Woman: "PEOPLE WHO THINK WE'RE SMARTER THAN ANIMALS ARE DUMB. LOOK AT DOLPHINS! THEY'RE SMART ENOUGH TO NOT POLLUTE EARTH! AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ON HOW SMART THE [text trails off, illegible]"

A single-panel comic. A blonde woman in a green shirt sits at a table, gesturing as she lectures a man whose back is turned to the viewer. A speech bubble fills the top: "People who think we're smarter than animals are dumb. Look at dolphins! They're smart enough to not pollute Earth! And don't get me started on how smart the..." (the rest trails off into illegible scribble). The man responds in small, glazed-over replies: "Uh huh, uh huh. Really? Wow..." A black widow spider dangles on a thread of web in the upper-right corner. A caption below reads: "It was a good ten minutes before that black widow finally struck." The joke: the woman's droning monologue is the venomous bite, with the man as the trapped victim. Votey (aftercomic): handwritten text reading "This is exactly how black widows work."
