Scientist: The longer we have sex, the more bizarre and unholy will be the sex acts we find desirable.

Panel 3: The scientist gestures toward the woman in the red blazer (shown in profile, foreground).
Scientist: With a long enough sexual experience, you will perceive almost any stimulation as desirable.

Panel 4: Silhouettes against black.
Woman in red blazer: So you're saying there's a way.
Scientist: I believe so, Madame President.

Panel 5: Close on the woman in the red blazer, now identified as the President, with a sly expression.

A six-panel comic. A woman scientist in a blue jacket and glasses explains to a woman in a red blazer that during sex the brain's disgust response shuts off, so with long enough sexual experience a person will find almost any stimulation desirable. In silhouette, the woman in red says "So you're saying there's a way," and the scientist replies "I believe so, Madame President." The President, smiling slyly, orders: "Bring me a hollow desk with three healthy young interns under it, ASAP." In the final panel, captioned "SOON...", the President sits at her desk holding a pen, eyes closed in pleasure, saying "And with great =OHHH YEAHHH= pride and =MMM= patriotism, I sign the new Authorization Of Force Bill" -- using the sexual-disgust-suppression trick to make herself enjoy signing a distasteful war-powers bill. Votey: a close-up of the President's blissful face saying "I'll need 10 more interns for the drone bill."
