Main comic: A living room. A man steps out toward the right, telling his family, "Well... I'm off to have another battle with the toilet..." On a pink couch, a woman holding a TV remote replies, "...okay honey..." while a young girl beside her says, "Eww! Why is daddy always so gross!" A caption beneath reads: "We thought he was joking about constipation until, one day, we found his cold body on the bathroom floor, a porcelain dagger in his back." Votey: A line-art close-up of the man's face lying dead, eyes shut, blood trickling from his mouth. Floating text reads, "BEST PRANK EVER." The joke: his death was staged by him as the ultimate prank.
