Plot
When an unspecified audience “tune in” to the “frequency” of the Cupid Homeworld, Doctor Sigma takes it upon himself to give an impromptu lecture on the nature of the Multiverse and interdimensional travel. As he runs out of time and is forced to end the talk, he invites his audience to stick around and read through some of the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids' archives.
Worldbuilding
Jenny Everywhere
- A version of Jenny Everywhere is seen using the Infinite to shift from one universe to the next. She has blue hair, wears goggles with green lenses, a brown jacket, denim pants, red-and-white shoes and a blue scarf.
- It is mentioned that the Infinite is not accessible to any other being in the Multiverse.
Laura Drake
- Three versions of Laura Drake are shown to illustrate the point that any given person has “an infinity of counterparts out there… with varying degrees of similarity between them!”. All three are in the same setting, standing in front of a cityscape and an Atomium-like structure. The central one has a standard human colour scheme, while the leftmost one has green skin and hair and the rightmost one is in grayscale.
Other
- Rifts are normally rare. They are also “unpredictable” and “hard to control”.
