Dense Caption

Four identical panels display yellow pixelated text reading "Friends are there to lift the end" against a blue-to-green gradient background. Each panel shows the same arrangement: 'Friends' at top, 'are', 'there', 'to lift', and 'the end' stacked below in descending order. The text uses a blocky, low-resolution font typical of early digital graphics. Background transitions from solid blue on edges to bright green near center. All four panels are visually identical with no discernible differences between them.
