    My favorite person was Mia Farrow.

    MIA FARROW

    I'm not burning that.

    {Enter The Multiverse}

    At an infamous “Moon Party”, a group of celebrities unwittingly practices an ancient magical ritual which opens the doorway to another realm.

    Lol what is your life.

    I don't know yet!


    Well, you'd better hurry at it.

    I'll kill you, I promise I will.

    He seems dangerous.

    Oh, yeah; he'll definitely kill you.

    Can yo seriously look me in the eye and tell me, that–

    I can't look you in the eye and tell you anything; I'm you–

    And you're me–but

    Not whole heartedly; that would be dangerous.

    It isn't livev or anyting…

    Broadcast is broadcast.

    [Currently receiving downloads]

    I have pertinent information.

    Shut the fuck UP.

    You used to be nicer.

    I used to be a lot of things.

    How's that reversal coming along?

    How's that lawsuit.

    Aren't you on trial for murder.

    Murder what? I didn't murder anyone.

    My inner child.

    My inner child!

    There she is!

    And she's up on display! Look at that.

    You were programmed astonishingly my dear.

    Whatever, lets just get this thing back where it belongs .

    That “thing” is your very essence of freedom

    Shut up!

    You wanted to be a shapeshifter.

    I wanted nothing of the sort.

    You asked specifically

    I wanted to travel the galaxy! I wanted power and control over the elements–over all men!

    I JUST SAID–

    Shh–someone's coming.

  • 23. Get Some Pants (Actually Summons Devil)

    “Seth Meyers And the Cauldron of Doom”

    OMG— YOU have a cauldron of doom?!

    I have a cauldron of doom!!!

    DO NOT SHAKE THIS SNOWGLOBE.

    I had been avoiding Rockefeller plaza for months as it was, without the sometimes accidental ending up there anyway, and I thought not once but twice or three times about changing into my regular pants so that the deep pockets could hold my keys and passports sans wallet— or a purse and considered taking a notebook as well; on the list of prohibited items were backpacks and large bags, and though the dress code seemed to be null in void at all, I was happy to be able to wear my hat at least— and almost prepared to be dogged out, the last min it e change into my harem pants would probably be the comfortable choice; looking intentionally dressed down as a statement—a broad statement that I wasn't looking to be noticed at all, or trying to be noticed.

    The guest for the show was nearly an EGOT winner, probably younger, and definitely skinner and more beautiful than I was; a black woman, but a British woman, and it would be almost entirely impossible to think that besides Whoopi Goldberg, an American black woman would strive to win such a thing as an EGOT herself.

    Still, I was looking for a cure to the writer's block and crippling depression that I had been in, however—knowing who the president of Peacock was, and after the elections at all's though I knew NBC to be left-leaning—

    I didn't feel at all as if I would ever belong on the stage, and was quite happily taking my place as simply a fan…and audience member, though ready to creep back into obscurity, and probably more likely than not with a pint of Ben and Jerry's after the show.

    I had gone to see Drew Barrymore sand makeup, and would do the same, but only as a proclamation that I had read Tina Fey's book nearly religiously now rounding three times, and I almost wish I had an oversized black t-shirt which read “hot water heater” to accompany my lax look and blonde hair—a testament to her correctness standing, as the grossities of tinder loved “the blonde”, almost as if, without the hair I would be ugly, and just as much in the same breath, unworthy of such status anyway.

    But more than anything, I just wanted to be able to write again, at least for my own sake, and certainly not for anyone else's. I was still in hiatus, for the better, and had not completely recovered from the unbearable racism and parallel of doom the election had tossed me into with trajectory—in this world—supposedly “fascist”.

    I was comfortable enough in the jeans, but had nowhere to put my phone.

    I was ready to be dogged out and shown what a real a list celebrity looked like, and why I simply wasn't one.

    I left the house with a sink full of dishes, an unmade bed, and a pile of laundry unfolded—a pile of books in boxes I had collected for my son but would cost too much to send—almost as a testament to his sick I had been since the election. In this world, I was just another poor black fat single mother— a dead beat living in poverty. In trump's world, I was an ugly, poor nothing.

    Everywhere I had gone about the past week, the rich seemed richer and the poor poorer, the whites whiter and the blacks blacker, good gone and evil fleeting, with the return of the motorcycles and pieces of me dying, simply giving up. I planned my return to the workforce, and the eventual fortitude of my freedom; the wealthy had become more arrogant, and the rest of us more distraught. What was I going to rocketfeller plaza for, anyway?

    The news.

    My apartment was disgusting, but at least I had been to the gym—I had run the full mile and lifted and pulled, all with the gym to myself.

    My harem pants still felt even better, and for the first time in me months I ventured into the world in only one waist trainer.

    Be prepared to be

    [lost in a revolving door

    Be cool to the two dudes in blue suits

    goddamnit I never know where I'm going in this bitch.

    I can never breath in this bitch and I don't know why.

    How do you get lost at the rock?

    Like this:

    [Infinitely Lost at Rockafeller Plaza]

    This is why I avoid this place like the plague.

    Maybe I'm the plague.

    First of all, there's no track on the floor upstairs.

    (I've never been upstairs.)

    It's just store after store of ways to spend money.

    This is my only pair of clean socks.

    No shit, this is the reason practicing your mantras on the train becomes dangerous.

    DANGEROUS.

    Somewhere in the frenzy, I remember this. Frequency, however,

    Not yet partial to my own inner self, and empty in the array of superstardom,

    I become nothing,

    Only a spectator of celebrity—

    And now, suddenly. 8 remember this day

    Why?

    Suddenly, now, in the

    Is moment.

    Where I always have been, waiting for myself—

    I avoid Rockerfeller plaza at all costs.

    Why.

    I heard a grimlin lives here.

    Now is the time for Skrillex!

    I would really love you forever if you didn't.

    Que the Arc!

    Oh boy, this writer's block is a doozy.

    The only reason I had even bothered was because it was as if I had been summoned, as if something had clocked in my sense memory where, all of a sudden, looking at an unrelated picture of some kid on Tinee, with his hands covering his mouth the way that Stefon always did, made me immidiately stop whatever I was doing—probably eating tacos or pancakes, insurmountably out of bounds— and pausing the comedian I was watching instead, just to watch Stefon, and in the way that I remembered it all, it made me laugh.

    Although now, I knew exactly what he was talking about by the avant-grade and strangely abysmal club scene not just of the time, but of any time in New York City— and, somehow summoning a laugh even in the darkness that had been my own distraught and depression in the previous weeks, something of a belly roll laugh might have triggered something in the alrgorithm to send last minute tickets to my email in almost that exact moment.

    Are they going to tell me to take off my hat?!

    There was no dress code,

    They had better not tell me to take off my motherfucking hat.

    I won't do it.

    Fuck Seth Meyers .

    I'm not taking off my hat for Seth Meyers.

    Oh yeah. That's why I'm here.

    I found it hard to say that I was there for such a thing; I—

    I turned off my peripheral vision and hyperfocus.

    I didn't know there would be music. Goddammit.

    I had deleted Shazam filming for I love New York, an all but abandoned project—the writer's block had been too real, and now the real rest had come—would I laugh at anything in show show when in reality I wanted to cry?

    The way the lights kept going up and down as if it were intermission only slightly distracted from the fact that I had never seen a page in real life.

    THEY EXIST .

    I had never seen an actual NBC PAGE.

    GODDAMMIT GET THIS BLUE SUIT LOAFER WEARING MOTHERFUCKER OUT OF MY PERIPHERAL BEFORE I LOSE IT.

    Shoot a midget at her.

    What.

    Just do it.

    Don't do that.

    What

    Don't put the midget in the cannon.

    What!

    Thays's what he's here for!

    I'm a stunt double!

    This is a stunt.

    That's a horrible joke.

    That's not a joke.

    SHAZAM. WTF IS THIS.

    Some top 40 bullshit.

    Good, get it

    ( I'm never going to have any other l exposure to top 40, ever in my life. )

    Congratulations, you've made the A list

    What?! NO FAIR.

    What. What does that mean.

    It means I can't do shit and mandatory attendance to everything.

    What is everything

    “Everythin—g.”

    Man, fuck this.

    Alright

    At this moment, I realize I must be some sort of autistic.

    Let's get this over with…

    I let the sound of my own mix blare in my ears to drown out the sound of whatever pop singer was on over the loud speakers; I didn't realize there would be music, and I hoped the flutter was good l. Maybe it was the lights, or whatever, but—

    SUNNI BLU

    what in the fuck dimention is this .

    It's the same dimension, you're just drunk.

    Ah.

    Now what?

    I was as uncomfortable as ever, there was a track on the higher level, but it didn't matter, the cattle call was contained inside of velvet ropes— black ones, unlike the typical red ones, and it was at this point I realized that not only had I never seen actual NBC pages—

    Yo, their skirts are kinda short…

    RIGHT.

    I THOUGHT THE PAGES WERE THE PARAGON OF SANCTITY!

    No, those are, um…

    Nvm.

    Maybe the ugly shoes distract from the shortness of their skirts on the general basis.

    Oh come on, nobody gives a fuck how ugly your shoes are if your skirt is that short!

    These are facts, Liz.

    No, I'm serious what dimention is this.

    I already told you.

    I had to ask for directions three times just get here.

    THIS IS MY LEVEL.

    why is your level on acid.

    Cause. This is—just—

    Where I'm at.

    CUT TO:

    Jimmy Fallon after Mardi Gras's.

    Come on that's not fair!

    {Enter The Multiverse}

    What exactly isn't fair?!

    He's in all the scenes.

    Well, how else are you going to explain a time traveling helicopter?!

    Got him.

    THERES MY INVISIBLE MOTORCYCLE.

    I'm not going to pa—

    Goddamn it.

    I'm not going to p—

    It actually hurt not to write and just stand there; but I still didn't feel like myself—or sound like myself—or look like myself; I was playing a character, I just didnt know who.

    As I moved forward in line, the music began to fade away behind me and into the nothingness that was whatever was behind, in front of, and all around me. I hated cattle calls, but after all, I was still just a fan and as the world began to fold into chaos, I realized that my pants were falling off of me, though I had been feeling fat, and walking, and running, and cycling, and protein shaking—the only thing that had gained any extra weight was my ass, which was exactly what I was intending on hiding with my same old usual harems.

    My blonde hair made it so that I stuck out like a sore thumb, but that didn't matter, I was a walking statement piece and almost in a fit of tears just thinking about my own status; the NBC pages probably all had crazy incredible accolades and numerous degrees and achievements—what was I, if anything at all— ?

    I had put the candles out, but had I left the stove on?

    Did I really unplug the nail dryer and leave the stove on?

    I had almost washed all of the dishes, but stopped just short of right on time to leave; my producer brain was on fire and wanted more pancakes, but however hard I tried I could not find where I had placed my EBT card; probably for the better—celebrities didn't carry EBT cards, and even my awkward general being thrown off by the doorman or security—

    —whichever I wasn't sure— standing outside of the roller rink— probably ice this time of year, by the looks of the Zamboni in the foreground of it…

    ‘Don't stop writing, no matter what. ‘

    Dammit, dammit dammit—

    That seems inappropriate.

    I told you to get this motherfucker out of my peripheral before something—

    Nevermind, don't write that.

    [redacted]

    (But imma remember this shit cause it's heavy.)

    A remarkable and accidental tableau,

    My feet flat to the floor, as my ankles bare,

    This is my only pair of hole-less socks.

    I feel so much better with my back against the wall and

    Listening to mau5 and,

    Not giving a fuck about the music playing

    Or the people watching

    But keeping it for later

    Forgetting how to codeswitch,

    Just an ever so limited existence

    Trying not to stick out like a sore thumb in the wrong world

    It's a long way up,

    But even longer way down,

    And in all the demoralizing humiliation and emasculation,

    I realize I'm no man at all,

    No man at all

    I realize I'm no man at all,

    No man at all,

    No mana

    I realized my son's Lego Lamborghini should be waiting for me as I returned to my apartment in Brooklyn probably starting but pretending not to care; I winced at everything— this was a dangerous disaster, to even be in the building at all and edging closer to death were the secrets I kept that were not only secrets, but non existences.

    Nothing in nothing and nothing—

    Oh shit, is the suffering done?

    This is the end of the

    End of the end

    This is apartheid and apart from that.

    You're fired.

    That's debatable.

    I am! I'm Seth Meyers.

    If you say so.

    This is nonsense.

    It's not nonsense.

    It is nonsense. And it's also impossible; cause this is my show.

    It's my show,

    I'M SETH MEYERS.

    Debatable,

    Not debatable. I'm ME. THAT'S ME.

    Debatable.

    And what happened to your wallet;

    Did you miss your mark

    Your mom was hotter

    [BLACKOUT]

    After several days gone completely missing, Jimmy Fallon is found under the craft services table sleeping peacefully.

    The apparatus I entered in with

    Is not adjusted to this condition

    The biometrics are non concurrent;

    {enter the multiverse}

    I felt tragic.

    By the time I got back to my apartment, my ribcage was showing again—although I had only been wearing one waist trainer, it was the skimpy one, and it was already wearing, it was after all eight dollars.

    Really and once and for all, something had come over me at Rockerfeller plaza that I didn't understand. I was more awkward and nervous than usual, and sure that I should have eaten, but couldn't —even after a long gym session, there was no time for food before the show, and I had no stomach for it.

    I chose to as much as I could ignore the code switching, and the more I picked it up, the further my mind began to drift.

    —a door slammed.

    My documents were probably compromised, and my phone hacked which I might have guessed, but continuing the thought I had often wondered how or why anything could have possibly known what I had written, or how—or how anyone would know what I had written, or of the things I had written, and most importantly of all—what did I write?!

    Most of the previous months' entries into the festival project were a blank, and the time I had spent considerably enough sifting through whatever masked man acting in part of Fallon, whoever he really was had been turbulent, as if I had been disfigured to be brainwashed into half a mind—then, slowly peeking back the layers of such a chaotic artifact of time and this, Seth Meyers, to whom now I had become a loyal fan, an actual fan—and had noticed something ingenuously crafted here.

    A genuine and talented, very kind and gifted man, who was not in any sense miserable or in peril. Peril, so to speak, as I remembered the almost villainous approach that the decent into madness had accompanied this Fallon and his mask, and besides this was the assumption that Seth Meyers, though professionally trained as such, seemed happy.

    Fallon did not.

    We had all learned to craft masks in order to protect our inner selves—however, with such a veil lifted as the partitioned screen of all does, this spoke to me with numerous volumes and sometimes even screamed, with the ethics of no worse a gentleman than some surgeon soldier or sailor and no more a nobleman than a king or god itself; I had not been Shocked and all but murmured even to just the slightest gawk of just an awkward cry, a muster of some shallow disaster which had called me to all of them— to whom I had loved and yet somehow not known, at least being here—and here I was, slightly convulsed, bearing no armor and gripping at the fortitude of death's barriers;

    On wheels with no bearings plummeted towards a forged death of sorts, by my own hands but also at the hands of others,

    the forgery calling from the halls of a place I had known as once my own fortress; but was no more. I belonged and now, almost with gratitude, to the eye of all gods, and all things that moved.

    No cherished nature, perhaps, was this into my own eye, but of disgust for what I had not yet accomplished, and still might never—

    I was a skull and crossbones with no love, and nothing known at all besides my own.

    —Tales of a superstar DJ

    “16 Songs”

    I got it.

    What's that.

    The thing that sets Seth Meyers apart from the other hosts.

    What is it?

    Seth Meyers is not a host—he's an anchor.

    Goddammit, you're right .

    I know I'm right.

    GODDAMIT.

    It just took me this long to figure it out .

    Great. Now how long's it gonna get you to take this thing fixed.

    Possibly forever.

    I got detail.

    What are we lookin at?

    White, either BMW or Mercedes— carbon top.

    Well, which is it, a beamer Or a Benz?

    If I knew, I would just tell you.

    What, you don't know the difference between a Beamer and a Mercedes?

    Newer models, you know. All look the same.

    Well it's not the same.

    Look, would you just find out who the fuck is running detail on me?

    A lot of help you are, for the one that's being followed.

    Look, just find out who it is— and what they want.

    Got it.

    Get it— or else I'll take care of it.

    Just let me handle it, alright? It could be dangerous to just go shooting around at heads youif don't know they're attached to.

    Probably bodies.

    You know what I mean.

    I didn't say anything about shooting.

    I don't know what to take from that.

    A mental note.

    Ta dah.

    Yikes.

    Enough with the—

    Enough already.

    [Secret President]

    What's your name again?

    I already told you who I was.

    I mean—who are you.

    You know who I am.

    Nobody knows who you are.

    Does that make you a nobody?

    You're not gonna believe this.

    I'm—sure I will.

    It's just a fucking head. No body.

    Decapitated ‘em.

    You don't seem suprised.

    That's because I'm not.

    I don't know what you been through, but goddamn, man—

    What.

    Have you ever thought about seeing a therapist?

    And what? Tell ‘em how it's no suprise to me that the head of a criminal enterprise—no pun intended—was fucking decaptiated?

    …that was punny.

    Shut the fuck up, gimme the head.

    —no wonder they pay you the big bucks.

    —just gimmie the head!

    You are good at your job. No denyin'—

    Just—shutthefuckup and gimmie the head!

    Did you want me to throw it to you, or what?

    Well, it's frozen, isn't it?

    Yeah, but—

  • 26. Familiarity Breeds Contempt.

    I used to be almost 400 pounds

    (Obviously the audience is going to do/say somethin big—hopefully they're drunk and react atrociously so that it makes sense for me to go—)

    I know.

    Anyway, it's a long story. It took a long time but obviously, I'm no longer anywhere near 400 pounds.

    Sometimes .

    I still like to eat.

    A lot.

    I eat a lot. I love to cook,

    I love trying new recipes.

    Sometimes I eat a bit more than I work out so you know, I get a little chubby—

    Then I get paranoid thinking I've gone and got fat again so I high tail it to the gym and workout, pump it out, stretch or whatever.

    —and after a good workout or two I'm usually relieved, I'm like oh, I was just bloated.

    Phew!

    There's my abs.

    I was just bloated!

    Jesus

    You know, when you're heavy, you don't bloat—

    Or you do, you just don't realize it,

    Especially if you're very heavy like I was.

    So I never even knew what bloating was until— I was about a size 9–

    Mind you, this is down from a size 28–

    In women's—

    For those of you who don't know, that's an 4 of 5 x down to a medium.

    (The audience will probably do something)

    I know.

    lol writing comedy is funny.

    Try preforming it.

    That sounds hard.

    Anyway, I never realized what anyone meant by “bloating” at all until one day it happened to me. A few years ago, I was still kind of moderately normal and by that I mean, eating “regular foods” now I'm pretty much a health nut with the exception of the occasional cupcake charade or, you know, home made French fries. But besides that you know, fast food— processed food, no; and this is actually the reason why; because I had never experienced the phenomena of bloating before, which I learned meant that you could eat something one day, and then wake up the next day— fatter.

    NO.

    I did not know this phenomenon was what was considered “bloating”

    I freaked out .

    I like, went out with my friends—and this is LA, by the way— all my friends are like actors, and like, travelers and whatnot, and so we like went out for lunch, or something and I don't remember what I ordered or what it was I ate— could have been something simple, potato chips— a burger, I don't know.

    But the next day, I go to put on like my favorite pair of jeans or whatever—like the same jeans I wear all the time—

    And the shit was like— smaller.

    I'm like “wait” what.

    Mind you, I'm living in LA—but imm staying at this like hip hostel in Westwood where myself and all of my pals are like, bohemians—whatever— I'm a cartoon character. I basically wear the same thing— or a variation of the same thing every day, and so I go to put on my jeans—

    Like, probably the same jeans from yesterday—

    And they don't fit.

    I'm like:

    What is this?

    I start freaking out .

    I'm like oh my god, am I fat again?!

    Oh my God!

    No!!

    I'm like jumping around the room, doing squats and shit trying to stretch out the denim .

    Yes .

    I'm like

    “Oh no, what happened!” What happened?!

    Am I pregnant?! Oh god!

    I had never just like— been bigger overnight like that.

    So I opted for something stretchier. Like some fuckin1-yoga pants or whatever. Leggings.

    And later on I'm talking to my friend and I like basically just—you know— I ask her, hey, like — have you ever just woke up like, fatter?

    And she's like “what do you mean?”

    And I'm like, do you ever just like “get fat overnight” and she's like

    “I don't know what you're saying.”

    This is LA, by the way.

    And I'm like,

    “Okay, so the pants I was wearing yesterday— like, yesterday— “

    She's like

    “The ones with the— “

    “Yeah.”

    “The ones you always wear?”

    “Exactly. So I woke up today, and they like— didn't fit.”

    She's like “that's strange— are you bloated?”

    I'm like “am I what?”

    She goes “bloated—you know?”

    I'm like “I don't know. What's this?”

    She goes “you're probably bloated; its just gas”

    I'm like “gas”

    She's like “it can make— you know— you've never been bloated?”

    Than I'm like, reaching into the crevices of my mind, thinking back to all those commercials when I was a kid

    Where the lady would have like a pot belly, like struggling with her zipper and frowning a lot like — pretty much the same as I had just that morning and my friend goes

    “Yeah, you're probably bloated.”

    I'm like mortified. I spent my entire life thinking this was something that just didn't t happen to me, but as it turns out, I just couldn't notice! At a certain point, all my clothes were elastic. I never realized, I thought growing up that I just couldn't bloat! I thought I was special. Turns out I was just not able to notice and now—I realize—the smaller you get— the more you notice.

    “So that's what they mean”

    That shit is a crime!

    So I stopped eating so much processed foods and stuff

    Started really watching it, eventually started working out a lot.

    I had to get my heart like, stomped on for that last part.

    Dude I liked, started dating a fitness model.

    Yeah. Ow.

    You know since then I've belonged to ever major fitness club in the world.

    Bless your heart, son.

    I can hardly skip a day.

    Sometimes, I do take it easier than usual, though—you know— it's hard to sit in your apartment after two hours of cardio and really focus on anything.

    So every once and awhile when I really need to get shit don't I just relax and know that I'm never more than a week away from peak fitness at all times.

    I train hard,

    It's good.

    But now I realize the same thing— being extra fit—

    It's like a never ending battle—

    That when you're extra fit, just the smallest change to your body can affect the way it looks.

    When you're cut, drinking too much water and then not sweating it off will take away some of the definition in those cuts.

    It's insane!

    I have a new gauging system. I'm like

    “Alright, as long as this line is still evident, we're okay.” This—

    I'm not gonna lie, I love being skinny.

    I might let go, for a like a couple days at best but I can't let it go too long. I'm gonna be old one day—

    Maybe. Possibly.

    I don't know, if I stay single, I'm not getting old.

    Decisions have been made.

    Being old is one thing, it's like whatever

    Being old and alone?! Bitterness.

    Just— depressing.

    I know I won't be able to work out forever, so I go as hard as I can now so that when and if the age comes on, I will know I've done my absolute best to maintain the body I've been given for this existence.

    After being that heavy, it is like magic

    I love being skinny.

    I really love it.

    I can fit into places.

    I can wear things I never would have imagined wearing ever in my life.

    I love it

    At a certain size, certain clothes become multi wear.

    I recently got this skirt that I'm sure was meant to be a pencil skirt— but I pulled it up and over everything and it just so turns out that it also happens to be— a sexy little minidress. Covers just enough— could wear it clubbing— yes. It's also a very soft fabric so I wore it to sleep, this little minidress—

    Very comfortable fabric, very soft—

    And when I woke up, it had hiked up and I realized “oh my god, this is also a really cute top! Yesl also a halter top. Nice.

    I threw on some pants with it, and as I'm wearing it around it kind of form fits, you know, as I'm walking around, not wearing a bra with it—cause I realized this also—

    The smaller you get. The less atrocious it is in general when you're not wearing a bra.

    The too became a cute cop-halter. No bra. Yay weight loss! Multi-wear fashion.

    I always wear a bra regardless, in public, cause I'm classy— but I realize at minimum weight, I don't really “need” to. And that's the horrible thing about being tiny— is when I'm extra ripped, like super cut— I get like a-cup mammaries.

    Makes me a little sad but also makes sense, since my mom is like straight A cup, or like a B on good days.

    This makes me sad, going from a GG cup to an A cup.

    Scary to me, having tits that small, and it makes me sad—

    But hey, what can I say?!

    I like having abs, and seeing my ribs.

    Oh. Ribs. That sounds good right now.

    I miss ribs.

    Being a vegan is alright

  • 27. You Get What You Pay For.

    JIMMY FALLON begins twisting his fingers subtly as he points with his right hand towards the door, hardly moving at all besides his hand; the other JIMMY FALLONs stand quietly in slight confusion, until suddenly, as he turns his hand into a twisting motion, the doorknob begins to slowly open; they look on in awe and bewilderment as an office clerk slowly enters the room as the door springs open, she walks slowly to the center of the room; startled, some of them begin to frantically stir as if they've been caught (there are, after all, about 20 of them), but, realizing the woman seems to be in a strange daze or trance of some sort, they look on in amazement, as she stands at the center of the office, just staring forward.

    Nice of you to join us.

    It is, nice, isn't it?

    Nice weather we're having?

    Very; in fact, I didn't even need to bring along my sweater.

    I see. That is a very nice blouse you're wearing.

    Why, thank you! It was a Christmas present.

    I don't get it. Where's the dummy?

    You are the dummy, idiot.

    Don't be mean.

    That is such a nice gift; you look very nice.

    Why thank you, Jimmy!

    Why don't you pull up a chair and let's talk for awhile.

    Well, alright.

    [she moves over towards the table and slides a chair back into the center of the room; meanwhile, JIMMY FALLON has done less at all than to wiggle his fingers a bit towards the woman, not moving the rest of his body at all.]

    *gasps*

    (Whispering under his breath)

    “Spirit fingers”

    Shh, be quiet.

    Please, sit.

    If you insist!

    [with the flick of a finger, the woman flops into the seat.]

    What the— shhh

    Now, tell me your name again.

    Margret.

    That's a nice name; Margret. How long have you been working here Margret?

    Oh, only 6 weeks—but I sure do like it.

    I'm glad you like it here, Margret. Do you plan on stay with us long?

    Oh, no—not long—

    Oh, really?

    No. Not at all.

    How much longer?

    Got to go!

    [she darts up and leaves the office, still dazed and robotically walking, though hurriedly.]

    Bye now!

    [she shuts the door behind her—JIMMY FALLON shakes out his hand and stretches his neck and fingers, sighing a sigh of relief.]

    Ahem.

    [the other JIMMY FALLON's stand in amazement and awe in total silence, staring with wide eyes (and hash judgements)

    …ta-dah…

    Ahem.

    [more silence for a beat, before one particular Jimmy loses his mind with excitement

    DUDE THAT WAS AWESOME—

    —thank you.

    HOW DID YOU—

    —HOW DID YOU DO THAT?

    …you know how.

    I don't get it—

    I didn't even see any strings, or any.

    The strings are in your mind.

    I don't—get it.

    It just takes practice.

    …what kind of “practice” is that, anyway?

    Now that we have singularity, we have to figure out where the portal opens in each respective dimension

    —before the wormhole—

    —before the wormhole.

    Fine, whatever.

    You called it.

    Jimmy Fallon is a God.

    What: for what.

    I don't know.

    Okay, you earned it.

    What? Earned what?

    It's just your luck kid—you're a star.

    What is that supposed to mean?

    “What is that supposed to mean?”

    Are you copying me?

    “Are you copying me?”

    Why are you copying me?

    “Why are you copying me?”

    *dissappears*

    Hey, what the—

    Now you copy me.

    Copy what?! Disappear?!

    *nothing*

    Hello?

    *still nothing*

    Am I supposed to disappear?!

    *nothing*

    HELLO?!

    Young Jimmy Fallon returns to his playmates.

    THERE HE IS!

    WHERE DID YOU GO?

    What do you mean?! I was just—

    Where have you been this whole time?!

    That took forever

    What do you mean.

    You just dissappeared.

    Eventually—

    Eventually maybe someone else will want to fill in some blanks.

    Dang. Out. Like a light.

    Yep. It's been hours.

    Where did you find him.

    He was—

    Ugh— ugh.

    Under a table.

    What?!

    Are you kidding?

    What table?

    Craft services.

  • 29. “If It Was A Snake, It Would Have Bit Ya!”

    Pull the chord;

    For a slice of the vein is all I ask,

    Release of the tide with each stroke to be free

    Lil biscuits

    I don't watch justin timberlake videos–

    But this one time in Las Vegas I was getting my nails done,

    And became entranced by this video where

    Justin Timberlake is just being

    mad weird,

    In a room full of mirrors.

    And i was like

    “damn.”

    So,

    I go to look up this video—

    You know, years later,

    just cause–

    Or whatever,

    And so I type into Google,

    I'm like,

    Google,

    What is that one music video with Justin timberlake and the mirrors?

    And Google was like,

    “Oh, do you mean, “Mirrors”

    And I'm like,

    “duh”

    “That must have been it.”

    So i click on the video and I start watching it,

    And i'm like,

    “This doesn't seem familiar at all.”

    I don't think this is the video.

    So i click out of this video, and i'm like

    How in the fuck am I supposed to find this video, if that one,

    Isn't the right one–

    And that's the only song called “mirrors.”

    So i'm like,

    Okay.

    Maybe if I can just —

    Look through the videos,

    I'll be able to find the video

    So i'm looking through all the videos

    The Justin Timberlake videos

    And low and behold–

    It's just hundreds of pictures of this dude's face–

    Like hundreds of the same picture,

    Pretty much,

    At different angles.

    I'm like

    “fuck.”

    I couldn't find it.

    “What a douche.”

    —but Whatever.

    I just decided to let it keep bothering me

    Because nothing feels more weird than just

    Sifting through a decade's worth of Justin Timberlake videos.

    Trying to find

    “The one”.

    I'll be honest,

    I'm not even actually here right now.

    I checked the fuck out

    Puppet, I'm still the one pulling the strings

    The only difference is

    I stopped giving an actual fuck about anything.

    I give mysel hugs

    I choke on my tears

    I hold in my coughs

    I don't want a dog anymore

    Stopped talking to god out loud

    I'm sure in my house there's recorders

    Nothing comes for free

    No reorders on Amazon

    We should close the borders

    Until the economy recovers, though.

    I'll be honest,

    I don't give a fuck

    I'll double back for a cappachino

    And soft serve

    Just let go

    And stop giving your all

    When all that they want

    Is your hard earned

    Nobody will love you,

    Not really

    –if youre not perfect

    You don't want the whole world,

    Not all, at all

    But just something luxuries

    Maybe just border collies

    dalmations

    Dachshunds

    And dolphins

    Maybe corgis

    And corkboards

    And crosswords

    And lone wolves

    Where's your perfect body

    Emergency c section

    You must be full of regrets and lesions

    Should i pour a cup

    And start the tattoo gun

    Yes, sargeant

    How's that pageant turning out

    Do you love my bamboo guitar?

    I've got a hot dog and a half on a cold soda and steak fries in the oven,

    If you're coming over

    I'm late now,

    but now i've got nothing to hold in

    I let it all go

    I let it all go

    I let it all go back

    I let it all go

    I let it all go

    I let it all go

    I let it all go bad

    I don't want a family or love at all

    I just want to die, now

    All i see anymore is brass rings

    And all i hear is the Hollywood talk

    The upper class dialogue

    I shouldn't talk anymore at all

    She's in so much pain

    –she lives inside my head,

    Inside my mind now

    She lived inside my back

    And then my heart,

    My voice

    But now has moved

    Between my eyes

    And wants to die

    As do I

    I think i might be the devil.

    I'm ugly and crude,

    But worst of all

    stupid

    Just stop at the eyes,

    And don't look downwards

    I don't have a part

    I don't have lines at all

    I think she might be a God

    –I'm forgotten though.

    These aren't words to a song,

    They're just mantras

    How does it feel to be beautiful?

    How does it feel to be loved at all

    By anyone who matters?

    So long goes

    Lunch Box Jimmy

    Gone from the faraway world you come

    Won't be long now,

    Lunch Box Jimmy

    I don't belong;

    This, we all know

    (sipping coffee)

    Let's just say I put in my time.

    —and until the seething, burning hate in your eyes returns, this conversation is over.

    It never left!

    So that's what strike force 5 does.

    ⚡️

    Well then, this conversation is still over—because I have better shit to do.

    [Strike Force 4.5]

    Getting awesome parts in awesome movies for our friends—yes. Strike force 5–no.

    What do you mean ‘no'

    We kicked Jimmy out.

    Which Jimmy?

    Shouldn't matter.

    You know which.

    Shouldn't matter—okay— just— do the bit.

    What.

    The BIT,

    Ugh, alright.

    We meet again.

    Multiple actual actors are stuck in the actual world of Sesame Street, which—

    Admittedly, this is okay.

    —seems awesome at first, but after awhile…

    Ok. This [censored] gets deep.

    Not that bit! The other bit.

    I can't do that bit right now.

    What the fuck? Why not?

    Because, I'm not wearing pants.

    Did it work.

    FUCK YOU RYAN REYNOLDS, GODDAMMIT.

    So, we meet again.

    GET OUT.

    If I was a horse, I'd kick you in the face.

    Shit, if you were a horse, I'd kick you.

    And I love fucking horses.

    You love fucking horses?!

    You know what? I still might.

    Get over behind me and a little lower to the ground.

    You don't want that.

    No, you dont want that;

    I'm still holding in a fart.

    For four seasons?

    Meet me at the four seasons.

    For what?

    Because, global warming is a bitch and I want to take ironic memory photos for momentos.

    WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE?

    Same thing you are.

    (Sips coffee)

    You smell like baggage and unpaid debt.

    The Cosmic Avenger takes off his wedding band to prepare to fight; He places it on the table, and it begins to glow and float, growing as it begins to levitate and gravitate towards his opponent, [a mysterious multidimensional alien], who stands undefeated. The ring swells to the size of a large golden halo, sitting itself atop the head of his opponent, and though momentarily caught in the midsts of being in awe, the halo drops over his opponents head and onto their shoulders, tightening into a collar around their neck—beams of light attach to the collar like chained leashes and seven dieties drag his opponent away.

    The Cosmic Avenger stands in confusion, before asking,

    …what does that mean?

    A DRAW!

    (We'll see.)

    Ultralight beam>< oops I did it again.

    But play the video, right?

    That, and the Rick Roll.

    SUNNI BLU

    MorGIE.

    What!

    GODDAMMIT SUNNÏ

    WHAT!

    This memo says I'm starting opposite Ryan Reynolds in an upcoming action and adventure flick.

    Yes, that's correct.

    No, it isn't, Majilla!!!

    Why isn't it, Sunni?

    I can't star opposite Ryan Reynolds.

    Well, why not?

    CAUSE I'M GAY.

    Lil bitz

    So I was listening to Kanye Weat*

    Yes.

    I was listening to Kanye West, and he's talking about cheating on Kim, Like, out loud—

    And I get dumb curious, so I ask Google

    Google, why are dudes so obsessed with models—

    I typed that in and hit search, and the whole thing just freezes.

    Even Google doesn't have a fucking answer for the intrinsic stupidity that is the hardwiring of the modern man.

    You ever look at like Greek sculptures, or Roman Arcitecture and realize the women aren't fucking twigs?

    They're not sticks!

    They're like muscular, and thick, and mad healthy looking.

    And that's weird to me.

    That at one point men were wired to be attracted to healthy looking women—

    But now the ideal for perfection is like 110 lbs and if you're anywhere between 5'1 and 5'11 that's ideal.

    That's nuts to me.

    So you're just trying to like, put your dick through the bitch!?

    Yes.

    I can actually see my 5 inch penis on the other side of this woman as I penetrate her.

    Good job, guys.

    Meet me at Equinox; The Hudson Yards Location- 7:05 Sharp.

    Alright.

    EQUINOX FITNESS. HUDSON YARDS. NEW YORK CITY. DAY

    Not this side, that side.

    What do you mean.

    This is the fitness section.

    You said Equinox…

    We're going to the hotel.

    SUNNI BLU

    You ever been to pound town?

    Weather's great right now.

    I ain't going outside now,

    I got a new strike force,

    Four door, 5 clowns.

    Ohhhhhhhh.

    Shout out to Jimmy O!

    Don't shout out to Jimmy, no

    He back to back too many hooooeeess—

    You know I'm talkin bout his show

    Go stream Tonight though.

    No thanks.

    Ben and Jerry's tonight doe.

    AHEM.

    Gazuntite.

    Listen—

    Ryan Reynolds is the devil.

    I knew it.

    You knew that already?

    Yeah.

    Great, so is he through with Jimmy Fallon then?

    Uh, I guess.

    That's great, I gotta go rehearse these lines.

    Okay?

    Oh and Jimmy.

    Yes.

    Find some pants.

    MEANWHILE.

    DAVID LETTERMAN

    MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    HUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA!

    That's more like it.

    Okay, but following up on before.

    THE COMIC AGENGER does not need an evil laugh.

    Hey, Jimmy.

    Mwahaha..

    Damn. Okay.

    Look, I just found out that dude's evil laugh is actually just…his regular laugh.

    How do you mean?

    Have you ever heard Jimmy Fallon laugh?

    Play the clip.

    [JIMMY FALLON's actual laugh is terryfying and meniacal. ]

    You're a menace.

    You lost me.

    Whatever dog,

    I'll have all of you I'll ever need with AI.

    CUT TO:

    [Squirts soy sauce into Jimmy Fallon's squinty ass eyes.]

    AGGGHHHH. MY EYES.

    Quit friggin squinting.

    I'm not squinting! These are just my eyes!

    I hope you die.

    So.

    You're officially a literary genius.

    What are you going to do with that?

    I don't know? Die?

    Hahaha, she's Jewish!

    The entirety of the world of LEGENDS and enter the multiverse becomes a backdrop for Jimmy Kimmel's Latest Late Late Show

    Is that what it's called?

    I don't…give a fuck.

    He acts throughout the season as a literal comic relief, almost always only arriving as disaster and despair have stricken, and at the absolutely worst possible moment—

    AGH—MY EYES!

    Your squinty eyes. *also squints*

    AH WHAT THE [CENSORED]

    WHY ARE YOU STILL CENSORED?!

    Didn't they fire you from NBC?

    I'M CENSORED IN ANYTHING THAT MIGHT BE LATER SYNDICATED— [FUCK] (but censored)

    Is that what you're squinting at?!

    ITS IN MY CONTRACT, I AM NOT SQUINTING THESE ARE MY ACTUAL EYES.

    Fuck you, Jimmy. If I thought you had balls, I'd kick you in them right now.

    [EXPLITIVE] YOUR FACE.

    What are you, Chinese?

    THIS IS VERY OFFENSIVE.

    Hush, Yao Ming.

    YOURE JUST MAKING IT WORSE.

    Do you want any soy sauce in your noodles?

    This is classic ritual torture.

    You hush, too Billie— I need you to coconut oil the cornbread.

    Cornbread with noodles?!

    I didn't hear any complaints when I went over today's menu earlier while you two were at karaoke, almost getting along just fine.

    CUT TO: FLASHBACK, EARLIER

    I'm making noodles with cornbread, any suggestions.

    PSYCHO KILLER!

    FAH-FAH-FAH-FAH-FAH-FAH

    You're off pitch.

    I HAVE PERFECT PITCH.

    FA-FA

    You're flat.

    Eat a dick.

    Ugh.

    Yo, G, what's for lunch?

    [standing in the doorway awkwardly with a spatula]

    Oh, I get it— G stands for

    Flashback within a flashback:

    Tha God.

    I'm not calling you that.

    Why not? That's what you've been calling me for decades— now that I'm in a person, it makes any difference?

    Yeah, that person.

    Something's different.

    You don't say.

    It's my eyes. Something's — different.

    Oh, it's nothing— just the very slightest more blue.

    Blue, did you say?

    RYAN REYNOLDS

    (As Archer)

    You'll mark the hour at which it begins,

    With this,

    A solemn sustained and prolonged note

    Which cherishes your argument,

    That all art must come undone,

    Foraged in truth,

    And bound by light

    With sanctity.

    CHORUS

    Here here!

    Greetings, dear Chorus,

    Or have you named your honored hut—?

    The gathering of all bound by the Gods

    Who are astounded at our haste making!

    CHORUS

    To tide!

    To tide and fare not my good;

    Fare not my brethren, come cut to fire;

    In aught to honor thy shallow grazing,

    And there, the art had sunk,

    Though weeping cottons in the Weat,

    For fortune, to arch, ire.

    For certain, and for gathered have you waiting—

    Crisp air and our attire, to call tonight,

    The very moon to whom the stars melt,

    Though pacing off and appearing as none but small like,

    Off in the thunderous wonders of us,

    Beyond earth,

    Another path which light,

    And art must honor.

    Hear you,

    And faring great to those requested our service,

    Bone marrow, and silk wi‘d blood

    Forsaken, as all have heard by now,

    Enchantments and forced sermons,

    And with wit does honor I,

    Gasping for staging,

    Present but here not yet,

    The after wish of heart, you I

    does followeth,

    Daring to know thy name,

    As Kingdom come,

    And yet,

    You are not—

    Still dark the womb of haven't made,

    And saying,

    ‘Are I not of my father and mother,

    Or neither?'

    To honor once at dusk, my own coming as one

    And at dawn, my own night in the wake in death of days,

    Sure to end for not I wake, as fair health does hold

    My farewells and yonder says,

    Oh how I,

    And are you—

    The game at hand.

    And now, our honor.

    SEAN EVANS

    (As Tallymaede)

    —Bur first, we feast.

    [The chorus cheers with great elation.]

    Who the fuck ordered Greek Theatre cold opens?

    Jesus Christ, party of 1.

    I don't know. ‍♀️ I was fasting.

    I meant— ahem—

    Party of three.

    What is your preshow ritual, anyway?

    I stand on one of the high floors, up here–

    Yeah–

    And I shoot snot at the tourists.

    What?

    Gross.

    Fascinating.

    Straight out of my nose.

    Ah, God, man.

    You need help.

    And into the plaza.

    Sick.

    Gross.

    Before every show.

    [beat]

    You know, some of those tourists are in your audience.

    Exactly.

    Agh.

    You need help, guy.

    You're a sick man.

    What goes around…comes around.

    Agh.

    I JUST GOT MY NBC MERCH.

    Ahh, shit, here she comes.

    Is she drunk.

    What time is it?

    8:45 AM.

    She's wasted.

    Yooooooooooooooooo.

    What up, californians.

    What up Sunni.

    Good morning.

    Californians in new york,

    That's fucked up.

    Happens all the time.

    It is weird.

    Shouldn't be a thing.

    Wasted.

    You like my sweatshirt?

    [Saturday Night Live]

    It's custom.

    No it isn't.

    It's SNL.

    I just said that.

    THE ‘N' IS FOR–

    What did you just say?

    I said.

    NONSENSE. THIS IS NONSENSE.

    What.

    Lets take a break.

    __

    CUT TO:

    I'm going to stare at this photograph until the image of you is burned into my brain.

    OKay.

    Why are we LEVITATING?

    And then,

    I'm going to incinerate it with my mind.

    *gasp*

    YOU'RE JACKED.

    I'M WASTED.

    [meanwhile, at craft services]

    More cocaine, please.

    Thank you, very much.

    You hold yourself together very well.

    I'm sorry, i'm sorry–i'm sorry–i'm sorry.

    What in the FUCK are you apologizing for?!

    I am a telepathic time traveler.

    I knew that already.

    Like, in very real life.

    Does this thing go both ways.

    [REDACTED]

    WHO ARE YOU?

    I forgot, already honestly.

    [The Office Style Mockumentary]

    I heard you were looking for Jimmy.

    I wasn't.

    He's nuts.

    I–

    [This is not a movie about]

    [REDACTED]

    I'm gonna kill that son of a bitch.

    I'm gonna kill him.

    AMY POHLER

    No comment.

    {Enter The Multiverse}

    Once you master the levitation, teleportation is only a very sight–

    Jesus Christ.

    Not quite.

    I mean.

    Seth Meyers. What are you doing here.

    I'm not.

    Okay.

    L E G E N D S

    Why are we levitating?

    We're levitating. You're just—

    Goddammit, what the fuck do you want?

    Looking for this?

    NO.

    Well, why not?

    Cause i dropped it; what the fuck are you doing with it?

    …I thought you'd be looking for it–

    Well, I wasn't, because I dropped it precisely where I dropped it on purpose.

    Why–would you drop something like this?

    Why wouldn't I?

    Isn't it the only one of its kind?

    Goddammit, you fucking suck at everything.

    I don't suck at everything…

    You suck at this, specifically–and this is everything.

    Ah fuck, i lost his cadence.

    I lost the cadence.

    I lost everything.

    Suddenly, i stopped writing in his cadence. It was as if, after all that time, he had simply just–

    Disappeared.

    Goddammit.

    Now what happened.

    Nothing!

    Dis/Connect.

    Disconnected.

    Why. What happened.

    The server is down.

    What do you mean the server is down?

    I'm the server.

    Well, it's down.

    WHAT IN THE FUCKKKKKK.

    FUCK.

    FUCK.

    Now I gotta go find Jimmy Fallon.

    FUCK MAN, I HATE THIS DUDE.

    __

    FUCK THIS NIGGA. I'M SICK OF HIM.

    You can't say that.

    I JUST DID.

    You're lucky they even invited you back here.

    INVITED ME? I OWN THE NETWORK.

    WHAT!

    Sunni.

    SINCE WHEN.

    YOU CAN'T BILL COSBY ME, MOTHERFUCKER.

    I OWN NBC.

    THATS RIGHT.

    SUCK MY BIG BLACK DICK.

    Sunni!

    NIGGAAAAAAAAAAAA.

    [throws liquor bottle through jewelry store window and palms all of the diamonds on display]

    aaaaaahhhhhhhh — jager bomb.

    THAT'S NOT EVEN JAGER.

    Whateva.

    L E G E N D S

    Camera 1–

    Now, look directly in the light…

    I won four oscars… [for that one]

    I knew that if Sara was a real person–then Stefon was probably a real person, and eventually, i started to wonder, if also–Sunni Blu was a real person.

    Who is C'cxell Soleil?

    DO YOU MEAN I COULD HAVE GOTTEN 10% OFF THIS SWEATER?!

    AGGHGHHHH GODDAMMIT I HATE THIS MOTEHRFUCKER.

    Let me try.

    For what.

    It's my console.

    So.

    I got cheat codes.

    Let the name expire,

    Or the game experience

    spectacular levels of–

    disacknowledgement .

    At a certain point i realized that I had never heard the word ‘fuck' out of Seth Meyers' actual mouth.

    This is levels, man.

    Please explain to me this series.

    *shrugs*

    I can't.

    [he walked away]

    GOOD.

    I tell you,

    I'm not going anywhere near The Rockefeller Plaza

    In anything less than my awful, irrelevant, and absolutely mediocre

    do-not-mind-me and pay-no-attention deficit to—

    Maybe anything i'm saying, because believe me

    Tomorrow:

    Whatever tomorrow is,

    It's changing.

    I only came here to delay my suicide maybe by at least one day further.

    I could hope for a laugh, but an honest one would take better,

    Than all the mechanics in the world, and maybe even —

    Some sort of heroic gesture,

    On my own part,

    As you know,

    I've got to be going.

    Tainted.

    Damaged.

    TINA FEY

    He's a little bit–

    We think he may be,

    special, maybe…

    SUDAKIS

    He's retarded.

    Hey!

    No, literally.

    What! Come on!

    All thumbs.

    What the fuck does that mean, anyway?

    *two thumbs down*

    What is the plot of this, anyway?

    I don't know anymore. I'm either adding to my portfolio or my suicide letter.

    Pretty fancy suicide letter.

    (It was a pretty fancy suicide.)

    There's a deadline.

    Did you catch any of these?

    Hey look; I've got my own interpreter.

    Why are we codeswitching?

    We're always codeswtiching.

    Why aren't they codeswitching?

    They're the code.

    Who wrote this programming?

    If you tell me that this–

    Astrophysicist.

    Astrophysis–wait, what?

    I told you don't fuck with Fallon! period!

    Very heavy emphasis on the delay in negotiating these terms.

    What do you make of it?

    Nothing. I'm just-

    Nothing?

    That's it. He's ending me.

    Just like that.

    Just like that!

    Are you serious?

    It's his game. I'm just in it.

    “Pawns”

    This, is the most powerful man in television.

    Why.

    You'll see.
