Plot
After Jenny Everywhere materialises in a new universe in a cutting-edge mobile home by the seaside, she thinks she's found peace at last — only to happen upon the Nommo, an ambassador from the Sirius star system who seeks to bring Enlightenment to mankind. Realising the Nommo has no clue about how to go about doing this in a way that will avoid getting him crucified by a mob, Jenny decides to give him some pointers.
