A therapy scene. A man with dark hair, seen from behind, declares to his therapist: "There are satellites watching me. All the time. All machines are reporting to the watchers. The watchers are always watching!" The therapist, a woman wearing glasses and holding a notepad, calmly replies, "Right. Of course. But is anything bothering you?" A caption below reads: "It's getting harder and harder to diagnose paranoia." The joke is that his paranoid-sounding claims are essentially true in an age of surveillance, so the therapist treats them as plausible. Votey (aftercomic): the same man, drawn in a loose sketch style, asks, "How does amazon know I got prescribed anxiety meds?"
