Layout
An upgraded Sonic Emitter pistol is needed to get past the force field blocking the stairs going down. On the bottom floor below, the Y-17 master trauma harness is wandering around. After disposing of it, three more Y-17 trauma override harness entities will spawn at the front door.

Two deluxe chemistry sets can be found on the bottom floor. For each chemistry set, and with a Science skill of at least 25, these can be used to create five stimpaks or a set of five "drugs."

Behind the scenes

 * With the Wild Wasteland trait, the Y-17 master trauma harness and the three regular Y-17s that spawn upon his death will say "Hey, who turned out the lights?" This is a reference to the Doctor Who episode "Silence in the Library."

Bugs

 * If the Y-17 master trauma harness detects the player character, it may pass through the forcefield and commence attacking, spawning the other enemies upon his death.
 * The Y-17 master trauma harness may be able to shoot the player character through the forcefield, but without the Sonic Emitter, he cannot be killed.
