Nyoka said she'll help guide you through the Monarch wilderness, but only if you can sober her up.

Passion Pills is a companion quest in the Outer Worlds.

Walkthrough

When the Stranger speaks to Nyoka to enlist her help in reaching the information broker as suggested by Phineas Welles, she will refuse to accompany them until she sobers up, a process which can be accelerated if they bring her some Caffenoid from the town's dispensary.

Abigail Edwards runs Stellar Bay's dispensary. When asked for Caffenoid, the Stranger has the option to say that it is for Nyoka or to lie (Lie 20) and say that it is for them. If the latter option is chosen, Abigail will say that she is not allowed to dispense medicine to non-residents of Stellar Bay, forcing one to tell the truth. Abigail will tell the Stranger that Nyoka has exceeded her monthly allotment of Caffenoid but that it can be bumped up if she agrees to join MSI. Throughout the conversation, Abigail will drop hints on the different ways in the Caffenoid can be acquired, either by upping Nyoka's allotment or by taking it from the locked storage room upstairs.

Threatening Abigail

The most straightforward method of getting the Caffenoid is to threaten Abigail with Intimidate 55. This will lead her to immediately handing over the Caffenoid for Nyoka although she is very disappointed with the Stranger's behavior.

Increasing Nyoka's allotment

Increasing Nyoka's official monthly allotment of Caffenoid can be done using the terminal upstairs in the dispensary. This requires Hack 50 to access the relevant entry.

Stealing the Caffenoid

There is a dose of Caffenoid in the locked storage room upstairs. Unlocking the door requires Lockpick 30 or the Dispensary Supply Room Key. The key can either be pickpocketed off Abigail Edwards or found on the corpse of Dr. Williams, in the Stellar Bay Ruins (South) graveyard. Dr. Williams' corpse will be guarded by many raptidons who will be hostile when one approaches. The Caffenoid is on a shelf in the storage room.

Return to Nyoka

Regardless of the method in which the Caffenoid is acquired, return to Nyoka at The Yacht Club and give her the pills. She will then join the party as a companion (if the party is already full, she can be told to wait on the ship, or one of the existing companions can be dismissed).

Quest Stages

Stage	Status	Description	Log Entry
1		Get Nyoka's Medicine from the MSI Dispensary	Nyoka needs a "steroid-or-caffeine something." the dispensary serves them, but she has reached her month's allotment. According to Abigail, Dr. Williams managed allotments from a terminal upstairs. It sounds like Abigail stores medications in a locked supply room upstairs. Abigail implied that she and Dr. Williams both have keys to the medical supply room.
2		(Optional) Search Dr. Williams' Body	Dr. Williams, who used to be in charge of Stellar Bay's medical allotments, is buried in a graveyard in the ruins south of town. Abigail implied that she and Dr. Williams both have keys to the medical supply room.
3		Return with Nyoka's Caffenoid	You have Nyoka's pill.

Outcome

You delivered a Caffenoid dose to Nyoka.

Bugs

• If the Stranger doesn't agree immediately to get her the Caffenoid, or point out that caffeine isn't a real drug there is a big chance that you lock yourself out of getting her as a companion.
