The scene shows a group of people gathered indoors around a table with a birthday cake topped with lit candles to celebrate the birthday of Love Canal activist Lois Gibbs. She is pictured in the center of the group wearing a white T-shirt that reads "LOVE CANAL – Another Product from HOOKER CHEMICAL." Adeline Levine stands to the left, cutting a different dessert, while another person stands on the right edge of the frame. The table is set with plates, bowls, and utensils, and the background features dark wood paneling; photographed by Penelope D. Ploughman.
