Panel 1 (single panel):
A meeting around a table. Two grayish-green aliens (seen from behind, with large elongated heads) sit on the left facing a group of human men in suits on the right. One man has a red tie, another wears a blue suit; papers and a coffee cup are on the table.
Alien: OUR SCIENTIFIC ADVANCES HAVE ALLOWED US TO MOVE BEYOND THE NEED FOR SEX.
Human (man at the table): YEAH, OKAY, WE GET IT. COULD YOU PLEASE GET BACK TO FASTER-THAN-LIGHT TRAVEL?
Caption (below panel): I don't know about you, but I'm starting to get tired of those constantly masturbating aliens.
Votey:
A single alien gestures with one hand, standing beside a whiteboard or screen covered in alien-looking symbols.
Alien: AND THEN YOU ACTIVATE THE MMM...MMM... OH, YEAH... THE INERTIAL DAMPENERS.

A four-panel-style single SMBC panel showing a meeting at a conference table. On the left, two gray-green aliens with large elongated heads sit with their backs to the viewer; on the right sit several human men in business suits. One alien says, "Our scientific advances have allowed us to move beyond the need for sex." A human replies, "Yeah, okay, we get it. Could you please get back to faster-than-light travel?" A caption below reads: "I don't know about you, but I'm starting to get tired of those constantly masturbating aliens." In the votey (aftercomic), a single alien stands beside a board covered in alien symbols, gesturing and saying, "And then you activate the mmm...mmm... oh, yeah... the inertial dampeners," implying it is getting sexual pleasure from explaining the technology.
