The boy was holding a mobile ad. for gyny pills. The white ball represented the wax capsule that held the individual pills inside. The figure on top had what looked like a socket for a light bulb in her right hand and an opened clamshell-type thing in her left hand with 2 toddler figures inside, with one piggybacked on the other.
