At school, Vika gives Ethan the key and security code to the Prometheus Comix building because she is worried about Inkling. Vika explains about Blotter and describes how Karl is starving Inkling and threatening to feed him to Blotter. Vika is sure that Blotter would eat Inkling. She asks Ethan to rescue him, and he agrees. Vika tells Ethan that Inkling is in the supply room and asks him to return the key tomorrow. Ethan thanks Vika. He then shares his rescue plan with Soren, who agrees to help.

At the Prometheus Comix office, Inkling wonders when Blotter will eat him. He tries to escape, but Blotter, who is hungry, tries to get to him, by crashing against his tank. He gets closer to the top with each attempt. Meanwhile, Ethan and Soren sneak into the office building, wondering if Vika has set them up, but Ethan is optimistic. They find the supply room but no sign of Inkling. Soren picks the lock on a metal cabinet, and inside are two fish tanks containing Inkling and Blotter. Both splotches claim to be Inkling, so Ethan tests them by asking his cat’s name.
