It's a good job they explained the joke.

Wasn't there some theory about comics being improved by removing the final panel?

Definitely. I was going to post this:

Remove 4th panel.

Wasn't there a subreddit about improving comics? Usually just removing the panel that rams the punch line down your throat.
