Panel 1 (single panel):
A man (the "dad" referenced in the caption) in a purple shirt, seen from behind, bursts in shaking his fist.
Dad: "OH MY GOD! WHAT ARE YOU IDIOTS DOING?!"

A banner/sign on the wall reads: "RUSSIAN ROULETTE CLUB (No one under 4th grade allowed!)"

Three boys/young men stand around a small yellow table. On the table are a plate, drinking glasses, scattered bullets/cartridges, and a green item. One boy (with reddish hair, green shirt) holds a glass and looks toward the dad. The wall also bears some small scribbled writing near the boys.

Caption (below panel): "Shaking his head, his look of embarrassment barely disguised, dad flipped the safety to the off position."

Votey:
A sketchy line-drawn close-up of a smiling man's face.
Man: "It's not Canadian Roulette"

A single-panel comic. A man in a purple shirt, viewed from behind with his fist raised, bursts into a room shouting, "OH MY GOD! WHAT ARE YOU IDIOTS DOING?!" Three boys stand around a small yellow table holding drinks; the table is littered with bullets. A banner on the wall reads "RUSSIAN ROULETTE CLUB (No one under 4th grade allowed!)." The caption below reads: "Shaking his head, his look of embarrassment barely disguised, dad flipped the safety to the off position." The joke: the dad is not appalled that the kids are playing Russian roulette, but embarrassed that they are doing it wrong/unsafely, and he corrects them. Votey (bonus panel): a loose sketch of a smiling man's face saying, "It's not Canadian Roulette" — implying the kids' mistake was being too polite/cautious about it.
