A woman wearing a headset stands before a crowd of people, gesturing toward a red-haired man (Todd) shown from behind. She declares, "This is an intervention, Todd! We want you off heroin!" Todd replies, "But heroin makes me happy!" The woman immediately responds, "Wow, really? That sounds amazing!" A caption below reads: "We now hold interventions every Friday and Saturday night." The joke: the intervention has been hijacked into a recurring weekend party where the leader gets talked into the very vices she's supposedly fighting. Votey: The same woman, drawn in simple line art and grinning, says, "Next week we should intervene against getting drunk, eating peyote, and then watching cartoons!" — confirming the group has fully embraced indulgence as its agenda.
