“I'm comin' to meet you Elizabeth!”— Lumpy after getting hit

Lumpy is a passing traveler in Broken Hills in 2241, who appears only when the Chosen One enters the town with the Highwayman.

Background

Seemingly plagued by bad luck (or at least homicidal automobiles), Lumpy is run over by the Chosen One when they arrive at Broken Hills in the Highwayman,^[1] spilling numerous body parts. This isn't the first time Lumpy has been in an accident involving automotives either - before the Great War, he claims that he personally caused a Nuka-Cola truck to crash, sending bottle caps everywhere.^[2]

He then leaves the town indefinitely, no matter if the Chosen One chooses to help him from under the car or not (in which case he will be gone after a zone change).

Appearances

Lumpy appears only in Fallout 2.

Behind the scenes

The Nuka-Cola truck Lumpy refers to is a reference to the Nuka-Cola Truck special encounter in Fallout.^[2]
Lumpy's line "I'm comin' to meet you Elizabeth!" is a cultural reference to the 1970s sitcom Sanford and Son, in which the character Fred Sanford would say "This is the big one. I'm comin', Elizabeth!" (or variations thereof) while feigning a heart attack.^[3]
