A woman with glasses sits across a desk from her red-haired attorney in a suit. She asks, "You think we'll win this sexism suit?" The attorney replies confidently, "Don't worry. We've carefully packed the jury with stupid bitches-" then immediately catches himself in a smaller, panicked speech bubble: "Oh geez! Sorry!" A caption below reads: "My attorney then explained what a jury is." The joke is that the attorney's casual sexism undermines the very sexism lawsuit they're pursuing. Votey (black-and-white aftercomic): The same man holds up a crude sock puppet on his hand and, voicing it, declares, "Mr. Jury says 'Guilty! Guilty! Guilty.'" -- his absurd misunderstanding of what a jury actually is.
