|---|---|
| 1 | ![]() Head to the Port Authority building, which is the tower at the Landing Pad near Winter's Grasp. |
| 2 | ![]() (Optional) Go behind the tower and examine the crate of Crabble cake rations. If you pass the check, you will gain evidence of the dealings of the Sub Rosa Finagler. Note: You can directly examine the crate to trigger the quest without first talking to Huguenard in Winter's Grasp. |
| 3 | ![]() Enter the tower and ride the lift. At the upper floor, you will find Sub-Finagler Peoria Quebecker. Note: You can also unlock the quest by talking directly to Sub-Finagler Peoria and skipping the conversation with Huguenard and the examination of the crate of rations. |

Talk to Sub-Finagler Peoria and make her confess about her dealings. Choose any of the dialogue sequences where you meet the requirements to make her spill.
| Dialogue Sequence to Make Peoria Confess | |
|---|---|
| Bribe | 1. I have proof that a crate of of crabble rations that made people ill shipped through here. (Requires examining crate of crabble cake rations) 2. It's not you I'm after. I just want the truth and I'm willing to pay. (500 Bits Required) |
| 1. Hm. Wasn't actually suspicious until you said that. 2. A-ha! You used a double negative just then. Ergo, you do need to tell me something. (Professor Background Required) |
|
| 1. I have proof that a crate of of crabble rations that made people ill shipped through here. (Requires examining crate of crabble cake rations) 2. So you won't mind if I tell those sick Protectorate troopers you're here then. (Speech 11 Required) |
|
| Step-by-step Walkthrough | |
|---|---|
| 1 | ![]() After revealing her transaction with the Protectorate, she will hand over an audio recording of her confession to you, which starts the quest Confessions of a Sub-Finagler. |
| 2 | ![]() Return to Winter's Grasp and report to Huguenard about what you've found out regarding the Sub Rosa Finagler. He'll be pleased with your findings and reward you, thus completing the quest. |
| 3 | ![]() Alternatively, you can lie to Huguenard and tell him to arrest Peoria. Doing this will also complete the quest and receive the same reward, but your reputation with Sub Rosa will decrease by 5. |
The only difference on whether or not you tell the truth to Huguenard is that your reputation with Sub Rosa will decrease by 5.
