A seven-panel comic. A woman in a lab coat and a man play the classic high-five gag: "HIGH FIVE!", "ON THE SIDE!", "DOWN LOW!" — then she yanks her hand away as a small man named Jon lunges to slap it: "TOO SLOW!" She raises her hand to start another round. The mood turns dark: in a black silhouette panel she says "I'M SORRY, JON." In the final panel, set in a hallway, an angry man confronts a devastated Jon, revealing the consequence: "THEY KICKED ME OUT OF THE AIR FORCE, SARAH!" — the failed handshake somehow cost Jon his military career. Votey: a close-up of the smiling woman raising her hand, saying "HIGH FIVE!", ready to do it all again.
