An office meeting is being held in a room in a high rise. The leader is giving a speech on a microphone but the desk he and his colleagues are using is the top of a grand piano.

A reference to "The Man That Got Away" by Judy Garland, which is a famous pop song about a lost love that is sung with a piano accompaniment. The cartoon depicts a boss playing piano during a meeting --- and so, the popular lyric is modified by replacing "man" by "account". Instead of a lost love, the song becomes about a more benign case: a business deal that fell through. It's funny in part because the boss is not only acting a bit over-dramatic, but also, forcing his employees to listen to his signing, which isn't exactly professional.
