Objective(s):
- Convince Velma to Negotiate
- Inform Caleb that Velma will Negotiate
- Inform Velma the Situation is Resolved
Convince Velma to Negotiate
Head to the warehouse and talk to Velma Ballard about Caleb. She isn’t convinced by any of the dialog options. If you have Lie 30, you can find out that she might have something that can be used against her for blackmail on her terminal. If this evidence is found, Velma might be persuaded to increase Caleb’s salary. On the other hand she also tells you that Caleb is living off of a stash that he keeps at his home, which is located near the diner. You have the option to steal his stash to make him return to work. Note that either option has the same rewards.
*Blackmail Velma: To find Velma’s terminal, head to the second level via the stairs next to the break room. Once at the top of the stairs, follow the walkway to Velma’s office. To access her terminal, you will need Hack 55. Once you hack your way in, look at her personal files to get some leverage on her. Return to Velma and use the new found information to get Caleb that raise.
Inform Caleb that Velma will Negotiate
Head back to Caleb at the Yacht Club and give him the good news to complete the quest.
*Steal Caleb’s Stash: Head to Chef Raymond’s diner and go up the stairs. Jump over the railing on the balcony facing south. From there, turn left and jump onto the overhang of the next building. Caleb’s stash is located in the yellow bin. You will need Lockpick 50 to open it and loot its contents. Return to Caleb and tell him he doesn’t have the savings he thinks he does (you can also lie if its 50).
Inform Velma the Situation is Resolved
Head back to the warehouse and tell Velma that Caleb will be coming back to work. This will complete the quest.
