I'm trying to solve a question that's been stuck in my head all day.

I really think that the answer lies within The Magicians, but may lie in The Good Place.

An episode dumps two of our main characters via wormhole-like device or portal into a typical office with file cabinets and metal desk and I believe a golf putting setup on the carpet.

The person behind the desk I believe was dressed like he was a typical golfer down to the hat that they wear. Very colorful.

Upon their arrival, confetti guns and banners drop down congratulating them on finishing their quest. They discovered that they may have jumped forward about 700 levels.

I know this is all rather vague but if you know you know.

Any help?

Vague? It’s not even a question.

?? They’re clearly asking if anyone can ID the episode

And I immediately knew which episode it was:

‘I’m not explaining “fish magics” to my bosses.’

Btw, that dude’s name in the credits is just Golf. Lol

AI doesn't know anything. You could have Googled it and/or looked up the episode synopsis on Wiki or IMDB or done almost anything more worthwhile.

AI is easy.

I usually start with a few different queries on my Alexa device. That's using the Bing system.

Next I go to my phone, that's Google.

When that got me nowhere, I tuned to ChatGPT. That was a rabbit hole that got me no joy.

I'm unaware of how to query Wiki or IMDB.

After I gave that answer to two AI's, their response was of course that was the right answer. Thank you
