Panel 1:
A lawyer with flame-like orange hair, wearing a blue suit, stands in a courtroom gesturing toward a witness (a woman with brown hair in a green top seated at a witness stand).
Lawyer: "WOAH WOAH WOAH! Do you expect this jury to believe that your husband would MAGICALLY still be alive if my client had run him over while SOBER?"
Caption (below panel): "Poor legal strategy #12: Saying stupid things."
Votey:
A close-up of the same orange-haired lawyer, now looking uncertain, with a thought/speech bubble above him.
Lawyer: "Can I object to my own statement?"

A courtroom scene. A lawyer with flame-like orange hair in a blue suit gestures emphatically toward a seated brown-haired woman witness in a green top. He shouts, "WOAH WOAH WOAH! Do you expect this jury to believe that your husband would MAGICALLY still be alive if my client had run him over while SOBER?" A caption below reads, "Poor legal strategy #12: Saying stupid things." The joke is that the lawyer just admitted his client killed the woman's husband by drunk driving. Votey (aftercomic): A close-up of the same lawyer, now looking sheepish and uncertain, asking, "Can I object to my own statement?"
