Fallout 3 Hints
How should I deal with Amata's interrogators?
1 of 7: Open the security door and go through it, ready to do combat with Officer Mack.
2 of 7: The quickest way is to have the 10mm pistol out and go into V.A.T.S. mode as soon as you move through the door. Shoot Mack in the head as many times as you have action points for, then retreat and repeat if your first volley doesn't bring him down.
3 of 7: Loot his body, then all four of the lockers and both of the desks that are in the room.
4 of 7: NOTE: If you haven't been over-encumbered by stuff before, you probably will be now. Combine like items by repairing them as much as you can, then put junk items in the lockers if necessary until you can run again.
5 of 7: Go in the back room and use the sink and/or toilet to fully restore your hit points, then go deal with the Overseer.
6 of 7: You could just leave him, or kill him to get his office key and terminal password plus some stimpaks. (*Not* recommended.)
7 of 7: Or you could ask him for his key and password, then threaten to hurt Amata in order to get them without a fight.
