A single nighttime panel. A panicked man with brown hair in a yellow shirt and tie kneels over a woman lying on the ground next to a purple car, shouting, "OH MY GOD! MY WIFE! SHE'S NOT BREATHING!" Behind him, a doctor in light-blue scrubs with a head mirror runs up clutching a sheet of paper and says, "QUICK! PUT THIS PAPER OVER HER HEAD!" Below the panel, the paper is shown to be a DEATH CERTIFICATE — the doctor is not trying to save her, he's declaring her dead. Votey (aftercomic): a hand-drawn document reading "CAUSE OF DEATH: HIT BY DOCTOR'S CAR," revealing the doctor's own car killed her.
