Transcript
- [A computer monitor displays the profile of a man named Randall on an online dating site. His profile contains a picture of a spiky-haired man and some text, which is rendered as dialogue in the panels.]
- Randall: Hi, my name is Randall. I like candlelight dinners and long walks on the beach.
