A two-part SMBC comic. Main panel: a red banner caption reads "EXECUTION STRATEGY: TRY TO SAY THE MOST DISCONCERTING THING POSSIBLE BEFORE YOU DIE." Below, a red-haired man is locked in a guillotine, head and arm sticking out over a wooden block. Three witnesses watch through a window to the right. Mid-execution, the man begins, "THE CURE FOR CANCER IS-". Votey (aftercomic): his grinning severed head flies through the air with motion lines and blood trailing behind, thinking in a bubble, "SUCKERS!" He died on purpose withholding the cure as his final disconcerting prank.
