The prisoner is described as carrying an "Axis IV Dissociative Disorder." In psychiatric diagnosis, psychiatric disorders fall under Axis I, personality disorders and mental retardation fall under Axis II, medical disorders fall under Axis III, a general summary of psychosocial stressors (eg. health problems, money problems, or family problems, and rated as None, Mild, Moderate, or Severe) fall under Axis IV, and the patient's Global Assessment of Function score (GAF: 0 to 100) falls under Axis V. Dissociative Disorder is an Axis I diagnosis.
Malcolm uses "¿Cuál es la punta de vivir?" as the Spanish translation of "What is the point of living?" However, "punta" only means "point" in Spanish in the sense of physical "peak" or "protuberance". The correct Spanish translation of "point" in the meaning of "sense" or "meaning" would be "sentido" -"¿Cuál es el sentido de vivir?" This stock phrase is most commonly rendered in Spanish as "¿Cuál es el sentido de la vida?" ("What is the meaning of life?"). Different words, both meaning "what" but used in different situations - "Cuál" would be the appropriate word in this question.
