The Pitch:

  • The vendor introduces himself as a software vendor and claims to have formed a relationship with Dilbert.
  • He then reveals that his software is designed to be easy to use, requiring only half of the user's money to function.
  • When Dilbert asks if the software has ever worked for an ex-wife, the vendor confidently responds, "Yes, it worked for my ex-wife."

The Punchline:

  • The vendor's response implies that his software has a track record of success, specifically with ex-wives.

Overall:
