Title caption (top banner): THE NUMBER ONE RULE OF PARENTING IS "REMEMBER TO HAVE FUN!"
Panel 1:
A man kneels down to comfort a small red-haired child in front of a door marked "X-RAY."
Man: "Don't worry, sweetie. The doctor just wants to see if there's a skeleton hiding inside your body. But, she probably won't find anything."
Votey:
A worried-looking person (with longer hair, appears to be the same child grown or a panicked figure) is shown looking shocked.
Caption: "Oh my god. There's a skull inside your head."

An orange title banner reads: 'The number one rule of parenting is "Remember to have fun!"' In the main panel, a balding man kneels to reassure a small red-haired child standing in front of a door labeled 'X-RAY.' He says, 'Don't worry, sweetie. The doctor just wants to see if there's a skeleton hiding inside your body. But, she probably won't find anything.' The joke: he's grimly (and falsely) reassuring the kid that the X-ray won't reveal the skeleton everyone obviously has. Votey (aftercomic, black-and-white sketch): a shocked, wide-eyed person stares out, with the caption 'Oh my god. There's a skull inside your head.' delivering the alarmed discovery that bodies do, in fact, contain bones.
