This is a mildly humorous clip that portrays the 1960’s version of what the future might be like. A woman walks into a sparsely decorated futuristic room while eerie music plays. She stands before a small robot/computer and waves her hands slowly in front of her face before taking a seat in a chair across from the 1960s/futuristic computer. She greets the “Master Computer,” waves a penny in front of it and asks it to identify the strange and foreign object. The computer, which resembles a cardboard replica of R2D2 with a strobe light, informs her that it is a “penny.” The woman struggles to repeat the word penny correctly and inquires as to the object’s use. The computerized voice explains that use of money and price though the “futuristic” woman is confused by the 20th century concept, connoting that she exists in a different time/way of life.
