Miriam and Alan have a conversation in a store where Miriam is looking to buy art supplies for coloring. Alan recommends a coloring book first, but Miriam says no and is looking for colors instead. Alan then shows her options of color packs or markers, and Miriam likes the markers. When Alan tells her the marker pack costs $3 for 5 markers, Miriam thinks that is expensive. Alan offers cheaper alternatives, and Miriam decides to get those instead, thanking Alan for his friendly help before leaving.
