Find the "house with a flamingo in the front" just northeast of the patrol car. Investigate behind the house to find the following:
Klein's notes, part 2 - Holotape, next to one of the skeletons.
Wolf check-in #64 - Note, in a cooler behind the house with a plastic flamingo in front of it.
Travel to the monitoring station referenced in Wolf check-in #64. It is a greenhouse on the roof opposite Van Lowe Taxidermy. Pick up the following items which are in the leather bag found at the monitoring station:
The 'Further instructions' note references the note 'From mom' which is found in the basement of Van Lowe Taxidermy. Travel back there.
Set the washing machine cycle to "Delicates" and set the dryer heat level to "Low Heat'. Interact with the calender on the wall marked "Laundry Day" near the machines and the wall of the basement will open to reveal the entrance to Calvin van Lowe's secret laboratory.
Investigate the laboratory to find the following clues:
Property deed - Note, on a desk surrounded by broken robots.
Then take the assembly password, which is in a tool chest near a tinker's workbench. This will unlock the assembly platform terminal.
Access the assembly platform terminal and access the "Session 4: Assaultron [SN:RX-0022CF9]" entry to retrieve the behavioral reprogramming holotape. Listen to it.
Access the assembly platform again and access the "!!! - EMERGENCY CHECK-IN !!!" entry. Downloading the coordinates to Garrahan Estate will complete the quest and begin the follow-up quest Wolf in Sheep's Clothing.

Find the patrol car
I found a transmission on Wolf's terminal that warned him about two officers investigating the case of Calvin van Lowe. They were last reported on the East side of Lewisburg. I should head there and see what I can find out.
I've found the police officers; they were killed while following the man in the "fancy suit." I should investigate the scene to see if I can find out more about this well-dressed stranger.
It seems the two police officers were killed by Wolf, some kind of agent with a connection to Calvin van Lowe. He left instructions for anyone that's following him: obtain a keycard and further instructions from Bo-Peep's look out station. I should head there to learn more.

(Optional) Listen to Klein's second recording
The police officers that were looking into Calvin van Lowe's disappearance left a recording behind. They ended up tailing a suspicious stranger in a "fancy suit." They intended to follow him to a "house with a flamingo out front." I should try and pick up their trail.
Bo-Peep's instructions indicate that I should head to the basement of Van Lowe Taxidermy. I don't know what awaits me there, but the note left some cryptic clues: Laundry day, washing and drying "unmentionables", and marking the date on a Calendar.

Enter the secret room
I've found a secret door in the basement of Van Lowe taxidermy. I should head inside to see what I can find.
I've found a secret door in the basement of Van Lowe taxidermy. It lead me to a secret robotics lab that appears to have been used by Calvin van Lowe. There's signs of a struggle here. I should investigate further to if I can discover the fate of Calvin.
I've found a log left behind during Calvin's "behavioral reprogramming" sessions. I should listen to it to find out what happened.

Notes[]
Upon the release of Wild Appalachia, part 1 of Klein's notes was found in a cop car on the streets of Lewisburg. At an unknown point prior to December 2022, the tape was moved to its current location, but the quest text was not changed to reflect this.[1] The issue was noticed enough to warrant a Bethesda Help page.
