Votey:
The bald man with glasses, eyes closed and smiling, says:
Man: "I'm willing to go as high as 40% on this."

Title banner reads "RETIREMENT HOME PICKUP LINES." The main panel shows two elderly people in close-up: a gray-haired woman in large round glasses in the foreground, and behind her a bald man in glasses, a suit, and a red tie leaning toward her. He delivers a pickup line: "Are you a senior discount at a consignment store? Because I'd like to see your clothes 35% off." The woman's expression is flat and unamused. In the votey aftercomic, drawn in plain black-and-white line art, the same bald man smiles with his eyes closed and presses on, negotiating the joke like a price: "I'm willing to go as high as 40% on this."
