An orange caption banner reads: "LIFE TIP: When leaving a conversation, you can say anything, and people will assume they misheard some form of goodbye." Below, a single panel against a purple background: a smiling blonde woman waves off a dark-haired man in a green shirt, saying "Well, I gotta go. Hot dog squirrel comets." The man, looking mildly puzzled, replies "Uh, yeah. Seeya," having apparently registered it as a normal goodbye. Votey: the joke goes literal. The blonde woman, arms spread wide and grinning, rides a giant hot dog like a rocket sled with a glowing comet trail behind her, a brown squirrel tucked alongside.
