The zoom slows up as it comes towards one of many small, pear-shaped openings in the turd, which is labeled "417". Fade into the inside of the opening. Puffbat is spinning around on a top. The top falls over and he bonks his head. Suddenly, a ding is heard from his computer. Puffbat waddles over to the computer and winds it up, and then sits down to check his email.}''

− | '''PUFFBAT:''' ''{voiceover}'' Long ago, about 2 billion years ago, a massive continent broke up into many pieces. ''{the continent breaks up}'' Now, each of these pieces had their own species, but most of them were the same. On each one, there was a creature called ''Casinycteris argynnis'', or golden fruit bat. ''{a picture of a fruit bat appears on each piece}'' Gradually, as the continent-pieces drifted apart, ''{the continents drift apart}'' the fruit bats could no longer breed across, and thus adapted to life in their region.

− | '''PUFFBAT:''' ''{voiceover}'' Each variety started to change, ''{as the continents drift, each fruit bat change shape numerous times}'' and within two million years, they were all so different, that they couldn't breed if they wanted to.

− | '''PUFFBAT:''' ''{voiceover}'' None of us Puffbats are too comfortable with humans, because they cut down our forests and hunt us for sport. We only know that about a thousand years ago was when the humans landed and started *ick* making out to *blech* populate the planet. <small>As if it wasn't populated already...</small> Anyways, I'm pretty sure that as long as that ancient UFO is standing in the forest, that humans aren't related to Puffbats.
