Technically, Lucy’s mom didn’t “die” like she was told her mother did — instead, her mother was turned into a ghoul. During the season finale, when Lucy is standing in front of her dad locked in a cage and hearing Moldaver’s side of the story, she realizes that the ghoul sitting next to the season’s assumed villain is none other than her mother.
What’s the connection between Lucy’s mom and Moldaver?

Rose and Moldaver knew each other before her eventual expulsion from Vault 33, as Rose hoped to bring her family to be part of the rebuilding of civilization on the surface. As that is the primary goal of the citizens’ survival in Vault 33, Rose learning of Shady Sands gave her hope.
But when she attempted to bring her and Hank’s two children to the surface to join the Shady Sands colony, Hank revolted against the idea, ultimately being the driving force behind its destruction.
When Lucy finally reunites with her dad, she learns of her mother’s real fate — and sees her sitting, as a ghoul, beside Moldaver at her dinner table.
“Moldaver was definitely f–king Lucy’s mom,” reads one tweet put out not long after the series dropped.
“OK please tell me it’s not just that feels like Rose and Moldaver were a thing like THEY ARE LUCYS MOMS TO ME,” another tweeted.
Viewers were only able to see just a small sliver of Rose’s time alive with Moldaver during the last episode of Season 1, suggesting that their relationship will be expanded on in subsequent seasons. But given that Rose the ghoul was sitting next to Moldaver, as peaceful as a necrotic post-human can be, it’s clear that the duo have a special connection — the details of which the show’s creators have decided to leave vague, for now.
Season 1 of Fallout is now streaming exclusively on Prime Video.
