A two-character cartoon. At a table, a red-haired woman gestures to a blonde woman in sunglasses holding a wine glass and says, "My parents were in a plane that nearly crashed today! Can you imagine how torn I was?" A caption below reads: "It's hard being an heiress" — implying she's conflicted between worry for her parents and the prospect of inheritance. Votey: A woman on the phone, looking upset, says, "Daddy died? In THIS economy?" — reacting to a death mainly through the lens of bad financial timing.
