Come with me, Mister Swanson. What's going on? Soon... Mister Swanson, the universe need you. Interdimensional travel is now possible, and other dimensions are sending species. In most cases, we cannot recognize them, but they recognize you. Huh? In every other universe - and literally every other universe - you are and evil mega-genius who rises to world power, reigns from space with an iron fist, and kills half of humanity before he is stopped. You are the greatest, most terrible, human being ever born. Why is this universe different? In this universe, you get dumped by Sally at age 19 and use the sadness as an excuse to never finish that engineering degree. 30 later you're a lonely unkempt miser, friendly to nobody, but completely harmless, currently works at White Castle. Who manages at White Castle. We need you to walk around all day while we watch for strangers to scowl at you for no reason. Those people are interdimensional spies? About 10% of them, yes.

Reminds me of the Organic Theater play, “Warp,” in which an ordinary bank teller is transported to another dimension and learns he is Lord Cumulus. He is told he must prevent the evil Prince Chaos and his plans to destroy the Universe. My favorite line is when he asks, “What does he want to destroy the Universe for? Where’s he going to live?”
