A color comic panel shows a woman with long orange hair sitting on the edge of a bed, speaking down to a man who lies in the bed beside her. Her speech bubble reads: "Honey, I... I cheated on you last night. Twice. Again." Below the panel, the caption explains the joke: "The most important thing in a relationship is honesty. Plus, this way we won't have anything between us when he comes out of that coma." The man is unconscious in a coma, so the woman is confessing her ongoing affairs to someone who cannot hear her. Votey (a small follow-up panel in rough black-and-white): the man, now awake, asks, "So, what'd you do while I was in a coma for three years?" The woman answers, "I visited you every night." The man begins, "Aww-", and she finishes, "After the bars closed."
