Amata ran over to Albert and tried to hug him, but he shoved her away.

"Whoa! Back off!" said Albert.

"W-what are you talking about, Albert? It's me! Amata!" said Amata.

"I know that, but why are you here?" asked Albert.

"The vault's opened up. We're here to work with the people of the wasteland" explained Amata.

"Albert, who is this?" asked Sarah.

"This is Amata Almodovar. My ex from Vault 101" said Albert.

"The one who exiled you?!" said Sarah.

Sarah was about to go and beat Amata's shit in, but Albert stopped her.

"Sarah, calm down. She's not worth it" said Albert.

"Albert, who's this?" asked Amata.

"This is Sarah Lyons. Sentinel of the Brotherhood of Steel, and my new girlfriend" said Albert proudly.

"You... you have a new girlfriend?" asked Amata sadly.

"Well, I assumed it was over between us when you kicked me out" said Albert.

"Hey, Albert!" said Officer Gomez.

"Gomez" said Albert while glaring at him.

"Albert!" said Susie and Christine as they ran over to him, Amata, and the others.

"Susie. Christine" said Albert while glaring at them also.

"Jefferson" Officer Kendall said as he and the rest of the security guards glared at Albert, who glared right back at them.

"Well, look who it is" said Butch as he walked over to them with Marie.

"Butch! Good to see you again!" said Amata.

"Mommy! Daddy!" Marie squealed as she toddled over to Albert and Sarah.

"Hey, kiddo!" said Albert as he lifted his daughter in the air, making her giggle.

"YOU HAVE A DAUGHTER?!" said Amata.

"Well... yeah. She's not biological, but me and Sarah adopted her" said Albert.

"Well, I guess I shouldn't be surprised. I did see her room when I was in your house" said Amata.

"YOU WERE IN MY HOUSE?!" said Albert.

"Yeah. You're Mr. Handy let me in" said Amata.

"Damn it, Wadsworth. We talked about this" said Albert under his breath.

"Look, how about we discuss this whole vault opening thing somewhere else?" said Sarah.

After that, they went to Albert's house, where they were greeted by Wadsworth.

"Ah hello, sir! Welcome home!" said Wadsworth.

"Wadsworth, what did I say about letting just anyone into the house?! You remember what happened last time!" said Albert in annoyance.

"My apologies, sir. It's just that she said she was a friend of yours from Vault 101. So I assumed you'd be ok with it" said Wadsworth.

"She's not my friend... not anymore at least" said Albert coldly, making Amata even more sad.

After that, they all sat at the table to discuss plans.

"We can talk to Elder Lyons tomorrow about trading with Vault 101. It'll take a while to get there, just so you know. So, we'd have to go first thing tomorrow morning" said Albert.

"Ok, then" said Amata.

After that, Amata and her team rented beds at the Common House and Bar. While Albert, Sarah, and Marie went to sleep in their house.
