A couples-therapy scene. A woman with orange hair and a man (Raymond) sit on a couch facing a therapist, whose back is to the viewer in the foreground.
Woman: "I guess I think what's driving us apart is different interests. Ray just doesn't care about my scrapbooking, or my crocheting, or anything!"
Therapist (to the man): "And you, Raymond? What do you think is causing this rift?"
Raymond: "B-cups."
Caption (below the comic): B-cups is the name of Ray's mistress.
Votey: A red drinking cup sits upside-down on a table against a blue wall. The cup has a pair of red lips drawn on its side and a thin white straw or stick coming out of it, anthropomorphizing it as the mistress named "B-cups."

A four-panel-style single comic showing a couples-therapy session. A woman with orange hair and a man named Raymond sit together on a couch, facing a therapist seen from behind in the foreground. The woman says she thinks different interests are driving them apart, complaining that Ray doesn't care about her scrapbooking or crocheting. The therapist asks Raymond what he thinks is causing the rift, and Raymond flatly replies, "B-cups." A caption below reads: "B-cups is the name of Ray's mistress" — revealing the wife misread the situation entirely; the real problem is an affair, not hobbies. Votey: a small follow-up panel showing a red plastic drinking cup turned upside-down on a table against a blue background, with a pair of red lips drawn on its side, depicting the mistress "B-cups" as a literal cup.
