'''???''' is a grey-colored hand that, after midnight, reaches out of the toilet next to the reception door at the [[Stock Pot Inn]]. In return for a piece of paper (i.e. one of the [[Title Deeds|Deku Land Title Deeds]], [[Anju|Anju's]] letter to [[Kafei]], or [[Kafei|Express Mail]]), ??? will reward you with a [[Piece of Heart]].

In Oracle of Ages, in the past, ??? is another grey hand that needs toilet paper. If you give the [[Stationary]] to him, as part of a trading sequence, he will give you a [[Stink Bag]], (Gross...) and this will be needed to clear the sinuses of a Tokay Cook. You can torture him in various ways, such as putting seeds in the hole he dwells in.
