The second season of Fallout is only one episode in, but it looks like everyone is already loving it. Lucy and the Ghoul made their way to the popular New Vegas and the show has already revealed some characters and references from the game. In fact, it also contained some content that didn't make it into the final game.
Mr House is probably the biggest video game character to make it to the show and he played a big part in the first episode. While it looks like he's going to be a central character this season, actor Justin Theroux may have just revealed another character from New Vegas who could be appearing on the show, and he's one of the weirdest characters in the game.
This is for you Protectron Freaks
As spotted by PC Gamer, Theroux appeared on the Fallout Fake Talkshow, a bonus feature where a Snake Oil salesman interviews the cast and crew in a fun way. At one point during the interview, they played 'spin the bottle', but Theroux is saved from being kissed by the host because the bottle points to the Protectron sitting next to him. Unfortunately, the robot didn't seem thrilled as it made alarming noises.
At that point, Theroux asks, “How long has Fisto been working with you?” Fallout: New Vegas nerds may recall that Fisto was a very odd automaton from the game. In the mission “Wang Dang Atomic Tango”, you encounter Fisto, a reprogrammed automaton who acts as an escort and appeals to some people with robot fantasies. You can even fulfill your robotic fantasies with it.
The latest Fallout trailer has me really worried about Ghoulcy
The fans shipped Lucy and the Ghoul in the first season, but the second season can't do it.
Maybe Theroux is just a huge Fallout: New Vegas fan, or maybe he knew Fist's name because he appears at some point in the series. Let's hope it wasn't a scripted segment and Theroux accidentally revealed that the automaton would appear. Fisto would fit perfectly into the setting of the show, even if it was just a short scene.
