Gecko Economic disk and Bug With The Brain

First time out of the vault
I'm using the latest version of Killap's patch, along with the Killap-compatible version of the B-Team mod. (Awesome patches btw. Big thanks to Killap for all his hard work)

Is there any way to get the Economic disk from Gordon after you fix and optimize the power plant? I kind of forgot about the economic disk while doing the power plant quests. Now when I talk to Gordon his dialogue ends with "Now that you've fixed the power plant, I can live up to my potential" or similar, and then the only option is to say goodbye. I'd really like to get it so I can see the good Gecko/VC ending. No, I don't have any pre-repairing saves. (Yeah, I know)

One other thing: I'm getting a bug where The Brain's (the big rat in Gecko) dialogue has Errors that cause the dialogue to end before he give you the talisman. I first went to talk to him before repairing the plant to get the economic deisk, thinking that was the only way to get it. When I saw the errors, I figured I'd get to it later, then kind of forgot about it.

My gut tells me the answer is 'no' and I've fucked it all up. Will using an inventory editor to give myself the disk work, or will that break the game, or just get non-responses from important NPCs (ie McClure)?
 
UPDATE: Well, I used an Inventory editor to give myself the disk and it seemed to work. I gave it to McClure, convinced him to show it to the council (yay high speech skill), got a message saying I got 750 xp for giving the disk to him, and the "deliver economic disk" quest was added to my Pip-Boy and marked as solved.

Two strange things though: when I went to talk to McClure, the only available option was Error, the response was Error, then dialogue ended. When I talked to him a second time it worked fine. Then, the last bit of McClure's dialogue after giving him the disk had the word Error at the very beginning, but the rest seemed fine.

So, now the question is: is there any way to get the economic disk after fixing and optimizing the plant without cheating?

I tought you NEEDED the economic disk to optimise the plant. How did you do it without it?

Festus can tell you about optimization after you repair the plant, then he gives you a blank holodisk. You take it to the central computer in the vault, get the optimization data, then take it back to the plant, and presto.
