8. Curtain Call
Curtain Call's likely to be one of the very first side missions you pick up on your merry jaunt across post-apocalyptic America, but don't expect it to be an easy one to complete. As soon as you enter the city of Boston proper, you'll pick up a distress signal emanating from the cloud-scraping Trinity Tower. Being the good Samaritan that you are, your first instinct will be to investigate, but you're going to want some power armour for the extra defence before you even attempt to scale it. The whole building is infested with Super Mutants, and perched at the very top in a jail cell is one Rex Goodman - a man who foolishly thought he could reason with the yellow/green monsters and strike up a friendship. Forget about that deluded fool, though. The real prize for fighting your way to the top is Strong, a non-hostile Super Mutant who's searching for the 'Milk Of Human Kindness'. Strike up a conversation with the brute and he'll become a companion, believing you can help him find said milk. Someone clearly doesn't know what a metaphor is.
