Official transcript

Dilbert and Dogbert walk through the park. Dogbert says, "I was thinking about how much I enjoy our conversations."

Dogbert continues, "They're consistently witty and intellectually stimulating."

Dogbert continues, "Then I realized that all of the witty and intellectually stimulating stuff comes from me."

Dogbert continues, "Naturally I started wondering what was the point of even having you along."

Dogbert continues, "Then I thought about lightning and how it always hits the tallest object."

Dogbert continues, "So there IS a slight statistical advantage to having you nearby."

A bolt of lightning strikes Dilbert and knocks him off his feet. Dilbert lies on the ground and says, "You aren't going to be witty now, are you?"

Dogbert replies, "How can you say that? I'm shocked!"
