Text overlay shows relationship dynamic from @thomaskralow

A man sits alone in a car with a text overlay indicating he has '100 problems.' A woman joins him, also with '100 problems.' She then leans on him for comfort, and the text overlay changes to show she now has '0 problems' while he has '200 problems,' humorously illustrating how partners take on each other's burdens.
