Panel 1:
A young man with orange/red hair stands naked in a shower, water running from the showerhead onto his head. He smiles blissfully with his eyes closed.

Caption (below panel): This purity ring is working out great!
Votey:
The same young man (drawn in loose black-and-white sketch style) grins as he talks to an off-panel figure.
Off-panel voice: HAVE YOU REMAINED PURE, MY SON?
Man: FIVE TIMES TODAY ALONE!

A young red-haired man stands naked in a shower with his eyes closed and a blissful grin, water streaming over him. He says, "Ow wow. Wow, that feels good. It's like cold and hot at the same time!" A caption below reads: "This purity ring is working out great!" The joke: he interprets abstinence-pledge purity in the most literal, self-pleasure-adjacent way, treating the shower as an ecstatic experience. Votey (a rough black-and-white sketch): the grinning man is asked by an off-panel voice, "Have you remained pure, my son?" He answers proudly, "Five times today alone!" — cluelessly counting abstinence as something he repeatedly achieves.
