The original's cooler cousin who showed up to mutate the family reunion.

means A version of something that differs slightly from the standard or original form.

from From Latin 'variare' meaning 'to vary, make different,' itself tied to 'varius' meaning 'diverse' or 'mottled' — the same root that gives us 'various' and 'variety.' The word entered English through French in the medieval period, originally describing readings or versions of a text that diverged from one another before broadening to cover any divergent form.
