The answer is DUD.

"DUD" refers to something that fails to meet expectations or does not perform as anticipated. When describing an event or situation as a "damp squib," it means that it turned out to be disappointing, ineffective, or underwhelming. The term "dud" originally referred to an ammunition or explosive device that fails to detonate or function properly, thus failing to achieve its intended purpose.

n a broader sense, "dud" can also apply to anything that fails to deliver the expected result or excitement, leading to a sense of disappointment or letdown. Therefore, a "damp squib" metaphorically compares something that fizzles out or fails to ignite (like a damp firework) to an event or situation that lacks impact or fails to live up to expectations.
