Fallout Season 2 Episode 4 ushers in Las Vegas and a Brotherhood shootout

Collider reports that Fallout Season 2 Episode 4, "The Demon in the Snow," shifts several storylines toward Las Vegas and sparks a violent internal conflict within the Brotherhood of Steel. After Maximus kills Paladin Xander Harkness, Thaddeus dons Harkness’s power armor to bluff his way past other Brotherhood members, but suspicion and the disappearance of cold fusion lead several Elders to open fire on one another.

Maximus admits he killed Harkness to stop him from killing children — who turn out to be ghouls — and confronts Elder Cleric Quintus, who shoots at him; Dane hides the children and delivers the cold fusion so Maximus and Thaddeus can flee as the Brotherhood descends into chaos. On the Vault side, newly thawed Vault‑Tec personnel follow Norm while Vaults 32 and 33 strain under water rationing and internal experiments, including an in‑breeding support group and Stephanie’s hinted‑at “Overseer stuff,” with a revealed Canadian ID adding intrigue.

Lucy wakes in a New California Republic site, becomes addicted to Buffout after a two‑day drip, and — urged on by the Ghoul — takes more drugs, storms into Las Vegas, guns down Elvis‑dressed ghouls, discovers a giant egg and is left stunned when a Deathclaw rips doors off a nearby building.
