History Recap / Fallout2024S1E1TheEnd

* SelfSurgery: Lucy staples the knife wound in her gut shut after the battle with a staple gun that appeared to be in the medkit, so presumably that was its intended use.

* RewatchBonus: During the Wedding Feast, Lucy asks Monty about his sperm-count, which he reacts with StunnedSilence. At first, it appears that this is because he found the question to be incredibly awkward (which, to be fair, it is). But after learning later in the episode that Monty is actually a Raider in disguise, it's apparent his reaction becomes an "OhCrap" moment for him and shows how [[CoverIdentityAnomoly unprepared he was for pretending to be a Vault Dweller]], since that he cannot give an answer without blowing his cover.

* TemptingFate: After the Vault 32 guests (including Monty) have been outed as raiders, Monty [[SmugSnake smugly remarks]] to Lucy "This is the best day of my life!" He indeed [[WidowedAtTheWedding dies soon thereafter]]... but not before being gruesomely slashed across the face, beaten senseless with a shovel, and drowned in a pickle barrel.

** It's also ambiguous in this episode if he was the one responsible. Some of the things the Elder says imply they think he was, and ''that's'' why they gave him the job. His conversation with Dane also has some subtext that could imply that both of them ''know'' Maximus did it, but Dane forgives him and points the blame elsewhere.

* SadisticChoice: A classic one for Lucy's dad as he's openly told "Them or her," meaning Lucy or the surviving Vault 33 inhabitants. He chooses to lock Lucy into a storeroom and allow himself to be captured.

* IronicEcho: "You look just like your mother," spoken first by Lucy's father and then later by Moldaver. Especially ironic when it's later revealed that Moldaver was actually a friend of Lucy's mother and it was her dad who killed her.

* AbnormalAmmo: A Junk Jet is used to kill a man with a baby doll's leg.

* IronicEcho: "You look just like your mother." Especially ironic when it's later revealed that Moldaver was actually a friend of Lucy's mother and it was her dad who killed her.

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: The battle between the Vault 33 dwellers and the raiders. The latter have the element of surprise and more experience with violence, but the former are healthier, have the home-ground advantage, and (as Lucy's introduction revealed) haven't completely forgotten about combat skills. The Vault 33 dwellers end up repelling the raiders but with heavy losses on both sides.

* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: When Steph's fiancee dies in the attack, she turns into a ScreamingWarrior and goes on a revenge spree with an automatic rifle in her hand.

* NightmareFace: Downplayed. Aside from the missing nose and leathery texture, the Ghoul doesn't look nearly as bad as his game counterparts.
