[Close up shot of Cueball's head and neck. Cueball is facing the left and has his arm raised.]
Cueball: Some people like to be the big spoon.
[Cueball's face and neck are still the only elements visible. Cueball is facing the right now and has lowered his hand.]
Cueball: Some people like to be the little spoon.
[A big spoon sitting atop a little spoon and a little spoon sitting atop a big spoon are depicted.]
And some brave truth-tellers point out that the metaphor makes no sense because different-sized spoons don't nest right either way. You nest same-sized spoons.
[Cueball is lying alone on a couch.]
...and apparently we sleep on the couch.
[Voice from outside the panel:]
Voice: Why are you still going on about the spoon thing?
Cueball: Because I'm right!
