A child with reddish-orange hair sits by a fireplace, seen from behind, writing in a journal. The diary entry, in cursive, reads: "May 27. Our attempt at the erection of a breastwork was once again stymied due to the girls giggling. My council has yet to determine what they are laughing about." A caption beneath reads: "The children's revolution was quickly defeated." The joke: the children play at being a serious military council, but the word "breastwork" (a military fortification) makes the girls giggle, derailing their revolution. Votey (aftercomic): a child shouts with mouth wide open, "STOP LAUGHING! THE ADULTS ARE COMING! COMING FAST!"
