    Bumperpodcast #428 – Season 3 – News


    “News” is a side-splitting episode from the Bumperpodcast, an improvised comedy podcast set in the wacky town of Coffee-Can Alley. In this episode, Natty Bumpercar, Rufus T. Rufus, Producer, and Aloysius J. Pig engage in a series of humorous tangents as they attempt to discuss some exciting news. As they get sidetracked by everything from current events to bizarre hypothetical scenarios, the gang’s banter becomes increasingly absurd and comical.

    Despite the numerous distractions, the gang eventually receives the exciting news they were waiting for, leading to even more hilarity and unpredictable twists. With its quick wit, playful banter, and unexpected punchlines, “News” is a prime example of the Bumperpodcast’s ability to create unforgettable improvised comedy. The show celebrates the art of improvisation, and this episode is a testament to the cast’s comedic talent.

    Listeners will be entertained from beginning to end, as the gang navigates their way through the absurdity of Coffee-Can Alley with humor and grace. “News” is a must-listen for anyone looking for a good laugh and a break from the mundane.

    Natty Bumpercar 0:00
    For you guys, you guys, you guys, you guys. You guys. You guys. You guys.

    Aloysius J. Pig 0:07
    What is it Bumpercar What’s so excited about what you’ve seen he came in really hot, you seem very excited I am I’m super excited. But I’m also

    Producer 0:15
    really bothered just nippy, I didn’t do what you are super excited about. But maybe you want to tell us because your team very happy

    Natty Bumpercar 0:23
    I am producer but the house will have a problem I have I have something that I’m super excited about. But then I also have something that I’m kind of frustrated and bothered about. So which one do you want first?

    Rufus T. Rufus 0:33
    Well, not here as your lawyer. I recommend that we’re gonna get the bad news out of the way first, and then we can end on the high note. Because you know, that’s what I think it’s a better way to do business.

    Aloysius J. Pig 0:49
    You know, Rufus has a point because I always said you’re just a spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down into that same way that CRD it opposite roofers, that when you get the good news fires, and then it softens the blow of the of the of the bad nose. So I don’t know, I guess we’re of two minds,

    Producer 1:08
    or two seems like a lot of sugar that you’re taking a whole spoonful, it’s going to definitely go over your daily requirements of sugar. So yeah, that seems like it’s a bad equation. You know, if you’ve got to take your medicine, you just kind of let it go medicine, you don’t have to be taking all of it. Sugar as well. And you know, they say if you’re sick, you don’t want to be taking a lot of sugar.

    Natty Bumpercar 1:31
    Okay, yeah. Well, that’s, that’s that’s a good point. I you know, I Rufus, I see what you’re saying, you know, bad news, get it out of the way. Good news. And on a high note, pig, I see what you’re saying. Also, the good news is going to ease you into the bad news. And, and and producer, I think you’re right. I think that probably too much sugar isn’t really going to help if someone is sick. And you know, what kind of medicine is it that we’re taking that you’re going to need a spoonful of sugar? And is it just a spoonful of sugar? And then is it a spoonful of medicine? Because that one to one ratio is just not going to be good? I’m gonna have to reach like, if you ever tried to eat a spoonful of sugar, it is not easy

    Rufus T. Rufus 2:16
    at all. Now not as your lawyer it’s me. Hi, everyone. It’s Rufus here. We are not a medical advice. No. And so I’m hesitant for you to be out here with your equations and your representations. And your I don’t know you’re just kind of spewing some medical advice and I don’t think we’re comfortable and number one be telling you Okay, so watch ourselves a little bit here. i So, what we will do is everyone please ignore nine, the sugar medicine that was that was previously discussed on this bar now. Okay. And I think we may not it will just move forward with whatever your big news is or whatever. Okay, okay.

    Natty Bumpercar 3:08
    Okay. Totally makes sense. Totally agree. Yeah, I don’t really think we were giving medical advice, but you are the lawyer so I will listen to you. So here’s what I’m gonna do. I have two numbers. In my head. Pig. I’m gonna let you count the numbers that

    Aloysius J. Pig 3:24
    are between 711 Seven left seven.

    Natty Bumpercar 3:27
    You went a little too fast there. I didn’t tell you what they were in between. So pickle is in a pickle. No, that’s also that’s actually not even a number. That’s it’s yeah,

    Aloysius J. Pig 3:37
    it’s delicious. Are you gonna agree that pickles are wonderful. You get sweet pickles? You got sour pickles? You could sometimes I spicy pickle. I mean pickles. Really? They could they run the gamut of different kinds of I don’t know if they what are they called? They’re not condiments are not side items. What does it pick up? Exactly?

    Rufus T. Rufus 3:54
    I think that the word you’re looking for as a contract ma I think what you’re looking for is kind of a flourish you know on a plate. I think a pickle is one of those things. It’s an add on the just elevates your meal a little bit. Let’s say I’m having a butter sandwich which is of course delicious. You take your bread and you put your butter on and then you sprinkle a little a little sugar and the

    Producer 4:24
    sugar there. Yeah. A lot of sugar.

    Rufus T. Rufus 4:27
    We’ve been sponsored by big sugar this week. Nothing sugar. Did they call him

    Natty Bumpercar 4:31
    no no excuse. No one called in and watch the microphone. You just ran into it? No, but first off I’ve never had a butter sandwich. That sounds great. It sounds really great. But so it’s it’s it’s it’s bread and butter and then sugar and then more bread. Yeah, that just I I don’t see any nutritional value coming Any any of that? Really? Yeah. And

    Aloysius J. Pig 5:01
    I’m wondering, what is real fish with a woody giving you this butter sandwich with the sugar before they were giving you some sort of medicine? Just a sandwich and helps that. And with I don’t know what I was doing there Yeah,

    Rufus T. Rufus 5:23
    you will you would be ruining the whole day we were here we were talking about butter sandwiches. It’s a delicious treat. And we were talking about pickles, and I finally figured out what they are the Okay, just don’t worry.

    Natty Bumpercar 5:39
    Don’t worry about it. Cool. I don’t want to talk about pickles anymore.

    Producer 5:43
    Hold on one second that they pickled is actually a cucumber then. So it’s like you magically you take the cucumber, and you just have to do some I don’t know things to it, and then it becomes a little bit of a pickle.

    Aloysius J. Pig 5:57
    Everybody knows what a pickle is?

    Producer 6:01
    Not a yes or no, no.

    Aloysius J. Pig 6:03
    Why don’t produce Why don’t you go back behind the board. You’ve done a lot of talking done today’s episode. And you just handle the buttons and knobs and the tubes and the wires and everything back there. And oh, come on pump like I was you know, yeah, we’re like 17 minutes into we’re not we’re not and I finally I’m ready. I’m actually what it is, is I’m not ready for the news. But I’m just done with this whole thing. Whoa. And so I’m ready to be done. Okay, if that’s okay, yeah, that’s

    Natty Bumpercar 6:30
    totally fine and totally understandable and totally acceptable. So, here’s the news. The good news, and it’s pretty phenomenal, I think, is that the bumper podcast just past 80,000 listens in the time that 80,000 listeners to this podcast since we started.

    Rufus T. Rufus 6:54
    A lawyer here. Let me just get some papers out here are 80,000 I feel like we have reached some sort of out here. We have a contract threshold here and the contract. Yeah. Yeah. At 8000 and every 20,004. After that. We are on to receive a PayPal.

    Aloysius J. Pig 7:19
    So we get paid.

    Rufus T. Rufus 7:23
    A percentage, I think. I suppose I can circle up and I’m gonna come back on this if you don’t mind, because my list is wonderful news. Congratulations to everyone. Yeah, good job. We should have some sort of a party, maybe get some sandwiches and put some pickles.

    Aloysius J. Pig 7:43
    Don’t come Don’t do that to him rule for you. Wow, good job. Bomberger. Everyone is super thrilled at the bumper podcast, it’s been listened to over 80,000 times. That’s amazing. And we’re why like 430 episodes in 12 years, can somebody do the math and tell me like, What is that like eight listens per episode? Like two, two lessons per year? Like what is it a good number I don’t even know allergies.

    Producer 8:10
    I know, I’m not supposed to talk, but I respect her crunching some numbers and I came up with this. So 430 episodes, it means divided by, well, you have 280 1000 divided by 430. And it comes up to like 187 episodes. Okay. And then if you think there’ll be deeper

    Rufus T. Rufus 8:34
    now, it was a one second I don’t I don’t mean to interrupt, because these wonderful numbers you’ve come up with. But I was wondering, can you make some sort of spreadsheet with some sort of shot? Maybe a bar chart? Maybe it’s a good idea? I don’t know. Maybe it’s some sort of a pie chart or something.

    Natty Bumpercar 8:51
    Now you now you’re talking I did not enjoy the reference to the pickle party. But I very much enjoy the reference to a pie chart because I think you all know I love a good pie. Yeah, I

    Aloysius J. Pig 9:03
    mean, how could you not pie pie pies? Pies. Good. Because you can have a sweet pie. You can do like an apple. Or like Apple rhubarb or strawberry rhubarb. A little berry is another good pie.

    Rufus T. Rufus 9:19
    I mean, you can do a Marang also, you can do like lemon Marang you can I mean there’s so many options for pie.

    Producer 9:26
    You know, was one of the talks about the numbers but nothing we’re talking about bias. You can have sweet pies you can have savory pies, which are just delicious. You know, you can have like a good dumpling kind of pie. Or you can have a minced pie I don’t know really what that is. You can have a Thanksgiving pie

    Natty Bumpercar 9:49
    weird Turkey you didn’t show up for the Thanksgiving episode you forgot to come I guess. But now you just appear when when when when producer mentioned A Thanksgiving pie I

    Producer 10:09
    completely understand and you know, I was not going to be in tentative, I was just going to go over the numbers, and we were talking about pies. And then I got a little bit over my skis. But really quickly, I just wanted to tell everybody, so if you take the numbers or 800,000, I think we’ve been doing this or something like 12 years, and you divide the 8000 by 12 years, you come up with how many episodes are no Debbie, listen to? You don’t think of that.

    Natty Bumpercar 10:39
    Yeah, that sounds like yes, I would very much like to hear that. I mean, it’s not going to be super representative, because I’m sure as less listens in the beginning that maybe it is now but yeah, tell us what, how what that number breaks down.

    Producer 10:50
    Okay, with everyone from freaking the one out but if you divide 1000 by 12, you know, the year, it comes up to 6,666.66666?

    Rufus T. Rufus 11:05
    Nope, you’re gonna we’re gonna either than we we’ve been doing it shorter or longer, because that number is not acceptable. And that is the good news was the 80,000. That’s the bad news. And is that we just does this doesn’t seem acceptable to me at all. Bad luck home in Canada

    Natty Bumpercar 11:20
    number. No, it has nothing to do with the bad news that I think that that number is totally random. And you know, we’d have to go back and look at see when we actually started and everything because I don’t really no, but no, don’t let, let’s let’s not freak out about that. We’ll just say it was around 6500 per year, roughly. And then that feels a lot better. I agree. But no, no, no, no, that’s this is all great news. This is all the good news. Good news. 80,000 listens way to go. Bumper podcast. Thank you so much bumper podcast, good tears. You know, we’ve been on the non pro network. We’ve been on the shining wizards. Podcast Network. We’re currently on Radio Free Montclair. So it’s great. We’re doing things. I appreciate it. But we also have some bad news. I think we have time that I should probably talk about

    Aloysius J. Pig 12:11
    that. Yeah, you should probably get to it. What is the what is the bad news?

    Natty Bumpercar 12:14
    Well, the bad news is I don’t know if you listen to the last week’s episode, but that guy still has all of our equipment and so we haven’t even been recording this. I’ve this is just a brick that I put in front of you all and this isn’t really an episode. This was we didn’t have an episode this week, right.

Here we go. I said Hey, how you doing? Everybody coming around? It’s me Natty Bumpercar and I’m upping your town. It’s the bumper podcast and we’re gonna have some fun and we’re gonna sing just a little bit number one, number two, I don’t know number three here we go Should I go on and on or should I no no drop the music no music Hey, it’s me peg. That was what ridiculous whatever you just did. Let’s get back to some more traditional music something that makes a little bit more sense. But a BRAC background excuse me of a podcast like this There we go. And see it’s a little bit more mellow you see because you don’t want to I mean you’re starting the show and you’re just jumping all over people produce Who is this you Producer 1:01 messing with the wires? No, no, I did not make any of the decisions it’s me producer and I did not decide to make the the funky hip hop be there was too much I thought it was like why are we going to vintage breaks for the background of a podcast. Hello, you just go Hey, I’m going to create United Kingdom Natty Bumpercar 1:22 but I feel like I did say hello didn’t I think I was like hey how you doing that was I think maybe it was one of the I don’t remember what I said honestly. But it was one of the first things that I said and I thought it would be like chipper like hey, we’re starting off with a funky beat like my funky beat like that. But you don’t agree Aloysius J. Pig 1:38 not only do like not agree I completely and totally disagree. Natty Bumpercar 1:42 I disagree. I’m the opposite of a great I disagree if you understand it’s like well, it’s it’s Yeah, I agree I Rufus T. Rufus 1:52 ever wanted to meet Rufus, to Rufus, the residential resident lawyer here, and I listened to what’s going on, I’m gonna just litigate a little bit because I do I’m gonna step in to the free and I’m gonna try to understand some of the mitigating factors. I don’t as it were, okay, cool. Natty Bumpercar 2:14 Hi, Rufus. So I decided to start the show off with what I thought was like a fun kind of, I don’t know old school hip hop. He kind of beat Poppy. That’s like what rabbits know. Hey, what a rap is listen to hip hop. Come on, he and I. And and evidently it upset pig. Oh, dude. I mean, now you even hear it. Hold on first. Before Rufus before you ate it. It didn’t upset me. But what I took umbrage with. He’s just, you just jumped right into it’s like throwing a bucket of cold water. These people, they’re driving around in their cars, whatever they however, you listen to your podcast, and all of a sudden, they’re like, I’m in traffic, and then you just hit slam boop, boop, boop, boop, Aloysius J. Pig 3:00 I don’t see a lot. Rufus T. Rufus 3:01 Now hold on a second. Now people actually listen to this while they’re in town. People are driving while they’re listening to their show. Because if so, I’m going to have to go through my books, my books of law, my books of justice, my books of vengeance, Natty Bumpercar 3:18 vengeance. What? Rufus T. Rufus 3:20 Just kidding about that last ball? Natty Bumpercar 3:23 Okay, go and go into your law books, I guess and research it well. What are you going to research out? Rufus T. Rufus 3:29 Wow. What I was going to look into is if people are listening to this while they’re doing things, all we rely reliable, that’s not the word responsible. Are we responsible for them while they are listening to us? You understand? So let’s say we’ll take a random example. Let’s say Sousa squirrel. She’s out driving around picking up a baby squirrel children and go into the nuts store after school so that they can have a delicious dinner. And what I’m wondering is if Susie is squirrel, or one of her children, you know her children, I believe that Sammis squirrels skip the squirrel, sand squirrel. stew, squirrel world, as you know, is number 50 different squirrel children and maybe one of them listens to your show. And if anyone in that vehicle puts this show on to the radio, are we then going to be responsible for anything that happens while they listen to the show? Natty Bumpercar 4:40 No, I don’t think so. I mean, they’re just it’s like they’re listening to. I mean, it’s not music. I mean, it was music at the very beginning, but it’s a podcast. And so if you know they’re just passively listening, podcasting is really it’s really passive when you’re doing it. It’s not an active thing. It’s not like this is a quiz show or like Phone in and be the fifth fifth caller to win. staying out Rufus T. Rufus 5:04 wait a minute now what do you just brought up an interesting point there? Now we’re going to start doing raffles trick and trays or tickets or anything like that, like, do I need to go out and purchase a roll of tickets? And if so what color because they come in a rainbow of different a variety of colors and sometimes the tickets, just one ticket down the line. Sometimes it’s two tickets, so you take one, you get one, I get one and then what you know what? So there’s a lot of legwork that’s gonna have to happen I’m gonna make sure that we’re good with the commission of coffee can alley here to be able to actually enact such things? Natty Bumpercar 5:50 Rufus you’re missing the point. Okay. It’s just you know, about rainfalls. This isn’t about what are we responsible for? It’s about he started to show off with a Silly Song and I was just saying it was inappropriate to hit people with I think I said a bucket of cold cold something I don’t remember what I said. But he right off the bat right normally with a podcast I’ve been I’ve been listening to him I’ve been doing a lot of reshot Jake Sully and with the people though he say go Hello Hello On today’s episode we are going to be talking about path pay or something like that you know and then they talk they actually talk about pate to the whole thing they’re not jumping around and not skipping around they’re like you know having to they sit down and sit at a table maybe maybe they stand I don’t know. And then they’re like what are we gonna talk about on today’s podcast? This Producer 6:46 is exactly what I was trying to do I was trying to happy producers meeting so that we could all get together in you know, having conversation maybe about what the podcast was going to be that day and what they’re going to talk about and so then we could also you know, hire experts to come into the shop or in doing the interviews like we used to do sometimes and we could really do a deep dive as well as I think they call it and we could get to the bottom of a few things you know I do research though I’ve been reading this newsletter magazines and the flyers a lot of flyers about the podcast starts crying Natty Bumpercar 7:25 I’m glad that you guys are doing all this research. That’s amazing. I had no idea that you guys were doing all that I I feel like I should be doing research Susan’s My name is on the show, but that’s okay. Let’s you know what i like the idea of having a meeting and discussing what the show’s topic will be and we can even you know we can like yeah, like today we’re gonna talk about you know, whatever it is and then we can actually try to do that to I don’t even know if we could do Rufus T. Rufus 7:55 I don’t listen, I think people tend to understand appreciate the wild wooliness the show it can it can go anywhere at any time. And then the second and I don’t know if the proper way to move forward would be to you know, say put up a lot of structure. I think that would confuse people and they might be like, Well what show is this now? I were 404 episodes into this bumper podcast and all of a sudden you’re going to tell me that you’re going to talk about I don’t know slinkys Natty Bumpercar 8:30 I mean slinkys is that’s actually a pretty growing up I remember slinkys I used to thought they were magic with being Producer 8:37 a frog we’d never had slinkys because you know we will get them and then they will met them and then they would always rust and he was just very sad. So we could talk about that too. I guess now Rufus T. Rufus 8:46 I obviously I feel like I was just using slink as kind of an example we don’t i don’t mean that we’re gonna do that. I was I was like, using like, people still in business school those that say you’re going to start a company and you’re going to be selling widgets. widgets. Natty Bumpercar 9:03 I love widgets to widgets are super fun. Like, I remember growing up and you could just go out and buy a box of widgets. And it was just like, what are we gonna do tonight? I don’t know. I guess we’re gonna play with these widgets See. Now I feel a little bit left out because we didn’t have widgets where I grew up was that what is that like a southern thing? Producer 9:20 So we reordered widgets, you could get them in a box of cereal and there was I remember my mom was she was always like, hey, producer, but Natty Bumpercar 9:29 your name is actually producer. Producer 9:30 Yes. It’s my name is what I did. Yeah. Okay. But anyway, she would say producer, you’d be careful when you open your cereal. Because if you pour and you don’t pay attention, you could always end up eating a widget and it’s not gonna taste good by the way. Natty Bumpercar 9:47 It’s not gonna taste good at all, which I mean, that’s like metal and plastic and whatever, like, clearly Wow, you have a very good caring mom, producer. What is it kind of under your name is actually producer I thought we just kind of like that was Hey, you’re doing the producing we’re gonna call you No sir, that reminds me I was gonna get a new key card system for the entrance to the podcast, Katia button bumper, whatever we are, we’re, we’re in headquarters in coffee-can alley currently we’re in the bumper barn, which is where we do the recording. That’s what studio is, as you saying, Rufus T. Rufus 10:21 Don’t Don’t make fun of how I speak I’ve got an accent and I’m proud of it. It is, it is baked into me than it is how I talk and it is how I walk in it is who I am. Anyway. I have a keycard system that’s going to be installed at some point. We’re going to be doing hand scans, retinal scans, we’re going to take all kinds of information and be properly buttoned up around here there’s just too much frivolity as far as who’s coming in and who’s going in and who’s starting the shows off without anybody else. No one about anything you want to stand when I’m catching my drift. Natty Bumpercar 11:00 No, I don’t understand what you’re catching your drift. I think that’s probably a swipe at me because again, I started the show off with a Silly Song but producer is the one who actually pushes the buttons and I’m not throwing him under the proverbial producer bus.

    About This Episode

    In this year-end episode of Bumperpodcast, Natty Bumpercar attempts to record a big closeout wrap-up for the year, but his plans are derailed when he's visited by an unexpected guest: himself from the future. Future Natty arrives with confusing explanations about time being like string (or yarn), cryptic references to prom, and claims that Natty becomes much happier in the future. The conversation gets increasingly chaotic as the two Nattys bicker about speech impediments, string theory, and whether the Bumperpodcast becomes the most popular show in the world. Just when things couldn't get more absurd, Future Pig arrives to compound the confusion, much to present-day Natty's dismay.

    Memorable Quotes

    “In the future, you're happy all the time. You're never upset at anything. In fact, your middle name is Rainbows and Sunshine Bumpercar.”

    — Future Natty Bumpercar

    “Do I also get a weird speech impediment in the future? Do I say things that don't make sense?”

    — Natty Bumpercar

    “This is the best thing ever. You're alive. It's me. You're still friends with me in the future, Natty Bumper Cars.”

    Natty Bumpercar: What's going on Bumper Podcast? It's me, Natty Bumpercar, and this is our big year-end clearance sale event of the century. No, it's not. We don't have, we don't, we're not selling anything. We're not, we don't have anything. Uh, we're not selling anything, but it is our big year-end closeout. Like, this is our big last day of the year wrap-up. We go over everything that… Hello, Natty Bumpercar. What in the hoot, Natty? Oh, hi. It's, well, it's me. Who? It's, it's Natty Bumpercar from the future. Oh, no. Why are you here? Where we, well, where we like to extend our words really long for emphasis. That's a terrible thing to do. Yeah, it's kind of a future thing that we do. You don't understand yet, but you will one day, I promise. Okay, well, that's awesome that you're here, I guess, but why are you here today? We really, it's not the type of show where we introduce new characters or we do new bits or anything like that. It's kind of just a big year-end wrap-up. Well, of course you would wonder why I'm here on this very day. Of course. Very portentous, important. You talk a lot. Did you lose what you were going to say? Yeah, I, yeah, I, okay, I did mess that up. Try again. Well, just because I'm from the future doesn't always mean I know what I'm going to say. Oh, okay. That's not how it works. I mean, I'm just you from another time. Yeah. I don't, I don't know things that, I mean, like, I guess I know some things that you don't know, but for the most part, I don't. Well, I mean, I would hope that you would know a lot more than I know. I mean, like, you're from the future, so in theory, that means that you've lived a lot longer. You've, I mean, you've… Lived through a lot more stuff than I've lived through, which means… Yeah. That you would… No, no, you're wrong. You're wrong there. Know more things than I do. Is that, is that right, or… Not correct. Not correct at all, sir. Let's look at it this way, if you will. Time is a lot like a piece of string. Really? You're doing string theory? Oh, you've heard that. Okay. We've heard of string. Time is like a piece of, um, yarn. Okay, yarn is just string. We have, yes, we have… You have yarn now? Yes, we do. In this time? Yes. Okay. Of course. So that, that, okay, yeah, right. It's the same thing. It's the same exact string and yarn are the same thing, so you're not doing anything futuristic. You're not adding anything. All you're doing is stepping on the episode. This is our big year-end closeout wrap-up. Yeah, I know. Let everybody know what's going on. Set the plate for the new big year that's coming up. And you're talking about yarn, and I don't understand why you are bothering me today. Wow, I really forgot how crabby you are in the past. In the future, you're happy all the time. You're never upset at anything. Oh, come on. In fact, your middle name is Rainbows and Sunshine Bumpercar. Did you just say sunshine? Sunshine isn't even a word. That's nothing. Do I also get a weird speech impediment in the future? Do I say things that don't make sense? Oh, come on. Oh, what's the weather like today? Is it going to be rainy or is there going to be a lot of sunshine? That's not nice, and it's not even necessary. Come on. It was a slip of the tongue. You know, let's do this. Do you remember when you were going to prom and you said something silly? Okay. Have you had that yet? Yes, I've had that. It was a long time ago that I went to prom, and I don't remember saying anything silly. I more remember that everything that I said was silly back then, and if you were more specific, you could have said, hey, remember that thing that you said that wasn't silly? And then I would have been like, oh, yeah, that one really sticks out in my mind. Okay, you know what? We're done with this back and forth thing. Tell me why you're here right now, real quick. Let's go, because I've got other things to handle. I've got business to handle. I've got things to do. Of course you do. You always have things to do because you're so busy. Did you know that in the future, the Bumper Podcast is actually listened to by every single person in the entire world? Wait, what's happening? What is this? What's happening right now?

    Aloysious J. Pig: Hey, everybody, it's me, Future Pig.

    Natty Bumpercar: This is, I'm truly sorry about this, Natty Bumper Cars. What? It's Future Pig. I quit. Hey, this is so…

    Aloysious J. Pig: This is the best thing ever. You're alive. It's me. You're still friends with me in the future, Natty Bumper Cars.
