The errant code is only executed for the watch window.

Don't do much C++ programming, eh? :-)

A pointer is a way of saying "I'm not the actual value of your variable, but I can show you where in memory you can find the actual value." IOW, it "points" you to where the value lives. "Dereferrencing" it means you get the actual value stored in the memory the pointer points to. If it's uninitialized, it's going to point to random memory, which is a very bad thing.
