Comic Strip Title: "The CEO and the Senator"

Summary:

The comic strip features the CEO and the Senator in a humorous exchange. The CEO, accompanied by his dog, Dogbert, is on trial for bribery. The Senator, who is also present, reveals that the CEO's wife is a consultant, despite the fact that she thinks "present value" is a type of gift card.
