[Unfiltered. Let's see how long it takes Ken to realize this.]

[Ken sits on the edge of the fountain in Espoir, frowning into the camera in aggrieved confusion, as if it personally has done him some disservice.]

Uh... this is probably gonna sound dumb but Does anyone know what kind of stuff you get a girl you like that isn't totally stupid or creepy?

[The head and neck of a toy giraffe are just visible in the lower right hand corner of the frame. Ken glances over at it as he speaks, then shoves it quickly down in an attempt to get it out of shot, without any real noticeable success. An awkward look flickers across his face. Great, so he's already seriously regretting deciding to ask this question and he hasn't even finished saying it yet...]

And I'm not gonna do flowers.

[The feed cuts off quickly.]

Well, no... but I'm a florist. It's kinda... not trying, if I do it.

It would still be a thoughtful gift if you hand-selected the arrangement with care, as opposed to the standard dozen red roses.

You think? I thought she'd just think I was kinda winging it.

You could pair the flowers with a more meaningful gift, as well.

Like candy? Candy's just as bad, isn't it? Oh, man, I'm not very good at this...
