A scientist travels back in time to ancient Babylonia to see the beauty of the Hanging gardens... ...after trying to impress the King by demonstrating magnetism between his crown and a magnet, he finds himself in big trouble. In court, the people are mixed about what his punishment should be. Some see him as a valuable ally while others see him as a dangerous threat. The kind and generous King however decides to give him one chance to favour the people and gain his freedom. He tells the scientist, ""My jester has died recently and we have been without laughter. If you can tell me something that will make me really laugh, something I have never heard before, I will grant you your independence, your weight in gold, and a seat by my side. If not, you will be stoned and killed."" The people of the court await curiously as to what the strange man would say. He thinks for a moment and then clicks his fingers as an idea formulates in his head, sparking interest from the crowd. He recalls a joke which he has seen a while back on the Internet. He was sure it would please the King, and certain that he has never heard it before. The people stand quietly listening attentively to the man as he executes the joke in a skillful and humorous manner. He finally concludes and looks around the great hall. The room is incredibly quiet, as if something sacred lay in the center, and the faces of the crowd are stagnant. However, almost simultaneously, everyone turns to the King who is masking a neutral expression. The King turns to his guards and shakes his head as they proceed to drag the scientist away, kicking and screaming. The crowd begins chattering about the whole ordeal sharing their thoughts, but are suddenly interrupted by the King who is loudly chuckling, grabbing the attention of his loyal people. ""Number 463, such a classic.""
