Dry humor skit about daily routine from @ronswildworld

A man sits at a kitchen counter and states that he sometimes has an apple around 4 o'clock. The video then cuts to a clock showing 4 o'clock, confirming the time, before returning to the man as he calmly eats his apple slices, all set to gentle background music. The video concludes with a title card branding the segment as the "4 O'Clock Apple" from "Ron's Wild World".
