A bald man in a tuxedo stands at a podium next to a wooden casket, gesturing toward it as he delivers what appears to be a eulogy: "Susan and I had a wonderful thirty years together. But, I know she wouldn't want us to dwell on death, but to focus on life. On... the future." He then turns and adds, "Isn't that right, Shelly?" A caption below reads: "It was at this point that the wedding music began." The joke: the man is using his late wife's funeral to immediately announce his next marriage. Votey: a loosely sketched close-up of a smiling man's face saying, "Such beautiful savings."
