Need help completing assassinating Westin for John Bishop (FO2)

The_Atomik_Punk!

First time out of the vault
So it looks like I've backed myself into quite a pickle unintentionally; I desire to kill Westin for John Bishop in New Reno, and thus aim for the NCR absorbs New Reno ending (and avoid the Vault City Lynette & Westin marriage/independent ending), but it looks like I inadvertently messed that up. I can not walk into the Shark Club to report to John Bishop that I killed Westin, because I unintentionally became a "made man" for the Wrights, when I told him of the location of the Sierra Army Depot, and I guess I am not yet a made man of the Bishops, because I haven't told him that I killed Westin yet, which I now can't do!

This is my first, and realistically only play-through of Fallout 2, so I'd like to do what I can to get the ending that aligns with my preference. Basically, I strongly favour the NCR, and despise Vault City, so I was thinking that I would like to have New Reno and Vault City absorbed into the NCR. Furthermore, I'd also like to get the "impregnated Mrs. Bishop/ daughter gives birth to my descendant, but they as well turn hostile as soon as I step foot in the Shark Club. From what I gather,the way to achieve this is to kill Westin for Bishop, and NOT tell the Wrights about the Sierra Army Depot, but I think I may have cut off that possibility now, as the Wrights know the location of the SAD, and made me a made man. I've read wearing Power Armor will let me get up to Bishop without his thugs turning hostile immediately, but I doubt that would solve my problem. Any help guys?
 
Initiating combat with a Wright family member should remove your Made Man status.
 
That did the trick; thanks Dead Guy! I'm not sure which ending is going to go down, considering that I informed the Wrights about the Sierra Army Depot, but also considering that Bishop should facilitate the NCR expansion to New Reno, so I'll have to wait and see!
 
Glad to hear it, I don't remember what triggers the different endings, but I think as long as you kill off their boss you shouldn't get any of the Wright endings.
