Hooded figure: "...OF DESPAIR!"
Blonde woman: "OOH! THEY HAVE SMOOTHIES! ARE THE SMOOTHIES 'OF DESPAIR?'"
Hooded figure: "...YES! AND CITRUS."
Votey:
The blonde woman holds a cup and looks unimpressed.

A single-panel comic. A menacing hooded figure in a red robe, with a glowing green crown and a dark shadowed face, dramatically welcomes a blonde woman: "Welcome to... the Pit of Despair! Hahaha!" Unimpressed, she replies, "Huh. It doesn't look so bad. Is that a food court?" The figure insists, "...Of despair!" She brightens: "Ooh! They have smoothies! Are the smoothies 'of despair?'" The figure answers, "...Yes! And citrus." Votey (black-and-white aftercomic): the woman holds a cup and deadpans, "This smoothie is a little too sweet," while the hooded figure throws up an arm and laughs triumphantly, "Haha haha!" -- the only despair he can manage is a slightly off smoothie.
