"The water chip. . . "
*Oh shit, here we go again. .*
I wanted a Tim Cain cameo here
Nah, let's never mention it again. It'll be fine.
wonder who's going out for the waterchip, my guess is Chet , right after a few have failed already?
any then it was never mentioned again
Funnily enough it's not actually a big deal in a normal vault. Part of the story explained that they didn't have replacements in the game; the system here, where there are three interconnected vaults with redundant supplies, is actually much more resilient than even a "normal" vault.
In retrospect, teaching raiders introductory calculus is the greatest form of educational torture.
Can’t tell if this is an esoteric reference to the game, or if you’re just a pathetic sack of shit using clips of an Amazon prime show to be a racist cunt. If it’s the second one, you should game end yourself now; it’s over for you. Too 🐓 to say what you really believe. If this doesn’t apply, I apologize for my brain rot and have a good rest of your day.

Ya once my math problems started taking up half a sheet of paper I realized I no longer liked math
Ngl, Norm making it ambiguous to who he was addressing as ‘Overseer’ was smart to showcase how incompetent the two were
Also subtly undermining them with plausible deniability.
It was probably the peak of the writing in the show to me. So subtle, so smart. Really characterised Norm.
this show is way better than it deserves to be.
@@HYpr1337timeit either was gonna be amazing or dogshit
No middle ground
such good writing
Norm was the only normal one
HE SAID THE THING!
NORMal
You wouldn’t be normal either if you were raised in a vault from birth and fed capitalist/corporate propaganda, without any context whatsoever as to who’s *actually* pulling the strings and what’s going on in the world outside of their little isolated patch of real estate.
It’s frankly a remarkable demonstration of his intelligence and perception that he actually grew up “normal” and not brainwashed by retro-futuristic 50s style social communities setup by vault-tech.
If you were born there, you’d almost certainly be like that guy standing before the doorway when the raider takes a hit of jet just going “aww geeze” like a good little Morty at the sight of someone being violent/abusing drugs 😂
In terms of being the one to root for.
maybe because his dad was a non irridiated pre war human
This is how the subtitles should be displayed on amazon
I don't know if this is true or not, but from what I've read they originally were going to make the subtitles this way but thought it would be too jarring/distracting for viewers unfamiliar with the games' aesthetics.
@@kaiyamya9882 They could have made it another style. You can choose no subtitles, English, English CC, other languages... they could have made one called English FO. Yes, the colours would not work, but the messages could have appeared anyway.

"Steph loved that"
Steph gives me nazi mommy vibes.
Steph was kinda mirin Norm for being probably one of the only realistic people in the Vault and for calling out the incompetence.
Honestly I think Steph is the one who poisoned the radiers, not Betty.
💦
@@TheLichruler Steph is literally from vault 31, just like Betty. She is in cahoots with the other 31ers, she is exactly like Betty (and the show implies Steph killed the raiders)
@@Gorman_Vidal she's not exactly like Betty, she's way hotter than Betty.
i have only seen this one scene of norm and i like him already
I was surprised at his character too. I like it when media has a character who shows their strength through means other than physical might.
I really love it when characters actually have character ( :
Hes great, hes smart, observant and depressed.
starts off annoying. quickly becomes more interesting than the main character.
Norm has serious potential as a character and the actor is doing a great job.
"the water chip is fucked"
fuck it, send norm out then. Dude seemed like the most.. If not *only* competent person in that vault, so why not? he can become the next OP "vault dweller" character.
He has a broken build just built like a wet noodle..
I could see it honestly. He’s expendable now because of what he knows and by sending him out there they have a chance of getting the water chip or he dies. Either way win win for them.
@@FearlessGamer27 Well he has to get rescued first somehow
I can see bro V.A.T.S.ing raider’s heads with a LAER, finding Lucy, and telling her the brotherhood are actually shit sticks
Dude got like negative strength, endurance and agility tho.
Let's be honest we all got PTSD as soon as the water chip got mentioned
If it all comes back to it, lucy is gonna be a hero, but she will have to leave, and then maybe by the ink spots wil start to play.
"Steph loved that" the edit on this is on point I love it sm
And I somehow missed her reaction when I watched the show on Prime.
I feel like she and other from vault 31 would rather kill the raiders 😅@@angryox3102
Steph could get it honestly.
@@mchagnon7 Steph was thinking the same, she just didn't say it.
Norm is highly intelligent, and even *more* highly perceptive/deductive than anyone else in the show, except maybe for cooper, but he’s had over 200 years of life experience to develop that sense of intuition, whereas it seems to just come naturally to norm.
Even in their meeting regarding what to do about the incursion/ hostage situation regarding Hank the overseer, Norm is quick (and correct) to point out that nobody in charge really *wants* to find his father, because his absence has left a power vacuum that others “next in line” in the vault hierarchy are all to happy/quick to step into and fill with their own presence, whereas if he returned it would essentially be a “demotion” for the new overseer, and given what we come to learn about all of the overseers shared backgrounds, he is even more correct than he realizes, as their company was so cutthroat that they literally (spoilers)
Ended the entire fucking world just in a bid for more power/profit. Really hope he ends up getting out of vault 31 & becomes the new “leadership” in his home vault next season.
(despite his *immensely* sheltered/privileged life, having never left the vaults or known the “real” world, he was the *only* one to quickly realize what was playing out during the wedding scene/night, when even the (spoilers) pre-war, vault tech executives amongst the group who have *far* more knowledge of both the past and present, as well as communication with other vaults, all failed their perception checks as to see anything at all amiss about the situation until it’s far, far too late…
Beyond this, he has some slightly above average charisma/agility, not enough to lean on those traits, but when combined with his formidable intellect and perception, allow him to hide/evade both the raiders assault and fend off the increasingly suspicious vault dweller’s new “leadership”, (particularly Betty) long enough to unravel the real story that no one else who was born in that vault had ever discovered.
And obviously his greatest weaknesses are that he has very poor strength/endurance, and *passable* charisma (he’s able to play off a lot of his suspicious activity as just being awkward or overly inquisitive in a way that nearly everyone perceives as “harmless”, or at very least “in check” for the time being), but given the role he plays in the story, he doesn’t need those attributes whatsoever, intelligence and perception alone are enough to keep him alive through the first season.
I think he is by far the most likely candidate to become the new overseer of vault 33 if/when he escapes from bud & his bud’s 😂, both because his father was overseer/known and respected, and because at the end of the day, the logical deductions and observations he makes are all quite valid/reasonable, and would definitely have me listening closely if I were living in that vault where information is so stringently confined to the upper tiers of “management”
I dont think its confirmed that Vault-Tec actually started the Apocalypse , the scene only confirms that they had a plan in place in case noone else started it.
The ghouls ex-wife for example seems to have a high enough position in the company to make sure they dont drop that first bomb when her daughter is out with her ex-husband on a random party. Yet thats what they show in the beginning.
Also there is unfinished Vaults for example in Fallout4.
I mean despite that, it could still be that Vault-Tec started it all, but I dont think that scene where they said they would do it to insure a return on their investment actually confirms that they were the ones to do it in the end. I honestly think Bethesda will always leave it a mistery, also because in the end it doesnt really matter
@@Pyskiper yeah I agree that it ultimately doesn’t matter, I mean they clearly set the stage/stacked the deck as much in their favor as they could, but the nukes we see in the intro scene may be some form of retaliation from China or other world powers (who were initially nuked themselves, either by the government itself, or by vault tech as a “false flag” attack).
In either case, the U.S. government would undoubtedly be presumed responsible if many bombs originating from their military installations/silos were to be launched/detonated simultaneously on foreign/enemy soil
But at the end of the day the wasteland is the wasteland and “war never changes”, I think it was more of a tease for longtime fans who have been speculating for ages who started the Great War, and will probably continue to do so, as leaving it open-ended allows for more fans to have varying interpretations/their own personalized “head cannon” of what they make of all the pieces.
It’s also possible that cooper’s wife (who would be protected in a “good” vault given her high status) was just a downright cold bitch, and when told there was no room for family/children & pets are not allowed in the vaults, chose to keep silent and allow the inevitable to occur, knowing her daughter would be with cooper and would not survive the bombs.
It because Normbert playm video game :)
@@Pyskiper Honestly Vault-tec causing the apocalypse is not a very viable business strategy when you delete money and all options making and selling your business product.
@@jirdan4870 Sure, they delete money. But as Mr. House did in New Vegas, if you're in power after the world ends, you can control a new economy and have more power than ever possible before. Their intention is to start a new society with them leading their select survivors.
Wait time out, the “I can teach them Shakespeare” has to be a reference to the fallout 4 mission that gains the super mutant strong as a companion. I can’t rember the name of the mission but you go to a tower crawling with super mutants and free a man and a super mutant named strong from a cell and when you get them to safety and ask the man why he was there in the first place he says he thought he could civilize the mutants by teaching them the reading of shakesphere. The only reason I just caught this is I just played that mission.
Strong will find Milk of human kindness and gain the powers of Mackbeth!
The mission you’re referring to is called Curtain Call.
That was a fun mission honestly
That was the one thing i loved about the show. Was that you can tell when they were doing a Speech Check, and when it failed or succeeded.
Why don’t we all take a nice deep breath? :D
… You trying to fuck us?! >:(
I love Steph. She took a fork to the eye and didn't cry. She just picked up a SMG and returned fire.
Adrenaline is a hell of a chem.
@@fourscarlet7581 m e s c a l i n e
With a baby inside her too, hot damn
You'd be surprised at how little major injuries that happen fast hurt. I mean, they hurt quite a bit, but they're only like 1.5-2x as bad as fairly normal injuries. At least that was my experience in a car crash that broke my leg and covered me in bruises and cuts. The after effects of the surgery where they put my ankle back together hurt way worse, because they had to move each tendon out of the way one at a time and that shit stays with you.
You would also be surprised at how amazingly protective those rear-facing baby seats are. The other driver in the accident basically got turned into a sentient jelly, but her baby didn't even have a scratch.
Because she's one of buds buds. She was probably trained for the apocalypse by vault tec and she's psychotic like the rest of her cadre.
"The Water Chip is destroyed."
cue the wild wasteland sound effect
I forgot they mentioned the waterchip. This was the only time in the season it was brought up then it was never mentioned again like it’s not a huge problem
It will likely be a bigger problem in season 2
It has only been like, a week or 2.
I mean they did just occupy Vault 32 so they could've fixed it if there's a spare in it.
They all moved themselves Vault 32, leaving the rest (including Norm) to die.
They did mention it again
Norm is an amazing character with an amazing actor. Calls himself "chicken" but goes on to uncover EVERYTHING all on his own.
His humility is endearing to the audience, and the first step to getting better is admitting the fault, so it's a sad but sweet way he's developing his character.
@@MaximilianonMars Absolutely accurate and couldn't agree more. I really love the character. It's nice to see proper, deserved character development in a series again!
im chicken
Norm is a charisma-intelligence build? That makes sense actually.
Authority and intelligence build.
Perception-Intelligence more likely, but with Charisma and Agility as his secondary stats (agility because of his Small Frame perk)
his charisma is not that great, prefer int-perc
Norm has a different kind of bravery to Lucy. She’s very head on and get’s into physical danger while Norm questions authority and works to find answers to them when he’s lied to
casting did well with this one. the actor looks just like a fallout character creation screen
my favorite character in the show so far
Norm was awesome. He was definitely the smartest of them all vault dwellers.
The show is so perfect that you can literally make these kinds of things for almost any interaction and it would fit into the games
norm was giving me massive vault dweller vibes by the end of the season
The Commonwealth. (The theme at the end.) My favorite. Really soul touching.
Blonde pregnant eyepatch mommie is the only person I want approval from...
Norm is the best. Smart, sensible, and really cute.
Boy, Rico really grew up 😂
Gigabrain Norm
Norm was the smallest one there but had the biggest balls out of all of them
Norm was kinda the 4th protagonist loved his story
"can i teach them Minecraft" 💀💀
I’m living for these edits never stop
It’s crazy how these dialogues fit exactly into the show. It’s like playing the game.
"The water chip. . . "
no problem, i know some water merchants down at the hub....
There's enough water chips in Vault City.
I just completed the Gecko Vault City questline and I still can't get over the fact that All of this wouldn't have happened if Vault 13 got their package of a dozen water chips(yes really, they were meant to have several water chip replacements and there was a mix up with deliveries just before the war)
Norm is character I usually play in F1:
Gifted, Small frame, 5 str, 8 perc, 5 end, 2 chr, 9 int, 9 agi, 10 Luck,
Strength, endurance and somewhat agility is pretty weak in norm...
damn, fallout 1 is so generous in special points! if everything was spread equally, the character would even out at nearly 7 points in each attribute. that's hardly a balanced character, that's a do-it-all type
@@kikosawa Perks: Gifted+Skilled, so OP that it was removed from the system in sequels.
He is more like:
Str - 3, Per - 9, End - 3, Cha - 3, Int - 9, Agi - 5, Luck - 8. If not considering the traits
@@kikosawa thats the gifted trait, which is pretty op.
Norm was a sleeper hit character !
man this is some great editing
Everyone sees Norm and all I can see is Rico from Hannah Montana. But in all honesty, Norm is such a good character. Him digging for the truth and finding all this out was both cool and brave considering the BS going on around him.
Norm had a big nose because he is nosy. This show is genius.
He is an outstanding actor!
Description: "He really carried the B side of the show, great character."
I agree. When the show panned back to him, I was initially like, "wait.. wth is going on? Why are we back here". But, after watching this season all the way through, I'm really glad they made that decision.
It'd be kinda interesting to watch the entire show with edits like this lol
This is perfect
I would watch this entire series again like this!!
Brilliant edit! Really contextualizes the scene for me.
There were so many moments during the show that felt like perfect recreations of the dialogue and choices made during the game. Good stuff!
Norm had a great character development in this season, and I can’t wait to see him grow further in the next 👍
Lucy is a Charisma build. Norm is an Intelligence build. Chet is probably Endurance since he's raising another guy's kid.
Oh, you need a water chip?
I hear that they got a whole bunch of them in Vault 15.
Excellent work, man! Like the timing of the speech options, fits so well
The irony that Betty is playing the righteous one. Never trust people who show no signs of emotion.
Honestly, can we get a re-edit of the whole show with this level of detail 🤣 like, it both adds closed captions AND tbh as an autistic woman, the "X Loved That" felt like an incredibly important detail.
i don't get how that impacts the relevance in a significant way
The 24XP from the last intelligence check me me laugh 😂
Instead of Minecraft it should have been a holotape game. But this was good i want more of norm!
While I was watching the series with my friend we constantly said "Charisma check failed."
I mean, they were right to try and help the raiders. Jail should be used to teach not punish right?
It was this scene that made him my top three characters
It’s incredible to think about that this guy is 30 years, he looks so young! I bet his hair stylist and makup artist has something to so with it but even without he dont look older than 25.
Norm is the human version of the intelligence perk
This is great!
Norm has intelligence of 9/10 realistically speaking..
He found an Intelligence Bobblehead off screen.
Awesome! Loved that scene.
Granted, most of the people there have an average int stat of about 3
I love how adding fallout 4 dialogue UI makes this show truly fallout experience on screen.
The way this edit of the clip was done makes me think how pissed would people be if the next Fallout game handled the dialogue choices like a Telltale game with a timer.
The other dialogue options had me rolling 😂
"He really carried the B side of the show, great character."
...He carried the series period for me, I was more interested in his investigation than whatever was happening in the wasteland.
Very well edited!
Dude lol this is awesome
I love that people are getting into the older games now and I can fit in
after seeing the first dialogue window I immediately want to hear the evil version of this where he uses the roasts
Waterchip stops working! we have 2 months of water left!!
And that plot was completely ignored later XD
That’s because it wasn’t broken, not really it was just broken to cause a panic and make things glum because when things are glum you vote 31
All vaults besides the one in Fallout 1 are supposed to have multiple water chips. If one breaks, it is replaced.
@@sonniepronounceds-au-ni9287 Oh yea, and im supposed to know that, without looking it up in lorebooks, Wiki, or just have 200 IQ? It was not explained in the show. The plot was straight ignored.
@@shoc2177 Dude, it was the whole plot of Fallout 1; it wasn't exactly an obscure fact. I'm saying that it wasn't a major problem unless someone is purposely trying to sabotage the vault from the inside. He said it during the meeting in front of everyone when they were already riled up. It was never mentioned again because it was either just an easter egg reference for light drama, or it will eventually become a future conflict that they won't realize the full gravity of until later when the spares end up missing or damaged. They have 2 months to replace the chip. It's not at the top of their list at the moment.
It's only been a few weeks, you people have a really hard time understanding basic plot point and how seasonal show work
Also, can I just say how impressed I was to see the prop designers make a accurate water chip? Thing looks spot on!
1:32 probably in some other draft of the script for the show this was the moment where the overseer would’ve said “Norm Leave 🗿”
I need somebody to do this for the whole show
Should have went with the bootleg Drake diss!🤣🤣🤣
Clever video. The only change I'd make is to the first charisma check. His low charisma didn't convince them. He's an int/per/Luck build. Low str/cha/end.
love this bro.. pls keep editing.. also i have ideas what moment u can edit as a game if u need
Are you serious? Where's your head, have you been living in a whole for 200 years?
....
Oh.. Nevermind..
This was guud and I'd watch the entire show like this lmaooo
This is how I pretty much viewed any scene, throughout the show
Norm is our guy
This really looks like a scene from the game, especially the 'Steph loved that' part.
I definitely want a recap of past decisions based on what they do in future series where they in the past levelled up and picked the perk they used in the future. That could be very funny.
Damn, come to think of it, I wish the subtitles were just like that of in game. Though I can see how that wouldn't be reasonable with the Amazon video player without heavily modifying it...
I hope season 2 has a plotline where Norm is sent out in to the wasteland to find a replacement water chip
Honestly way better ratio than his sister who massively failed a speech check with the ghoul and a sneak check in that vault she visited
as soon as I saw him gain xp the story became secondary to me
could have added as a new mission text at the water chip part
"Oh sh1t, here we go again"
(find a new water chip)
I feel like there was some unintended allegory in this scene
this wild af i love it
Norm was my favorite character.
I honestly came in here, thinking my fav would be Cooper, but I finished the show with Norm as my fav ❤
Norm would be a Minecraft red stone pro tbh
1:09 It's not murder, Grandma. It's self defense.
