A child finds a cleaner with a skull and crossbones poison symbol and a do-not-touch sign, then a medicine bottle beside pink pills that look like candy but are marked "not candy". A trusted adult comes in and hands the child one pill, and the child's question goes to the adult in a speech bubble, ending on "Poisons and medicines: ask a trusted adult."
