Summary:

The comic strip features Dilbert, a bespectacled man with black hair, wearing a blue shirt and red tie, and his boss, a woman with brown hair, wearing a purple top. The scene unfolds as follows:

  • Dilbert's wife is introduced as the smart one in the family.
  • The boss asks if Dilbert has learned anything from his wife, to which he responds, "Everything I know about management I learned from her."
  • The boss inquires about the length of time Dilbert has been married, prompting Dilbert to ask if he has a minute.
  • The boss responds with a curt "Whatever," and Dilbert retorts, "Whatever? Are you mad at me?"
  • The boss explains that everything is fine, but Dilbert remains skeptical, asking if he has a problem with her, and why she just won't tell him.
  • The boss responds, "It's nothing. She's taught you well," implying that Dilbert's wife has been a good influence on him.
