Farrel wants you to find Cornelius's gold pocket watch. Find it and return it to Farrel

 is a Fallout 2 quest obtained from Cornelius in Modoc.

Walkthrough
Both Farrel and Cornelius can give you this quest.

Asking Cornelius about it, he will mention that Farrel has a safe. However, Farrel is a bit touchy about it and won't let you open it. If you do, the watch isn't there and Modoc will turn hostile.

Anyway, go outside and into the outhouse. You can open the "toilet" and climb down. A huge cavern filled with goo (yuck) is there, with a pile of rocks blocking the passage to the north. Your character will remark that the cavern is full of methane gas, so the smallest spark would blow it sky-high.

Leave your NPCs outside and get an explosive. Put it near the blockade then RUN! As soon as you climb back up, it will go off, turning the outhouse into a crater and covering half of Modoc with goo (extra yuck). It is possible to die in the explosion, so save first. It is also possible to survive the explosion in the cavern if you hide in the farthest corner, JUST LEAVE NPCS OUTSIDE!!!

Now, go into the cleared blockade. You will find a Mole Rat defending it's lair. Kill it, then scour the lair for the watch and a Bag. Now, give the watch to Farrel. If you give it to Cornelius, he will forget about it in a second.

Bug: if the watch is below the Bag in your inventory, it won't be removed so you can give it to both. It is cause by the F2 engine unable to handle the item container properly. However, you can use the bag in a number of useful ways, like dropping explosives next to people without turning them hostile.
