A local hardware store aisle, illuminated by harsh fluorescent lights. Tom and Megan stand side by side, examining paint samples and wooden planks. Both wear work clothes with paint stains, Megan’s hair pulled back in a messy bun. Their golden retriever waits patiently at the end of the aisle, leash tied to a shopping cart. The shelves are stacked high with building materials, and the floor is scattered with dust. The scene is gritty, with deep shadows and a sense of everyday effort.. Dark comic style with cinematic lighting and realistic depth
