To have spent years in this hell, with nothing but himself and the memories of his greatest failure and worst loss, it was easier to understand The Doctor's mindset, and his supposed idiocy.

It wasn't idiocy. It was madness. He had been driven insane by this place. While sympathy was still something she was bereft of in his case, her thirst to end his life as a means of justice was waning. In its stead was the feeling that killing him was a mercy. He had lost everything; and while his attempts to gain it back were condemned from the start, it was only then that she realized what he had suffered.

"It seems we were wrong about him," she intoned. Despite it only being them, her voice lowered to near a whisper. A byproduct of being in complete silence. "What I originally thought was idiocy is actually insanity. This place is Hell. That will drive anyone free of their wits." It spoke to his genius that he was even able to act still, and do all things he had accomplished thus far.

Her keen sense of observation picked up several buildings all around, and one in the direction of the time pool. That would be the site of their investigation. She had a feeling it was Capsule Corp, but only time would tell for sure.
Wilhelm nods.

“Hell. Yes, this is...hell. To Jinzi, able to...do anything, solve...any problem....a reminder of a failure..so absolute like this...would break him. I do not...think he even knows....who he used to be. Merely...a single task....to draw his attention. To focus...his madness upon. Fixing his mistake.”

Slowly the illumination around them reveals a building in the distance. It was cracked and pitted, most of it gone. No color other than greyed white.

It wasn’t Capsule Corp, it was too small. In fact it was the only thing around, but the faint CC logo was visible. Clearly one of the portable homes Capsule Corp sells.

The nexus is inside.
