A teacher with graying hair, glasses, and a tie stands at a lectern gesturing passionately at three silhouetted students seen from behind. He delivers an inspirational inner-city-classroom speech: "Maybe you ARE just a bunch of inner city kids nobody expects to succeed. But, you know what? As long as I'm here, you're gonna learn! You're gonna open your eyes to the possibilities around you! And you know why? Because I have FAITH!" A caption below reads: "Faith was, of course, the name of Mr. Fulton's machete." The joke reframes his rousing speech as a threat. Votey: a close-up of the same teacher, now brandishing a machete, saying "I also have confidence." — implying a second weapon.
