He ignores it and thinks he's just a little crazy, but when he tries to charge his power battery, it disappears along with the rest of the base. He searches and finds it where it should be and then goes to his room to charge his ring only to find that it's gone. Meanwhile, Pieface is fixing his landlady's TV aerial but as he does, he receives a message about how the Qwardians had tricked Green Lantern into giving the location to his power battery by making a holographic projection of it and having him enter it and try to charge his ring.

After getting past the weapons, Hal follows his battery's radiation trail but realizes it's in a yellow barrier he cannot penetrate. But he uses his ring to try to find a small opening somewhere in the barrier, and as he finds it, he destroys the barrier from the inside as it is not yellow inside. Afterwards, he tries to charge his ring but realizes he cannot charge it in the Anti-Matter universe. Using the last of his power remaining, he creates a false image of himself which the Qwardians...
