Doctor Faustus was a medieval scientist who longed for power and forbidden knowledge. Joe's father is also a scientist whose research in the field of genetics is considered pioneering. He becomes the subject of a story by the Star Enquirer, a sleazy publication which calls him "the devil's doctor," and accuses him of Nazi-type experiments.
