A four-panel comic. A father tells his red-haired son, "Son, love is MAGIC." The son asks, "Because it can create something from nothing?" The father replies, "Because no matter how real it looks, you know it's fake." The son says, "I wish you'd stop explaining your metaphors," and the father adds, "Friendship is also magic and democracy," cheerfully undercutting his own cynical metaphor. Votey: A speech bubble reads, "The real magic, son... is DRUGS!" while the father is drawn below looking dazed and strung-out.
