Detailed walkthrough
You'll start this quest by speaking to Dr.Klein, He will tell you that it's time you went to the forbidden zone, and get your brain back. He also asks you to deal with Dr.Mobius.

You'll start by travelling to The Forbidden zone, there you'll encounter a few Robo-Scorpions, After dealing with them and entering the zone it self, Dr.Mobius will release his latest Experiment, A huge Robo-Scorpion, You can either fight with it, or enter the room to the right, and use the terminal to access turret controls to turn it upon the Giant Scorpion.

After defeating it, the courier must proceed to confronting Dr.Mobius, and recovering his brain, simply take the stairs to the left of the entrance and make your way to the door on the right. There you'll meet Dr.Mobius, he's not hostile, and here you got 2 choices, Reason with him, Or Kill him. If you choose to reason with him, he'll direct you to brain and he'll ask you to convince it to join back with you. You must then speak to your brain, and you have to convince it to join you again, having high medicine/Science will give you a slight advantage and make your dialogue much easier.

After acquiring your brain, you have to talk to Dr.Mobius again, He'll tell you more about what the Think-Tank is all about and suggest you deal with them, instead of himself, The choice is yours of course. After making your choice, simply travel to the Think-Tank. There you'll have to either Fight or reason, In order to reason, you must have at least 80 in Speech skill.

Bugs

 * Watch out what you say to your brain. When you ask it if it wants to be reunited, and then choose the compromise option, DO NOT USE THE SECOND CHOICE! If you have completed Come Fly With Me and That Lucky Old Sun, you can get caught in a never ending loop of him talking about the quests. You cannot get out of this loop unless you reload a previous saved game. (Verified, Xbox 360)


 * Before entering the Forbidden Zone Dome, it is advisable to make a new separate save as when entering through the main entrance into the arena with the Giant Robo-Scorpion, it is possible to load under the catwalk and become stuck there.
