A man sits up in bed holding an ice pack to his forehead, looking annoyed; the back of another person's head is in the foreground. He complains: "Wow, yeah, screaming. Not like I have a headache or anything." The joke implies he's reacting irritably to a crying baby as if it were a hangover. Votey (aftercomic): a rough sketch of an upside-down newborn baby's face just after birth, with an off-panel voice saying, "Eww. Another slimy newborn."
