A man in a purple turban and red robe sits across from Jesus (yellow halo, brown beard, white robe with red sash) at a table. The man asks, "Hey, so you charged me a fee, which put my balance below zero, so then I got charged another fee. Can I get a refund?" Jesus, gesturing apologetically, replies, "Not without a minimum balance, sir." A caption beneath reads: "And Jesus entered the temple and drove out all those who were buying and selling in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers..." — recasting Jesus's temple cleansing as rage at overdraft-fee banking. Votey: a black-and-white close-up of Jesus's furious shouting face, yelling "SINNERS!"
