There was a commercial once for one of the lesser burger joints:
Man sitting in a park, enjoying his sandwich, park sounds.
Cut to woman waiting for bus, dressed 'business hot' hair blowing in slow motion,
orchestral music swells.
Reaction shot from man: who, me?
Woman walks toward him with succubus smile, still in slo-mo,
Over the man's shoulder we see her say, "The right woman could make you forget about
that sandwich."
Music stops. Reaction shot from man: Hmmm. Replies: "Have to be a *mighty* big
woman!"
You need some oblique reference to that.
How about a UA torso shot of an apoplectic MA worker, face dark and pinched, paper
hat askew, saliva spewing from the corner of his mouth, holding a ketchup squeeze
bottle in a two-handed pistol posture, emblazoned with the title, "Special Sauce"?
