Panel 1:
A glowing green translucent woman (a projected spirit) floats at the bedside of a man lying in bed with another person.

Glowing woman: "Honey - my body is in a deep coma. I'm projecting my spirit so that-"
Man in bed: "Oh, my God!"
Glowing woman: "Listen, before you go any further, we need to discuss something."

Caption (below panel): I quickly ascertained that there was no possibility of a threesome.

Votey:
The glowing woman (now drawn in plain black-and-white line art) gestures emphatically toward a second woman.

Glowing woman: "I couldn't even touch you!"
Second woman: "That's not what this is about!"

An SMBC comic. Main panel: a man lies in bed with a red-haired partner. At the bedside floats a glowing green, translucent woman who says, "Honey - my body is in a deep coma. I'm projecting my spirit so that-". The man exclaims "Oh, my God!" and the spirit continues, "Listen, before you go any further, we need to discuss something." A caption below reads: "I quickly ascertained that there was no possibility of a threesome." The joke: the man's first reaction to his comatose wife's astral projection is hope for a threesome. Votey (aftercomic, black-and-white): the glowing woman gestures at another woman, insisting "I couldn't even touch you!" The other woman snaps back, "That's not what this is about!"
