PANEL ONE: Two stern cops stand in front of a bulletin board, on which are displayed mug shots of three gangland murder suspects. The first photo is covered up by a "DECEASED" label, the second is James D'Amato, and the third is Okay-Shape Tony.
DETECTIVE 1: We gotta stop the killer before he strikes again!
DETECTIVE 2: Madame LaGoosh, are you SURE this time?
LAGOOSH: Yes, the spirit is very clear now!
PANEL TWO: Consulting medium Madame LaGoosh connects to the ethereal planes by touching her head.
MEDIUM: It's saying... Okay-Shape Tony is COMPLETELY INNOCENT!
MEDIUM: This OTHER man is the one you seek! I'm sure of it!
PANEL THREE: The detectives enter D'Amato's apartment. He seems too dead to be the killer.
PANEL FOUR: Back at the station, the detectives slap a pair of cuffs on the medium.
DETECTIVE 2: YOU'RE GOING TO JAIL, YOU FRAUD!
LAGOOSH: But the spirits! They're never wrong!
PANEL FIVE: Madame LaGoosh is dragged off in cuffs, yelling and protesting. In a nearby alley, the spirit accepts a stack of bills from Okay-Shape Tony.
LAGOOSH: THE SPIRITS ARE NEVER WROOOOOOOOONG!
