"Time. Space. Reality. It's more than a linear path. It's a prism of endless possibility. Where a single choice can branch out into infinite realities, creating alternate worlds from the ones you know. I am the Watcher. I am your guide through these vast new realities. Follow me and ponder the question: What if?"
― Uatu the Watcher (What if...?)

― Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth about the What-If Machine (Futurama, "Anthology of Interests I")
