Questline: This romance unfolds across several quests. Completing them in order and making the correct dialogue choices is crucial.
1. Complete Ghost Town:

Then, flirt with Panam by saying "Maybe we get just one room?" Sleep at the motel to conclude the quest.
2. Complete Lightning Breaks:
This quest follows Ghost Town. There are no dialogue choices impacting the romance; simply follow the objectives.
3. Complete Life During Wartime:
When confronted with the Aldecaldos and Saul, defend Panam by choosing "It really wasn’t Panam’s fault." After the mission, text Panam: "Maybe Mitch was right. You should go back. Settle everything once and for all." Wait several in-game hours/days before proceeding.
4. Complete Riders of the Storm:
Help Panam rescue Saul. When asked for help, say "We’re chooms, that’s why." When riding with her, choose "Yeah, ‘course." After escaping, choose either "Let’s take it easy – you’re both tired" or "Shitty idea, Panam’s right." At the motel, choose the flirtatious options: "Pleased with your stay, ma’am?", "You’d be more comfortable with your shoes off, ma’am.", and "[Touch Panam’s thigh] Got a few ideas." After the morning after, say "[Stop Panam] Wait. About last night…"
5. Complete With a Little Help from My Friends:
Agree to help Panam. Choose "OK, I’m in" and "I’m riding with you." During the conversation at the tower, select: "[Stand by window] Missed you.", "So let’s start.", "Great plan. What went wrong?", "So far, so good.", "Why’s it different with me?", and "[Touch Panam’s hand] Next time, try following that impulse." At the campfire, choose "[Scooch closer] Gotten kinda cold."
6. Complete Queen of the Highway:
After waiting a day, return to the Aldecaldos camp. Choose "Nice and cozy in here." During the Basilisk sequence, select "[Let Panam touch you] Oh, yeah. Let’s go." After the battle, select your preferred dialogue options. Finally, say "I can stay for a bit. Thanks." and then "[Kiss Panam] Thanks for being here for me."
