A classroom scene. A professor sits at a desk facing two students seated at school desks. A young woman with orange hair raises her hand and asks, "Professor, why are there trap doors under our desks?" A caption below reads: "Ahh, the first day teaching Natural Selection is always the best day." Votey: A close-up of the smiling professor, who says, "The trap door contains food, and a baby with your genetics."
