Single-panel comic. In a kitchen, a blonde woman in glasses (back to viewer, foreground) tells a younger man with reddish hair sitting at a table: "Okay, but if I help you out, you have to start wearing nice collared shirts." He whines, "Aww mommmm..." A caption beneath the panel reads: "I elected to hide the body myself" - implying the narrator chose to deal with a dead body alone rather than ask this mother (perhaps his own) for help with the price of her nagging. Votey: a rough sketch of the same young man's face with the text above him reading "I'm glad you're just a hallucination!" - revealing the conversation was imagined.
