- first panel, a guy in a hat talking with a passersby on a roadside: "there's a certain type of brain that's easily disabled. if you show it an interesting problem, it involuntarily drops everything else to work on it."
- second panel, conversation continues, angle has changed to bring a crosswalk with a person waiting to cross opposite the speaker: "this has led me to invent a new sport: nerd-sniping. see that physicist crossing the road?"
- third panel, same angle, the person has begun to cross. hat guy calls out to them with a "HEY!!" and is now holding up a sign.
- fourth panel shows the sign in detail. "on an infiinte grid of ideal one-ohm resistors, what's the equivalent resistance between the two marked nodes?" two points on the grid drawn onto the sign are marked, as described.
- panel five: the street-crossing physicist has stopped in place, hand to their chin pondering the problem, speaking aloud: "It's... hm, interesting, maybe if you start with... no, wait. hm... you could--"
- panel six/seven: two panel wide semi truck zooming through the frame with a "FOOOOOM"
- panel eight: the guy the hat guy was originally talking to states "i will have no part in this," and is met in reply by hat guy saying "C'mon, make a sign, it's fun! Physicists are two points, mathematicians three."
y'all have taken my finger-painted stick-figure doodle of a mounted gun on a taur very seriously and earnestly and given it moments of your time and thought and i deeply appreciate that
