Quests

Trouble on the Homefront: Taylor is the second security guard you see when you reenter the vault. Even though he blames the Lone Wanderer and James for the problems in Vault 101, he is not hostile.

Effects of player's actions

His wife Agnes died due to a heart attack from the excitement of the fighting leading up to the events of Trouble on the Homefront.
Upon the Lone Wanderer's entry into the Vault 101 atrium during Trouble on the Homefront, he will be seen arguing with Freddie Gomez, who is attempting to leave the Vault and has a knife. He will fire at Freddie, but miss, resulting in Freddie's retreat.
Despite him having Neutral Karma, killing him results in Karma loss.
