Quest soft locked 'The Brain benders of Aunties Choice'

[Beddy]

Hey LOVING the game so far!!  Ijust have a small issue;

I searched the map questing before proceeding to choose minister milverstreet's storyline, but i only chose to when inez's side quest was prompted and when i went to him they argued and she quit. 

Afterwards i was given  the quest 'The brain benders of aunties choice' which requires me to speak to Vigilant Hogarth in westport.

The problem lies with the fact i have already done Hogarth's quest 'The saga of the malfunctioning mechanicals' so when i go to speak to him in regard to moving his people to westport there is no dialogue option to begin 'The brain benders quest' and he keeps saying how he should change his mind on outsiders 

I cannot even start 'The brain benders' questline now it just says to speak to Hogarth

regards andrew

I've completed the robot quest, hejlping (Saga of the Malfunctioning Mechanicals), and now done all the -nice- things to help the citizens of Westport (no sabotage), it tells me to return to Vigilant Hogarth, but I can't initiate dialogue with him

yep, same, if i turn in the mech parts quest, he just says some repeating dialogue, no multiple choice conversation like before. I'd like to turn in the quest, and then also do the brainbender quest, but it seems bugged. Very annoying for completionists. I would prefer to not have to load up my last save from before i started the brainbender quest, like 10+ hours ago.
