Walkthrough

For this quest you'll need to learn more about the men who robbed and shot you, and figure out where they went. If you talk to the people of Goodsprings (#1), including Victor, the securitron who rescued you, then you'll learn a few things about the men, including that most of them appeared to be Great Khans, but for a serious lead you'll need to travel south to Primm.

When you reach Primm (#2), if you talk to Johnson Nash (in the Vikki and Vance Casino), then you'll learn that the men passed through Primm, and that Deputy Beagle eavesdropped on some of their conversations. Unfortunately, you'll then learn that Beagle subsequently got captured by the convicts who took over the town, and that he's now being held in the Bison Steve Hotel.

Inside the hotel, you'll find Deputy Beagle tied up in the kitchen. If you sneak up to him via the maintenance door then you'll be able to reach him with a minimum of violence. Otherwise you'll have to fight your way through about a half dozen convicts, including the convict leader, to get to him.

When you talk to Beagle, he'll demand that you set him free. If you have at least 30 Speech, then you'll be able to convince him to talk to you right away. Otherwise, you'll need to untie him and then get him out of the hotel before he'll say anything to you. When Beagle does talk, he'll reveal that the men you're looking for headed up to Novac, and he'll recommend that you follow them via Nipton. If Beagle dies in the hotel, then you'll need to read his journal (found on his corpse) to learn about Novac.

When you reach Novac (#3), you'll learn from Jeannie May Crawford (at the Dino Dee-Lite Front Desk) that the men talked to Manny Vargas when they passed through the town. You'll find Manny either in his motel room or at his post in the mouth of the Dinky the T-Rex sculpture (accessed via the Dino Bite Gift Shop). When you ask Manny about the men, he'll ask you for a favor in return, and he'll give you the quest Come Fly with Me. If you don't want to complete that quest, then you can also get Manny's information from the terminal in his room, or by stealing the Holotape from his inventory. Regardless, you'll learn that the men went to Boulder City.

When you reach Boulder City (#4), you'll learn from Lieutenant Monroe that a group of Great Khans is holed up in the ruins. This is a part of the quest Boulder City Showdown. Inside the ruins, you'll meet a Great Khan named Jessup (in the Great Khan hideout). Jessup will recognize you from the Goodsprings cemetery, and he'll tell you that the Khans were just following orders from a "chairman" named Benny, who works at The Tops Casino in the New Vegas Strip. Jessup will then inform you that Benny never paid the Khans for their work, and he'll wish you good luck in hunting him down. To help you out, he'll give you Benny's Engraved Cigarette Lighter. If you end up fighting Jessup rather than talking to him, then you'll find a holotape about Benny plus Benny's lighter on Jessup's corpse. Either way, learning Jessup's information will complete the quest and earn you 1000 xp.
