A close-up of a bald man with a long, full gray beard, drawn to represent the ancient Greek philosopher Zeno. He looks slightly put-upon as he says, "Honey, I'd love to, but it's not as if I can traverse infinite regions in finite time!" — invoking Zeno's paradoxes as an excuse to avoid a chore. A caption beneath reads: "Fun Fact: Zeno never took out the garbage." Votey (aftercomic): handwritten text in a hand-drawn box reads, "I will almost, but never quite, get tired of Zeno jokes." — itself a play on Zeno's paradox of never quite reaching a limit.
