The Tops offers a classic Vegas experience, with cool, hip, fun, and macho posturing to entice those with a sense of style. This is a place for manly men with a dame on each arm; here to see the [[Rad Pack Revue|Rad Pack]] as they perform their routine “The Four Taps” over at the Ace Theater. Choose a fine wine, order the Brahmin steak rare, and have a good time, baby! The place is run by The Chairmen, who talk tough, but most of them don’t take things too seriously; they’re just too cool and laid back to let anything get to them (with the exception of [[Benny]]).<ref name="FNV Guide">''[[Fallout: New Vegas Official Game Guide]]''</ref>
  +
  +
==Layout==
  +
The Tops is a casino right out of Vegas's rat-pack era. [[Frank Sinatra]]'s music plays softly in the background to the clinks of slot machines. Security is tight, with Chairmen out front to collect patrons' weapons before they step inside. The weapons will be automatically returned to your inventory when you leave, and you have the option to hide [[holdout weapons]] if you can pass the required Sneak check.
  +
  +
There are six main areas with loading screens between them: the casino, restaurant, Aces theater, Presidential suite, 13th floor, and the courtyard.
  +
  +
===Lobby and casino===
  +
There's a circular desk in the lobby where the player can usually find [[Swank]]. Beyond it is the casino proper, with a main hall to the right as one enters and a smaller section just behind the main staircase. Beyond the stairs and the smaller casino section is the elevator bank, which has only a single working elevator to the 13th floor, and a door to the courtyard. In the large hall is the entrance to the restaurant and an express elevator to the Presidential suite, which requires a key.
  +
  +
On the second level, just up the main staircase on the left, is a cashier where the player can change chips for cash and vice-versa. Right next to the cashier is the entrance to the Aces theater.
  +
  +
===Restaurant===
  +
{{Main|The Tops restaurant}}
  +
A bartender sells an assortment of drinks. There's a kitchen behind an average locked door which has some food and alcohol, including 5 [[Nuka-Cola Quartz]]. A door leads to the courtyard from here.

===The Aces theater===

  +
[[File:The Tops courtyard.jpg|right|200px]]
  +
===Courtyard===
  +
The courtyard is a small area behind the Casino. It has a pool, which is surrounded by palm trees and a brick wall. There are several [[Gambler (character)|gamblers]] milling around along with a few [[Chairmen]].{{clear}}
  +
  +
===13th floor===
  +
The 13th floor contains a variety of nondescript rooms with average locks, Benny's suite, and the High Roller's suite. There are at least five average locked doors on this floor.
  +
  +
The [[The Tops High Roller suite|High Roller's suite]] is a slightly larger room than the rest, and contains some minor loot. Entering requires a key, which can be obtained by winning enough chips in the casino (see [[The Tops#Gambling|the "gambling" section]]). This is not a good place to use as character housing, as the guards on the floor will enter the suite once the door is unlocked and will take any consumables that are in the room.
  +
  +
[[Benny]]'s suite is in the center of the hallway, through the only double doors. Benny's suite door has an average lock, which may be picked or opened using a key obtained from Benny or one of his henchmen. The room itself has minor loot; the big attraction is a rough hole in the wall that connects to Benny's secret workshop, where the player can find [[Yes Man]] and begin the [[Wild Card]] quest.
  +
  +
At the end of the main hallway, the very last door is locked with a special key and cannot be picked open. It is unknown whether or not there is a key in the game that unlocks it.
  +
  +
===The sub-basement===
  +
Beyond Benny's workshop is a hallway with an elevator, used by Benny as an emergency escape route. The elevator requires a key to access, but there is no key that opens it in the game.
  +
  +
However, a script unlocks the elevator when Benny begins to flee The Tops (such as if the player attacks him in the lobby), and a different script locks it again if he succeeds in reaching it (verified with GECK). The behavior of this script can be exploited to gain access to the sub-basement by causing Benny to flee, and killing him before he can reach the sub-basement elevator. This is most easily accomplished during [[Ring-a-Ding-Ding!]] by convincing Benny to meet you in the [[The Tops presidential suite|Presidential suite]], telling him that you forgive him, and then killing him as he tries to leave. Any other trigger for him to flee will work, however if he makes it to the 13th floor elevator he may outrun the player.
  +
Once Benny is dead, the sub-basement elevator will then be unlocked, with Benny unable to reach it to trigger the re-locking portion of the script, allowing you to go down and explore. Tricking the script in this way is the only way to gain access to the sub-basement on a console; on the PC version players can simply use the "Unlock" console command to unlock the door.
  +
  +
The sub-basement itself is a small room with a breached wall leading into a sealed-off section of [[Vault 21]]. The section is presumably part of the reactor maintenance section for the vault. It does however contain some minor loot in lockers, and several explosives crates that Benny must have used in excavating the section.
  +
  +
If you explore the unfinished vault, you will find several inaccessible doors, but there is one at the end of a corridor, that once open with the console command "Unlock" will lead to a void. Jumping inside this void you will be teletransported to the real vault 21. Then you can simply turn around and leave to New Vegas or explore the vault.

“You'll dig us, baby. We're the tops.”— Mr. New Vegas, Fallout: New Vegas

The Tops is one of the casinos on the New Vegas Strip in 2281 controlled by the Chairmen, one of the three tribes that were allowed into New Vegas after the war at Mr House's invitation.

Background

“Fully renovated by the Chairmen, The Tops is billed throughout New Vegas as a place for men to kick back, drink, laugh, and have a good time.”— Fallout: New Vegas loading screen

The Tops offers a classic Vegas experience, with cool, hip, fun, and macho posturing to entice those with a sense of style. This is a place for manly men with a dame on each arm; here to see the Rad Pack as they perform their routine “The Four Taps” over at the Ace Theater. Choose a fine wine, order the Brahmin steak rare, and have a good time, baby! The place is run by The Chairmen, who talk tough, but most of them don’t take things too seriously; they’re just too cool and laid back to let anything get to them (with the exception of Benny).[1]

Layout

The Tops is a casino right out of Vegas's rat-pack era. Frank Sinatra's music plays softly in the background to the clinks of slot machines. Security is tight, with Chairmen out front to collect patrons' weapons before they step inside. The weapons will be automatically returned to your inventory when you leave, and you have the option to hide holdout weapons if you can pass the required Sneak check.

There are six main areas with loading screens between them: the casino, restaurant, Aces theater, Presidential suite, 13th floor, and the courtyard.

Lobby and casino

There's a circular desk in the lobby where the player can usually find Swank. Beyond it is the casino proper, with a main hall to the right as one enters and a smaller section just behind the main staircase. Beyond the stairs and the smaller casino section is the elevator bank, which has only a single working elevator to the 13th floor, and a door to the courtyard. In the large hall is the entrance to the restaurant and an express elevator to the Presidential suite, which requires a key.

On the second level, just up the main staircase on the left, is a cashier where the player can change chips for cash and vice-versa. Right next to the cashier is the entrance to the Aces theater.

Restaurant

A bartender sells an assortment of drinks. There's a kitchen behind an average locked door which has some food and alcohol, including 5 Nuka-Cola Quartz. A door leads to the courtyard from here.

The Aces theater

Players can buy a drink or watch one of the shows and acts that are going on. Here you can find Tommy Torini, who gives you the side quest Talent Pool.

Presidential suite

Main article: The Tops presidential suite

This is only accessible with a key obtained from Benny.

The Tops courtyard

Courtyard

The courtyard is a small area behind the Casino. It has a pool, which is surrounded by palm trees and a brick wall. There are several gamblers milling around along with a few Chairmen.

13th floor

The 13th floor contains a variety of nondescript rooms with average locks, Benny's suite, and the High Roller's suite. There are at least five average locked doors on this floor.

The High Roller's suite is a slightly larger room than the rest, and contains some minor loot. Entering requires a key, which can be obtained by winning enough chips in the casino (see the "gambling" section). This is not a good place to use as character housing, as the guards on the floor will enter the suite once the door is unlocked and will take any consumables that are in the room.

Benny's suite is in the center of the hallway, through the only double doors. Benny's suite door has an average lock, which may be picked or opened using a key obtained from Benny or one of his henchmen. The room itself has minor loot; the big attraction is a rough hole in the wall that connects to Benny's secret workshop, where the player can find Yes Man and begin the Wild Card quest.

At the end of the main hallway, the very last door is locked with a special key and cannot be picked open. It is unknown whether or not there is a key in the game that unlocks it.

The sub-basement

Beyond Benny's workshop is a hallway with an elevator, used by Benny as an emergency escape route. The elevator requires a key to access, but there is no key that opens it in the game.

However, a script unlocks the elevator when Benny begins to flee The Tops (such as if the player attacks him in the lobby), and a different script locks it again if he succeeds in reaching it (verified with GECK). The behavior of this script can be exploited to gain access to the sub-basement by causing Benny to flee, and killing him before he can reach the sub-basement elevator. This is most easily accomplished during Ring-a-Ding-Ding! by convincing Benny to meet you in the Presidential suite, telling him that you forgive him, and then killing him as he tries to leave. Any other trigger for him to flee will work, however if he makes it to the 13th floor elevator he may outrun the player. Once Benny is dead, the sub-basement elevator will then be unlocked, with Benny unable to reach it to trigger the re-locking portion of the script, allowing you to go down and explore. Tricking the script in this way is the only way to gain access to the sub-basement on a console; on the PC version players can simply use the "Unlock" console command to unlock the door.

The sub-basement itself is a small room with a breached wall leading into a sealed-off section of Vault 21. The section is presumably part of the reactor maintenance section for the vault. It does however contain some minor loot in lockers, and several explosives crates that Benny must have used in excavating the section.

If you explore the unfinished vault, you will find several inaccessible doors, but there is one at the end of a corridor, that once open with the console command "Unlock" will lead to a void. Jumping inside this void you will be teletransported to the real vault 21. Then you can simply turn around and leave to New Vegas or explore the vault.
