Official transcript

Dilbert opens his door and two agents wearing dark sunglasses and holding guns show him their identification badges. The agent says, "We're the government. We came to confiscate your so-called 'Happiness Drug.'"

As the agent holds his gun to Dilbert's nose, Dilbert says, "It's not a drug! It's just a mixture of fruits and vegetables that makes you feel happy! You can't outlaw good nutrition!"

The other agent says, "Hmm . . . I guess that wouldn't make sense, would it?"

The agent says, "Ignore him. He's a new guy."

AI Analysis

Comic Strip Title: "Happiness Drug"

Summary:

The comic strip, originally published in 1993, revolves around a group of men in suits and sunglasses, armed with guns, attempting to confiscate a man's "happiness drug." The man, wearing a white lab coat, explains that his happiness drug is not a substance but rather a mixture of fruits and vegetables that makes him feel happy. He argues that outlawing good nutrition is not a viable solution.

The men, seemingly unaware of the man's explanation, continue to threaten him with their guns. The strip humorously highlights the absurdity of the situation and the men's misunderstanding of the concept of happiness.
