Panel 1: A balding man with a sly expression leans toward an unseen figure.
Man: "HEY GIRL... ARE YOU PROLONGED SOCIAL ISOLATION? ...BECAUSE YOU ARE MAKING ME CRAZY TONIGHT!"
Panel 2: Close-up of the same man grinning smugly, raising an eyebrow.
Panel 3: The man stands, looking expectant.
Man: "WELL?"
Panel 4: Pulling back, the man is revealed standing in only his underwear, arms raised pleadingly, addressing a mop standing upright beside him. He looks distressed.
Man: "WELL ARE YOU!?"
Votey: A close-up line-art drawing of the man (shown in profile) reaching out toward the mop, which stands on its handle like a person. Small bits of text near his mouth ("Yes" and indistinct words) suggest he is still talking to it.

A four-panel comic. A balding man delivers a pickup line to someone off-panel: "Hey girl... are you prolonged social isolation? ...Because you are making me crazy tonight!" He grins smugly and waits, asking "Well?" In the final wide panel he is revealed standing in just his underwear, arms raised, talking to a mop propped upright beside him, demanding "Well are you!?" — the joke being that isolation has driven him to flirt with a mop. The votey is a sketchy line drawing of him in profile reaching toward the mop as if it were a date, still speaking to it.
