While Fong gives Wei medical care, Ku was recovered by Darkie before Wei's attempted search. They also verbally abused him, referring to him as a "lame darkie". He was also known as "Darkie Peters". A new cover was created by Darkie. "I'd rather be a darkie than a Tim". It is not clear exactly where Bedell-Sivright picked up the nickname "Darkie". Additional common names used for the kitefin shark include black shark and darkie Charlie. Wei and Darkie escape from prison to meet with Po in Hong Kong.
