Colette is the daughter of Henry Cooke and a visitor to Diamond City in 2287; appearing only after the completion of Diamond City Blues.
Background[]
Colette and her father communicated with each other regularly, but they have since fallen out of touch.[1] Colette is well aware of her father's seedy behaviors, including his adultery and his penchant for dangerous, less-than-legal endeavors. She has tried many times to convince him to clean up his act, knowing that the way he lives will eventually lead to his demise.[2][3] She self-admittedly has an "overly suspicious" nature.[4]
Colette will only appear after the quest Diamond City Blues has been completed, explaining that she has come to Diamond City looking for her father since she had not heard from him for some time. She will interrogate the Sole Survivor for his whereabouts.

Effects of player's actions[]
The outcomes with Colette depend on the choices made during Diamond City Blues. There are two encounters with Colette, and the second encounter depends on the fate of Paul Pembroke in Diamond City Blues as well as the outcomes of the first encounter.
- First encounter
Colette will first be encountered sitting outside the Dugout Inn, and will offer the Sole Survivor a free drink. She can be optionally flirted with, though this does not lead anywhere. She will then ask for information on her father's whereabouts, and can then be told that Henry Cooke died or disappeared (depending on how Diamond City Blues went. Alternatively, Charisma checks can be used to convince her that the Sole Survivor knows nothing about the situation, though she will become suspicious if they are failed.
- If Cooke died, and this information is revealed to her, she will demand further answers. If not convinced to back down, she will hold the Sole Survivor at gunpoint unless they can pacify her via a Charisma check or by confessing the truth (regardless of who actually killed Cooke.) Alternatively, she can be attacked and killed, though this will anger Diamond City security.
- If Cooke lived and left Diamond City, she can be told so and will simply accept it and leave, avoiding the second encounter. Otherwise, answering evasively will cause her to become suspicious.
- Otherwise avoiding her questions, answering evasively without revealing Cooke's fate, or walking away from the conversation entirely will cause her to become suspicious, leading to the second encounter.
- Second encounter
The second encounter with Colette occurs in Diamond City one week after the first one, if the player character's answers in the first encounter made her suspicious (failing the Charisma checks to say they didn't know Cooke, telling her Cooke left but refusing to say why, or walking away from the conversation,) or if Paul Pembroke is alive and was screwed over in Diamond City Blues by being given an unequal cut of the heist rewards or being left out of the heist. If Paul is alive and was screwed over, he will have told Colette that the Sole Survivor killed her father regardless of whether this is true or not. Otherwise, Colette will simply be suspicious and want more information.[验证逾期]
- If Paul was the one who put Colette up to the interrogation and Cooke is in fact dead, Charisma checks can be used to try and convince Colette that Paul is lying, or was the one who killed Cooke. If they are successful, Colette will back down and leave, and Paul will later be killed offscreen. Darcy Pembroke, alongside generic Diamond City residents, will later comment on this event.
- Otherwise, if Cooke is alive, the options are simpler. Telling her exactly why Cooke left will make back down and leave. Speech checks can be used to avoid answering yet again, but failing them will cause Colette to attack the Sole Survivor.
- If Cooke is alive, but Colette does not trust the Sole Survivor, even telling her the entire truth will require an easy Charisma check. A medium Charisma check can be used to make her pay 100 caps for the information, after which telling the truth will no longer require a speech check.
- If the player character really was responsible for Cooke's death, and manages to end both encounters with Colette peacefully, she will later show up at a random settlement or in Goodneighbor and immediately attack the player character, saying that she found out what they did.
- Assassination
If Paul Pembroke is still friendly with the player character, and he and the player character killed Cooke in the Colonial Taphouse during Diamond City Blues, and the player character incurred Colette's suspicion during their first meeting, Paul can optionally be talked into having Colette killed. He will either decide to kill her himself, or the player character can offer to do it instead.

Behind the scenes[]
Jan Johns, who voiced Colette, stated that Colette was one of the hardest roles for her to portray, because she was a much deeper character than most people realized. Because Colette is looking for her father, recording those lines brought Johns back to the time that her father went missing for a two-day period, similar to how she felt about Ellie Perkins missing Nick Valentine. She worked hard in toeing the fine line between portraying the character and self-indulgence for an actor.[Non-game 1]

Colette: "Goddammit. Yeah, that sounds exactly like him. I told him not to keep messing around with those... it doesn't matter now, does it? Well. Thanks for letting me know. Bye."

Colette: "Okay. That does sound exactly like something my dad would get mixed up in. Sorry. It's just my overly suspicious nature. I guess it's time to move on. I'm not going to find my dad here."
