Main comic: A single panel with a yellow caption banner reading "At some point in the past, a marine biologist was very proud of herself." Below, a smiling woman with long brown hair holds a pencil over a yellow notepad and says in a speech bubble, "This will be called the circalittoral zone. It's dominated by clams." Beside her, a person with dark curly hair and glasses watches with a flat, unimpressed expression. The joke is the deadpan grandeur of a scientist proudly naming a dull stretch of seabed dominated by clams.
Votey: A crudely drawn woman sits at a desk, smiling slightly, and says, "There. That'll fix any respect I got for yesterday's comic."
