Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

When a cold epidemic hits the office, Dilbert realizes the importance of an office door to stop the germ-spreading cycle. The cold season leads to mutations as employees sprout new limbs and the Pointy-Haired Boss decides, with Dogbert's prompting, to build a new office building. Dilbert gets himself put in charge of the new building to ensure that he gets an office with a door.

[edit] Notes

The new building, a skyscraper, is built like the Tower of Babel. It also includes various buildings and landmarks from around the world, such as the World Trade Center, the Arc de Triomphe, the Titanic and the Petronas Twin Towers.
