A six-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: the interior of a hangar with a large airship/blimp docked above a long building. Panel 2: a brown-haired man sits beside a dark-haired woman who is eating from a bowl; he says "Betty, I have something to ask you...". Panel 3: a close-up of the apprehensive woman in a green top and the smiling man. Panel 4: an airship flies across a cloudy sky trailing skywriting that reads "WILL YOU MARRY ME". Panel 5: the woman smiles and says "Oh Todd! Somehow I knew you would do this!". Panel 6: captioned "Seconds later...", a small green plane skywrites a new bold red message reading "NO." as the proposal message fades — the airship proposal was actually her saying no to him. Votey: a crude hand-drawn helicopter perched on a banner that reads "NO FUCKING WAY."
