The episode started fine. Peter, as the "Wealthy Individual," was building his giant, ugly mansion. But as the scene progressed, the audio began to drift. A half-second behind. Then a full second. Then, during a close-up of Peter's face as he unveiled the "Poop-Cutter 3000," the video froze. The audio continued for another ten seconds—Peter’s booming laugh echoing alone in the dark.

And Leo is afraid that if he watches it again, the eyes won’t be brown. They’ll be blue. And they’ll be looking right at him.
The show was cancelled, a ghost in the schedule, but online, it breathed. Leo wasn't just a fan; he was a preservationist. He haunted IRC channels and Usenet groups, collecting episodes of Season 3 like rare coins. The standard quality was "real media" files—postage-stamp-sized, pixelated, and audio that sounded like it was recorded inside a tin can.
