A six-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: a woman and man sit up in bed; the woman complains, "I can't get any of the boys in algebra to do their freakin' homework!" Panel 2, captioned "LATER": the two lie in bed together, the man now shirtless, as she says, "Why don't you sleep on it? I have a feeling there'll turn around." Panel 3: the shirtless man sits at a desk writing out a problem. Panel 4, captioned "THE FOLLOWING WEEK": the woman, now a teacher in front of a class, holds up a paper and announces, "Sorry! Every one of you got 100% correct! Any reward you want, it's yours!" Panel 5: a classroom of students reacts. Panel 6: a close-up of a female student who says, "So... candy, or...", implying the boys did the homework hoping for a sexual reward. Below the comic, the algebra problem is shown: "8x + 0.5x = 12. Solve for x." Votey: a single panel showing a freckled boy grinning. A speech bubble says, "So, do you have a condom?" A girl replies, "What? No!" and the boy responds, "Ooh... naughty."
