More Reliable Than Your Ex
Key art
Synopsis
Darling, this car costs more than my ex's excuses. She says it in a marble showroom, a lion at her heel, one hand on her hip, two cars behind rope.
Then it must be very reliable. He answers with both hands in his pockets. A black bull and a stack of banded cash sit at his shoe. Luxury, a little gold, and the revenge of a room where love has more horsepower than the money.
Extended sequence
The champagne is lined up and not opened. The room does not need a toast.
The floor is polished enough to keep a second copy of both of them.

A man in a black suit with a gold pin, the bull and the cash at his shoe.
