In Knothole, Sonic is denied his request by the Knothole Council, consisting of Sally, Antoine, Bunnie and Rotor. Sonic spins in frustration before explaining his perfect plan one more time: Sonic will allow Dr. Robotnik to roboticize him while secretly using one of Rotor's Neuro-Overrider devices to keep his free will and then, with an enhanced robotic body, destroy Robotropolis for good. Rotor points out that Sally tried the same plan and they all nearly perished. Bunnie begins to interject, pointing out her own half-roboticized body gives her more knowledge on the subject than the rest of the group, but Sally cuts the conversation short and declares that the plan was rejected unanimously. Sonic angrily walks away and Antoine, observing Sonic's bad attitude, suggests monitoring him. Sall
