Don't have time to edit now:
You watch a rerun of an ancient TV show where a guy saves the world after getting shot in the chest and making an electronic gadget to monitor his vital signs. The story doesn't make a lot of sense, but you think the science might be sound.
You've learned a new quest recipe: Biomonitor Circuit - Connect two frayed cables to a signal analysis circuit for a basic life-monitoring system.

The TV warms you with its soothing glow as you rest in front of it, flipping through channels.
You stumble onto a Matsuo the Demonslayer marathon one of the local stations. You get to watch him triumph over the Lord of Blood and the Cackling Skull.
Between episodes, they have a call-in contest for a particularly sweet looking replica sword to the lucky twenty-third caller. You try your luck and land it! Matsuo is with you. Woooooooo!
You won: replica sword

The TV warms you with its soothing glow as you rest in front of it, flipping through channels.
You stumble onto a few episodes of "Supernatural Stellar Defense Team Omega." The quality's actually a little off, like it might be a bootleg.
You think you came into the middle of a plot arc, because the first episode you find is about how the team actually came through a temporal portal from the distant future. Which is actually pretty normal compared to the next episode where you find out the quiet green-haired girl can apparently turn into a spaceship.
You spend a little longer than you'd like to admit watching it, but eventually the channel fades back to static.
You stumble across a strange show on Public Access. A high-strung, thin man speaks rapid fire about the horrors that have befallen Metroplex. He begins with a long intro presenting hazy evidence.
Then he launches into a tirade, screaming about "sea serpents in Lake Metroplex, lab-bred chimerae, and face-stealking skinwalkers! It's the end! The end of times!"
