A two-panel comic about frogs. In the main panel, two green frogs sit by a marshy shoreline under a gray, stormy sky. A small frog on the right, wide-eyed and upset, confronts a larger frog on the left, reeling off an enormous list of names: "How could you? Even little John? And Mary? Michael? Jennifer? David, Jessica, James, Sarah, Robert, Emily, William, Amanda, Richard, Ashley, Joseph, Megan, Thomas, Heather, Charles, Melissa, Christopher, Stephanie, Daniel, Rachel, Matthew, Rebecca, Anthony, Nicole, Mark, Kimberly, Paul, Lisa, Steven, Michelle, Kevin, Laura, Jason, Amber, Brian, Samantha, Eric, Elizabeth, Joshua, Christine, Andrew, Brittany, Jonathan, Angela, Ryan, Courtney..." The names fill nearly the whole sky. A caption below reads: "Infidelity among r-strategists is devastating." The joke: r-strategist animals like frogs have huge numbers of offspring, so being accused of cheating means naming dozens of children. In the votey (aftercomic), a close-up of the larger frog's face shows it reassuring the other: "It's okay, baby. They all got eaten by a seagull anyway!"
