Notes
Asking him if he is holding anything from the Courier will result in gaining Freeside infamy. Alternatively, thanking him for the help will grant information and Freeside fame.
Appearances
Wayne appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.
Behind the scenes
- Putting the names of the three men together gets "Roy Wayne Farris" - real name of WWE Legend The Honky Tonk Man, who wrestled with an Elvis impersonator gimmick and is also the cousin of Jerry "The King" Lawler.
- A subtle reference to "Lou Tenant" is made in Fallout: New Vegas during the quest G.I. Blues. When talking to Wayne about being attacked, he will mention that one of them was called Lou, and on further thought, Lou Tenant. He will then be corrected by his friend Roy, who says he means "Lieutenant," and that Wayne can be "dumber than a mutant."
