Dave purchasing the candle at the Salvation Army Thrift Store, as Emily looks on. Dave strikes a pose -- as his Official Chronicler I shall christen this pose Dave's "Sherlock Holmes" pose.

Here is Dave lighting the candle for reasons unbeknownst to me - I find out later that it is an inside joke.

This is Dave's reaction a couple minutes after discovering that the top of the pedestal on which he placed the candle was in fact a hole, through which the candle promptly dropped. Here he is looking around the pedestal, hoping that the candle would materialize somewhere near the base. It did not.

Here is Emily's reaction to what happened after Dave attempted to place the candle on top of the pedestal.
