Ultra-lux quest

Post » Wed Mar 03, 2010 9:12 am

I'm doing the ultra-lux quest where you have to find the brahmin baron's son. I've found him and I want to do the way where you parade him in front of the white gloves after Mortimer gives his little speech but when I enter the banquet hall all the white gloves go ape-s*** and attack me. I also can't get Mortimer to give his speech without gettin the son to follow me so what am I supposed to do?

You're not a White Glove, so you're not allowed in the Banquet Hall. You'll have to stay well hidden, probably with a stealth boy, to be able to see the meal.

This is how I did it:

Spoiler
I wasn't a White Glove when I did this, myself.

Don't know if this matters or not, but I wore some White Glove armor. I forgot who I got it off of. IIRC, I was jumped by some White Glove dudes, so I took the armor off them. Anyway, put on the White Glove garb and go past the two guys with the flamethrowers. If you don't attack them, they won't do anything to you. (If you don't have the White Glove armor already, go ahead and kill these guys and get it from them.) Going forward, you'll run into a White Glove who asks you what you're doing. Pass a speech or repair check to get past him. Find Phillipe. There's a certain speech path (don't know any other way to describe it) to get him to go into the pantry. Kill him there. Get his recipes off his dead body. Close the pantry door. Cook the fake human meat. Use the intercom to get the waiter to come get the food. Hide somewhere and watch him come and take the food. Wait a minute or two and let him walk out of the room and into the Members Only Area. Go get Ted Gunderson. Again, not sure if it matters, but I used the speech path where I said Mortimer was the one to blame, not the entire White Glove. Now, with Ted following you, go to the Member's Only Area. If everything went right, all the ticks on your radar should be green. No red ticks indicating enemies. Hide and let Mortimer finish his entire speech. If you confront him too early, it screws things up.

That's it! Good luck. :)

As far as dealing with Philippe, there are a few different speech methods you can use depending on your skills. If you don't meet any of the requirements, you'll have to just whack him.

If this happens, make sure you drag the body (Z on PC, don't know on console) to a spot where the head waiter won't find it when you call him down. If he sees it, he'll attack, and then there won't be anyone to deliver the meal. (For good measure, hide with the body while the waiter does his thing.)

Where is Phillipe usually? I've been trying to find him for ages to talk to him :/

He's in the kitchen, getting the meal ready.

I still can't find Phillipe. Must be some kind of bug I'm thinking, because this is the second time it's happened to me (2 different characters). My brother found Phillipe first time 'round so...*le sigh* I'll just have to finish the quest as best I can.
