“Fallout Show” is hiding a terrifying Easter egg in plain sight

Amazon’s Stand out The show is miraculously pretty funny and awesome. It manages to capture the satire of the games and somehow make them even sharper by cutting out a lot of their fat. For this reason, the elements that the series borrows from the games seem to be given even more room to stand out, and this is particularly true in the plot centered around the horrors of the Vaults. An Easter egg inside Stand outIn the sixth episode of Thriller, these horrors are underscored in ways that are both disturbing and hilarious.

Spoilers for them Stand out Show and background information about the games follow.

Although Stand out makes a point of immediately highlighting the menacing nature of the Vaults, but it takes some time for the show to take full effect. Meanwhile, two storylines are presented – one following Norm (Moises Arias) in Vault 33 and one following Walton Goggins’ character Cooper Howard before the bombs fall – working from opposite ends of the timeline towards the same goal: uncovering what’s sinister things going on in the vaults. To this end, Stand out apparently hides one of the biggest clues to the true nature of Vault-Tec.

At the beginning of Stand outIn the sixth episode, Howard films a commercial for Vault-Tec praising the Vaults and their capability Enshrine and protect core American values. As the display comes to an end, a phone number flashes on the screen. The number is 213-25-VAULT and it stays on the screen for a strangely long time for such a small detail. With that in mind, I paused the broadcast, grabbed my phone, and dialed the number that translates to 213-258-2858. I nervously pressed the phone to my ear, expecting the sound of someone tapping on someone’s voicemail.

Then a man screamed in my ear for several seconds and the call was cut off.

People familiar with the series probably know that nothing good comes from knowing what’s actually happening in the various vaults across America, but letting people experience it Stand out For the first time in the series, we experience a journey through the eight-episode season. For newcomers, the show slowly builds up the horror of what Vault-Tec has been doing all along, and although the show’s finale explicitly addresses it, this phone message – if you can even call it that – is a perfectly succinct summary of it entire offering that viewers can access earlier.

The show ultimately describes what many fans get out of it Stand out Games already know: Vault-Tec used the populations of their vaults as lab rats to direct Product and social experiments. The blood-curdling scream on the other end of the line is that of a vault resident who meets his fate at the hands of Vault-Tec’s inhuman machinations. It’s one of the earliest confirmations to new fans that Vault-Tec doesn’t just do that appear shady, it’s literally guilty of crimes against humanity.

If this plot is of interest to you and you want more, start doing it into the games, which allows you to discover a series of vaults across the country and find out what bizarre experiments have taken place there. Since I finished the show, I’ve been looking for every part of the series I can find, and I know it Not the only one. I checked again Fallout: New Vegas for the first time since its release and even bought a collection of the first titles for less than three dollars on Steam over the weekend. I have one too “Game sized mod”that was delayed due to Fallout 4is imminent Next generation update. If you want to go one step further, Fallout shelter actually allows you to become a Vault Overseer, like Kyle MacLachlan’s character in the series, and you can run your own Series of crappy experiments. The point is, the wasteland is your irradiated oyster, people.
