My Entry in The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #935

The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #935 appeared in the issue of March 10, 2025. A couple walking in the woods comes upon a very large, baited mousetrap. The woman speaks. The drawing is by P. C. Vey.

"There's something dark about this scavenger hunt."

These captions didn't spring eternal:

"The Johnsons must think we're idiots."
"Help yourself, but I'm lactose intolerant."
"I'm suspicious. There's no sell-by date."
