Well this is just great. You know, I was just starting to think I was done with this place. And here I am, right back in Nonah. Again.

[The dark-haired teenage boy in the video blows out a frustrated breath and taps at the screen irritably.]

Somebody please tell me there's some good news? Somewhere? Anything?

Yeah, that's about what I thought.

[His eyes flick over to a closed folder sitting nearby.]

And do they pull these job assignments out of a hat or something? I mean the one before was bad enough, but now I'm supposed to be some kind of gossip blogger? Is that seriously an an actual job?

If there is one thing I have learned on Earth, it is that anything can be considered an occupation. But there is no need to approach the situation with pure pessimism; surely there is at least one thing in this place that you enjoy.

If there is, I sure haven't found it yet.

Then you mean to say that in this entire world, there is not one thing that you consider worthwhile? How very sad!

You mean this entire world that I never wanted to come back to in the first place?

Correct. Unless you believe that any place that you do not personally wish to be has no value?

Let me guess, you're a politician. Either that or a high school teacher.

Wrong on both counts! Neither of those occupations exist where I am from.

And where is that?

A planet that I doubt you have heard of. It is called Astonia.

Oooh, I'll trade you. I review "media".

Media includes movies, right? Doesn't that mean you get paid to watch them?

Apparently it includes whatever I want it to, but I'm really limited by this whole "no spoilers" thing.

Yeah.... That would make it a little more complicated.

Seriously no spoilers at all?

It's the name of the show. Seriously. "No Spoilers".

[Danny considers the name with a great deal of skepticism.]

You think there's someone somewhere that actually gets paid to think these things up?

If there is, they're being paid too much.

No kidding. I mean, I could come up with a better name than that. That's barely even clever.

They could have at least made it a pun.

Yeah! I mean, they could have called it Reel Advice or Film Flam or i don't know what else.

Might be too specific for them, I guess. Still, guaranteeing no spoilers is kind of a joy killer.

What would happens if you just used spoilers anyway?

No clue! But on the off chance they decide to fire me I'm gonna stockpile clothes first.
