With the target over Ahab's shoulders, the recently incorporated Russian interpreter demonstrated his effectiveness translating the man's monologue.

"That prosthetic... you are wearing one of my creations, my masterpiece. My specialty is not humdrum mechanics. My field is bionics. I create hybrids of organisms and artifacts. You can think of that prosthetic as a "bionic arm." I made countless artificial limbs in the service of the Motherland. Many of them I presented to the Kremlin. And this is the thanks I get.

"So that's the whining source, eh? I have other plans for him." Interrupted Ocelot.

Venom used Fulton and sent the puppy to Mother Base. A helicopter –not Pequod– picked him up. It extended its Fulton recovery arm. And luckily for everyone –and as The Master mentioned, the puppy was "a tough little guy" and could bear the shock of the extraction.

There was one thing that bothered Snake while waiting for Pequod: He couldn't help noticing how this Op resembled the infamous "Virtuous Mission" in which Naked Snake failed to rescue Nikolai Sokolov, Shagohod's creator.

He wondered what happened to the man, or rather, whether he survived after being recruited by Roy Campbell during the San Hieronymo Incident. The last he knew about Nikolai was thanks to his advice via radio to disable Metal Gear.
