"Welcome, Lord Nibbler," said Fiona.

"Welcome acknowledged. I bring with me ... the Mighty One," said Nibbler. Fry looked around the great hall of Eternity and wiped his nose on his sleeve.

"Eh?" said Fry.

"At last, our centuries upon centuries of waiting have achieved fruition," exclaimed Ken.

"Aw! Aren't you a fuzzy wittle guy?" said Fry as he tickled Ken. Ken purred.

"Stop that! Uh, please. Your Mightiness--" Ken interrupted.

"Mightiness? Are you off your nut? I just got kidnapped by a bunch of guinea pigs," said Fry. The Nibblonians gasped and chattered.

"Does he not know?" asked Ken.

"He does not know," answered Nibbler.

"He knows not?" asked Fiona.

"Knows not does he," retorted Nibbler.

"Not he know--" began a Nibblonian councilman.

"Enough! Fry, it is my duty to inform you that the fate of humanity, the fate of our race, indeed the fate of all that exists and ever will exist rests with you. You are the single most important person in the universe," Ken said.

Fry looked dumbfounded at the council, the enormity of what was said settling on him.

"Oh, snap!"
