A four-panel comic. Panel 1: a dark-haired woman hands a dream catcher to a young girl, saying it catches bad dreams and that she's had it since she was a little girl, now passing it on. Panel 2: the woman muses that if it caught all the girl's bad dreams it must be stuffed full of them; the dream catcher erupts into a lurid, fanged monster face with skulls and swirling colors pouring out of it. Panel 3: the dream catcher hangs calm and empty again, with the words 'I AM FREE NOW' beside it, implying the released bad dreams have escaped. Panel 4: the woman stands with a blank, uneasy expression. Votey: a close-up of the woman's face, now grinning, saying 'That went great!' obliviously.
