Hello! This is Gary Newsman with the whole BigNewsNow crew, here at the Forum of Humanity located in sunny Calgary, Canada where we are anxiously awaiting the first-ever appearance of-- can you believe this?-- humans from another dimension! And as I understand it, they are also in Calgary, but a different one! That's just crazy, isn't it Raj?

Sure is, Gary. Hey, that's some crowd gathered there out front. What's the estimate--we heard over six million. Is that right? That just blows the mind.

Haha, that it does, Raj. And blowing minds is what this event is all about. Isn’t that right, Jane?

That’s right, Gary. Representatives are here from the collected near-earths of the hyo-man-you-umuum—can you even imagine? What does that even mean? Is it a big club or something? Samantha?

Who the hell knows, Jane, but I’m sure we’ll find out soon enough. Meanwhile, for those of you unfamiliar with the Forum-- which I guess is everyone listening to us-- let’s take a short tour of the facility with Dirk Spintown. Take it away, Dirk!

Righto, Samantha. I’m standing in front of the great entrance to the Forum Humanuum, which reaches 120 feet at the highest arch--

That’s absolutely fascinating, Dirk, but we’re just receiving word that the assembly is about to convene, which means an announcement is only minutes away.

Brilliant observation, Gary. Let’s go upstairs now to the Great Hall of Satisfactory Agreements, where Secretary Bigg Honcho is about to speak. Shalamar?

Thanks, Raj. Yes, that is correct. Secretary Bigg Honcho Van Monk is walking up to the podium where he’s expected to give a brief two-hour speech welcoming all nations and nations-in-waiting to the most important moment in the history of mankind. Let’s go to Lady Jasmine Superiority at the podium.

Hey everybody! This is Lady J, kicking it at the center of the world right now, here with his most amazing and fabulous self, Bigg Honcho Van Monk!

Thank you, Lady Jasmine, and thank you to all that are here in person, as well as the billions watching from all over the world. Today, is the most important—

We are interrupting Honcho’s speech to cut to the live feed appearing behind us as we speak. Apparently, our guests have arrived early. What do you think, Maxwell, something to be concerned about?

Well, Fredo, seeing as this the first time we’ve been contacted by people from another universe, I would say it’s hard to guess...
