A four-panel SMBC comic. Panel 1: a bespectacled teacher leans toward a curly orange-haired student and asks, "So, where's your homework?" Panel 2: the student answers nervously, "The dog ate it." Panel 3: the student, now sweating and frantic, blurts, "But the homework was to make a chocolate sculpture!" Panel 4: an extreme close-up of the student's horrified face, eyes wide, realizing the dog has eaten something toxic. The joke: chocolate is poisonous to dogs, so the classic homework excuse becomes alarming. Votey (aftercomic): a speech bubble reads "So, I'm thinking... A+?" above a hunched, sweating, worried figure, implying the student is anxiously angling for a top grade despite (or because of) the unfolding disaster.
