Slightly chuckling to himself as he scrolled through his TweetTalk feed, a certain superstar, couldn't help but laugh out loud the mont he stumbled upon Kyle's post from a month back.

'He really has an interesting way of dealing with them, doesn't he?' Carl Finch mused to himself as he got into the comnt section and saw the interaction between Jasmine and Kyle, prompting him to laugh again.

Considering how busy he had been the past few months with a bunch of business brands and ideas he had been working on, the famous celebrity, hadn't had the ti to even catch up on all that had been going on.

"So, the venues for the mini-tour events have been booked…" Allen Druckman, Carl's closest agent and longti pal, walked into the room while loosening his tie.

"Preparations are underway and all that's left, is for you to choose which musicians you'd like to have, open up your concerts next month." the forty-year old agent concluded as he plopped onto the chair with a relaxed sigh.

Turns out, a lot of fans had complained about being unable to attend Carl Finch's his last worldwide tour.

That was just how popular he was, enough that tickets would sell out like hotcakes the mont he announced he was going on a tour and yet, even then, so many of his fans, still weren't chanced to attend this tours.

Sure this was inevitable since fa literally made him a superstar but then again, Carl was the kind of celebrity who really adored his fans as he believed he would be nowhere without them.

And so, having his agent sort out the analytics for the regions who had the most number of fans whom were unable to attend his concert, Carl organized a mini-tour with his team of professionals.

This mini-tour, would cover several places naly; Los Angeles, Chicago, Seattle, Vancouver and New York.

"Well, I already know who's going to be opening up most of my concerts really…" Carl casually responded to Allen who simply replied in response;

"It's Kyle Kestis, isn't it?"

"Yep!" Carl snapped his fingers, smiling as he added;

"It's about ti I t him in person."

Adam and Gabriella had been having ho dates for a while now.

One they had been steadily spending the past few mornings of the weekend, watching every new episode of [The Curator]'s 10th season together since they went official.

Today was no different as Gabriella, sat in between Adam's legs, head resting on his chest as she munched on a cookie.

-

"Alright sexy. Guess we're going to Chicago, Illinois, 1893."

-

"Oooh! World's Columbian Exposition!?" Gabriella had a gaze of excitent in her eyes as she knowledgeably comnted, earning a curious look of amusent from Adam who gazed down at her in surprise.

'How do you even know that?' his eyes seed to ask.

"I know what you're thinking and yes, I'm amazing. History's fun to read up on, you know." the lady, slightly wiggled in pride as she continued;

"That said, I always love how The Curator refers to The Horologium with terms of endearnt! It's so gentlemanly!"

This earned a chuckle from Adam who was just glad to be able to share sothing he really loved alongside his girl.

"Well, she is sentient after all so it's only fair he treats her like the beautiful da that she is…" Adam responded to Gabriella who nodded in agreent, eyes glued to the TV.

Adam too, eyes focused on the Smart TV as he gently stroked Gabriella's hair, watched in genuine interest as The Curator, soon stepped out of a random door in Chicago's Columbian Exposition, 1893.

This particular episode, was one that not just him and his girlfriend had been really looking forward to but so many other fans also had, solely because of the mysterious promo that was dropped.

And now, one of those mysteries were answered in the form of the power switch in the promo trailer that had stabilized the flickering bulb, one which represented The Great, Nikola Tesla.

The man who invented AC Current.

As for the three remaining lightbulbs from the trailer, the mystery on those was yet to be resolved and so, both individuals watched on, curious to see if they could decipher what it ant.

-

"Ha! Edison can go stick a twig up his arse! The future is here!"

-

Hearing that part from the drunk man, the couple burst into laughter, after which Adam then spoke a few seconds later;

"It's kind of jarring really, learning as a kid that Edison was one of the greatest inventors in history, only to grow up as adults and realize, he's actually one of the greatest thieves of all ti."

"Yeah. And now we have to pay electricity bills because of him too." Gabriella slightly shook her head with a small sigh, her attention, back on the TV screen.

Soon, the couple watched as The 10th Curator and Tesla, started conversing, smiling a bit at the familiarity in the rapport between the two.

"Just how many historical figures does he know anyway?" Gabriella asked her boyfriend in genuine curiosity, one that Adam was more than willing to respond to as he chuckled lightly;

"Much more than even we as fans of the show, probably ever will…"

-

"Curator, you've done it again, haven't you?"

"New face, I know. Young too so I don't like it. Unfortunately, you can't ever really choose what happens with tamorphosis. It's as random as it gets so I just take whatever I get…"

-

Hearing that part, Adam was the one who laughed the loudest this ti as he realized that this was clearly another jab from Kyle himself at most of them whom had been so against his casting initially.

After explaining to Gabriella what the cause of his hearty laughter was, the lady too, chuckled a bit as she curiously asked again;

"You said at the end of each season, every iteration of The Curator usually dies?"

"Yep." Adam nodded, watching as The 10th Curator and Tesla, shook hands and bid each other farewells.

"Well if that's the case, I think people are really going to miss Kyle Kestis as The 10th Curator." she smiled with a bit of a bittersweet expression, even as she kept her gaze, trained on the TV screen.

"Yeah… I totally agree with that…" Adam shared the sa expression as his babe, both watching the show as it moved to the next scene.

Now, the focus shifted to Tesla, whom, through various periods in his life, had other Curators, co greet him, specifically the 5th and 6th iterations.

At this, Adam's eyes, instantly widened in realization once he realized, whom the three remaining bulbs in the promo had signified.

The brightest bulb had signified the current 10th Curator, indicating his youth, yet also being the wisest of the other iterations since he was technically the oldest while the other bulbs, had signified the 5th and 6th Curators.

At the sa ti, Adam, if not for having his babe resting on him, would've lost his shit the mont he realized that the clips that seed as if they had been flashbacks to and from other seasons of The Curator, were actually newly shot!

This ant, that possibly, a multi-Curator mont, one which fans had been wishing on for the longest ti, could potentially happen in this episode!

Still, his elation didn't go unnoticed as Gabriella, soon realized that Adam's heart was beating much faster than it previously had.

Glancing over to him curiously, the lady soon realized that her boyfriend was actually excited, his eyes gleaming with a child-like intensity as he kept watching the show.

The next few scenes then passed by and finally, the scene at the unveiling after the emotional mont in the small hotel room with Kiera, happened.

-

"You will never be forgotten, old friend."

"Never."

-

Gabriella as at this point, had tears of happiness and sadness in equal parts, brimming on her eyelids.

Adam who noticed it, stifled his own manly tears and instead, gently consoled his girl with a kiss on the head.

However, a few minutes after Kiera had kissed Tesla goodbye on the cheek, Adam' eyes, widened in absolute shock when he spotted two familiar faces, standing side by side as they spoke to Kiera.

-

"Always thought I'd be older by the 10th iteration…"

"I don't like it. Too young…"

-

At this exact mont, Adam truly lost his shit as he inwardly exclaid in vigorous, supercharged excitent;

'Let's go!!!'

And so, watching the conversations play out, feeling his hands still trembling in excitent even after the 5th and 6th Curator's had left, Adam had his eyes glued to the screen as the last few parts of the episode played out.

-

"Hmmm… I wonder what those youngsters were up to…"

"Probably ca to see him off too…"

-

"I don't really know much about this show, asides it being a great sci-fi series that I'm enjoying so far and slowly learning about its lore but, I'm fairly certain, that other long-ti fans of the show, are currently losing their shit, just as you are right now babe…" Gabriella giggled a bit as she watched Adam's spirited and lively grin!

"I'm sure they are!" he instantly replied, his tone jocular.

Yet, watching the last few seconds of the episode, Adam's already vivacious mood, soared to its peak.

-

"Who were they?"

"I haven't the faintest idea…"

-

No sooner had that part played out, the credits rolled.

This caused Adam, whose face was now reddened in thrilled excitent, to applaud the episode while Gabriella laughed mirthfully in response to the contagious energy of her geek of a boyfriend.

Despite all the episodes of The 10th season being amazing so far, this particular episode, in Adam's own opinion, was the absolute best!

And that, exact sa thing could be translated over to so many other fans of the show, all around the world!

Dahlia at the mont in fact, was springing about her living room in euphoric exhilaration while Amy, had the most ravishing smile on her visage as she watched the credits of the episode alongside Lily.

But more than that, far more than that, were the employees at DreamLand Inc's Headquarters.

Currently, they were jubilant, overjoyed and on top of the world as they cheered and exchanged ecstatic hugs!

As Jon, Barry and Bruno stared at the sight before them, they once again, glanced over to the massive screen in the PR and Marketing room that had pulled up the analytics for the tuned in viewers for today's episode.

35.5 million viewers!

Finally, 35.3 million, the previous highest record of DreamLand Inc's tuned in viewership ratings had been broken!

And so, with the happiest of smiles blooming on his visage, Jon, instantly made up his mind to host one of the biggest, red carpet events that the company had ever done.

Yet, as all these was happening, with fans already flocking to TweetTalk to gingerly converse about the fifth episode of the season like rabid animals, Oliver, having being contacted by Kyle earlier, had quickly contacted Griffin Colt, the CEO of SpawnPoint Studio to schedule a eting.

The main focus of said eting?

How much he'd be willing to sell off the Videoga Studio for, to a higher bidder.

Bad by Michael Jackson.

Not realizing I have a crap ton of work to do this weekend.

(Chuckles nervously) I'm in danger...

This is fine... (Insert dog in burning house ).
