* Also from ''Octo Expansion'' shown in the chatroom segments, [[spoiler:Cuttlefish drops the bombshell that Marina used to be a high-ranking engineer for the Octarians, before she heard Calamari Inkantation like Agent 8 did and realized that the Inklings weren't the monsters she thought they were. Even learning this, Pearl gives a twofold moment of Heartwarming: the first being that the infighting she and Marina do on ''Off the Hook'' is purely for show and that they're thick as thieves, and the second being that Pearl does not care in the slightest that Marina is of a difference race.]]

* Marie can be seen enjoying Off the Hook's concert from over her manhole at the end of the Splatoon 2 Direct, so it seems there's no animosity between the Squid Sisters and their Inkopolis Square counterparts. (She does think the Sisters' catchphase is better, though.)

** And Marina is using Octoling tech for ''good things'' - she helped make stages exclusive to Splatfests and Pearl is amazed and thinks the fact that she did is absolutely rad.

* One of the members of the new Off the Hook duo, Marina, happens to be an Octoling, leaving the possibility open that Inklings and Octolings might finally be on more friendly relations after a series of hostile wars between the two factions, the latest conflict included. [[spoiler:The second Sunken Scroll also implies that Marina is not alone in being an Octarian who wants better relations with the Inklings.]]
** Even if this wasn't the case, it's very likely that Pearl, regardless of everything that has went down between the two races, would consider Marina her best friend and would be more than willing to defend her from any potentially racist Inklings.
** It's also sweet in a meta sense to see how swiftly the majority of fans have come to embrace Off The Hook given how popular the Squid Sisters were in the last game. There was fan art of the pair ''within the hour'' of their introduction, and the fanbase's love for Marina despite Octolings being [[DemonicSpider Demonic Spiders]] in the last game is just the cherry on top.
** And Marina is using Octoling tech for ''good things'' - the "twilight zone" stage exclusive to Splatfests is an Octo Sphere, and Pearl is amazed that ''Marina helped make it'', and thinks the fact that she did is absolutely rad. This also implies that other Octolings helped make the stage as well!
* Hero Mode's final boss: [[spoiler:Marie starts singing "Tide Goes Out" to snap Callie out of hypnosis, and after successfully breaking her of the brainwashing, the two finally sing a new version of "Calamari Inkantation" after two years of being separated. Even after all is said and done, Marie is clearly grateful that Agent 4 helped her find her cousin.]]
