A black-bordered comic panel. A wide-eyed, grinning man leans over a terrified young boy, holding the boy's head from behind while a roaring chainsaw is held inches from the boy's face. The man yells, drawn out word by word: "BILLY- YOU- BETTER- NOT- HAVE- ANY- MORE- NIGHTMARES- EVER!" The chainsaw emits "WHRRRRRR!" and a digital alarm clock on the nightstand glows "3:00 AM". Below, two captions read: "It turns out that this technique doesn't really work." and "Good thing I never used it on my own kids." Votey (aftercomic): a loose hand-drawn sketch of a smiling man with a speech bubble saying "I'm a great stepdad." — revealing the boy was his stepson, not his own kid.
