The Moon Comes Over the Tower

 is a quest in Fallout: New Vegas.

Walkthrough

 * Enter the Lucky 38 casino.
 * As you enter, turn left and head up the stairs to the VIP lounge.
 * Activate the terminal behind the bar.
 * Choose the option to bug the network.
 * Head back outside the casino. Emily should be at the bottom of the stairs or immediately to the left (near the gate to the next part of the strip).
 * Tell Emily you bugged the network, she will tell you that this data "might come in handy".
 * However, after that, the reports stop coming in (due to Mr. House removing the bug).

''Note: After the quest it is possible to tell Mr. House that you bugged his network, he will say that he "already noticed it, and removed it in 39.739 seconds", indicating that it is useless to bug his network. ''

''Note: After returning to Emily to talk about the bug, it will open up dialog options to learn that Benny had approached her in order to restore a Securitron, presumably Yes Man. He wanted her to link it to Mr. House's data network, but to make it invisible to the network. In the event that Mr. House detects a rogue device on his network, he remotely fries it. You also learn that this is her third attempt to extract data from the network.''

 * (2) Super Stimpacks
 * (2) Med-X

Bugs

 * {{Platforms|PS3} After completing the quest Emily will remain outside the casino and you can talk to her to learn about the first attempt on hacking Mr. House's network. A 35 speech level dialogue option eventually becomes available that will remain in the dialogue list even after granting the player the reward for selecting (experience, completion of speech towards challenges). This allows the player to get credit for completing speech challenges (the experience points for completing the speech option is only given once however). Note that ending the conversion will block any further communication (and thus exploitation) although Emily will remain in front of the Lucky 38.
 * Emily may enter the Lucky 38 to present this quest, when doing Act II before doing Act I.
 * Emily approached this player in the middle of another quest, in another part of the Mojave in order to ask if I had bugged the Lucky 38 yet.
 * You can still get the quest after killing Mr. House, it does not change dialogues with Emily. (tried twice on PC version)
 * Even if you have installed Yes Man on Mr House's computer system, Emily will still tell you Mr. House disabled the bug 30 seconds after installing it.
