Transcript:
Phoebe: What would a unicorn be doing in the moon? Marigold: According to lore... She envied the moon, as it was the only thing that could outshine a unicorn. So she moved to the only place where she would never have to look at it: Inside it. Phoebe: That's a long move. Marigold: They say she gave away most of her furniture...my cousin claims to have her credenza.

This makes me think of an interactive Koan of the Day story where the thing of your choice fails to reach the moon so the moon takes on it’s image out of pity.

Reminds me of the Parisian author (de Maupassant?) who so hated the Eiffel Tower that he took all his lunches in the restaurant in the Eiffel Tower, so he didn’t have to look at it.

There was an French author who hated the Eiffel Tower so much, he ate at the restaurant on top of it because that way, he would be sure that he would never see it
