One day, a group of armed men dressed in law enforcement arrived and kidnapped Wintergreen where they kept him hostage for a year. He allowed himself to be caught thinking that Slade would rescue him and repeated the code phrase 'Kencilworth' in the hope that this would notify Deathstroke to free him. However, Slade never came as he was not aware that his old friend had been kidnapped with the world believing Wintergreen dead after a grave was erected with his name on it. Over the months, he entered into a hallucinatory state where he envisioned Slade arriving and freeing him only for him to awaken in the dark still trapped by his captors. (Deathstroke v4 #1)
