Olimar was on his way back from his latest treasure hunting expedition. His haul had been good, but he was still troubled. Treasure hunting had become something of an obsession for him as of late, and while he had been bringing home good money, his wife was not fond of him going on such dangerous expeditions when he did not have to.
At first, Olimar thought she was just overreacting, but after an increasing number of close calls, he was starting to agree. At this point, he could probably retire comfortably anyway, so why risk his life going after more treasure?
He came to the conclusion that neither the thrill nor the money were worth it. He would have to tell the president that he would not be going on anymore treasure runs. In fact, he was thinking about a vacation with his wife and kids.

The pilot's eyes went wide when he realized what was making that noise. Opening a secret compartment, he pulled out a circular communicator. Opening revealed a code black warning. Olimar gulped. He then got to work preparing a message to his family.
Once done with his message, he slowed his ship to a stop – it helped with Homebase's targeting. He gave the computer orders to resume course after he had left. He then entered his hold where his treasures were stored, and he then pressed the button to summon a portal. After a few minutes – they were likely busy with others when he signaled – a portal opened in the hold of the ship. It looked like the vacation would have to wait.
