Not wanting to leave the V.P. in the embarassing position of reaching out to shake hands and not receiving a handshake in return, Tyler quickly wipes his hands on his slacks and reaches for her hand. In his haste, he grasps the V.P.'s fingers before managing a proper grip and the pressure he applies causes one of her rings to press painfully against her little finger. As he continues to shake her hand, he explains how happy he is to meet her, but his eyes glance back and forth from her eyes to the ground since he is nervous about talking with her. As he moves on to get back to the cash register, he winks at the V.P. and says he is glad to meet her.
