Some people in the wrong place at the wrong time

Some people in the wrong place at the wrong time is a scripted special encounter in Fallout 2. It will take place on August 30th, 2241 when traveling the world map, or if in a world map location on this date, the encounter follows as soon as the Chosen One enters the world map again.
==Overview==
The Chosen One stumbles upon a confrontation. On the right side are two Enclave soldiers wearing advanced power armor and armed with miniguns, and Frank Horrigan, one of the Enclave's Secret Service agents. And on the left side are a farmer, his wife, and their small child, all of whom are unarmed and unarmored.
Frank Horrigan demands the man and his family to come with him and his men immediately, which the farmer refuses, demanding to be left alone as he will never support the cause of their superiors. Horrigan issues a second and final warning to the farmer and his family, threatening "they will be made an example of." The encounter's in-game dialogue file
Still refusing to comply with the strange group, the farmer replies that he would rather the knowledge he has disappear with him into the grave. With that, Horrigan orders his two troopers to kill them, and they are promptly executed. Horrigan and his troopers then wave the Chosen One away, stating to them it is none of their business and that they should turn around and walk away.
==Notes==
This is the first time the Enclave and Frank Horrigan are encountered in Fallout 2, and the scripted nature of the encounter virtually guarantees this to be found relatively early in the game.
==Behind the scenes==
While the exact answer is unknown, in Fallout Bible 4, Chris Avellone provides his personal assumptions saying that the farmer may have known "key information on the possible location of a Brotherhood of Steel outpost/bunker, some key genetic research that would enable the researchers to finally decode the FEV and/or figure out how to release it" or that perhaps he was "an escaped Enclave scientist."Fallout Bible 4
