In the valley of the normal, everything happens for a reason.

Panel 1: Two women are seated around a table. The first woman has a dark green top and has a piece of paper on the table in front of her. The second woman has a light green top and has a laptop computer in front of her. First woman: What about your new client? Second woman: Rebecca? Oh, she's been evicted...
Panel 2: While the second woman continues speaking we see a young woman walking down a grey street. She has a pink top and blue jeans. She has a rucksack and is pulling a small suitcase on wheels behind her. The second woman continues: ...She was laid off. Couldn't find another job. Got behind with the rent. We did our best, but the landlord wouldn't listen.
Panel 3: Now we see Rebecca sitting at home instead. On the kitchen table in front of her is a teapot and cup, a letter, and an opened envelope. The text says: What could have happened instead. Crossed out is 'Laid off' and instead 'Kept her job. Crossed out is 'Couldn't find another job' and instead 'Found another job'. Crossed out 'Got behind with the rent' and instead 'Got help with the rent'. Crossed out 'We did our best' and instead 'They actually did their best'. Crossed out 'Landlord wouldn't listen' and instead 'Landlord was more understanding'.
Panel 4: Back to the first scene with the two women. First woman: Well, I suppose it was inevitable. Second woman: Yep.
