A courtroom scene. A bearded judge in black robes sits at the bench with a gavel; beside him a blonde woman in a pink shirt gestures wildly as she protests her case. She says: "That is NOT attempted murder! I just thought he'd like to know what a syringe full of Windex feels like." A caption beneath reads: "Ultimately, I was compelled to apologize to the foreman." Votey (aftercomic): a crude sketch of a hunched figure gripping a knife with a strained, menacing face, saying "SORRY!" — implying the apology to the jury foreman was coerced at knifepoint.
