Panel 1:
A red-haired person (in a blue shirt): The Amish are some of God's most pious followers. Why would he afflict them with a high incidence of polydactyly?
An older bald man with glasses: The Lord works in mysterious ways.

Panel 2 (banner reads "EARLIER..."):
An angel sitting on clouds: The Amish still refuse to masturbate.
A voice from off-panel (near a glowing golden disc): Time to send them some temptation.

Votey:
A voice (speech bubble pointing at the same golden disc, now drawn in black-and-white): Also neckbeards.

A two-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: A red-haired person in a blue shirt talks with an older bald man in glasses against a green background. The red-haired person asks, "The Amish are some of God's most pious followers. Why would he afflict them with a high incidence of polydactyly?" The old man replies, "The Lord works in mysterious ways." Panel 2, labeled "EARLIER...": A blond winged angel sits on clouds in a blue sky and says, "The Amish still refuse to masturbate." A voice from off-panel, near a glowing golden disc covered in small triangular markings, answers, "Time to send them some temptation." The disc resembles a coin or sun being readied as the divine "affliction." Votey (aftercomic): The same circular markered disc is shown in rough black-and-white, with a voice adding, "Also neckbeards."
