## Before you start

Guidance from Reference, separate from the creator's instructions.

1. Read the reference and inspect the project, installed libraries, and available agent skills before writing code. Reuse suitable tools already present.
2. Prefer the creator-reported libraries and skills when they fit the task. Explain what useful additions help with, and install missing project dependencies or relevant skills from official sources when the environment and the user's existing permissions allow it. Respect the project's package manager and setup rules; do not ask again for routine setup already authorized.
3. Distinguish tools used by the creator from your own recommendations. A listed tool is not automatically required, and an empty tools or requirements list means the setup is unknown, not that nothing is needed.
4. Ask concise questions when missing inputs or choices materially affect the result: paid services, credentials, the user's assets, or a different production approach. Use existing answers and permissions; continue independent work while waiting.
5. If a useful library, skill, or service cannot be installed or used, explain an available alternative and its expected effect on quality, features, or effort. Get the user's choice before a material compromise; otherwise state the fallback and continue. Never silently simplify the result or claim to have used a tool you did not use.

## Prompt

```text
Create a 15-second hilarious animated sequence in the exact same warm, elegant 3D cartoon/Pixar-like visual style as the provided storyboard. Maintain the same husband and wife character designs, luxurious cream-colored bedroom and laundry room, cinematic warm lighting, expressive exaggerated facial reactions, and smooth comedic timing.
Scene 1 — 0–3 sec: The husband is relaxing in bed reading a book. Suddenly, he notices his wife's bra and top being thrown out from another room onto the floor. He slowly lowers his book and stares at them with wide, suspicious eyes. In his imagination, this clearly looks like his wife is preparing for a romantic moment with someone inside.
Scene 2 — 3–6 sec: The husband immediately jumps up excitedly and rushes to the mirror. He sprays mouth freshener, applies perfume, fixes his hair, and gives himself a confident, seductive smile. He is convinced something romantic is happening and that he should quickly join his wife.
Scene 3 — 6–9 sec: Looking handsome and confident, he slowly and dramatically opens the door, expecting a romantic surprise. His expression suddenly changes from excitement to complete confusion.
Scene 4 — 9–12 sec: Reveal the truth: his wife is simply doing laundry. She is pulling freshly washed clothes from the washing machine one by one and tossing them onto the floor because she needs help carrying them. She looks at her husband standing there, fully dressed up and smelling of perfume.
Scene 5 — 12–15 sec: The wife immediately takes advantage of him, smiling innocently as she stacks a huge pile of wet clothes into his arms. The husband becomes completely trapped under the mountain of laundry. His romantic excitement disappears instantly, and he walks away slowly with a sad, moody, defeated expression while the wife happily continues doing laundry.
Comedy style: exaggerated facial expressions, fast misunderstanding setup, dramatic reveal, visual humor, smooth character animation, cinematic framing, warm luxury interior, same character consistency and visual style throughout.

## What it looks like

Written by Reference from the video frames, not by the creator.

Warm, softly lit 3D cartoon scene featuring a dark-haired man in a blue shirt and a woman handling laundry in a home interior.

- Color: Muted blue clothing, cream and beige walls, warm brown wood, and soft neutral laundry colors.
- Type: Stylized 3D character animation with rounded forms, expressive faces, and smooth, softly shaded surfaces.
- Framing: Characters are framed in medium and close views against recognizable bathroom and laundry-room interiors; clothing piles provide a prominent foreground and background element.
- Structure: The visible scenes move from the man reading in a bath area and grooming at a mirror to a laundry room where the woman sorts and stacks clothes around him.
