Channing somehow managed to get Bey's assistant's phone number, but he won't share how. It was probably a terrible journey full of peril and darkness, and he wants to spare us the burden of knowing.

But it was never his plan to have her perform with him, that was just too lofty a goal for a mere mortal.

And get this: Channing and Bey had never met before they appeared together on stage. They didn't even REHEARSE.

And then she left. The world was changed, and Bey was gone, ascended back to the heavens.
