Plot
In the Infinite, Jenny Everywhere tells an unseen audience about the Gevity™ drink brand. To prove this, she first shifts to 31 Spooner Street in one universe, presenting the drink to Peter Griffin, who states that he "got [his] money's worth".
Jenny then shifts to a hospital in another universe, where she meets another Jenny Everywhere, with the first Jenny asking why the other Jenny's so sad. The sad Jenny responds that she's just lost a good friend, but the promoting Jenny states that the sad Jenny is sad because she doesn't know the angelic taste of Gevity™. In spite of the other Jenny's objection to this statement, the promoting Jenny hands a can of Gevity™ to the sad Jenny, who drinks it. She simply finds it "alright", but the other Jenny claims that Gevity™ has significantly improved the other Jenny's mood. Jenny sings a rhyme and tells an unseen audience to drink Gevity™.
In another universe, Cookieboy 2005 posts a comic, part of a series, to ComicFury, having been paid a "fair sum" of money by a sponsor.
