A man with brown hair, seen from behind, pitches a product to an older gray-haired man in a suit and red tie sitting behind a desk. The brown-haired man says, "But it's a totally new form of candy! It's more malty than anyone thought humanity was capable of!" The seated man flatly refuses: "Absolutely not!" and "No!" Below the panel is a yellow candy box covered in malt balls, branded "MALTOCAUST" — a pun on "malt" and "Holocaust." Votey: handwritten red text reading "The final solution for your craving," extending the dark Holocaust pun.
