A red-haired man in a dark red shirt jabs his finger toward a blonde figure shown from behind in the foreground, shouting: "Don't stare at me like that! Stop it! This was never more than a physical thing and you knew that from the start! Stop it!" The caption beneath reads: "Reluctantly, I deflated Cynthia." — revealing the blonde he is breaking up with is an inflatable doll. Votey (aftercomic): a black-and-white close-up of the same man looking uneasy as an off-panel voice (the doll's) asks, "Did you just say 'Psh'?!" — implying the deflating doll made a sound that sounds like a dismissive scoff.
