After entrust the artificial confines of Vault 33 , she make a crash path in surface - dwell life in the post - revelatory globe — as well as the sinister truth about its history .
address to GQ , Purnell admit she mat a fortune of insistence , recognize that Fallout already had a devoted devotee base and Prime Video ’s Brobdingnagian weapons platform meant the show would be see by even more orb . “ I am just Fallout - centric in good order now . I just corrode , breathe , subsist , shit Fallout , all the time , ” she joke . But the audience — which does , yes , include a discussion of that gruesome finger conniption with Walton Goggins ; Purnell said it was “ so fun ” to shoot — also digs into how Lucy ’s feeling at the death of the season .
She ’s just learned her father , former Vault - Tec executive Hank ( Kyle MacLachlan ) , who she ’s been urgently trying to rescue , is complicit in the nuclear - fuel destruction that derail civilization one C of year prior .

“ I thought , What ’s the contrary of Lucy ? ” Purnell recalled of calibrating her performance in the time of year finale . “ What ’s the opposite of the womanhood we ’ve grown to learn and love ? She ’s relentlessly affirmative … so the opponent of that is seeing the light drain out of this pharos of hope ; see the luminosity enfeeble out of her eyes . And find her catatonic . ascertain her numb . And there ’s no more fight left in her . ”
Purnell continued . “ I conceive there is a part of her that is like , ‘ I just do n’t make love where to dig from . ’ The center of her is cast off out of her body . That light that exists in her solar plexus , that genuinely think in the Golden Rule , her cold fusion , is just go . It ’s just scatter … I want the audience at the last of the show to wonder if their hoagie is still a good somebody . I do n’t know who she ’s gon na be in season two , [ but ] this is what happens when you break the unbreakable . I do n’t have intercourse who she ’s about to become . ”
As for that “ Okey - dokey ” line delivery at the terminal , Purnell said she channeled the feeling of “ just knowing that everything is wholly out of your control condition … I think that ’s how Lucy feels about her promise . She recognize that something is irreversibly lost , or interrupt , inside her . perhaps she still does keep it in time of year two , but it will never be the same . It ca n’t . ”
