And on Math's 12 Days calculations:

The launch of Season 2 is thwarted as Season 1 holds it hostage, refusing to accept the end of its tenure, not seeing Season 2 as a legitimate successor. While Dr. Wu consults with renowned negotiators to end the stalemate between the Seasons, Agnes The Announcer patches into Dr. Wu’s “What We’re Listening To” channel which turns out to be an audio feed mashup of searches into pet advice and survival tactics!
