Victor enlists Xenephon "Exxy" Clark, a young Tech thief, on a mission to break into S.T.A.R. Labs. Once inside Exxy learns that the Victor that appeared to him was an emergency hologram program that activated to bring help to the real Victor who had been deactivated and held prisoner by the Dr. Silas Stone doppelganger. Once activated, Victor and Exxy are confronted by S.T.A.R. Labs guards and the doppelganger, who reveals himself to be O.T.A.C., but who is O.T.A.C. and what is his connection to the real Silas Stone?
