While studying the PINpoint's inner workings in the hopes of finding a way to trace the missing Phoenix, Otto contemplates his own motivation for helping the lawyer and his friends, secretly worrying that his helpful behaviour is nothing more than a way to make himself feel like a 'better' person. Why else would an aging supervillain in such a tenuous situation take time off from work to chase red herrings and build gadgets with no real use on his own world?
The doctor's anguished navel-gazing is cut short by a ticking sound from a nearby console, a signal that the connection he and the others were desperately hoping for has been established. His own PINpoint displays the coordinates for a site on the Earth that Phoenix was last known to be on, and the nearest city center. Moments later, Novak's phone begins to ring.
