There are two men in the desert. One man is in a business suit with briefcase standing next to another man in a t-shirt and shorts who is crawling. The man who is crawling has his tongue out and looks thirsty. The man in the suit is talking.
It is unusual for a man to be out walking in the desert in a suit and tie. It is also unusual for anyone to be out in the desert crawling and thirsty.
What is the man in the suit saying? Why are they out in the desert?
First we discuss my percentage of any water you find, real or imagined.

Lawyers are known for both being overly formal and also, for their greediness. Instead of helping the man find water as a sane person would do, the lawyer is pre-negotiating a water contract. This joke is a jab at laywers, who are apparently so pragmatic and greedy that they might let someone die of thirst rather than not get their share.
