Main comic: A man in a tuxedo stands at the altar clasping hands with his bride, a blonde woman in a white dress and veil, before a crowd of wedding guests. He says, 'She may not be the funniest girl, and she may not be the smartest. She may not be the sweetest girl, or the prettiest, but... hrmm.' A caption below reads: 'At this point, I elected to leave the altar.' The joke: his attempt at a wedding toast lists only her shortcomings and then trails off without finding anything positive to say.
Votey: A close-up of the bride's stricken, trembling face as she watches him go, with a single speech bubble reading 'WHY'.
