A dimly lit two-person scene. A woman with dark hair, glasses, and a purple sweatshirt labeled "Star Treks 1, 2 & 4" leans toward a smiling man in a green shirt and glasses, saying "How would you like me to remove 700 petabytes of your data tonight?" The man covers his mouth with a paper, stifling a laugh ("Pfft!"). A caption reads: "Computer scientists have the best pickup lines." The votey is a black-and-white close-up of the woman's blissful, eyes-closed face exclaiming, "Oh god oh god this is gonna be high band-width!" The joke turns data-transfer jargon into flirtatious double entendre.
