Panel 1:
A man with short brown hair, seen from behind, opens a chest or container and looks inside. Inside sits a wicker basket holding a baby swaddled in a blue blanket, with a pacifier/rattle floating above.
Man (thought/speech): FREE BASKET!
Man (thought/speech): WAIT... WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING?
A price tag hangs at the bottom of the image:
Tag: BASKET $9.95
Votey:

A man with short brown hair, viewed from behind, lifts the lid of a chest and peers inside, where a wicker basket holds a baby swaddled in a blue blanket with a floating pacifier. He thinks, 'FREE BASKET! WAIT... WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING?' A price tag dangling below reads 'BASKET $9.95' — he's reacting to the basket as a bargain while ignoring the abandoned baby inside it. Votey: a close-up of the man's irritated face as he grumbles, 'That better include tax.'
