Grandma: Oh, Jay-san. You look as lovely as ever.

Jay: Thank you. How have you been lately? Not pushing yourself too hard, I hope.

Grandma: Ohoho, not at all. Since I have my grandson here with me too, we wanted to come see what you’re up to.

Little Boy: Did you make this, Jay? You drew a pretty cool picture!

Jay: You think so? I’m glad you like it. I actually drew some of the fish that you can see here at the aquarium.

Little Girl: No way, they have weird-looking fish like this here?!

Jay: Ahaha, the real fish are much cuter. ♪

Little Boy: What about cool-looking ones?!

Jay: Of course, they have those, too. You can see them if you look from right here. Come take a gander. ♪

Faith: (No surprise there... Jay’s super popular with people of any age. He knows how to deal with them all, too.)

Young Woman A: F-Fa-Fa-Faith-kun! I’m a huge fan! Good luck out there!

Faith: Aha, thanks. You nervous? You don’t have to be so polite. Make sure you have fun today.

Young Woman A: Wow... He’s so cool... This is bad, I could just float away...

Young Woman B: Faith-kun! I want 50 T-shirts!

Faith: Whoops, sorry, we’ve got a limit of 5 shirts per person.

Young Woman B: Oh, my bad! I didn’t see that! Please don’t be mad at meee~!

Faith: Aha, I’m happy just knowing you came here to buy some. I wouldn't get mad at you for that.

Young Woman B: Wah... I love you... Oh god, I could just melt into the floor...

Jay: (Oooh, just as I thought, Faith is a real hit with the younger crowd.)

(He’s good at making conversation with them, too... But I’m kinda worried that the foot traffic is all backed up...)

Child’s Mother: My, the fish on this T-shirt is a pretty popular one here at the aquarium.

Child’s Father: You’re right. Not surprised that a stud like Jay Kidman chose it for the design.

Jay: Haha, this fish totally blows me out of the water in terms of popularity. Sharks are pretty awesome, after all.

Child: This shark is cuter! Like as cute as Jay was when I saw him at the park the other day!

Jay: Uh oh, what exactly did you see?

Child: You were playing with a doggy! It was cute how you were the one who was more scared!

Jay: Hahaha, sounds like you saw a pretty embarrassing side of me. Would you mind keeping that a secret from your friends?

Child’s Father: That’s just another reason why you’re so easy to like, Jay.

Child’s Mother: Agreed. I feel that friendliness in the design of your shirt, too.

Jay: I’m happy to hear you say so. Enjoy your family time together here at the aquarium! ♪

Child: Bye-bye!
