Brain: My story begins on a night just like this one. Dr. Bill Hubbard at the Institute for Advanced Studies was computing algorithms to the power of 27,000 when the cosine button of his calculator became stuck, causing his results to increase exponentially. Unaware of the problem, he continued to use the Briggsian system. Needless to say, the sine curves of his indices were distorting along a quadratic progression. And what he saw when he looked down filled him with an unspeakable terror, for it was the largest prime number ever computed!

Brain: Excuse me, I'm trying to tell a story here!
Canadian Kid: This story's not scary, eh.
Brain: Not scary? Don't you realize the repercussions of Dr. Hubbard's mistake?
