A child sits up in a pink-blanketed bed, looking scared, and cries out, "Daddy! There's a monster under my bed!" The father kneels beside the bed holding a flask and replies with mock alarm, "Oh my god! I think he got into this flask of bourbon! I'll see if I can get him out!" — using the imaginary monster as a pretext to drink. A caption beneath reads, "Being a father is all about multitasking." In the votey aftercomic, a close-up of the father shows him saying, "Got most of him, but there's a little bit trapped at the bottom," implying he has drained nearly the whole flask.
