A four-panel comic. Panel 1: a woman walks away from a man seated with a tablet; she asks, "How'd the sex talk go?" and he replies, "Hilariously." Panel 2: a close-up of the woman looking skeptical. Panel 3: a close-up of the man saying, "Hilarious is the goal, right?" Panel 4, labeled "Earlier...": the man sits on a couch next to an unimpressed young boy and gestures while saying, "Isn't it weird how socks can get pregnant?" The joke is that the father gave his son a deliberately absurd, joke version of the sex talk. Votey aftercomic: the smiling boy thinks in a bubble, "I am evolution's greatest hero," implying he believes the nonsense and is now hilariously misinformed.
