My response would be "It's so brilliant , it must not
staged"  :) :)

It was my understanding that it was PARTLY staged, in that
Orkin asked the girl to
walk there for her when she was ready - the responses of the
guys were not staged,
but the woman knew she was being photographed... 

I was really disappointed when I found that out...
