Single Woman Seeks Good Man might need help.

The picture looked like just a face and a caption... until I noticed that she is wet and dirty and he offers her the Umbrella of Togetherness, which is kind of him and implies romance.

Still I'm not convinced it's the best trope image. Perhaps because there is such an overlap with Umbrella of Togetherness? I don't know.

I noticed that the pic was not approved in the IP forum (I hope I'm not mistaken). So even if you all say "Hey, this is a great pic" — then this thread would be worth having. :-)

I'm gonna give this one a very weak Keep Until Better Image Suggested.

[up] Agreed.

Health sure is versatile. It's possible to be both light-headed and dim-witted. At the same time, no less.

Keep-ish.

It is a difficult trope to illustrate concisely, but the pic + caption combo works within the context of the page.

Spiral out, keep going.

Agreed with the weak keep.

Keep Until Better Image Suggested. Would like to see the Nickelodeon bug removed, though.

I replaced it with a version without the Nick bug.

We could add a panel to avoid the trope having to be explained in the caption.

[up] I don't quite see what the added panel is meant to illustrate.

Her face in the original doesn't illustrate the trope being in place. Her longing look should illustrate how Arnold's Old-School Chivalry affected her.

Well, to me her face in the bottom panel doesn't capture anything, either.

Fair enough. Let's hear others.

Yeah, the lower image doesn't show her falling for him to me.

The clock's up and the consensus is that the current pic is adequate for now. Locking up.
