The characters are framed by a banner with the word "Enigma" written on it in bold letters. A group of people stand smiling near a "FINISH" flag at an outdoor event. Some wear race numbers, medals, or sports gear. One person holds a humorous sign reading, "Smile if you peed a little." It's a sunny day in a park. A tweet by Gethin Lawrence jokes about airport luggage shops, asking why they exist, as if travelers bring loose clothes intending to pack after arriving at the airport.
