A lady wearing a light blue sweater with a tan vest boards at Embarcadero station. Her hair is stylishly streaked and short-cropped, and both ears have multiple piercings. The lady takes a seat next to the indication without noticing it at first. Once settled, the indication catches her eye, and, after turning her head in its direction almost imperceptably, she takes a long look at it out of the side of her eyes . She squints and frowns and makes a little face while trying to decode its meaning. Having reached whatever conclusion she reaches, she rides on, listening to her headphones.
