Quests

 * The Power of the Atom: If Lucas Simms is dead when you disarm the bomb, Harden will reward you with a home in Megaton and any caps you requested at the beginning of the quest. Despite his father being dead he shows little emotion about it.

Other interactions

 * The Child at Heart perk has no effect on this character.

Notable quotes

 * "You might wear his badge, but you're not my dad."
 * "You're my hero mister, when I grow up I want to be just like you." (If you have Good Karma and/or disarmed the bomb in Megaton.)
 * "I'm not allowed to talk to strangers."

Bugs
