[edit] Overview

Ratbert accidentally launches Dilbert's DNA collecting unmanned model rocket. Upon its return, the rocket finds its way to Dilbert's backside, impregnating him with the collected samples.

[edit] Plot

Dilbert creates a model rocket programmed to collect samples of extraterrestrial life and return to him upon completion. Ratbert unwittingly activates the device prematurely. The rocket then proceeds to collect alien DNA samples (more precisely, sperm and egg samples) from a nearby UFO, a surrogate hillbilly, a skanky cow, and a team of engineers, as well as collecting a sample of nanomachines. An unfertilized egg collected by the rocket is then simultaneously inseminated by the array of sperm samples shortly before the rocket returns home. Home, of course, being Dilbert's posterior.

Unbeknownst to Dilbert, the collected samples were deposited within him, rendering him pregnant. He gradually begins to exhibit startlingly feminine characteristics and his coworkers eventually conclude that he's a woman. Dogbert and Dilmom, having previously kept it a secret, tell Dilbert of his pregnancy. Dilbert then goes to Fusilli Cafe and HMO for a checkup. The episode cliffhangers with Dr. Eduardo fainting over the results of Juan's manual ultrasound, and Dilbert gasping over the same.

[edit] Notes

This episode parodies the 1994 Arnold Schwarzenegger film, Junior.
