A four-panel comic. Panel 1: a woman in a red blazer with white glasses says, "I want to talk to you about how babies are natural scientists." Panel 2: a man, seen from behind in the foreground, eagerly asks, "Because babies are so curious?!" while the woman sits beside a small blonde child. Panel 3: the woman hesitates, saying only, "Uh..." Panel 4: the man enthusiastically says "Yeah!" while a clipboard reveals her actual list of why babies resemble scientists: "sleep poorly, make no choices for self, crying, frequently break glassware" - i.e. the miserable lifestyle of a working scientist rather than scientific curiosity. Votey: a close-up of a wide-eyed, startled face as an off-panel voice adds, "Also the low pay."
