The one up there is good and doesn't need changing, but I really like this picture and it seems a lot more... unique to me. Just throwing it out there.

I don't see an improvement. Neither are particularly good, though.

I think this is one of those it wouldn't work to have a good picture for.

You mean one of those where it's just hard (at best) to find a good image? 'Cause if it's a good image, it works. Otherwise it's not good.

I mean I don't see how you can show how something sounds. Maybe if there's a French guy talking to a woman who has her eyes closed it would work but that's pretty specific.

I like the suggestion. He clearly says "Omellete something something"("Omellete of cheese") in french and the girl reacts to that like it the sexiest thing she ever heard.

But the image quality is low.

Very weak I think.

I don't see the trope in the suggestion — the reaction described in #6 is really stretching it for me. The current is better than nothing, though. Probably.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

Considering what he was speaking of, I thought she thought it was tasty or something. Sexy isn't the first good feeling that comes to mind.

The suggestion is better than the current, imo. But yeah, it's still kind of weak. Here's the girls' reaction. I'll try to get two caps that are from the same source, and we could maybe make a two-panel?

edit: so I capped 4 frames that I think could be combined to show the trope. [1] [2] [3] [4]. I personally think we could use 1 + 2, 2 without the text maybe. I just wanted to include what they were saying in all the frames in case we wanted to switch them around or anything, but I think Dexter's lines are enough.

The Dexter pics are a more direct depiction of the trope, but I dunno that they're an improvement over the current...but I'm not really sold on it either. *shrug*

I think 1 and 2 together work quite well.

I don't like it, but I don't have anything better.
