Ring-a-Ding-Ding!

It is time to stand face to face with Benny - Ring-a-Ding-Ding! - Initial quests - Fallout: New Vegas - Game Guide and Walkthrough

It is time to stand face to face with Benny. Go to New Vegas Strip but before you can go inside, you'll be stopped by Securitron [Freeside] (M6:1). You have to undergo a procedure or show him a passport. You got several ways to deal with it:

  • 2000 caps (you need only to show them);
  • [Science 80] hack a robot to gain access;
  • complete [G.I. Blues] and you can get a passport for free as a favor;
  • go to the shop [Mick & Ralph's] (M6B:2) and buy a fake passport.

After you step into [New Vegas Strip] (M7) you'll be welcomed by Victor, who will invite you on behalf of Mr. House to his apartment in [Lucky 38] (M7:1).

A quest is unlocked: [The House Always Wins, I].

In order to obtain the Platinum Chip you need to go to the [The Tops Casino] (M7:3), where you can find Benny. There are few options you can choose. After entering the Casino, you have to give away your weapons (or hide some as an option - the higher sneaking level you have, the better weapon you can keep) but you will get it back when leaving.

Start [The House Always Wins, I] and Mr. House will tell you how to get to Benny.

Option 1

Talk to Benny (M7A:1) - Ring-a-Ding-Ding! - Initial quests - Fallout: New Vegas - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Talk to Benny (M7A:1). He'll ask you to go to the quiet place and have a chat. You can agree in two ways:

  • just agree.
  • [Barter 35] agree but ask for an additional fee for a contract (you'll get 500 caps).

Enter the [Presidential Suite] (M7A:2) using the Presidential Suite Key, which Benny gave you. Walk around for a while and then go to an intercom near the elevator. You'll hear some unpleasant message - Benny won't come. Choosing proper dialog options [Speech 35], [Speech 50] you can convince Benny to spare your life. Otherwise after a while four Benny's bodyguards will pop in and you have to fight them. Benny will flee.

A quest is unlocked: [Wild Card: Ace in the Hole].

You need to talk to Yes Man to complete [Ring-a-Ding-Ding!].

After a successful chat use an elevator (M7A:3) and go with Benny to his room on 13th floor (M7B:1) or to the presidential suite (M7A:2) - Ring-a-Ding-Ding! - Initial quests - Fallout: New Vegas - Game Guide and Walkthrough
  • use a [Black Widow] perk to seduce Benny;
  • [Speech 65] agree but only if Benny go with you right away.

After a successful chat use an elevator (M7A:3) and go with Benny to his room on 13th floor (M7B:1) or to the presidential suite (M7A:2). Being there:

  • [Terrifying Presence] intimidate Benny and then kill him;
  • trust him and take 250 caps;
  • attack Benny;
  • [Black Widow] sleep with him.

If you choose second or third option you will have to fight his bodyguards and if you wanted to sleep with Benny:

  • kill him while he sleeps;
  • fall asleep.

If you kill him, take the Platinum Chip from his body. If you decide to sleep longer than him, Benny will escape.

A quest is unlocked: [Wild Card: Ace in the Hole].

Option 2

Talk to Swank (M7A:4) at the reception desk - Ring-a-Ding-Ding! - Initial quests - Fallout: New Vegas - Game Guide and Walkthrough

Talk to Swank (M7A:4) at the reception desk:

  • [Speech 15], [Speech 30], [Speech 45] if you have a conversation this manner you can convince him that Benny is guilty;
  • show him 3 pieces of evidence: an engraved cigarette lighter (you get it from Jessup in Boulder City), a note (got from Manny in Novac) and a distinctive cigarette butt (you can find it near your grave in Goodsprings).

If your speech tests fail or you lack of evidences, you can convince Swank just a bit - you'll be able only to take your weapons with you.

Whichever option you choose, Swank can help you in two ways:

  • you'll get a key to Benny's room;
  • you'll decide to deal with Benny right away.

If you choose the first option, just go to the Benny's room (M7B:1) on [13th floor] (M7A:3) and search it discovering hidden room (M7B:2). Benny will flee.

If you decide to deal with him, go to Benny's room (M7B:1) on [13th floor] (M7A:3).The main difference is that now Benny waits for you there. You can end the mission in a few ways:

  • [Terrifying Presence] intimidate Benny and then kill him;
  • trust him and take 250 caps;

If you choose the first option, you won't be attacked by bodyguards. If you choose the second one, Benny will flee and you'll have to fight a few guards.

A quest is unlocked: [Wild Card: Ace in the Hole].

Option 3

Just kill Benny, his bodyguards and the rest of guys in a hotel. Search his body and take the Platinum Chip.

A quest is unlocked: [Wild Card: Ace in the Hole].
