Greetings Warriors:

I'm trying to catch up the schedule.  Here are the dialogues in [comic for
October 16][1], followed by my translation.  Obviously I didn't do the third
sentence very well.  How to translate the hesitative "um... ?" (Do Klingons
hesitate?)  Corrections and advises are appreciated.

    Dilbert: "I stayed up all night working on Mindy's software because
              she threatened me if I didn't."
     DIlbot: {wa'Hu' ram Hoch mInDI patvaD vIvumtaH mubuQmo'.} (1)

       Boss: "Really? Threats make you work all night?"
        pIn: {'oH teH'a'? ram Hoch bIvumtaH 'e' DabuQlu'mo''a'?} (2)

    Dilbert: "Um... No?"
     DIlbot: {ghobe'.} (3)

       Boss: "Work on this all night or I'll punch you."
     DIlbot: {ramvam Hoch Qu'vamvaD yIvumtaH pagh yIbech!} (4)
