This mod was installed with kyberpunk, a mod pack I have been trimming down while I play due to the "kitchen sink" approach of just throwing every mod they can that doesn't crash the game before it launches. That being the case, I entered this without any knowledge, I came here while uninstalling the mod. This quest is extremely bugged to the point of not being fun. The constant respawns of enemies when passing the markers means that any attempt to clear the bridge to walk her out just spawns more enemies, the way the quest notifications and constantly checking the phone is also pretty annoying and makes a slow mission slower, the reliance on sniping on harder difficulties due to enemies being spawned well outside of scanner range limits play styles drastically, and after getting through all of that only to find that none of the vehicles I have actually have a trunk that is usable is the last straw for me personally. There waypoint system being used for the quest means that looking at the map has a risk of wiping your ability to follow through with the quest by losing the waypoint. The idea was good, welcome even, but an actual mission with a provided vehicle to ensure completion is possible, removing the time limit on the second half, and fixing the spawning is extremely necessary. The fact that the enemies on the bridge spawn on top of you if you are standing at the ladder when you call her is another issue. At a minimum a checkpoint when you get to her the first time would be necessary, If the issues i have encountered are not intended then they are extremely bugged, but this mod needs a lot more work
This really needs more cooking. Checkpoints are one thing, yes. But I wasted about a bunch of time trying different cars because none would allow me to drop her in, even big ones like the Delamain and the Jefferson. She ended up dying when I was close to Victor and I immediately saved, because there is no way I'm doing the looooooong walk across the dam again.
Thanks for the framework and the mod. Looking forward to seeing you tweak it. Hopefully soon. Do you know if it is compatible with the 8ug8bear Romance mod? That mod was also well done and it would be nice to have them work together.
Once I got the hang of the mission and figured out how the instructions were being given, it was actually pretty straight forward and really rewarding to complete. As others have noted, it would have been nice to have a save point, especially once you start driving.
The mod is very bugged cant recommend it given the state it's in. For starters once you have to put bugbear down to open the gate you won't be able to. Sometimes it's allowed me to but other times it won't it's really a hit or miss. I'd imagine this would be easy to fix if you simply made the gate swing or give a prompt to open it since other more complicated mods similar to this one like panams kidnapping does similar things. The other problem is she dies way too quickly from a couple of fender benders during the drive to Victor's. Once I was able to get past all of these issues after reloading a save and doing the mission from the beginning only to find bugbear not in the trunk after driving very slowly and not getting into any gun fights and accidents. She was messaging me up until I parked my car and opened the trunk only to not find her there. Hopefully the creator could solve these issues but until then do not download unless you like to torture yourself.
It's how a quest should be. Not a hand holding walk in a day care, like all games are dumbing down to.

I have had 3 play throughs and working on my 4th. I am learning at each step and not discouraged by MY lack of understanding. 8ug8ear literally tells you what to do. You just need to make sure and trigger the start spot at the dam. The car thing is a bit buggy, but it's fine. It literally took me about 20 seconds to find a car that works. Use one with a real trunk that looks like a standard, no frills, vanilla car.
For people not knowing how to get her up to the road, she tells you, "we need to get through the garbage" I Missed a few msgs as they do rapid fire at you. I missed the key one after I set her in Vic's chair on my last attempt. I never left the building. I picked her up again and the quest stopped triggering the chair as a quest marker.
QuestRunner, Thank you for sharing this. I hope you continue to add content. Your creativity is among the best. 😃
Just wanted to say thanks to the dev team for this game.It’s super fun to play.I know some of you might be stuck on a certain part,so I thought I’d share some tips.
So after you get the message, you gotta call 8ug8ear. Even though the call won’t go through,that’s what makes the white marker show up on the map. And it’s only when you get to that marker that the enemies will spawn. What I did was put 8ug8ear in the Wakako's car,then I teleported to the dam and checked my message.
There are two enemies at the white marker.Once you take them out,there’s a ladder going down.Just keep fighting your way forward.When you get to the end and turn the corner,you’ll see 8ug8ear lying on the ground.
Pick her up and head back.There’s a door along the way.If you shoot at it a few times,you can squeeze through.I’d recommend shooting through the door before going in.It’ll save you some time later.
I was using a car called “Valdo” that I won in a boxing match.It’s a golden convertible.
On the way,8ug8ear keeps sending messages.She mentioned that it’s safer to go through Vista Del Rey of Haywood and avoid Little Chinatown.I followed her advice and didn’t run into any enemies,so I didn’t have the problem of her dying in the trunk.
Just one thing for the developers: When I retried the mission,I didn’t go to the white marker first.I just went down and killed all the enemies and put 8ug8ear in the trunk.But she didn’t send me any messages or mark Vik’s location.I had to drive the car to the white marker before she sent the message.And I had to go back to her original spot to get the message again,even though she was already in the trunk.I just ran back to the car.This part could use some optimization, I think. That’s it from me.Hope this helps someone out there.Keep on playing!

Some Autosaves at critical junctions would be nice.

There's a lot of trial and error in this quest.
