This episode is good because of Dilbert's connection to the factory workers. Also Alice's starts to get a connecttion to the toddlers and starts to think of adopting one.
This was my favorite things on the episode because the way Alice keeps attempting to loev the toddlers they contine to cause her more pain and hate.
Dilbert also has problams to the Elbonians because if you are left handed you are basicly a slave adn guess what...right Dilberts is left handed. Then Dilbert helps the slaves. this is another high point of the episode. A great episode chek it out.moreless
Episode Summary
EDIT
Dilbert and the project team travel to the country of Elbonia, where the Gruntmaster 6000 is to be manufactured. In the right-handed country, left-handed Dilbert is put to work in the abysmal conditions of the factory's production line, so he does the only thing he can, he tries to unionize the left-handed labor force. Meanwhile, Dogbert enjoys diplomatic immunity, a naked Wally enjoys the mud of Elbonia, Alice gets in touch with her maternal instincts and the Pointy-Haired Boss enjoys his vacation only he doesn't know it's Elbonia.moreless

TRIVIA (3)
ADD TRIVIA-
To explain the previous goofs, they clearly say at the dinner "You seem to lean left," so although right handed, he may eat left handed, which isn't entirely uncommon. He could have gotten in trouble at first for doing one thing left handed, and the attempts at execution later where because he tried to unionize the workers.
-
Dilbert is right-handed in the comic strip.
-
Dilbert is persecuted for being left-handed when he uses his left hand to use his fork. Later in the episode you can clearly see him write on a clipboard with his right hand
