Panel 1:
A masked man in a purple costume bursts in: SIR! MARTINEZ HAS ESCAPED! HE'S SOMEWHERE ON THE ISLAND!
An older blond man in a purple suit and glasses sits in an armchair, fingers steepled.
Panel 2 (split diagonally):
Left: A view through a window of the masked henchman standing outside.
Right: Extreme close-up of the seated man's face, eyes closed solemnly: NOW WE MUST PLAY... THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME.
Panel 3:
The two men, each riding/wearing a large brown grizzly bear, face off across a tennis net. The blond man swings a tennis racket; the masked man holds a lacrosse stick. A shuttlecock or projectile explodes in a starburst in the air between them.
Votey:
A man with reddish, shoulder-length hair points at the viewer, looking exasperated and disheveled: IT'S 4 AM! SCREW YOUR GODDAMN VOTEY!

Three panels parodying 'The Most Dangerous Game.' Panel 1: a masked henchman in purple rushes to tell his seated, bespectacled blond boss, 'SIR! MARTINEZ HAS ESCAPED! HE'S SOMEWHERE ON THE ISLAND!' Panel 2: a split frame shows the henchman through a window and an ominous close-up of the boss with eyes closed declaring, 'NOW WE MUST PLAY... THE MOST DANGEROUS GAME.' Panel 3: the supposedly deadly game is revealed to be the two men each riding a giant grizzly bear, batting a projectile across a tennis net with a tennis racket and a lacrosse stick. Votey: a tired, disheveled man with reddish hair points at the reader and snaps, 'IT'S 4 AM! SCREW YOUR GODDAMN VOTEY!'
