<Subject 3> (appears throughout): fully_preserved - retain the warm wood tones, the single round table for two with a chair on either side, the surrounding tables and low warm interior lighting, and no candle on the table; sets this clip's framing.

detailed_description:
Style: Photorealistic digital cinematography — rendered as if captured on a real camera, with natural real-world materials, textures, and lighting (skin, fabric, wood, glass, etc., all rendered with real photographic texture). Not illustrated, not animated, not a cartoon, not CGI-rendered, not a painting. One continuous MS · eye-level · static shot. No cuts, camera movement of any kind, identity swapping, wardrobe or costume changes, duplicate or extra people, or readable text. Tighter two-shot: same eye-level angle and the same blocking (Mia screen-left, Theo screen-right), but framed closer — cut roughly at the waist so both faces read clearly at low resolution. The near edge of the table stays in the bottom of frame; do not include the whole room. Establishes blocking for the scene. Wide two-shot at the table: Mia mid-story, animated; Theo listening, delighted, breaking into laughter the moment she lands the punchline. <Subject 1> (Mia): seated, leaning in slightly, gesturing lightly as she tells the story, then laughing at her own punchline, animated, telling the story, laughing. <Subject 2> (Theo): seated, leaning in, listening with a building grin, then throwing his head back slightly as he laughs, listening, then laughing. Lighting: Warm ambient restaurant lighting, soft and even. The reaction must be immediate and overlapping: no gap between Mia's last word and Theo's first, and both are laughing together for the rest of the clip. A pause before his line makes it read as sarcasm rather than delight.
[Shot 1, 00:00.600-00:04.000] <Subject 1> (S1) says (animated, mid-story, already starting to laugh on the last few words), <d>[English] So he tries to parallel park in front of the whole restaurant.</d> Theo leans in watching her, his grin building through the line as he sees where the story is going.
[Shot 1, 00:04.000-00:05.300] <Subject 2> (S2) says (laughing as he says it, delighted, blurted out), <d>[English] Oh my god.</d> Theo reacts the instant she lands the line — his first word comes immediately after her last, with no pause or silent beat between them, and he is already laughing as he speaks, not deadpan. Mia is laughing at the same time, over him, and neither waits for the other to finish.

overall_soundscape:
Cozy restaurant interior ambience: soft murmur of other diners, gentle clink of cutlery and glasses. A soft clink as Mia sets down her glass. Their overlapping laughter, hers continuing under his.
