a large parking lot in front of it. Leather armor (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) When Lucy leaves the Super-Duper Mart she’s wearing some classic leather armor. that shoulder pad is often on of the first things you get to improve your gear in the game and the Lone Survivor Vault dweller of Fallout 4 is often pictured wearing something similar. The Radiation King TV (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) We don’t get a good look at it until the Ghoul enters the Super-Duper Mart but the TV set is a Radiation King which has appeared in all the Fallout games bar number 2. The brand name is actually a Simpsons' reference to Homer Simpson’s childhood TV set which first appears in an episode called Grampa vs. Sexual Inadequacy. It was included in the first game as an in-joke and stuck around. Episode 5 A Fusion Core (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Radroaches revealing their true colors (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Radaway (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Anyone who’s ever played a Fallout game will have done so with pockets full of Radaway. It magically heals all radiation damage, so when Lucy gets ill from drinking irradiated water earlier this is the obvious choice to fix her up again. Fiends (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) The brief fight Maximus and Lucy have on the bridge is with two fiends. They’re a chem addicted raider sub-faction - hence the hollow eyes here, who appear in Fallout: New Vegas. They hate basically everyone and, in-game, attack anyone they meet on sight. Shady Sands (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Shady Sands is a critical part of the TV show as the episodes move on andwasthe capital of the New California Republic. In Fallout 1 and 2 it was the largest known settlement built post-war and a notable location, so it being utterly destroyed in the show isn’t an insignificant beat in Fallout history. Episode 6 The original Codsworth (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Episode 7 NCR Ranger combat armor (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Red Rocket (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) The next time we see Thaddeus he’s approaching a Red Rocket. This is a fairly iconic location from Fallout 4 used in a lot of marketing, as well as a key location you encounter early on. In the lore of Fallout it’s basically a gas station for atomic cars. Tesla Magazine #7 (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) While we say some magazines in Ma’s Sundried in episode 2 you could really get a good look at them. Here though we can clearly see Cooper is reading Tesla Magazine #7 from Fallout 4. In the game world, finding and reading these gives you a boost to your energy weapon damage. It’s the actual hacking puzzle from the game (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) When Norman is hacking the Overseer’s computer he uses the actual hacking challenge you’d use in the game. To do it you select a word and it tells you how many letters are right compared to the password - it just a case of picking words, noting the letters and trying to find them all before you run out of guesses. Another 10mm pistol (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) We’ve already seen the 10mm pistol that Lucy grabs in the Super-Duper Mart but Thaddeus has another variation. Specifically the Colt 6520 pistol that appears in Fallout 1 and 2. Episode 8 The long barrel assault rifle (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) A sort of Robobrain (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Fallout has a long history of brain-in-jar robots appearing every game. Usually they’re larger, trundling around on treads with pip-like arms but this tiny little guy sort of counts. The real Vault-Tech (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) There’s a lot going on in this Vault-Tech meeting. Firstly, the map of the US and the lighting over the table frames a mushroom cloud as a portent of what’s to come. Then there’s the people in attendance, all of home are big Fallout entries: West Tek is the military defense contractor behind power armor (among other things). Big MT is a research centre that appears in New Vegas. RobCo is the robotic and software in all the games. While, finally REPCON is the Rocket Engineering and Production Company of Nevada. More importantly when this group are throwing around ideas for vault experiments they’re all from the game. Mr House (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) The founder of RobCo, or Rob-Co in the TV show, is Mr House who ends up being the ruler of New Vegas in the game Fallout New Vegas - something that seems quite relevant given the tease right at the end of the final episode, Although he’ll could well be dead at this point in the time line depending on what ending is considered cannon for the game. In the game he survives the apocalypse as a withered, cybernetically husk in a stasis chamber, running New Vegas through a computer connection. Toe original Fallout release date (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) When Hank finally enters the code for the cold fusion tech it’s actually the release date of the very first Fallout game - October 10, 1997. (Thanks again to Chris for pointing that out.) The NCR flag (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Hanging proudly next to Moldaver’s fusion machine is the New California Republic flag, with it’s two headed bear mascot. This government like faction tried to run things in a similar way to pre-war powers with a congress and so on. It’s not clear whether it still actually has any power in the TV show as it was last seen in Fallout: New Vegas which is set 15 year earlier. The laser pistol (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) When Moldaver appears in the final fight she’s weidling a AER9 laser pistol from Fallout 4. Laser pistols appear in all the games and are oddly absent in the show considering. DEATHCLAWWWWWWW (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) New Vegas (Image credit: Amazon/Bethesda) Pretty much the final shot of the show is an interesting one: the New Vegas Skyline. The Lucky 38 Resort and Casino is the big tower and those prongs at the top are unmistakable. While the show takes place 15 years after the events of the New Vegas game, it’ll be interesting to head there in season 2. Fallout, starring Ella Purnell, Aaron Moten, Walton Goggins, and Kyle MacLachlan, is now streaming on Prime Video.
