"Take care of Officer Jack" for Mira is a quest intended for combative characters in Fallout 2, it's the only option left if talking Jack down doesn't work.
Walkthrough
Talk to Mira with a stupid character and at least ST 7; Merk will point you in her direction if you talk to him. She'll tell you to climb a rope over the city wall. If it's nighttime when you enter downtown, Jack will be in the police station. Wait until dawn, and he'll walk over to the power station and threaten to blow himself up, which is the best opportunity to waste him without annoying anyone; you can actually let him blow himself up with the same result. When he's dead, head over to the bazaar and talk to Mira for your reward.
Notes
- This quest pops up when Jack dies even if it wasn't active before, so you can go and get Mira's reward although you don't get the extra XP for killing Jack. If you let Jack blow himself up she says she's giving you a rad-a-waster, but you don't get any booze in your inventory like you would if you bought one. If you killed him yourself, however, she gives you the HK P90c.
- For a normally non-stupid character, the best time to get this quest would be after talking Jack out of blowing himself up. Use Mentats, Psycho and/or Buffout to get the quest, then go kill Jack silently in his cell for the 2000 XP. You must remain stupid to collect the reward.
- If you fought Lenny in the ring, Mira's dialogue will be different and you won't get the quest, and if you already got the quest you don't get Mira's reward (whether you're stupid or not).
