With just over three weeks to go before theFallout TV serieshits the airwaves, Amazon has dropped a two-minute clip from the show in which Vault dweller Lucy finds herself caught up in a sticky situation between a gun-slinging ghoul and the Brotherhood of Steel.

While not much actually happens, the scene touches on aspects of Fallout that will be familiar to fans: The babe-in-the-woods naivete of a newly-emerged Vault dweller, the rough-living durability of ghouls, and—although it goes unsaid—the very strong likelihood that the senior citizens on the wrong side of Walton Goggins' bad mood probably deserve whatever was going to happen to them. It may not click with non-gamers, but if you know the games you’ll recognize those notes.

The appearance of the Brotherhood of Steel trooper is a little more ambiguous. Is he a good guy? A bad guy? A fascist tech-hoarder or upright defender of little people? Or perhaps he’s an uncertain cog in an uncaring machine who discovers the world is filled with wonder, and that the hopes and dreams of the individual are as important to a worthwhile future for humanity as peace and order? (That’s where I might be inclined to put my money.)

All of that stands in contrast to recent remarks from Fallout series director Jonathan Nolan, who said that trying to please fans of the games with the show would be a “fool’s errand.” He’s not wrong, but as the famous saying goes, war never changes, and when you get right down to it neither does Fallout.
