🎬‘Fallout’ Season 2 Episode 6 Recap: The Guy Behind the Guy Behind the Guy.

Fallout has given you precious little reason to do so. When this well-guarded community of ruthless mad scientists was first introduced back in Season 1, it was so early on in the show’s worldbuilding that I didn’t even know they were a separate entity from some of the other factions we’ve met, like Vault-Tec (I thought they were a subsidiary) or the Brotherhood of Steel (I thought they were the Enclave’s muscle). I’m sure this is all a lot clearer if you’ve played the video games, but alas, I’m living proof that not all of us are people of culture. Anyway, the Enclave is responsible for both the cold fusion relic that’s been the show’s central maguffin, and for the loyal dog who’s taken a liking to the Ghoul. Both were smuggled out by Wilzig, a scientist played in (I thought) a single-episode cameo appearance by Lost’s Michael Emerson. Grievously wounded by the Ghoul, he committed suicide rather than slow down Lucy’s escape with the device, which was stored inside his severed head. (We learn that it was stored inside Hank MacLean’s head before the war in a similar fashion, though he wasn’t beheaded at any point during the retrieval process.) That, it seemed, was a wrap on Wilzig and the Enclave. Until a pair of revelations hit us this episode. In the present, we learn from a hulking mutant Ringwraith-Thanos type guy played by Ron Perlman that the Enclave were responsible for the apocalypse. In the past, we watch them order Barb to make that first-strike proposal to America’s corporate overlords from last season, or face the death of her husband and daughter. The man who delivers this threat? Wilzig, who says he’s under similar conditions himself. Telling this story to her husband, Cooper Howard, when he confronts her with what he knows about the plan to drop the bombs does not have the effect Barb intended. When he asks her how she could sentence millions, billions of people just like them and their daughter to death to protect their daughter herself, she asks, wouldn’t he? I don’t think he would, at least not in this pre-Ghoul incarnation. But plenty of people not only would, they’d jump at the chance. Just the other day I saw a viral post in which father of a newborn boast he’d wipe out whole continents just to see his baby daughter smile. Odds are that this asshole doesn’t even change the kid’s diaper without being asked, but here he is, champing at the bit to commit genocide to show what a good dad he is. Remind you of anyone? “Some things just never change,” Hank MacLean tells his daughter Lucy in the present. “People just wanna kill each other, don’t they? I think it’s the only way that people feel safe. It’s ironic, isn’ tit? To feel safe they have to kill each other.” It’s the raison d’être of the fascism we see playing out on American streets in 2026: In order to assuage our baseless fears, we must inflict terror on others. There’s a similarly blunt argument made elsewhere in the episode that also reflects the modern right’s warped way of thinking. Down in Vault 33, we learn there’s no real master plan behind Reg’s inbreeding support group turned thinly veiled way of getting around ration restrictions. He just really wants to eat and drink a lot, and to share this bounty with as many people as possible, because living high on the hog rules! It’s true that Ron properly clocked Betty and the other Vault 31’ers he’s known as strange, but his credo is one of pure selfishness and privilege. ‪@moviematrixx1‬
