Go To

Driven by his latest conspiracy theory, Angus stumbles in the secret leves of Ducklair Tower and causes a malfunction which forces Paperinik to manually solve the problem... however, things take an interesting turn when Camera 9, Stephan Vladuck, notices the hero and decides to follow him in his mission...


  • Badass Normal: Stephan Vladuck so far looked like an unassuming, quiet cameraman... in this episode he gets to shine alongside PK and even takes on a hi-tech tank as if it was nothing.
  • A Day in the Limelight: For Camera 9, a.k.a. Stephan Vladuck, famous reporter.
  • Hidden Depths: We get to see much more of Stephan in this issue.
  • Humiliation Conga: Angus is almost attacked by the security drones, is terrified by PK and then treated by a fraud by his colleagues, especially when he tries to explains himself... only to realize that he ends up sounding quite implausible, claiming that PK apparently threw him off the roof of the 150 stories-tall Ducklair Tower.
  • Jerkass Has a Point: While Angus is... well, Angus, he rightfully points out that Ducklair left incredibly dangerous weapons hidden underground and they could cause enormous damage in the wrong hands.
  • Latex Perfection: Halfway through, Angus jumps to the conclusion that Ducklair is actually Paperinik... though when he realise that they look different, he rationalize that he must be wearing a special mask.
  • One Password Attempt Ever: When Angus tries getting evidence of Ducklair's crimes from a console, not only does the keyboard cover slam shut after he enters an incorrect code, but the system also sics Attack Drones on him.
  • O.O.C. Is Serious Business: When Angus ends his daily service and doesn't speaks ill of Paperinik, his colleagues are worried and asks him if he's feeling fine.
  • Our Centaurs Are Different: Near the end Angus ends up using a mecha-suit shaped as a centaur, one of Ducklair's many inventions.
  • Secret-Keeper: By the end of the issue, Stephan knows of the secret dungeons under Ducklair Tower and of One.
  • Terror Hero: At the end, Paperinik uses smokes, holograms and sheer old intimidation to scare Angus out of his mind.
  • Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Stephan is surprisingly restrained at the sight of the underground levels, and is not too surprised by One, just asking if he's an alien (due to his green appearence).
  • It Was Here, I Swear!: Angus was able to access the secret level by operating a hidden switch in a closet. At the end of the issue, when he tries to prove his story, One has sealed the entrance with bricks.
