Welcome children of the Scranton Industrial Park Community. Michael michael
YAY! Kids kids
Join your gangsta pumpkin on his palette truck of doom. Don't worry about a thing. Rest assured you will see me later. Bwah ha ha... [bumps into something] ... ha ha ha. Michael michael
We are doing a haunted house this Halloween. Which is actually kinda spooky because, as legend has it, on this very site there used to be a productive paper company. Jim jim
I am going to scare these kids so bad. Michael michael
This is the spookiest warehouse in the world, kids. You don't believe me? Just take a look. [Kevin chops into Erin, who is dressed as Princess Fiona] Oh. Scary, huh? This is a surgery with an octopus and a burn victim. Darryl darryl
Black widow. Angela angela
Lulu from The Fifth Element. Kelly kelly
Nobody told me what people were, alright? So... label yourselves or take what you get. Darryl darryl
I want to sell your blood! Creed creed
That's really not the trend in vampires right now. Ryan ryan
Here is an old man and a goth dude... and then the old crone from Drag Me to Hell. Darryl darryl
I'm a hobo. Meredith meredith
I asked for a list. [Dwight rides in on a tricycle, laughing diabolically] ...and a clown. Darryl darryl
I'm Jigsaw, idiot. Dwight dwight
You're not as scary as Book Face, over there. Darryl darryl
Yes. I am the popular social networking site known as Book Face. Jim jim
Ok, kids. You've all been so good and unbelievably patient so I think you are gonna get some candy! Darryl darryl
Yeah! [a chair falls over, Michael is seen hanging from the ceiling with a noose around his neck - the kids scream] Kids kids
Kids, just remember, suicide is never the answer. Alright? Michael michael
Why is Christmas the only holiday that can have a message? Michael michael
It is the easy way out. You are not alone. Michael michael
What the hell is wrong with you? Darryl darryl
Who wants candy? Michael michael
...and then I think I'm going to go to the Garlic Festival. Michael michael
Wow. Jim jim
Sounds like fun. You guys would love it. Michael michael
I bet we would. Jim jim
They have a TCBY booth. Michael michael
Cool. Jim jim
The same stuff you get downtown. Michael michael
Mmm-hmm. Jim jim
Do you like TCBY? Michael michael
Who doesn't? Jim jim
I can't believe it's- I can't believe it's yogurt. Uh... it'll be fun Michael michael
I confirmed with Raskin Design and they're expecting the both of you in an hour. Erin erin
Oh. Actually, it's just gonna be me. Jim jim
They said the both of you. Erin erin
That is a mistake. Jim jim
You should give them a call. Check that out. Michael michael
Alright. Let's clear this up. [on phone] Well, there's actually been a few changes in the company and Michael and I are actually at the same level. So, I can- no. Nope. Why would that be a problem? Jim jim
Jim's a good kid. He can handle a lot but sometimes you have to call in a master. I, uh... why would you date an amateur when you could date a professional? Michael michael
Great. See ya' then. Jim jim
Wha- what? Michael michael
They said that they would feel more comfortable if you came along. Jim jim
Why don't they just want you to go by yourself? Why do they want me to come, too? I don't understand. Michael michael
I absolutely don't understand, either. Jim jim
I don't want you to feel like I'm baby-sitting you, or something. Alright. Michael michael
Alright. Jim jim
Let me get your stroller. Michael michael
Sure. Michael's a good teacher. A teacher is someone who stands right next to you your whole life and never lets you do anything. That's what a teacher is, right? Jim jim
What are you gonna call him? Michael michael
Dave. Jim jim
No. What is his name? Michael michael
Dave. Jim jim
Mr. Bourchard. They're very formal. Michael michael
Yeah. I've spoken to them on the phone. Jim jim
Yeah, well... this is not the phone. This is real life, baby, and you gotta own it. Is that what you are wearing? Michael michael
Yes, it is. Jim jim
...and that is the watch that you are going to wear? No. It is not. You should wear this watch. I will loan it to you. It is a Tankard. I highly recommend you wear that. Michael michael
No thanks. Jim jim
They are into style. Michael michael
Mmm-hmm. Jim jim
They are into appearance. We are selling success. Michael michael
...and paper. Jim jim
That's sorta secondary. [offers Jim the watch again] Michael michael
Nope. No. Jim jim
He's trying to micro-co-manage me... or co-micro... manage... me. Jim jim
Here we are outside- Pam pam
WB! Andy andy
- the Wilkes-Barre Industrial Park. Pam pam
Industrial P.! Makin' cold calls. Andy andy
The two people with the lowest sales in the quarter have to do them. Pam pam
[singing] Where are you? Dean Trophies. Suite 100. Sherman Blinds and Rugs. Suite 202. Andy andy
Here it is. [Andy is still singing] Suite 401. Pam pam
Yeah. I was gonna sing that part. Andy andy
I know. Now you don't have to. Pam pam
Except it was going to resolve the melody, so now my head hurts. Feels like I held in a sneeze. Mmm! I hate this feeling. [sings] Suite 401. Andy andy
Alright. Hi. Any messages? Michael michael
You're soaking wet. Erin erin
Uh, well, Jim and I got caught in a little flash rain, flash wind, flash lightning. Michael michael
Wow. Sounds scary. Phyllis phyllis
It was. It was. And then in an instant it wasn't. Michael michael
Why isn't Jim wet? Angela angela
I outran it. Jim jim
I don't think it rained. My hip would be throbbing. Meredith meredith
It rained. Michael michael
Michael, can I get you something? A towel? Some cocoa? Dwight dwight
Nothing. Cocoa. Michael michael
I'll just leave that suit in your office then. Jim jim
Good. Yep. Michael michael
Must be nice to have company on these cold calls. Secretary secretary
We're kind of a dynamic duo. Or trio. [points to Pam's tummy] Andy andy
How exciting! Do you guys know the sex yet? Secretary secretary
[Andy shakes his head 'no'] Oh. No, no. [laughing] We're not together. No, no, no. Definitely not. Definitely not. No. We just work together. Pam pam
[miffed] Looks like somebody's got a case of the definitelies. Andy andy
[Michael is walking around in one of Jim's suits] Um, Michael? The custodian from Raskin Design is on the line. He said they found your keys in the Koi pond. Erin erin
Ok. Thank you. Michael michael
Did you say 'Koi pond'? Stanley stanley
[phone rings] Yeah? Michael michael
Michael, people are asking questions. Erin erin
Ok. Put them on speaker. Hey guys, what's going on? Michael michael
Michael, did you you fall into a Koi pond? Phyllis phyllis
Uh... I can't really hear you. I think we have sort of a bad connection. Michael michael
Jim, did Michael fall into a Koi pond? Oscar oscar
Mmm... it's like Michael said. It was some- something else. Jim jim
It was- Ok. This is what it was. It was these bunch of idiots who had put a fish tank in the ground with no cover and no railing. Michael michael
So you fell in? Angela angela
No. Maybe I was trying to save a child that had fallen in. Michael michael
So a child had fallen in? Angela angela
Not yet! Michael michael
That is hilarious. [extends hand for a fist bump] Kevin kevin
No it is- don't! I'm not gonna bump. I'm not gonna bump. And it was not hilarious. It was very, very terrifying. [Stanley laughs] Michael michael
Truthfully, it wasn't the way he fell in. It was... how long it took him to get out. Jim jim
And we'd like to offer you 15% off your first purchase as our way of welcoming you to the area. Pam pam
Well that sounds like a really nice deal. Customer customer
Sha-bow. Andy andy
And I must say, that since we are a family business it is nice to see that you are, too. Customer customer
Oh, wow. You thought that- oh, my gosh. Oh. Definitely not. Andy andy
My mistake. Sorry. Customer customer
It's ok. Pam pam
Nuh. Actually, it's kinda not ok. Um, I date models. Face models. My girlfriend, on a scale of one to Giselle, uh... a nine. Andy andy
That- that's good for you. Customer customer
Anyway, we also have a special on envelopes. Pam pam
Pam's carrying our surrogate. Because my girlfriend needed to keep her figure for fashion week. So, we, uh, we put our baby in Pam. Doesn't matter what Pam looks like. Andy andy
Yeah. Pam pam
You were way meaner to me than I was to you. Pam pam
No I wasn't. Ok. The very idea of us together made you burst out laughing like you just bit into an Adam Sandler and jelly sandwich. Andy andy
You blew the sale, you idiot. Pam pam
Let me tell you something. I was never gonna make that sale. Andy andy
Erin, do we have any of those clips that hold paper together? Michael michael
Staples? [Kevin clears his throat] Uh, David Wallace called. Erin erin
Oh. He did? What did he say? Michael michael
He heard you made a big splash at the meeting. Oh, my God. That was so mean what I just said and I didn't mean it. It was Kevin and Meredith put me up to it. Erin erin
Ok. Michael michael
[whispers to Erin] I'm gonna kill you. Kevin kevin
Michael, don't listen to them. Stanley stanley
Thank you, Stanley. Michael michael
You just ignore their carp. Stanley stanley
Ok. Michael michael
Michael? Dwight dwight
Yes. Michael michael
A carp is both a fish and a term for complaing. They're mocking you with wordplay. Dwight dwight
Hey, boss, did you find Nemo? Creed creed
I can name Pixar movies, too. Toy Story. Michael michael
Don't you mean 'Koi Story'? Oscar oscar
And when you fell in, did you flounder? Phyllis phyllis
Michael, flounder is both a kind of fish and - Dwight dwight
I know what a flounder is. Michael michael
I'm not usually the butt of the joke. I'm usually the face of the joke. I wish Jim had fallen into that pond and he'd have to put on my suit and it'd be too short and he'd look... Damn it! He'd still look good. Michael michael
The most fundamental thing about sensitivity training is that you cannot make fun of a person for something or some action that they have done that they regret. Show of hands- who has been 'Koi-ponded'? Who here's been the butt of a joke that has gone too far? Phyllis? Michael michael
Michael, you make fun of us every day. Phyllis phyllis
Uh... Michael michael
Yeah. Every single day. Kevin kevin
You never said anything. Michael michael
Uh, we have. Countless times. Meredith meredith
Well, it is hard to tell the difference between you guys saying, 'Stop because I want you to stop' or STOP as in 'Stop. You're making me laugh so hard. What you're doing is so funny. You are on a roll. I am busting a gut. Stop!' Michael michael
That's never the case. Angela angela
We are going to make a 'Do Not Mock' list. Ok? Anything that we think might be out of bounds, we put on this list. Anything you put on this list you cannot be teased about. Got it? I'm gonna kick it off. Let's see what I have to put on the list, right? [writes 'Koi pond' on the list] Ok. I also have fallen into the fountain at the Steamtown Mall. Ok. Who else? Who else? Dwight, come on. Michael michael
I don't want people making fun of my nose. Dwight dwight
Your nose? Michael michael
It's too small. Dwight dwight
Alright. Michael michael
Oh my. That is small. Oscar oscar
Just, write it down, please. Dwight dwight
Can you breathe okay? Oscar oscar
What keeps your glasses on? Kelly kelly
Hey! It's on the list, everybody. Dwight dwight
No. I haven't finished writing. Did you sneeze it off? That's it. No more. Ok. Who else? Who else? Everybody's getting their chance. Michael michael
I don't want people making fun of my weight. Kevin kevin
Ok. That's to broad. It's gotta be something else. How 'bout your stomach? Yeah? [writes Huge Gut] Meredith? Michael michael
I don't want to say it out loud. Meredith meredith
Ok. Fine. Come on up here. Write it yourself. And don't sign your name to it. And nobody look. Everybody look away. Look away. Michael michael
I really didn't want to put it on the board but I thought maybe it was gonna come out somehow so... what are you gonna do? [she writes 'sex with a terrorist'] Meredith meredith
Ok. Michael michael
That is our sales pitch and we are stickin' to it. Andy andy
Well, you two are quite the salesmen and a very cute couple. Keena Gifford keena-gifford
Well- Andy andy
Oh- [both look at each other and together say] Thank you. Pam pam
Some couples don't seem like a good match. You two do. Keena Gifford keena-gifford
Well, you know. Pam pam
Yeah. You know. Two peas in a pod. We complete each other. What can I say? She loves to cook- Andy andy
He loves to eat. Pam pam
I love to dance- Andy andy
I love to watch him dance. Pam pam
Right. Sometimes I'll just dance for hours in the living room- Andy andy
And I'll just watch him. Pam pam
And a baby on the way? You must be so excited. Keena Gifford keena-gifford
Yes. Pam pam
Yeah. We are thrilled. Andy andy
Mmm-hmm. Pam pam
In fact, we spent the whole weekend researching various birthing coaches. Wasn't that fun, honey? Andy andy
It was, sweetie. Pam pam
Oh. I know the best teacher. Her name is Miss Janet. Keena Gifford keena-gifford
Yeah. On Clearview Avenue. Andy andy
Yeah! Keena Gifford keena-gifford
Yeah. Andy andy
This sounds ridiculous, I know, but some people say that I eat like a squirrel. Angela angela
So now you're comparing yourself to a cute, tiny animal? Phyllis phyllis
Um, Michael? The custodian called again. Apparently a Koi has died. [everyone shows remorse] Erin erin
It's a fish. Michael michael
They want you to pay for it. Erin erin
It could've died of natural causes. So... Michael michael
Well, they said you stepped on it's head. He did not suffer. Erin erin
When is the funeral? Oscar oscar
Do not mock, Oscar. Do not mock. How much do they want? Michael michael
$300. Erin erin
What? No. I could get a fish for a 5 cent worm. Michael michael
Oh, you're payin' way too much for your worms, man. Who's your worm guy? Creed creed
Ok. Great meeting, everybody. That's it. Jim jim
No, no. Michael michael
Thank you. [everyone begins to leave] Dwight dwight
No. We are not done here. This- Michael michael
One of the baby books suggets the best birthing posture is on all fours, like an animal. I just wish I had a special telephone so I could find out exactly wht the little soy bean wants. Right? Hey, little soy bean. What do you want? Right. How do- It- I felt it kick! Andy andy
That's great! Keena Gifford keena-gifford
Oh, my gosh. Like a little magical foot just high-fived me. Andy andy
Yeah, well, that'll happen. Pam pam
Oh, my gosh. It's like he's trying to say, 'I love you, too, Daddy'. I love you, too. [leans over and kisses Pam's belly] Andy andy
Sometimes we're so excited we forget where we are. Like at a business meeting. Pam pam
Message received, little soy bean. Andy andy
I think you just gotta ride this one out, man. Jim jim
No, Jim. You don't understand. Things like this don't just die. Kids in high school still call me 'Ponytail'. Michael michael
No, they don't. Jim jim
Yes, they do, Jim. Because of the time I got my ponytail stuck in the power trail. Michael michael
Maybe if you make fun of yourself it'll all go away. Jim jim
I want to make fun of you right now. Michael michael
Really? Do it. I am a big, stupid goofball. Jim jim
No. Don't do that. You're not. You're not stupid. Michael michael
See? Jim jim
Oh, my God. Michael michael
Hey. I- I just wanna say that I cannot believe that I walked into a Koi pond. I mean, seriously. Walk much? [everyone starts laughing] Oh. I should wear a snorkel to the next business meeting that I go to. Michael michael
Michael. You know, when you think about it, it's not all your fault. I mean, who puts a Koi pond in a lobby? Phyllis phyllis
Well, you know what? You're right, Phyllis, but I've been there before. I've seen that pond. This is the thing, I am a world class moron. That's the problem. Michael michael
Michael, please. Stop it now. You're embarrassing yourself. Dwight dwight
It's ok. We're having fun. It's not actually the first time I've been embarrassed by a pond. In high school, the girls volleyball team always used to hrow me into the frozen lake. Four years in a row. Oh... it was freezing. [Jim signals for making to stop] No. No. No. Oh, this is even worse. [Michael begins to lose his cool] Couple weeks ago I went to get a new cellphone and I wanted on of those packages where you have, you know, the friends- the five- the friends and family thing and the guys was like, 'Who are your 5 friends?' and I'm, like, 'Uh... ' I didn't even know I couldn't even think. [realizing he's going downhill] Oh, my God. It was so embarrassing. That was- oh. I don't even have Jan's cell phone number and I hate her! She won't give it to me. I was like, 'Oh, I guess I'm a loser. 'A luh-whooooo a za her'. Too far! God! Thanks a lot, man. Thanks for the advice. Michael michael
[watching Angela eat something] Enjoying your nut? Kevin kevin
Kevin. Oscar oscar
Why? Angela angela
I'm not mocking. I was just making an observation about a nut. Kevin kevin
I was. Angela angela
Hey. Who wants to watch Michael's pond dive? My roommate's friend is the night janitor over there. He swiped the security tape for me and he's bringing it over. Michael michael
Mm... I'm, know what? Maybe we should go easy on Michael, guys. You know, you watch that tape and you're gonna have to stay late for more sensitity training, so... Jim jim
We'll stay late. Kevin kevin
Well, that went pretty well. Andy andy
Yeah, I guess. Pam pam
We got a maybe. It was our first maybe. Going by the Nard Dog curve, I'd say we nailed it. Andy andy
If I'm being completely honest, I could've done without the belly kiss. Pam pam
You know what? I'm sorry. 'Cause in that moment I knew I was kissing your belly too much. Andy andy
Yeah. Way too much. Pam pam
Yeah. Andy andy
I mean, what the hell was that? Pam pam
What the heck was that? Andy andy
When you cried? Pam pam
Agh- try almost cried, ok? I just got caught up in the fantasy. Andy andy
You're fantsy involves comparison shopping birthing classes? Pam pam
No. I know I'm gonna go with Miss Janet. I just- I don't know. It was fun to role play, right? Andy andy
Hmm. Pam pam
I mean, it was fun for me. Having a wife and a little baby. Agh, I'm so sick of being single. Andy andy
Well, are you dating anyone? Pam pam
What do you think of Erin? I mean- she's- I- She's kinda cool. Andy andy
Ah. Pam pam
You think I can do better? Andy andy
Ah. Pam pam
Gotta get my goin' out on. Andy andy
Hey, let's watch this thing. Meredith meredith
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Ok. Yeah. We're not watchin' this. Jim jim
How can we not watch this? Oscar oscar
What happened to 'Do Not Mock'? Jim jim
We're not mocking, we're watching. Phyllis phyllis
That will inevitably lead to mocking. So... Jim jim
Well, we'll deal with it as it comes. Phyllis phyllis
Is this the tape of me falling? Michael michael
Yes. Put the DVD in. Phyllis phyllis
Open QuickTime. Kevin kevin
It starts on it's own. Let it - Oscar oscar
No! Use QuickTime. Trust me. I've done this. Kevin kevin
Guys. Michael can't handle this and as your boss I'm saying we're not watching it. Jim jim
No. It's ok. Watch it. He can't fire all of you. Michael michael
What are you doing? Jim jim
It's alright. I can handle it. Michael michael
No. Jim jim
I am a grown-up, Jim. Michael michael
Shh. It's on. Meredith meredith
Here they come. [everyone reacts to seeing Michael fall in] Boom! Kevin kevin
Oh. Did - did you see that? Oscar oscar
See what? Jim jim
Why'd you stop it? Angela angela
Oscar, yes. You're right to stop it. Thank you. Eject it. Jim jim
Jim, you let Michael fall in. Oscar oscar
Play it again. [everyone has the same reaction as before] He purposefully leaned away and let you fall in. Dwight dwight
Oh... man. I thinke when I started to see you go in I think I just froze. Jim jim
I don't think you froze. Michael michael
It's a killer new dance move. [re-enacts leaning back] Do you wanna talk in your office? Jim jim
No. Angela angela
I didn't ask you. [back to Michael] Would you like to talk? [walks away] Jim jim
Judas. Dwight dwight
Jim is my enemy. But it turns out that Jim is also his own worst enemy. And the enemy of my enemy is my friend. So, Jim is actually my friend. But... because he is his own worst enemy, the enemy of my friend is my enemy. So, actually Jim is my enemy. But- Dwight dwight
I should've grabbed you. I'm sorry. Look, I thought I could've done today's sales call alone. I mean, I may never be as good a salesman as you are, but I at least need the chance to do the job. Jim jim
Jim is jealous of me? Jim is jealous of me. Michael michael
[as Jim enters the kitchen] Hey, what's up lifeguard? Meredith meredith
Jim, I think I'm in your way. [leans back - they both exit] Oscar oscar
Oscar's a douche. Michael michael
[laughing] He's alright. Jim jim
No. He's a- yeah, he's alright. Ok. [holds door open as they exit] Michael michael
Thanks Michael. Jim jim
You're welcome. Whoa! [leans back] Almost fell. [they both laugh] Michael michael
Hey, Erin. Do you mind faxing this for me? Pam pam
Oh, sure. Oh, wait. Hand them to me upside down so I don't accidentally read them. Erin erin
Ok. Pam pam
Thanks. Erin erin
Mmm-hmm. Pam pam
How did today go, by the way? Did you make any sales? Erin erin
No. It was a total waste of time. Um... it was fun, though, because I got to spend the day with Andy Bernard. He's really cool. Pam pam
Yeah, he is! Erin erin
Yeah, he is. Pam pam
He's, like, the coolest person I've ever met. Erin erin
That's... right. He's like Marlon Brando. Pam pam
Oh. Do you mean Marlon Wayans? 'Cause he is. Erin erin
I actually do mean Marlon Wayan. Yeah. Pam pam
