Main comic: A blue title banner reads "SMBC PRESENTS: PARENTING TIPS - EPISODE ONE - 'FINDING TIME TO LAUGH'." Below, a small boy seen from behind asks his father, "Daddy... do you love me?" The bald father, in a red shirt and leaning back in a chair, throws his head back with his mouth wide open as huge yellow "HAHAHAHA" laughter erupts beside him, appearing to laugh cruelly at the child's question. Votey (a rough black-and-white sketch panel): The same bald father, now looking pained and clutching his arm, calls out, "Come back! I wasn't laughing! I'm having a stroke!" The twist reveals his "laughter" was actually a medical emergency.
