- More specifically, it introduces his office, which he calls the Picked Pirates Tavern.
- Controneo says he's loved pirates since he was a kid, specifically citing Pirates of the Caribbean as a reason for that. Since he spends hours a day in an office, he designed it as a place he wants to spend that time.
- His office is completely decked out with various artifacts. He made a point to include things from multiple cultures, on the premise that pirates stole from everybody.

- Some of his artifacts are actually from the Golden Age of Piracy.

- Not everything in his office is pirate-themed. he also has a sculpture of Wart, an alien found inside Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge
