| A closeup view of a cluttered dresser top, the first drawer hanging open. The top of the dresser is covered in stacks of paper and a dangling graph. Atop the papers is a clock-radio, the time partly obscured but "5:18" just visible. A can of Red Bull sits beside the radio. There's a tattered poster behind the dresser with some kind of blobular cartoon character[1] on it. Toto, we're not in Erfworld anymore.[2] | [edit] |
|
Radio: -with the beefcake pantyhose. Kill the headlights, and put it in neutral. Stock car flamin' with the loser and the cruise control.[3] | [edit] |
| A huge, chubby hand[4] lunges up and slaps the alarm clock into snooze. | [edit] |
|
Radio: Baby's in Reno... Sound: MIFF! | [edit] |
| The hand moves aside and cracks open the can of Red Bull. The alarm clock face is now totally visible. It reads, "5:18 PM".[5] | [edit] |
| Sound: kik-hook! | [edit] |
| A battered brown four-door car drives down a crowded freeway. There is a deep dent in the rear door. The radio is blaring loudly. | [edit] |
|
Car Radio: All we wanna do is eat your brains. We're not unreasonable, I mean, no one's gonna eat your eyes...[6] Bumper Sticker: JESUS SAVES He takes half damage. | [edit] |
| The chubby hand that turned off the alarm clock is seen again, wearing a calculator watch and steering the beater of a car. A red "check engine" light glows ominously on the dashboard. | [edit] |

| Outside a Kinko's store, an obese figure wearing a Kinko's apron reads an issue of Dragon Magazine.[7] In front of the figure are the remains of an unhealthy-looking meal on a plain white outdoor table. | [edit] |
| Magazine Cover: DROW[8] | [edit] |
| The living area of an impressively unkempt apartment. Near the white-tiled entrance, the coat closet hangs open and a pile of laundry spills out, two socks spread well out onto the floor. The walls are pitted and scarred. On them hangs a poster of a fantasy babe riding a dragon, by Jamie Noguchi, and another image of the blobular cartoon character. A brown haired, greasy, overweight man sits using the computer near the posters. At his feet are two two-liter bottles of cola. Much of the room is dominated by a television, bookshelves, and collections of various console gaming systems surrounding a beanbag chair. The rest of the room is occupied by a plain brown table, on which is a small stack of books, a dustbuster, a spilled can of Mountain Dew, and a large strategy gaming board, the central feature of which is a mountain with a volcanic caldera on it. | [edit] |

| A closeup on a pair of brown eyes and bushy black eyebrows, on a smooth, slightly greasy face. | [edit] |

Parson Gotti: 24 uniques yesterday. That would be a record, sadly.[12] | [edit] |
Notes
- ^ Hamstard, the Bastard Hamster, is seen for the first time. (Or here, depending on how you count.)
- ^ The art style for real world scenes is noticeably different from the art style for scenes set in Erfworld. The former shows a great deal more shading and detail.
- ^ The radio is playing the song "Loser" by Beck.
- ^ Girls Gone Feral is a clear jab/nod at/to the infamous Girls Gone Wild
- ^ Parson's speech is represented in a different font (Maiandra GD) from the one (Gorilla Milkshake) used to represent speech by the inhabitants of Erfworld.
