Hey, Denmark is a monarchy. Get His Maj Frederik, who’s a good-looking dude, to offer the orange one a Royal Duchy that comes with a cool golden crown or something like that if he’ll shut up about Greenland. Orange guy loves royalty.

In the top center, a curtained window glows. To the left, a H&Z market, a convenience store, glows white …
