PC walks by a telescope labeled "See the future!", before backpedaling and deciding to take a glance.

PC: Eh, what the hell. I'll take a peek.

PC looks through, but doesn't see anything.

PC: Does this thing... see 6 billion years in the future or something?

Seb appears, coming out of invisibility.

Seb: Hey, PC. I see you wanted to try my telescope.
PC: You're running this thing?
Seb: Yep. Just pay me a few bucks, and I'll turn it on for you.
PC: If this is a scam, I swear to God...

PC gives Seb the money.

Seb: So, how far in the future do you want? A month? A few days? A year?
PC: Do a month.
Seb: Sure thing!

Seb cranks the lever, and the telescope turns on. When looking through, PC sees themself in a white wedding dress, next to Ruby, wearing a white tuxedo, with Psy reading a book.

Psy: And do you, PC, take Ruby to be your lawfully wedded wife?
PC: I-

The telescope shuts off.

PC: What the ****?!
Seb: Well, times up! Sorry, PC. Rules are rules.
PC: Fine! At least it's a good future...

Estella, holding a bag of money, walks over to Seb.

Estella: What did they see?
Seb: I showed them something they're wishing for.
