Forum:Problem with "You'll Know It When It Happens" quest

So I'm completing the game except this time I'm backing the NCR (already completed the game backing House, YesMan and Legion). I picked up You'll Know It When It Happens quest at the dam where you're suppose to protect the president. I picked up the quest from Colonel Moore of the NCR. The quest states "Report to Ranger Grant". Ranger Grant is in the Visitors Centre behind the desk facing three other Rangers. When I talk to Ranger Grant all he says is "We've got a lot to do to prepare for the President's visit and not much time". The only option to choose is 'Goodbye'. When I did the House and YesMan endings this mission was pretty straightforward, but now I've come across this problem. Is there something I'm supposed to do or is this a bug and I'm screwed.

Go around the long desk and talk to him. I had the same problem when trying to talk to him with the desk in between. Went around it got very close and it worked. 99.229.39.184 17:03, November 6, 2010 (UTC)

No luck. I've been so close to him when I clicked on him to talk I could've licked the crumbs from his mustache. I was actually pushing him around the room that's how close I was, but it's still the same old same old. 99.229.39.184 17:03, November 6, 2010 (UTC)

Same thing happened with me, never could get past the same point you talked about. I just assumed it was yet another bug in this bug infested game. But now the cat above says to smell the rangers breath but you say it didn't work. Three more days till Black Ops, yeah.Rainyday999 12:44, November 7, 2010 (UTC)

Fergup 20:10, November 8, 2010 (UTC) try waiting..I always forget. I can testify that 95% of the times i was stuck on quest complets or dialog options that waiting for whatever period of time solved. Sometimes its waitng from day to night, sometimes just an hour, other times its been 2-3 days need to elapse.....you never know but its worth a shot
