Fallout: New Vegas Hints

Report to Colonel Hsu.

  • 1 of 2: Go back to Colonel Hsu's office in the terminal building and tell him about finding and killing Curtis if you did that. (If not, you won't get this objective until after you finish the "Find and defuse the bomb on the McCarran monorail before it leaves the ..." objective.)
  • 2 of 2: After the monorail bomb is defused or goes off, report back to Colonel Hsu to get some caps and NCR fame. Note that saving the monorail gets you more caps, plus more quest-finishing XP.
