That poster you couldnt read is encouraging young girls to volunteer at there local hospital or nursing home. These types of volunteers where called "Candy Stripers" because they often wore white uniforms with bright read stripes making them look like a peppermint or candy cane.
55:45 *load up thomas jefferson personality into protectron* *dramatic pause* "THREEEEEEE DAAAAAWWGGG-" ffs mister jefferson how much wine did you drink sir
TattooGuru777 I turned it on, suddenly heard GNR and freaked out for a second. I actually tried to turn my radio off, thinking I’d left it on, and then has two copies of GNR playing at once. I had to shut my own radio off for real this time, and then I thought back to the terminal and realised it was Thomas Jefferson.
14:38 "Candy stripers" were volunteer nurses - the term candy striper is derived from the red-and-white striped pinafores that female volunteers traditionally wore in the United States, and are culturally reminiscent of candy canes. N.B. Remember, that's "stripers", _not_ "strippers." :-D
Fun Fact! in WWII the Magna Carta (as well as the crown jewels) was held in Ft. Knox to protect it from damage during the Blitz. Perhaps, in the world of Fallout, the same happened when the European Commonwealth broke apart and it was held in the National Archives. History is brilliant.
the Magna Carta yes and no not the same magna carta english people think of. There a few magna carta's i think one is in france and i know one is in Lincoln in England where it is kept with the charter of the forest, the crown jewels no, the jewels where replaced with fakes (later returned) and the crown and what not was put in a vault in the tower of london, the jewels where hidden in a biscuit tin inside windsor castle, the bizzare thing about the magna carta for me, is despite it being used to help english refugees fleeing to america, the English only care about it because there local town or pub is listed in it :') which is a bit bizzare because the magna carta in fort know is a more impactive document than all the logging of names and business's and towns and what rights they have indiviually. I think technically as well the magna carta is classed as unfinished, but only because it was an on going thing that came to an end because other things where happining but not sure on this part. i love looking at the place names, my mums home town is scunthorpe, its listes escumitorpe or something similar, but for all we know neither of us could be right, history is brilliant if not filled with plagurism, favouritism and what not

I got the holotape before I met her, so when she said “moonbeam” I immediately knew what she was talking about and I’m so glad there was a dialogue option to give it to her.
Was about to write the same. It's quite a good choice, probably one of, if not the last air vehicle that was widely used in the Fallout universe before the divergence.
What’s hilarious is that there is a repeatable glitch with Sydney. Just keep asking her about the gun, then ask her about her father, and then give her the tape. You can do that nonstop. It’s actually a really good way to get caps lol 😂.
@@justuslewis6797 her father’s final goodbye holotape. You can find it inside the massive hotel within the DC ruins. I think it’s the hotel where you rescue Riley’s rangers.
@@mariolisid say this is kinda true.MacCready however implies that it is still kind of a shithole but the super mutant threat is gone and the area has fresh water now. However when Maxson too over he annexed the whole wasteland and scrapped Megaton to help build the Prydewn. It’s unknown where the people who lived in Megaton went? Maybe joined the brotherhood, Talan company or went to Rivert city. A large force of the brotherhood were logistically able to leave the CW and travel to the commonwealth, they would have never been able to do this when we met them in Fo3. Though a shithole, the entire area is likely better than we left it at the end of 3 The main threat is Talon Company.
Someone else has probably already said this, but "Sydney" seems to be a pretty clear reference to the character of Sydney Fox who starred in a TV show named "Relic Hunter" which is exactly what the Sydney ingame calls herself.
This is my absolute favorite quest in any Fallout game. It's so much fun to raid the Archives, to interact with Abraham, not to mention all the loot. It is such a great quest, the feeling of getting this piece of history back from the depths.
It's like you mentioned in another Fallout 3 video, Sydney manages to be a better companion that nearly everyone else in the game. There's multiple interactions with her, a quest involving her and backstory about her. With the exceptions of Fawkes and maaaybe Butch she beats everyone out

This is a great quest. Detailed, historical, Sydney is a cool character and a nice temporary companion and if you don't mind a little exploiting, getting her smg as many times as you want can set you up with tons of ammo, a solid gun and a ton of caps if you wanna sell em. Another great video Ox. And over an hour long, thank you Sir.
i got to wonder if the john hancock protectron was destroyed by the gwinnet one since he seemed to have a dislike for him. also i feel like they could have made a companion out of sydney but i love the little detail that you can find an item for sydney to give her more story
I played the quest just 3 days ago. Kept Sidney alive (for the first time without reloads) and gave her the holotape. I'm proud to gave a new member to the community of Underworld. But i totaly missed the other things in the museum. At least i have to revisit it. As a non american person i was kind of buzzed about the right facts and the wrong facts in this quest and had to look them up. Kind of fun but not realy necessary but i maybe good to know, at least without american history Germany wouldn't be the same today. So excuse me sir, i have to take a trip to the museum of missed opportunities. Thank you Oxhorn, as allways you did one hell of a job and you did it damn right. 👍 O and a little "sidenote" who noticed the similaritys between Tia Carrere's character Sidney Fox in the series Relic Hunter and Sidney the relic hunter in FO3?
I find it funny he has the name of two different "well known' presidents. Also, I am impressed Oxhorn. A youtuber, a story teller, and a historian in a way. You surprise me by knowing what the Monroe Doctrine is.
I got mad mad that sydney kept dying (seventeen times, don't ask) so I just told her to stay at the rotunda entrance, equipped a stealth boy, and ran full sprint past all the robots and convinced him that I was Thomas Jefferson then went and picked her back up.
At one point when I visited the National Archives in Washington DC, the Magna Carta happened to be on loan from the British Museum. It's not unheard of for it to be in the National Archives...just one hell of a kwinkidink.
Hey, Ox. Really need your answer. When I did "Stealing Independence" quest, I didn't pass that Speech check and started Button's quest. I made a fake Declaration. Then.. I killed Button. Yes, that doesn't make any sense, but I just wanted to collect all possible rewards :) So, when I killed him, I had both Declarations - fake one and original one. Then I completed "Stealing Independence" quest by giving Abraham Washington the Declaration. But which one I gave him?! Both declarations were removed from me after completeng this quest.
bethesda really knows how to pull on your heartstrings, in skyrim there is a quest where you have to figure out what happened to a mans wife (she disappeared without any trace and he drowns his sorrows in the tavern) but at the end you discover that the couple had been struggling with money so she decided to go treasure hunting in a ruin (or cave can't remember) and died there and you can find a note on her body explaining everything and when you bring it to him he is seriously upset because this whole time he had thought she just up and left him. There is a quest in fallout 4 that also has a twist ending that ends up really sad and someone felling badly for their actions towards someone.
Awww dang it, I was hoping you'd mention the other relics that you could recover to give to Abraham Washington. Like for instance, there were some other things like Lincoln's rifle, and I think a few other relics of Lincoln's... It's been a while since I played Fallout 3 and my memory is fuzzy about what other relics you could retrieve, but I suppose it's not a part of the quest, but it would have been an interesting addon to the video. I don't remember if there were other quests though that could lead you inadvertently to Lincoln's rifle though.
Responding to your question about the Magna Carta -- Many copies were created at the time the Magna Carta was signed, and several have survived. One was indeed on display at the U.S. National Archives when last I visited.
Idk if you've heard this before or not, but your videos remind me a lot of the LGR. I say that with a lot of fondness as you both go extremely in-depth and share equally soothing voices.
The plane in the museum is a US P-51 Mustang, a WW2 era fighter that saw service in the European and Pacific theaters of WW2. It was well known for it's fuel capacity that allowed it to escort bombers from England to Berlin and Iwo Jima to Tokyo.
Going backward to try to finangle FO3 to work and play requires significantly more bandwidth than my brain has. I can't tell you how grateful I am for your videos. I also really appreciate your wise and kind analysis of various complicated subjects. Thanks for being a force for good in the world and for all you do.
Oh, my aching history buff-ness...I played this years ago, but I had forgotten so many details. I love the idea of combining robot guides with security and explody goodness, and absolutely no attempt at makeup beyond slapping on a wig. "Excuse me, Mr. Gwinnett, but are you aware your head is a giant thumb?"
Candy Stripers were nicknamed that way for the peppermint style red and white stripes on their uniforms, they were like..... not quite nurses but they helped patients quality of life, bringing them books, gifts, snacks and things
Hey Oxhorn. Maybe someone has mentioned this, and I guess I can't confirm this as a real easter egg, but I saw that the name on the protectron maintenance computer was P. Brantseg. Patrick Brantseg built most of the robot puppets for Mystery Science Theater 3000, and was the voice of Gypsy. I went to school with a relative of his, only reason I know that, ha.
i face palmed at the first bathroom part since im guessing that guy got fried from the bathroom fusion cell tank trap that is connected to those wires, we see similar traps in other bathrooms in the capital wastland
Halvos It's because Window 10 think it's too old for some reason. There should be a mod on Nexus that'll give you a mod that'll play it on Windows 10 and even give directions on how to install it right. Hope this helps!
*Maybe they could do something along the lines of Metro? I mean, They have characters speaking Russian as well as English but with an accent, Maybe they could do something like that? As for the lore of it, Something along the lines of you're a Chinese solider from pre-war and through-out your travels you've been taught English? Hmmm, Not sure to be honest!*
some crazy chineese pre war scientist (probably the guy who invented the stealth suit) invented a prototype universal translator. we have no lore on anything outside the us so it would not be lore breaking. there you go problem solved.
Actually fun tidbit, those particular flavors of mentats weren't addictive in Fallout 3, only vanilla mentats were. So makes a bit more sense here at least XD
Oxhorn can you please do a play through of the mod rust! It's really hard and like a new game its so intense no city or anything is alive I bet you could do it
I love these videos, they give me something to listen to and it is dictated so i dont have to stare at my screen, just listen. Love the way you narrate situations, thank you for making these videos, wish there were more
Prolly someone already told you, but the Robotics Expert Perk gives an additional dialogue option that allows you to run diagnostics on the protectron and shit it down, among other options i don't recall now, check the wiki page for details, pretty sure they'll be there.
Candy STRIPER. Its from a program that started in 1944 with Civilian Hospitals. Basically a Teenage Volunteer nursing program that originally wore Red and white stiped uniforms (or Blue blue teens for a simular program) by the 90s most candy stiper programs were closing or shut down for various reasons.
"P. Brantseg - Robotics Team" Patrick Brantseg was the art director on Mystery Science Theater 3000 - the show with the team of robots in the not-too-distant future...
The fact that they didn't call this quest National Treasure makes me kind of sad. The missed opportunity....
That would have been awesome
Would have been more awesome if they had Nicholas Cage voice the character that tags along instead of Sidney.
Cameron Sowash hey at least they have liam neeson as your dad lol

Candy stripers still exist. You may even get the candy stripe vest (but it's not a cute pinafore).

The plane in the museum is a US P-51 Mustang, a WW2 era fighter that saw service in the European and Pacific theaters of WW2. It was well known for it's fuel capacity that allowed it to escort bombers from England to Berlin and Iwo Jima to Tokyo.
"Stealing Independence"? Dammit where's Nick Cage when ya need him?!
Going backward to try to finangle FO3 to work and play requires significantly more bandwidth than my brain has. I can't tell you how grateful I am for your videos. I also really appreciate your wise and kind analysis of various complicated subjects. Thanks for being a force for good in the world and for all you do.
It's Sydney Fox from Relic Hunter! (loved that Show!)
She even looks a little bit like Tia Carrere. :-)
Oh, my aching history buff-ness...I played this years ago, but I had forgotten so many details. I love the idea of combining robot guides with security and explody goodness, and absolutely no attempt at makeup beyond slapping on a wig. "Excuse me, Mr. Gwinnett, but are you aware your head is a giant thumb?"
His voice... is that guy... um so and so outpost with the dwemer puzzle cube skyrim
Yeah they tend to hire the same V.A for each game, infact there still few from morrowind are still listed.
Candy Stripers were nicknamed that way for the peppermint style red and white stripes on their uniforms, they were like..... not quite nurses but they helped patients quality of life, bringing them books, gifts, snacks and things
I wanna know what happened to rivit city nowww😭
A Fan Theory about Elder Maxson stealing the fusion reactor of Rivet City to use on the Prydwen.
Gipsy Danger862 Nothing happened just a theory.
Gipsy Danger862
Just open a saved game. Fast travel to rivit city, still there...
In fallout 4 not 3.
Hey Oxhorn. Maybe someone has mentioned this, and I guess I can't confirm this as a real easter egg, but I saw that the name on the protectron maintenance computer was P. Brantseg. Patrick Brantseg built most of the robot puppets for Mystery Science Theater 3000, and was the voice of Gypsy. I went to school with a relative of his, only reason I know that, ha.
See the vid is one hour long im happy
i face palmed at the first bathroom part since im guessing that guy got fried from the bathroom fusion cell tank trap that is connected to those wires, we see similar traps in other bathrooms in the capital wastland
What's up with Sydney and her perpetual smirk? She's not The King.
I like how Ox ignored pronanly the biggest relic of them all, the giant propeller plane that inexplicably the old man somehow found.
I can't play Fallout 3 on my PC anymore, something about Windows 10, any one know any mods that might help?
Halvos It's because Window 10 think it's too old for some reason. There should be a mod on Nexus that'll give you a mod that'll play it on Windows 10 and even give directions on how to install it right. Hope this helps!
Just install the Tale Of Two Wastelands Mod if you have Fallout: New Vegas
Halvos Try running in compatibility mode
Halvos I'm on Windows 10 and it works fine, weird
dude there is video that shows how fix that
I'd love to see something more in depth on the Xuan Long assault rifle. That was such a weird quest to get that gun with a weird story.
*I'd love to see a FO game set in China! Learning about how they dealt with everything and their stories :O*
Realityz I thought the same but what about the language barrier?
*Maybe they could do something along the lines of Metro? I mean, They have characters speaking Russian as well as English but with an accent, Maybe they could do something like that? As for the lore of it, Something along the lines of you're a Chinese solider from pre-war and through-out your travels you've been taught English? Hmmm, Not sure to be honest!*
some crazy chineese pre war scientist (probably the guy who invented the stealth suit) invented a prototype universal translator.
we have no lore on anything outside the us so it would not be lore breaking.
there you go problem solved.
*Genius!*
Sounds cool
Jefferson being an ancestor of mine, this quest always gets me, i could never bring myself to ever take the real one. always made the fake copy.
I love his vids I subbed to you not that long ago
Lora Elstad thx
It's also full of perfect perfect spots for mirelurk dens (and ass medicine)
Actually fun tidbit, those particular flavors of mentats weren't addictive in Fallout 3, only vanilla mentats were. So makes a bit more sense here at least XD
Oxhorn can you please do a play through of the mod rust! It's really hard and like a new game its so intense no city or anything is alive I bet you could do it
Funny, out of all the great things in this video, the "Moonbeam" was the best!
Death Metal spewing protectron sounds awesome.
Nice profile picture.
“BRUVA I AM PINNED HERE!”
I know, right!?
I love these videos, they give me something to listen to and it is dictated so i dont have to stare at my screen, just listen. Love the way you narrate situations, thank you for making these videos, wish there were more
*Insert National Treasure joke here*
Prolly someone already told you, but the Robotics Expert Perk gives an additional dialogue option that allows you to run diagnostics on the protectron and shit it down, among other options i don't recall now, check the wiki page for details, pretty sure they'll be there.
#OxhornforLife
Candy STRIPER. Its from a program that started in 1944 with Civilian Hospitals. Basically a Teenage Volunteer nursing program that originally wore Red and white stiped uniforms (or Blue blue teens for a simular program) by the 90s most candy stiper programs were closing or shut down for various reasons.
SOME ONE GET NICKILS CAGE
I LOVE Potatos release the Nicolas Cage (it's a joke on release the Kraken)
Thank you for making hour long episodes which keep me company when I stay up at night doing homework. :)
Oxhorn is litty
Watching in 360
The wasteland is my city
Gamer Slayer keep trying buddy.
It's funny i did not take the time to examine all the stuff you do Oxhorn while i was playing myself, but i do on your channel. Much love, don't stop.
The plane looks like a p-51
Xander Shouldn't everyone know this that is old enough to play Fallout?
I was correcting oxhorn because he didn't seem to know what type of plane it was. And to answer your question, no.
+Drew - Washurmouthinton Aviation history isn't exactly something covered in schools, y'know. It's a bit of a niche subject.
Not a plane expert, but yeah, looks like a Mustang.
"P. Brantseg - Robotics Team"
Patrick Brantseg was the art director on Mystery Science Theater 3000 - the show with the team of robots in the not-too-distant future...
