Like a wildfire burning out of control, he starts his own. "CC: All" on that nasty note to his boss.

The coins fall through the vending machine. She tries to open every door, including the ones under the "Out of Order" sign. She tries her coins again. Desperate times call for ditzy methods.

"Whoa, this place smells really bad!" he says. "It's not the place," she replies. He sniffs his shirt and blushes.

The whole room jumps as the speakers let out a loud "yelp!" Not exactly the "get up and boogie!" the DJ intended.

It's their first day out together. He's easily 60 years older than her, but neither one seems to mind. They just sit and enjoy the sunset together. Grandpa and his lil angel.

She calls over the gas attendant, frustrated at the pump's sudden stop. "It's full," he explains. Well, that solves one of her problems.

He stands large at the bar, 'til two younger, more handsome men come in. He seems smaller, 'cept for his belly. He turns away to shrink into his beer.

Time and time again they ignore him. He reaches out to faster gaits and averted eyes. All he wants are directions. They're more lost than he is.

They're surrounded by the vast beauty of the countryside... overwhelmed but in a different light. Staring out upon the valley, he declares, "one can only take so much nature before you need a mall."

She gets in the car with her ex-husband's girlfriend, to go pick up the cake for her pregnant daughter's wedding. Modern Romance.

They doze off in the warmth of a New York Summer Sun. Perhaps dreaming of the towers that used to cast their shadow there.

He complains to his friend that he has too many keys. The friend owns only two. Ahh, the simple life!

He's absorbed by the store's video game. While he's busy sizing up the enemy, Mom's busy sizing him up for a shirt. Mom's winning this round.

She opens up the giant door of her giant SUV... a herd of little ones pour out. She forgets they know how to open the other side. Now she has two herds to corral.

She stands in the doorway, waiting for someone. She scans every passing face, in hopes they scan her back. She looks at her watch... and waits... and scans.

They listen in admiration, as she goes on-and-on how great she is... til she leaves. "She's so full of it." "Hm-Hmm."
