In the basement of his house, a hobby psychologist runs the pirate station Nighthawk . Every evening he goes "On Air" as Doc Rock .

With quotes from Sigmund Freud and other quatrains, he provokes Doc Rock and tries to get him to "play along". He offers to save the life of his next victim if he admits that he is even just a "monster". After all, everyone has buried a "corpse in the cellar". Get Doc Rock to tell him what's the worst thing he's ever done.
In the hope of actually saving the young woman whom the night slayer is audibly tormenting, he confesses to having hit someone and not stopped. The accident victim has been in a wheelchair ever since. The night slayer is not yet satisfied with the answer and he urges him on.
