Theodore Collins

Theodore Collins is a human running the Longneck Lukowski's Cannery.

Background
Theodore Collins discovered the cannery and repaired the Mister Handys within it to work processing the meat. He taught himself how to operate the canning retorts and began working with various traders to bring him meat and sell his product. The traders were unable to bring him enough meat to keep up with demand, so he began mixing in meat from mole rats in the basement and hoping nobody would notice. Eventually one of the canning retorts exploded, causing the basement to become infested with feral ghouls. He then began mixing in the meat from the feral ghouls to keep up with demand, causing consumers to become ill. When the Sole Survivor encounters the cannery, he/she finds Theodore arguing with Trader Rylee about the quality of the meat. He claims that the meat was contaminated by molerats, and warns the Survivor to stay out of the basement. When the Survivor goes down to investigate, he locks the elevator to prevent them from telling anyone his secret. The Survivor then fights their way up to ground level and confronts Collins, causing him to attack. Before he's finished off, he begs for his life and offers to split the profits. The player then has the choice to kill him or let him live and get caps.

Appearances
Theodore Collins appears only in Fallout 4.

Bugs

 * Talking to Trader Rylee before Theodore will cause a dialogue bug that removes the option to ask him about people getting sick, resulting in Mystery Meat becoming unobtainable from him. You can still start the quest by going all the way up the inside of the cannery and going down the elevator in the SE corner.
