A wedding scene. An officiant at the altar says, "And if any one can give a reason these two should not be joined, let him speak now, or -" A man seated in the pews interrupts, shouting "He's a jerk!" The bride, in a white dress, spins toward her groom and exclaims, "You never told me that!" Below the panel a caption reads: "Ugh. Why do I keep inviting dad to my weddings?" implying the heckler is the bride's father and this is a recurring problem across her multiple weddings. Votey: a close-up sketch of the groom's face in profile saying, "We prefer 'Inconsiderate-Americans,'" a politically-correct-euphemism punchline reframing "jerk" as if it were an ethnic identity.
