In the first panel, a woman wearing a red top and with long brown hair is looking at her phone. The text below her reads: 'We all saw how starting at your phone all day made you miss out on the world around you.' In the second panel, the same woman is facing the viewer, wearing Google Glass (orange color) and looking to the top and to the left. The text below her reads: 'With these, you can now completely ignore the world with a clear conscience.'

Panel 1 (the character is visible in full, his hands are facing the ceiling): 'Not counting spam, about 50 billion emails are sent every day [drawing of lots of envelopes]. Let's say about one in ten of those is read on Gmail. That's 5 billion. [drawing of a Gmail-styled envelope]'. Panel 2 (slightly closer, the characters is visible from head to waist): 'Now let's say that it takes a well trained Googler a couple of minutes, on average, to read through each of these emails and to choose the best ads to place on the right. Round that to 100 seconds. That's a total of 500 billion seconds per day.' Panel 3 (slightly closer yet, the character's head and the top of his torso are visible, he is frowning on one eye only): 'If we assume a really hard-working Googler works 50 thousand seconds per day (about 14 hours), then we need at least 10 millions email-reading Googlers.' 'But as of today, Google only employs about 30 thousand people...' 'So...' Panel 4 (even closer, only the character's face is visible, his mouth is wide open and he is raising his fist into the air): 'This proves that not only Google reads your email but they have a WHOLE SECRET COUNTRY full of employees doing it!!!'

Four puppets appear on the puppet stage, one looking like an Android-branded robot, one with a Google-colored tie and a white shirt, another in the form of a Gmail logo with eyes, and the last a female character with a pony tail. The four arms controlling the puppets are quite visible. Panel 1: the Android puppet says 'Droid rage!! Aaahh!', the character with the Google tie says: 'I'm the evil Google Apps!'. Panel 2: The Gmail puppet says 'I'm the Gmail man, mwahahaaaa!' and the last puppet says 'On no!! I've been scroogled!'. A guy wearing a green top appears to the left of the puppet theater and says '?'. Panel 3: the guy who has just appeared says 'Have you guys ever thought about using your time and money to make your own products better instead?'. Panel 4: the two heads of the puppeteers move up slightly, we can see their eyes, looking at the guy. Everyone is silent. Panel 5: the guy walks away, the first puppeteer says 'Wait, you can do that?', the second puppeteer says 'Actually, we can't. All the best engineers are going to other companies. Bashing is all we have left.'

The early robots aren't walking straight, leaning forward, and are of a slightly darker shade of green. The walk more and more straight and smile more and more as the robot evolves. Each robot is eating the dessert corresponding to its code name (cupcake, donut, eclair, frozen yoghurt, gingerbread, honeycomb, ice cream sandwich, jelly bean, keylime pie).
