The protagonist sits back up and removes his sunglasses, cleaning them on his shirt as a small lightbulb icon appears above his head, having decided to forget the manuals and try a human explanation instead.
In a dream bubble he imagines meeting a woman, Aimee, at a party — both of them smiling and exchanging a look. A caption reads: "You meet a nice girl and really hit it off."
Still inside the dream bubble, he pats his pockets frantically as his phone slips from his hand toward a storm drain. A caption reads: "Like an idiot, you manage to lose her phone number."
He dials the phone while a switchboard operator's silhouette answers on the other end, styled after an endpoint-mapper diagram rendered as a literal switchboard. His speech bubble asks, "Is Aimee available?" while a caption reads: "You know that she works for Microsoft though, so you start by looking up the Charlotte office. You call and get a switchboard, so you ask for her by name."
