during the credits
We see Carl painting a picture and asks Katherine what she thinks. She suggests making the balloon red and the child a girl. You see the painting, and it’s reminiscent of Banksy’s Balloon Girl, but the balloon is blue and the child is a boy. They discuss a new name for him and go through a few before landing on Banksy. Then you see street art on barns and silos.
