A comic panel shows a bespectacled older woman at a table explaining something to a dark-haired man and a light-haired woman. She says: "By stepping back into a region of spacetime so warped that you can go to the time prior to this fish's existence and eat the molecular antecedents that would later become its body." A caption beneath reads: "The push for ever fresher sushi led to some startling developments in fundamental physics." In the votey (aftercomic), a person with closed eyes says contentedly, "I feel bad for people who can't have hyperfresh produce" — extending the absurd time-travel freshness obsession from sushi to vegetables.
