A relationship that will transform both of their lives. A new - and not entirely honest - relationship is going to be born. What Greta doesn't know is that she's about to bump into Big Swiss in the local dog park. Greta is miles away, sitting at a desk in her own house, wearing only headphones, fingerless gloves, a kimono, and legwarmers, transcribing this disembodied voice. Greta and Big Swiss are not in the same room, or even the same building. Nor has Greta actually ever been to Switzerland. Well that's how Greta imagines seeing her they haven't actually ever met in person.
