Fallout 3 Hints
Gain entrance to Paradise Falls.
1 of 10: Once you reach Paradise Falls (location 8 on the Zone 2 Map), find its big sign on its west side, then go over to the nearby sandbag wall and talk to Grouse about entry.
2 of 10: Unless your karma is in the evil range, Grouse isn't going to let you in for free.
3 of 10: TIP: If your karma isn't very high, you can use the Easy Ways to Lower Karma tips to quickly lower it to where Grouse will let you in.
4 of 10: If you can pass a Speech Challenge, he'll let you in for a 500-cap bribe.
5 of 10: Another way is to ask for a deal. You'll then need to complete one objective on the "Strictly Business" misc. quest to gain entry. (TIP: Enslaving Arkansas is the easiest and most lucrative one to do.)
6 of 10: Or you could do the "Head of State" misc. quest, choosing to help the slavers wipe out Hannibal Hamlin's abolitionists. Mention that to Grouse to gain admittance.
7 of 10: Last, but least, is the option to kill Grouse, and then fight all of the other slavers in the area. This is a *very* dangerous way to do things, so save first if you want to try it. The rest of these hints will assume you gain peaceful entry somehow.
