[INT. LIVING ROOM – EVENING – COZY VIBE]

(Tanya and Rohan are on the couch, scrolling through memes.)

Tanya:
Aww, look at this Jif of a cat dancing! So cute.

Rohan: (stops scrolling)
Wait. Hold on. Did you just say Jif?

Tanya:
Yeah? Jif. Like peanut butter.

Rohan:
No! No no no. It’s Gif. Hard G. Like ‘Goat.’ Not 'Jam!'

Tanya:
Oh please. The creator said it’s pronounced Jif.

Rohan:
The creator also made Clippy. We don’t trust him.

Tanya:
It’s short for “Graphics Interchange Format.” G for graphics. That’s a soft G!

Rohan:
So you say "Jraphics"?

Tanya: (pause)
Don’t twist my words.

Rohan:
I’m not twisting. I’m just... saving our relationship from phonetic collapse.

Tanya: (mock serious)
If you propose with a hard G, I’m saying no.

Rohan:
If you say Jif at the wedding, I’m not showing up.

(Beat. They stare each other down. Then laugh.)

Tanya:
Let’s just agree to say... moving picture.

Rohan:
Or… “that meme video thingy.”

Tanya:
Now that’s true love.
