War Pigs

War Pigs is a side job in. It is only available to players who chose the Corpo Lifepath, and involves V receiving a dead man's switch message from their former co-worker at Arasaka, Frank Nostra.

Walkthrough
After you complete the Never Fade Away stage of the Tapeworm quest, you will be called by an old acquaintance from Arasaka, Frank Nostra. Frank tells your that Susan Abernathy is purging the counterintelligence department at Arasaka, getting rid of everyone that is not a hundred percent on board with her. For reasons unknown, Frank is on her list, and as a countermeasure, he put together files on Abernathy to make her life harder. He tells you that he has put them in a secure location, in case something would happen to him, knowing that you'll know what to do with them.

Go to the location. You can talk to Johnny before moving the dumpster, but once you move the dumpster and open the briefcase, you find out that it's empty, just before you are confronted with a very much alive and well Frank, who wants to turn you over to Abernathy to get back into her good graces. You have two options for how to deal with him, depending on whether you talked with him during the Corpo Lifepath. Taking any of the hostile options, the ones that outright threaten violence, will lead to a fight with him that will require you to neutralize him and will allow you to claim his weapon, Apparition, once he is either killed or incapacitated. But you also have the option of convincing him to give up this plan and starting anew like you did, at which point he will leave and end the quest.

Journal Entry

 * A voice from beyond the grave, the promise of dirt on old enemies... I'll admit, I'm a little curious. But in your shoes, I'd be careful with this one. Corpos are liks wasps - they can sting even after they're dead.
