Dilbert inquires about the purpose of the project, but Wally evades the question, stating he hasn't studied it thoroughly.

Key Points:

• The project is classified as a "secret project."
• Dilbert is unsure about the project's purpose and asks Wally for clarification.
• Wally dodges the question, claiming he hasn't studied the project in detail.

Humor:
