And also, squelching continues.

I always enjoy a good close captioning of squelching, but that was quite accurate.

And then, a lumbering beast stomps in.

And just when you think that maybe the Deathclaws have come back, nope.

The ghoul is rescued slash abducted, not by Deathclaws, not by Thanos, though there is a resemblance, but by a super mutant played by none other than Hellboy himself,

We still hadn't seen Super Mutants, and we didn't have to wait long because here we have one, one of the good ones.

We did see a dead Super Mutant's hand briefly.

at the enclave base back in season one which tells you a little bit maybe about the history between the super mutants and the enclave but this is huge not only because the super mutants are a big piece of fallout lore but because perlman himself is also fallout legend narrated or voiced a character in virtually every fallout game the guy who has been telling us for decades

that war never changes.

That actor almost never changes.

It's Perlman.

more mutant life it's just such a iconic voice that you can just clock it immediately yeah he was on a podcast earlier this month and this was before we knew that he was going to be playing a part in the series but he was asked about his history with the franchise he said the whole fallout thing is a mystery to me they invited me to do the very first fallout back in the 90s i think they gave me 40 in a sandwich and a year and a half later i get a call hey you remember fallout no and

Well, there's a second one.
