The woman in American Gothic is the man’s daughter so I suppose she could do worse than having Ms. Mona Lisa as her new step-mom.

Trying to do more commercial parodies. I uploaded an image of a can of coffee and images of the couple from that commercial, but Sora absolutely refuses to make an image of them kissing, no matter how I phrased it. The best I could get is “staring longingly”. (I added some condoms to the counter in one of those.)
