Single panel:
A worried man with brown hair stands in the center, sweating. To his left, a small angel (white robe, halo, wings) gestures at him. To his right, a red devil (horns, cape, pitchfork) has just arrived holding a smoking gun, with a smoke wisp rising from the barrel.
Angel: "NO TODD! YOU LOVE YOUR WIFE AND KIDS! THEY'RE-"
Devil: "HEY GUYS, I'M BACK. SORRY, BUT I GOT BORED WITH THE DEBATE, SO I WENT AHEAD AND JUST KILLED YOUR FAMILY MYSELF."
Caption below panel: "Say what you will, sociopathy is efficient."
Votey:
A simply-drawn face (the devil character) speaks.
Devil: "Efficiency is this generation's compassion."

You love your wife and kids! They're-". The red devil on his right has just returned holding a smoking gun and says, "Hey guys, I'm back. Sorry, but I got bored with the debate, so I went ahead and just killed your family myself." Caption beneath: "Say what you will, sociopathy is efficient."
