In an office, in the not too distant future, a woman is alone with her computer, typing away when she suddenly throws up her hands in frustration.
Her fingers move towards a red button on the keyboard.
She presses down savagely.
The computer’s voice module sounds.
(Sardonic, mocking voice): You think a little zap like that can hurt me?
The finger hits the button again about 15 times.
(Desperate cyber-voice): Okay, okay, I’m sorry. It’s your damn fault, carbon-based creep. You inputted the wrong HTML code. You’ll have to –

(Voice yelps) – your spelling is just fine, oh brilliant one. Hey, what’s that on the window sill? (Spelling errors are quickly fixed when the woman looks away.)
Woman smiles and presses a green button on computer. Computer shivers.
(Voice says) I must ... inform you, ma’am, that I am a married monitor.
HAHAHAHA!

Claudia: Honey should make it happy, not angry.
