The Secret Lair Episode 0013: Origins 2008
Filed Under Field Trip
Reporting from Room 929 at the Crown Plaza hotel, Overlord Johnson is joined by sometime-nemesis David Moore and almost-never-nemesis Mario Dongu, both of The Game Master Show, for the Origins 2008 report. Shannon Farrell is also present, but he quickly flees in terror, and rightly so.
Where is Overlord Miller? The answer lies within.
