First, thanks for the reply. I was referring to the vanilla characters and "quests". Yes, I have completed all required tasks/quests and have passed all speech checks and met all the linear conditions, as stated in walk-throughs of each characters quest. Yea, I checked those to make sure I didn't miss anything. I'm referring to when I get to the point that each of the mentioned characters, Red Lucy and Joana have invited me into their room and offered to "lay down with me", wherein they wear the skimpy/sexy lingerie and lie down on the respective bed...then, I'm just supposed to "activate" (click on) the bed and the scene should, by all accounts, fade to black. The specific problem is, when I click on the bed...nothing happens, just the "clicking sound", but no activation. If I then click on either woman/character..they both respond with "lay down with me", just as before, thus the "sequence" seems to stall, hang or loop, without any conclusion. So I'm wondering if this is a bug that never got fixed. I'm not running any mods that change either of the characters, except for NVR3 (New Vegas Redesigned" and there is no mention in comments of such problems because NVR3 doesn't alter scrips, it is just textures enhancements. to the best of my knowledge. I've checked a few FNV wiki sites, mostly like Fandom and the general wiki, as well as Forums on the Nexus with no luck. I'll check the sites you mentioned and thank you for your reply, input and suggestions..links.
