Paradise Falls

Paradise Falls, formerly the Paradise Falls Shopping Center, is a strip style shopping mall It is the main hub of slaver activity in the Capital Wasteland.

Background
The slave trade in Paradise Falls has been led by several individuals in the past, including Harmon Jurley and the "Black Widow" Penelope Chase. Eulogy Jones currently manages the operation after killing the previous leader. Herbert Dashwood mentions that the slaving operations used to be less organized, but is now the "most dangerous dump in the Capital Wasteland." The inhabitants of Paradise Falls purchase and sell slaves as well as offer bounties for enslaving VIP targets.

Layout
Paradise Falls can be found by traveling north from Vault 101, Arefu, or Vault 106. It is located to the west of Minefield and is recognizable from a distance by its most prominent landmark, a Big Burger Boy statue holding an ice cream cone.

The compound is a rectangular strip mall-style compound, protected by walls of stacked derelict vehicles. On the northwest side of the compound, a dirt path lined with makeshift fencing and barbed wire leads to the entrance. The mouth of the path is guarded by Grouse, who sits just outside the compound. Access can be gained by doing one of the following:
 * Passing a Speech check and bribing Grouse with 500 caps.
 * Accepting the Strictly Business quest and capturing at least one of the four VIPs.
 * Completing the Head of State quest in favor of the slavers.
 * Having Evil or Very Evil Karma and asking "Do you know who I am?"
 * Fighting or sneaking inside.

Interior
Within the wall is the pre-War archway and sign for the shopping center. Above the entrance is the severed arm of the Big Burger Boy mascot. It has since had spikes driven into it and was attached to a hydraulic gate so it can be lowered or raised for defense. However, the gate will not be lowered to block entry, even if the exterior guards are killed.

Immediately through the entrance is a defensive barrier with "Stow Your Piece," and an image of a revolver with a circle and slash through it painted on it. On the east side of the entrance, is the path to the weapons shop, Lock and Load. It is inside a large building with signage reading "Restaurant" on the roof. Behind this is a sentry post built around the Paradise Falls sign. Directly to the west of the entrance are the slaver barracks, built out of the two-story liquor store, and Cutter's clinic, built within the store called Velmas.

Eulogy's pad
Alongside the clinic's entrance are defensive barriers built using vehicles and at the east end is a generator. Past the generator is a stairway to the sentry post. Southeast through the opening is Eulogy's pad, a former cinema, and to the west is a makeshift open-air bar and grill built into the ruins of a RobCo parts store. Outside the theatre entrance, is an open fire with a brahmin on a cooking spit near a pool table.

Another makeshift wall opens in front of Eulogy's pad, which leads to the southernmost section. The slave and brahmin pens run along the southern edge, built within what was once a clothing store. In front of the pens, next to the barrier wall, is "The Box," a Pulowski Preservation shelter that has been refitted into a holding cell. An inaccessible Freddy Fear's House of Scares costume shop shares the pen's east wall. A former coffee shop sharing the pen's west wall houses the compound's toilets.

Behind the scenes

 * Paradise Falls was designed by artist Nathan Purkeypile.
 * The Vault 77 jumpsuit found here is mentioned in One Man and a Crate of Puppets.
 * The "Big Burger Boy" statue is the real world mascot of the Big Boy Restaurants.
 * On the pool table in the barracks, beer pong is set up.
 * The Paradise Falls starburst is based on the sign for the now-defunct Satellite Shopland in Anaheim, California.

Bugs

 * It is possible for all of the town's slavers to be hostile when first arriving. This problem may occur if one has entered Paradise Falls using the speech skill or negative Karma when talking to Grouse, instead of doing the quest "Strictly Business". If one enslaves just 1 of the 4 targets, this issue should then be fixed.
 * It is also possible that after putting the slave collar on Flak, the player character may return to Paradise Falls and they'll be hostile.
 * Grouse will attack Fawkes even if one has gained access to Paradise Falls after enslaving one of the four VIP targets.
 * Instead of taking just one loading screen to enter Paradise Falls, it takes two loading screens, despite that there is only one entrance.
 * Sometimes, when walking out of Eulogy's pad, the slavers may become hostile.
 * It is possible that a Deathclaw or a pair of Enclave soldiers may spawn inside the Paradise Falls compound or glitch through the boundary walls and kill the slavers. If the Enclave soldiers kill Crimson, Clover will continue talking to Eulogy as if nothing happened. If the Deathclaw kills Grouse while the quest Strictly Business is active, the player will fail the quest.
