[[The Odds]] ([[Captain Evening (Reality Z-25 31-H)|Captain Evening]], [[Armstrong Fatbuckle]], [[Merv the Griffin]] and “[[Jenny Nowhere (Reality Z-25 31-H)|Jenny Nowhere]]”) are enlisted by the authorities to investigate. The group head to the latest bank to be “reverse-robbed”, where Jenny is able to use [[Professor Madison's device|“the Device”]] to detect “cosmic energy”. She is able to use the particles residue to [[shift]] the team to the current location of the one who left them there. | ||
She does so and the Odds find themselves in the sewers, where [[Armagedda]], sitting on a throne, is being asked by her henchmen about the precise aims of her plan. They overhear her explaining that, due to the vow she made to [[Mysto the Space-Wizard]] not to destroy the [[Earth]] using her cosmic powers, she has resorted to trying to leave society to destroy itself; with an incomplete understanding of economic sciences, she has determined that flooding the market with money created out of thin air seems like the best way to achieve this, and believes that it will in time cause the planet actually to blow up. | She does so and the Odds find themselves in the sewers, where [[Armagedda]], sitting on a throne, is being asked by her henchmen about the precise aims of her plan.
