Panel 1:
A blond boy in a blue shirt holds up a graded essay marked with a red "F". A man with brown hair and a mustache stands beside him.
Boy: HEHEHE...
Text on paper: Essay [F] The reason I like... that day

Panel 2:
The boy holds up the paper toward the man, looking annoyed.
Boy: YOU KNOW, BEING AN ADULT AND GIVING TEN-YEAR OLDS AN F MINUS FOR NO REASON IS BASICALLY THE SAME AS KICKING A PUPPY.

Panel 3:
Close-up on the man's face, looking thoughtful.
Man: I NEVER THOUGHT OF IT THAT WAY.

Panel 4:
The man dances joyfully through a forest with his arms spread wide. A puppy appears to have been kicked off into the lower-right of the panel, with a small impact burst.

Votey:
A loose, sketchy close-up of the man's face, mouth open in an exclamation.

Four-panel comic. Panel 1: a blond boy in a blue shirt grins ("HEHEHE...") while holding an essay graded with a red "F". Panel 2: the boy, now annoyed, holds the paper toward a mustached man and says, "You know, being an adult and giving ten-year olds an F minus for no reason is basically the same as kicking a puppy." Panel 3: close-up of the man looking thoughtful, saying "I never thought of it that way." Panel 4: the man dances gleefully through a forest with his arms outstretched, having just kicked a puppy off-panel to the lower right — he took the comparison as a suggestion rather than a rebuke. Votey: a loose sketch of the man's face with his mouth open, captioned "JAZZ HANDS!"
