Althea recounts a frustratingly mundane sex dream to her ex-partner, Chris. She uses the dream's bureaucratic setting to highlight the lack of passion and the clinical nature of their past relationship.

Utterly, mind-numbingly boring. We were in, like, a beige office. Fluorescent lights, cubicles, the whole nine yards.
