Detailed walkthrough[]
After starting the quest Fix The Old Computer, talk to Dr. Rossman and ask about other things to do. He will hand over the key to the Robotics Lab. Use the elevator in the Atrium to get there. Afterwards, head to the robotics lab, the door to which is located in the Entrance to Onyx Point on the right side of the hallway to the vault door. Many destroyed robots are found in the lab, and two can be repaired, B-6-RK and ALPHA.
In order to complete the quest both robots must be repaired, activating the quests Domo Arigato for B-6-RK and A Roboto Mori for ALPHA (by completing the "Cybershock Alpha" terminal text adventure game.) 50 Science is needed to repair B-6-RK and 75 Science is needed to repair ALPHA. They do not have to be completely finished, but all objectives before being told to return tomorrow should be completed.
When the objectives in the two quests are completed, "Wait, We Have Robots?" will end after exiting the robotics lab.
