A two-panel-wide single scene. A man with reddish hair in a red shirt stands talking to a woman seated at a desktop computer in a teal shirt. He says, "Wow. You're the only person I know who puts the word 'final' in a document exactly when it's the final version. No 'Final18' or 'Final_thisone_forrealv12.'" She replies, "It's all about organization, baby." A caption beneath reads: "Filenaming Strategy: the first time you want to write 'Final' on a document, call it 'FinalDraft_versionNegative400'." The joke: she avoids the endless 'final-final' renaming spiral by starting her version numbers deep in the negatives so the true final still lands at a sensible number. Votey (aftercomic): a rough hand-drawn close-up of the man's startled face saying, "You can also project file numbering into the imaginary plane."
