Description

You always gotta have a contingency plan in case your main plan backfires! That's why I've built in some anti-intelligence systems into the construct.

Your shiny new ride might rouse some suspicion while you're at Baelgun's excavation site. That's what your bluff ability is for! Just use that any time you're confronted and you'll be safe from harm.

Test it out on Lebronski by walking on his rug. Once he starts huffin' and puffin', use the bluff!

Get on the work bench when you're ready to begin.
