to the best of our knowledge in the time of king Arthur

at Camelot it was one of his favorite sports

i get rid of soccer in one stroke i change the course of history

wher is that idot Sajp . one idiot coming up your highness

Sajp

thousand pardon my terrible queen but i can fix the elevator with a little glue and maybe some hammer and naps

that's using your head Billy

soccer is game that calls for lots of coordination and cooperation to make it work

i love soccer but not as much as food of course

i'm not sure yet

we'd better get out of here

Billy

here it is in a nutshell first the stadium disappeared then the whole city changed

now it looks weird

the master sports computer it should know

computer give us the circumstances surrounding the mysterious events on Earth please

all traces of modern Earth have vanished from my memory banks

but that's impossible

Billy when something's changed even a thousand years ago

it changes everything that happens afterwards

yes and uh where did this change take place

circa 940 a.d at Camelot king Arthur's court

king Arthur's court

further computation suggests change was caused by extraterrestrial being

man that's out of this world

it's Vanda

luckily she gives wickedness a bad name . nasty nasty . but why would she try a stunt like this

she'll do anything to cause trouble for Earth

her we gotta get back to camelot and try to stop her
