The camera glides through the cavernous, hushed galleries of the Museum of Natural History, the air cool with the scent of polished stone and aged parchment. Ross Geller pauses beneath the colossal, arching skeleton of a Tyrannosaurus rex, his fingers unconsciously smoothing the lapel of his blazer. His attention is caught not by the fossil, but by a figure standing before it—a woman, her coat brushing her calves as she leans in, studying the bone structure with a quiet, palpable curiosity that feels more like a conversation than a glance. As she senses his presence and turns, their eyes meet in the dim exhibit light. A soft 'sorry' escapes her lips as she steps aside. The space between them hums with a sudden, unspoken tension.
