A two-part comic mocking Star Wars themed life events. The top header reads 'GOOD IDEA: STAR WARS WEDDING' over a robed couple with crossed lightsabers raised behind them. The middle header reads 'BAD IDEA: STAR WARS DIVORCE'; a bearded man scowls and says 'I find your lack of faith disturbing!' In the final panel a distressed woman shouts 'You were emotionally unfaithful before I was physically unfaithful!' and an exasperated man with his hand on his face says 'Mr. Burns, please paraphrase your grievance as a quote from the original trilogy.' The joke is that the divorce proceeding requires all grievances to be phrased as Star Wars lines. Votey aftercomic: header 'GREAT IDEA: STAR WARS FUNERAL' over a person throwing their arms up in anguish, head thrown back, wailing 'Nooooo!' (the famous Vader cry).
