TRANSCRIPT OF CARTOON:This cartoon has four panels.PANEL 1A man and a woman stand on a fancy pedestrian bridge over a stream, holding hands and gazing into each other’s eyes. Both are smiling.MAN: I’m so glad I found you. You’re the woman I’ve been waiting for! You’re always supportive, always cheerful.PANEL 2A closer shot of the two of them, walking while holding hands. They’re still looking fondly at each other.MAN: You never think about your appearance or diet, yet you look like a model. You’ve got a career, but it never interferes with time for me.PANEL 3A long shot shows them walking side by side down a path in a park. He’s looking ahead, smiling as he talks; she’s turned to face him a bit, smiling, with an “explaining hand” gesture.MAN: You insist on doing the cooking and my laundry. You’re eager to hear about all my hobbies..WOMAN: But don’t forget, honey - I’m also imaginary.PANEL 4The same setting and shot as in the previous panel. The man has come to a stop and is looking down a bit, expression sad, one hand reaching out a bit as if to grab onto something that’s not there. He is completely alone.MAN (in a thought balloon): I always forget that part. -- source link
