Dilbert/Heartwarming


 * For a moment, Dilbert, Wally, and Alice are all happy with each other. Take a look.
 * The extra-length Sunday strips are usually self-contained gags divorced from the (already admittedly loose) continuity of the regular strips, but there has been at least one exception: the Sunday before Christmas 1992, this strip was run, then referenced several days later here, on Christmas eve... and again here on Christmas Day. Say it with me now: n'awwwwwwwwwwwww.

Animated Series:
 * At the end of "The Gift", when Dilbert runs out of time to get Dilmom a birthday gift and has to get her a gift certificate, it looks like she's just going to treat him like a total joke yet again. However, it's let slip that Dilbert went to the mall(which he is absolutely terrified of) to look for said gift, and Dilmom seems genuinely touched.
