[Tracy flashing a practiced smile as she poses for a group photo in front of red curtains. She stands with two Black men, a Hispanic woman, and a white guy with a rainbow button. They are holding a banner that says "Food Baron Promotes Diversity" with some cheesy corporate clip-art representing different types of people.]

Nate: Kinda sad that a straight white woman counts as diverse leadership around here.
Tracy: Maybe one year there will be more than 5 people in the photo.

Jesse: Heeeeeeeey, Tracy!

Tracy (forcing a closed-eye smile, starting to crack): Oh?
