Fascinating science: [^], [^].

Black-out. Lights fade in, but the scene is still dark. A man and a woman sit at opposite ends of a dining table, both look grim, and tense. You see neither of them move their lips, or vary their facial expression, but these words are heard:

Man "But, I thought we had everything going for us ..."

Woman "It's hard to explain ..."

Man "Is there ... somebody else ?"

Woman "No, oh no ... it's just that ... well ... your microbiome sucks."

Man "That's really hurtful, you know ... didn't I become a vegan just for you, don't I have spirulina every morning because ... of you ?"

Woman "I wish ... how I wish ... I could put it some other way that would make you feel better about it !"

Fade to black. Fade in of a brilliantly sunlit tropical beach; a man and woman walk hand-in-hand into a calm emerald sea. Sound of waves, occasional sea-bird cries. Voice over by a deep, soothing, male voice:

"It can seem hopeless ... I know ... I've been there ..."

"You try and change and ... it just doesn't work ... and you feel like you've made yourself into somebody you aren't ..."

"The guilt, the anger, the grief ... I've been there."

Fade in background track of inspirational music: man and woman slowly turn and face the camera, their backs to the sea. The male voice shifts into a more powerful, assertively optimistic tone:

"But, now there is hope ! ... there is ... Microptimal !"

"A unique patent-pending process of microbiomial transplant and personality adjustment !"

"You can BE compatible, not just TRY to be compatible !"

The man and the woman lift their hands, and wave, as the camera pans in for a close-up. They kiss.
