Follow this series of tunnels which will lead you down into the basement. There you will find Pickman being held at gunpoint by some Raiders. Kill the Raiders and be careful not to hit or injure Pickman himself.
Once the Raiders are dead, speak with Pickman and he will reward you with the key to the safe. Additionally, before you leave, but sure to pick up theStrength bobbleheadlying on the ground beside a trashcan.
