An elderly couple sits side by side on a brown couch. A caption across the top reads "NEVER MARRY A SOCIOLOGIST." The white-haired woman, wearing big round glasses and a pink sweater, turns to her white-haired husband and asks, "Were you faithful and kind to me for six decades because you're a good person, or was that just signalling." The man stares ahead with a flat, uneasy expression. In the votey aftercomic, a hand-drawn close-up of the man's worried face shows him saying in a small voice, "faithful?" — revealing he was not, in fact, faithful.
