A four-panel comic. Panel 1: a red-haired man tells a brown-haired man, "UGH! I hate that phrase! The enemy of your enemy is NOT your friend. The enemy of your enemy is your ALLY." Panel 2: the brown-haired man asks "What's the difference?" and the red-haired man replies, "Well, for example, you wouldn't invite the enemy of your enemy to an ice cream party." Panel 3: both men, shown in separate close-ups, look thoughtful and uneasy. Panel 4: a banner reads "SOON..." Several people sit at a long table eating ice cream, including a bald man with a swastika tattooed on his forehead glaring angrily. The red-haired man says to the group, "We're both opposed to comb-overs" — the joke being that he found common ground with a neo-Nazi over their shared baldness, an absurd "enemy of your enemy is your ally" alliance. Votey aftercomic: a close-up of the bald swastika-foreheaded man scowling and saying, "They must be eliminated" — implying the comb-over wearers are now his target.
