A lady boards at Embarcadero station. She wears a tan coat, a black skirt, and black, thigh-high boots. She clutches an umbrella while listening to her iPod. She notices the indication, and gives it a good, long look before finally taking a seat on top if it. She sits upright, rather stiffly, and maintains a forward stare while all the time listening to music and holding her umbrella by the handle.
