A long time ago in the town of Tacodale there was a law firm by the name of Quinn, Timm and Associates. They were a successful law firm, Quinn and Timm were happy together and had been dating for 4 years. Then on the last day of the Cherry Blossom Festival, the two enjoyed a date at Papa's Taco Mia. ''This really should have been named Papa's Tacoria.'' ''Agreed.''. They climbed up the hill to the famous Tacodale sign and as the dusk turned to twilight, Timm got down on one knee ''Quinn, these last 4 years have been the best years of my life and I would be honored if I could spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?'' ''I must answer in the affirmative! I have some news to tell you as well. Timm, I found out a day or two ago that I'm pregnant with your child.'' ''Yes, yes, yes, yes! By next year we'll have such a wonderful happy family! I'm so excited, are you excited? Woooo!'' He threw himself into a hug with Quinn and danced atop the mountain dreaming of their wedding. 

Meanwhile a legion of lettuce larks in Munchmore were digging through Radley Madish's trash and found a warp mirror. An ordinary handheld mirror, with an ordinary blue tint to the glass and a warp coin embedded in its back, it held the power to observe and amplify the worst in whoever's image was in the mirror. They decided that it would be funny to try and use the mirror on Papa Louie. Surprising no one, larks are not good at carrying mirrors and they dropped the mirror. It would have been fine for as long as the warp coin wasn't damaged. But the mirror hit the ground in such a way that the warp coin dislodged and activated. Sending the mirror shards into the Flipverse. The larks enlisted help from the onions to gather up the shards that scattered all along the west coast of the Flipverse. Unfortunately not all the shards were caught. Two fell on Quinn's lawn and a third at an optometry center. So what do you do when medium sized pointy sharp glass shards fall in your general area. Keep them and in Quinn's case keep them in a drawer, hidden from the rest of the world.

Between the proposal and the wedding day, Timm started feeling dull about working in law. After all this wasn't his dream, his parents pushed him into going to law school and becoming a successful lawyer. His real dream was to become a world famous dancer, he spent years of his life living the life of his parents dreams and the only good thing about his job was Quinn. She made coming to work everyday worth it. But now he was wondering if that was even enough to keep him working in law. He shook those thoughts away as he couldn't abandon his future wife and future child. The night before the wedding Timm went to his optometrist to get new lenses. The optometrist happily complied, carving a piece of prescription glass into the correct lens shape to fit Timm's glasses. ''Thank you, the blue tint of the glass on the right lens compliments the gold frames perfectly.'' He walked out of the office leaving his payment on the table. ''Thank you'' Their eyes grew wide with realization. ''Wait a minute, blue glass?'' The next day was Christmas Eve, Quinn was dressed in a warm floor length snow white wedding down, she smiled while holding the bouquet of white roses and blue hydrangeas. In just a few moments she was about to marry the man of her dreams and the father of her child. Timm walked down the aisle in his suit to meet her and when the minister asked if there were any objections to the marriage, Timm shouted out for the whole Flipverse to hear. ''I OBJECT!'' Quinn started tearing up and asked why he would leave her at the altar. ''Because law was never my dream, dance was...'' Quinn had heard stories of perfect weddings going astray, the fact it's happening to her was unimaginable.
