Tony lives in a plastic-free Brooklyn apartment. She invites her date Dre to come over for a dinner night. Dre shows up with groceries and wine that are inside two Thank You plastic bags. Tony panics when she sees the bags, but decides not to make a big deal out of it. She steps away for a second and goes to the bathroom to try to shake off. Meanwhile, Dre gets comfortable and starts looking around the apartment until entering Tony's room. When Tony comes out of the bathroom, she sees that the plastic bags are no longer there. Tony gets happy and assumes Dre got rid of the bags, but soon finds out that the plastic bags were still there.
