Head to Freeside and speak with the King at the King's School of Impersonation where you will find many Elvis look-a-likes. Ask him if he has any work for you to receive [200 CAPS] and the mission to hire Orris for the same amount of caps.

Head to the Freeside gate and hire Orris for safety then follow him through the town. Towards the end of the trip your bodyguard will take off and fire some shots. With four men lying on the pavement Orris boasts of his accomplishments, but you can chime in (with Intelligence 6 ) that he fired three shots and four men lie "dead" on the ground. From here you can use a Barter 50 challenge to receive [348 CAPS] and send him packing or play along but observe the men on the ground with Medicine 30 to reveal they aren't dead.

If you fail either of the challenges or simply want to kill Orris then do so. Afterwards return to the King with either news and he sends you to check out the Old Mormon Fort nearby.
