A simple comic with one wide panel against a flat orange background. A small child in red swim trunks runs along a beach toward the water while an adult chases playfully behind. Speech bubbles read: the child, "Faster, Papa, faster!"; the father, "Ha! Okay, sweet pea!"; and the child again, "This is the best day! I'm gonna remember this for the rest of my life!" A caption beneath the panel undercuts the sweet moment: "Later, it turned out the people in the comic were just pictures, without any past or any future. Less than dead, they never were." The votey (bonus panel) is plain white hand-lettering on a black square reading: "Out-sad me now, Cyanide and Happiness." — a jab at the rival webcomic known for bleak humor.
