A bleeding man in a blue shirt cries "HELP! I'M DYING OF BLOOD LOSS!" to a man dressed as a doctor in green scrubs and a white coat, holding a head mirror and reflex hammer. The doctor laments, "OH GOD! EVERY DAY IT'S THE SAME PROBLEM!" Beneath the panel a handwritten death certificate reads "CAUSE OF DEATH: Am not actually a doctor." The joke: the man is an impostor doctor and people keep dying of treatable problems. Votey: A bald man holding a sheet of paper tells the fake doctor, "YOU FILLED OUT THIS CERTIFICATE WRONG"—even his paperwork is incompetent.
