Panel 1: Introduction Dilbert is approached by a representative of a water company, who introduces a brochure for their new Miracle Mineral Water Spa. The representative claims that the water will make people smarter, more beautiful, and healthier.

Panel 2: Skepticism Dilbert is skeptical and asks if anyone has asked the representative if they drink the water themselves. The representative responds that they do not drink the water.

Panel 3: Conclusion Dilbert concludes that if the representative does not drink the water, it is unlikely to have any benefits for others. The representative is left looking foolish.

Key Takeaway The comic strip satirizes the common practice of companies making unsubstantiated claims about their products.

Accompanying textual content, such as title, tags and transcripts, is shown here if we have it. Not every comic has all of these, and they seem to be a bit hit and miss even on the official website.
