A three-panel comic showing the same bespectacled woman speaking at a lectern in each panel. Panel 1, captioned 'HOW YOU PLAN TO END TALKS:', she gestures confidently and says, 'And thus, the conclusion is self-evident.' Panel 2, captioned 'HOW YOU ALWAYS END TALKS:', she stands flat and deflated, saying awkwardly, 'Uh. So. Yeah.' Panel 3, captioned 'SOLUTION: CONVERT IT TO LATIN', she gestures confidently again but says the same fumbling words rendered as fake Latin: 'Vah. Sic. Etiam.' The joke is that translating the embarrassing filler-word ending into Latin makes it sound scholarly. Votey: a green chalkboard with handwritten chalk text reading '. . . v.s.e.', abbreviating the Latin filler phrase.
