Five, Maddie and Freddy was in the White Buffalo Suite looking at the symbols at the door while Diego was looking for Stan.

Diego and Lila have told Maddie, Five and Freddy that they had being on the other side of the door to look for Stan.

They told them that the place was like the hotel but empty. They told them that they rang a bell on the counter where after that they were attacked by something that cut off two of Diego's fingers. Lucky both Lila and Diego managed to get out where after they witness Stan being Kugelblitzed.

"What the hell are you doing?" Lila shouted at Diego as she entered the White Buffalo Suite "Stanley is gone! We need to face this!" she said "Just check the chimney" Diego said "He's not in the bloody chimney! He's been Kugelblitzed!" Lila said "Whose fault is that, huh? You're the one that brought him here!" Diego said.

"Congratulations. You're both mildly terrible parent" Five said "Can we focus? Come on. How did this thing open before?" Maddie asked "I don't know. It was already kinds open" Diego said as he kept searching for Stan.

"'Already kinda open'" Freddy said "Diego, you should have been an engineer. It's a lost opportunity" Five said as Diego looked in the chimney "Why'd you wanna go in there anyway? It's just sushi and death" Lila said "When we met future me in the Commission bunker, I warned myself about Oblivion. Now, Pogo told M and I--" Five said but Diego cut him off "Wait, whoa, whoa. Pogo's alive?" he asked "Different Pogo, but yes" Maddie said.

"The monkey said Dad spent years training the Sparrows for some kind of super-secret mission into..." Five said as he pointed on the door "Oblivion?" Lila said and Five clapped his hands together "So, M and I come back here and find that you two sentient STDs have actually been in there" he said before he put his hands in his pocket "Everything's leading to Oblivion. So we have to go in there" he said.

"Hell no! Not happening" Diego said "No way! We barely got out alive" Lila said "Yeah? So what? This is about more than just you two" Five said "Says the guy with all his fingers" Diego said before he lifted up his left hand where bandages was around where he was missing two of his fingers "I didn't get this by giving a mummy a hand job, all right. I went in there, and I lost my fingers to do this with...with a knife and on a chain" he said.

"Hey, look. Diego might be 90% moron and 10% pelvic thrusts, but he's right about Oblivion, okay. We're not just gonna waltz back in there just because you say so" Lila said.

"Good. Because you're coming with us" Luther said as him and Sloane entered the room "This should be interesting" Five said "Where to?" Maddie asked "Sparrow Academy. The world's ending, so I think it's time we put our petty bullshit aside and work together on this Kugelblitz" Luther said "Yeah? Or what?" Diego asked "Or Stanley won't be the last of us to disappear" Lila said and Diego looked at her "Come on" she said.
