[Flickering Lights] Hey everybody it's closing time. You don't got to go home but you can't stay here. [Plays radio and the song is Closing Time by Semisonic] Andy andy
[Laughs and shrieks] Erin erin
Closing time. Andy andy
Every office needs an end of the day tradition. Something to tell you the day is over. Otherwise, you go home and the night just feels like more day. It's weird. Andy andy
Closing time Andy andy
[On phone] ...W R K. Jim jim
One last call for alcohol so finish your whiskey and beer. Andy andy
Uh no it's W R K, as in kitten. Oh my boss is singing Closing Time, maybe that's what you are hearing. Jim jim
Come on pam! Andy andy
[Singing, Pam mumbling lyrics] Closing time, time for you to go home to the places you will be from. {Andy}/{Pam} andy pam
Let's see. Andy has been manager for a hundred and five days. Which means I've heard 'Closing Time' a hundred and five times. [nods and shakes head] Still don't know the words. Tah wa Ta way hm hm home and home and home. Pam pam
I know who I want to take me home. I know who I want to take me home. [Pulls towel through legs] I know who I want to take me home. [Spins Meredith in chair] Take me hooo...hooome! You know what fine! I try to start fun traditions for you guys, but if you don't want to sing... no traditions! Andy andy
[singing] Closing time every new beginning... Stanley stanley
I've never heard that song before. And once I heard it, I did not care for it, but that song means it's time to go home. Now...it's my favorite song. Stanley stanley
[singing] Every new beginning comes from some other beginnings end. {Andy}/{Stanley} andy stanley
Goodnight. Stanley stanley
Whose your favorite iron chef? Andy andy
[speaking at the same time as andy] This is atrocious. Robert robert
You go first. Andy andy
The ticketing software paints a picture of a sloppy, careless, error prone office. Robert robert
Well the monitoring software is a double edged sword. Sometimes... Andy andy
[runs in and interrupts] Sorry, go ahead. Dwight dwight
[to dwight] Did you need something from us? Robert robert
Wha...Yes. Your attention. Uh because... No that is all. [walks out] Dwight dwight
Last night I dreamed that the number two was the most valued number in the world. The vice president had all the power. Athletes fought for silver medals. Women were considered the best gender. And stadiums of fans shouted "We're number two!'. As with all my dreams, I'm guessing it was about my fear of immigrants. Dwight dwight
Last week an accounting mistake resulted in a client getting their order for free. Robert robert
Umpf...that's not good. Chalk that one up to Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb out there. Andy andy
Who are they? Robert robert
They're both Kevin. Oscar is the Sex and the City gang and Angela, if you can picture... Andy andy
Andrew sometimes I feel like you don't know me at all. Robert robert
I would agree with that. Andy andy
Simply...end the mistakes Robert robert
End the mistakes, easy- Andy andy
When I come back next week and this report shows me no mistakes, we can talk about names, all day. Our favorite names, silly made up names, normal names said in a silly voice. Wouldn't that be nice? Robert robert
I would like that. Andy andy
End the mistakes. That is all I ask. [gets up from chair] And you can't have a favorite Iron Chef. It depends entirely on the secret ingredient. Sometimes I feel you don't know food at all. Robert robert
I'm just saying with the NBA lockout I think roller derby's in a really good place now. So...my pitch is...me, Pam, you and, someone else maybe Justine. Jim jim
Nahh! [shakes head] No. Not Justine. Never Justine. Darryl darryl
Is that off again? Jim jim
Oh yeah. Darryl darryl
Ok. Jim jim
Hey, mandatory warehouse safety meeting. Today. Val val
Ahh...We don't really do those. We just sign the thing. Darryl darryl
Are you really this lazy? Val val
I'll be there. Darryl darryl
Hey. Gabe gabe
Hey. Val val
Monday's suck. Gabe gabe
Yeaha...yup. [awkward silence then points to door] Just trying to get in. Val val
I may have a little solution to our mistakes problem. This is a project I've been working on for quite some time and today, might be the day to use it. Dwight dwight
What do you got? Andy andy
[opens folder] Allow me. You're going to love this. [struggles opening folder] Ugh...should've used a shorter string. Never mind, I know it by heart. It is a system that holds people accountable for everyone else's work. Dwight dwight
Sounds controversial. Andy andy
Have I not been worthy of your trust? Have I not been a reliable number two? Dwight dwight
Do not go there! You're the deuce I never want to drop. Andy andy
Well, I can make this work. I'll set it up right now. Just need your go ahead. Dwight dwight
Go do the voodoo that you do so well. Andy andy
I will do my voodoo. Dwight dwight
Mmhmmm. Andy andy
Hey. I need you to get the paperwork rolling on a new workplace relationship. Gabe gabe
For you? Toby toby
Yes. For Gabe. Gabe gabe
Who are you seeing? That's gr... Toby toby
Whom I'm seeing is Val from down in the warehouse. Gabe gabe
Oh. Toby toby
I'm not technically seeing her, but uh I've seen her, with the eyes and uh there was attraction. In at least one direction. So..[holds up fist] Gabe gabe
You know I don't have to do the paperwork unless you're actually dating. Toby toby
Ok, but once this starts, it's going to be moving fast. It's going to be hot and heavy and I don't want a bunch of bureaucratic red tape wrapped around my jock. You know? Gabe gabe
But I mean...uh have you talked to her? Is sh... Toby toby
Yeah we had a whole conversation about Mondays... Gabe gabe
Do you know her last name, yet? Toby toby
Toby I'm going to tell you her last name tomorrow because she's going to be screaming it tonight. Gabe gabe
She's going to be screaming her own last name? Toby toby
Hey! Watch it. Gabe gabe
Good luck Gabe. Toby toby
Hi guys. I just wanted to say that, you all have been doing amazing work., really. Andy andy
Thank you. Kevin kevin
And I'd like to add that your work has been a little sloppy. So, Dwight and I have implemented a new program that we like to call...Dwight... Andy andy
The accountability booster. It registers every time a mistake has been made in the office. From a late delivery to an accounting error. Five strikes in a day equals a home run. One home run and you're out. Dwight dwight
If we as a group make five mistakes in a day, something bad happens like we block Minesweeper. Andy andy
Or in this case an email gets sent to Robert California containing the consultants report from last year. Remember the one that recommended the branch be shutdown? And as a fail-safe also every negative email you've ever written about him to the group will also be forwarded to him. Dwight dwight
What emails are you talking about? Kelly kelly
Robert's favorite songs: Creep by TLC, Creep by Radio Head. You remember that one Jim? There is no way he hasn't strangled at least one stripper. Oscar. He eats his yogurt like he is punishing it for disappointing him. Kelly. Dwight dwight
That's not that bad actually. Kelly kelly
P.S. We should should kill him. Dwight dwight
Wait, so you installed a doomsday device? Jim jim
No, it's an accountability booster. Dwight dwight
Which when it goes off it destroys everything. Very similar to a doomsday device. Jim jim
Jim, you're trying to make me sound like some kind of evil maniac. Now the point is that we are now working in an environment where we have accountability to each other. I am confident that you guys are equal to the task. Dwight dwight
Um, no we're not and you are a psycho who is ruining our lives. Kelly kelly
We can't do this Dwight. Ryan ryan
[Everyone angrily disagreeing]Smile...nod. Smile and nod. Dwight dwight
They are making me out to be a Bond villian. I like to think of myself as a brilliant scientist who will stop at nothing to remake the world. Like...not Doctor Moreau someone good. Doctor Frankenstein, Doctor Jekyll, not them. Doctor... Dwight dwight
Are you sure this is a good idea? I mean the thing about this office is, we make a lot of mistakes. Andy andy
But the device will change that. Without a safety net, people will improve. Dwight dwight
Alright everybody, looks like we need to be getting to work. Be extra careful. Double check everything or the accountability booster will getcha. Andy andy
This doomsdays device sounds like a scare tactic to me. Stanley stanley
There's an easy way to tell if this device is a sham. We just make a mistake. I'll send an order down to shipping before we've received payment. Oscar oscar
[alert goes off] Oh, there's one mistake. Dwight dwight
Now we only have four strikes left until a home run. Erin erin
Dwight's our co-worker and he worked really hard on this doomsday device so I... Andy andy
It's not a doomsday device, gosh. [Erin makes red strike on desk] We can do this you guys. Dwight dwight
First. Second. Warehouse Crew warehouse-crew
It's not a race. Darryl darryl
Thirrrr....third. Warehouse Crew warehouse-crew
Who knows what the belt is for? Darryl darryl
It's for protecting my ass. When you suckers lift more than you can handle. Sup, I'm Gabe. Corporate. Continue. Don't be nervous. Gabe gabe
Apparently we have a visitor. Gabe, everyone. Darryl darryl
Hi, gabe. Warehouse Crew warehouse-crew
All right so the support belt. Now this one is mine. Doesn't get much use nowadays. Darryl darryl
Look at this, this is enormous. Gabe gabe
I get the sense that Val enjoys a good putdown. Considering that's the only thing I know about her. I will be milking that hard. [Gestures milking a cow] Gabe gabe
It's like a hula hoop. Right. Mele Kalikimaka is the wise way. Gabe gabe
You done? Darryl darryl
The Michelin man called, he wants his cummerbund back. Gabe gabe
Remember we have to give Rigo Escrow their refund by five. Phyllis phyllis
I'm on it. Kevin kevin
Kevin, maybe I should handle that. We really need you to focus on your project. Angela angela
Good thinking. Kevin kevin
Apparently a big client for this company, needs to know the story of how paper gets made. Kevin kevin
Oscar, use a calculator. [Oscar shakes head] Angela angela
When the stakes are this high, there is only one computer that I trust. And it's powered by thai food and spanish reds. [points to his head] Oscar oscar
Alright everybody, you are doing great! Andy andy
Well, I wouldn't say that. Three mistakes already is pretty terrible, but I do see improvement. Meredith kept someone on hold for thirty minutes and now look she's hard at work. [Meredith gives dwight the finger] Dwight dwight
Dwight, question. Jim jim
No questions. Dwight dwight
If this doomsday device goes off... Jim jim
Accountability booster. Dwight dwight
If this bad idea goes off and we all lose our jobs. Are you going to feel good about that? Jim jim
I haven't even considered it. That's how sure I am that this accountability booster is going to work. Dwight dwight
Try mose1234. Stanley stanley
Dwight would never be that obvious. Try something like...z64$8. [incorrect password] Not that exactly Jim, something like that. Ryan ryan
Ok. Jim jim
How about Scrantonstrangler666. Dwight dwight
Nope. Jim jim
No. Oh shoot. Ha ha ha...You guys are never gonna shut down the machine, ok? But I appreciate your energy and your team work. If you applied this to your regular work, You won't even notice that the device is there, watching you ready to strike. Dwight dwight
Wha...what's Dwight's mothers name. Kelly kelly
Hmm...Heda. [alert] No. Jim jim
Once you read the packet, sign the back. Darryl darryl
Hey Darryl, I was thinking, uh, maybe while we read through this, uh, you could grab us all some coffee. My treat. It's a hundred dollar bill. Should cover it I think. Don't bring me any of that caramel soy latte crap, ok? I want a decaf frappuccino. Val... Gabe gabe
Actually, Val, why don't you come with? I'll need the extra hands to carry them back. Darryl darryl
Yeah, sure. Val val
Uh. Gabe gabe
Mmhmm. [points at gabe] Caramel soy latte. Darryl darryl
Decaf frap- Gabe gabe
Got it. Darryl darryl
You sent the late notice to Ryan Heart & Wolf. Right? Angela angela
Mhm. Six-forty, six-twenty. Oscar oscar
Six-seventy, six-twenty. Angela angela
Nuh uh. Oscar oscar
yes! Angela angela
Five eighty-eight plus fifteen percent- Oh no. Oscar oscar
What does this mean? What does it mean! Kevin kevin
Andy. [alert sounds] Oscar oscar
Ohhhh! Angela angela
Gahhh. That's five strikes. Andy andy
[pulls out Brandy bottle] Well...I was saving this for my retirement, which I guess is today. Stanley stanley
Dwight we got five strikes. Andy andy
Really? Dwight dwight
Did the email go out or... Andy andy
It goes out automatically at five P.M. Dwight dwight
Well, th- There's gotta be a way to stop it. Andy andy
Well, I would have to enter my password in order to cancel it. Dwight dwight
Ok! Dwight you may now enter your password. Andy andy
No. Dwight dwight
What?! Andy andy
You don't deserve to have this branch. Five mistakes in less than a day. Dwight dwight
We did our best. Phyllis phyllis
No you didn't, Phyllis. You complained the whole time. You yelled at me. You tried to break into the machine. [everyone interjects] What?! Dwight dwight
You're a real crumb bum, you know that? Erin erin
Hey, you can't just change the rules because you don't like the outcome. What about you, Kevin? What about you and your fake task? Can you tell me now where paper comes from? Dwight dwight
Uh, the man tree puts its penis- Kevin kevin
Ha. Ok, alright. Andy back me up here, please. Dwight dwight
Nn no. Andy andy
What? Dwight dwight
No! Andy andy
Dwight be human for once. Shut down the machine. Oscar oscar
Shut it down! Shut it down! Shut down the machine!!! [erin joins in yelling] Shut it down! Shut it down! Kelly kelly
Good luck finding a new job idiots. I'll make sure to write you a glowing reference. Glowingly negative. Dwight dwight
Dwight's car is gone. Erin erin
I bet he went home. Pam pam
Some of us should go there and talk some sense into him. Get him to stop that email. Andy andy
Pam, you should come with me. Dwight really likes you and your breasts are enormous that could help us. Andy andy
Yeah. Kevin kevin
Kevin has that lovability. Andy andy
Guys come on. I'm right here. Kevin kevin
Jim, I want you to go find Robert just be where he is in case that email goes out at five. You can try to delete it or something. Andy andy
Ok, where is he? Jim jim
Uh, he's at some club where you either eat squash or play squash. Erin erin
I'll try both. Jim jim
[digging] Oh. Come to reason with me? Dwight dwight
Gotcha something. [gives Dwight cap, Dwight throws it aside] And, uh, I just really want to talk to you- Andy andy
Get lost. Dwight dwight
Well now hold on it, it- Andy andy
What are you doing? Pam pam
What does it look like I'm doing? Digging a grave for a horse. Dwight dwight
Uhm. Pam pam
Do you need a hand? Erin erin
Yeah, do you need a hand? [everyone joins in] Pam pam
If you hit another horse, you've dug to far. Dwight dwight
I'll see you next week Will. [at the club, playing squash] Robert robert
Robert. Jim jim
Jim what are you...What a surprise. Robert robert
Yeah, well, you know just had a meeting. Squash meeting. Jim jim
Yeah. Robert robert

A game or a match? Robert robert
Exactly. Here we go. Let's do it. Jim jim
Are you okay, Kevin? [Kevin gives thumbs down] Pam pam
[to Dwight] Where you going? Andy andy
In. I'm hungry. Dwight dwight
Uh, could we come in too? Just for some water. Pam pam
Okay. Take off your shoes. Except you Kevin, they stay on. Dwight dwight
Oh, wow. I forgot how pretty your house is. Pam pam
This is the new addition, built my Erasmus Schrute in 1808. It doubled as a tuberculosis recovery room until 2009. Dwight dwight
That's too much Doodle and not enough Lab. Val val
Yeah, when are they gonna do a Labradoodle that's just Lab? Darryl darryl
That's what I'm sayin'. Val val
[to Val] Hey. You're welcome. Gabe gabe
Thanks for the coffee. Val val
So, tonight I was thinking, I'm gonna go to the cemetery. I'm gonna drink a little wine and I thought maybe you'd like to come with me. Gabe gabe
Are you asking me on a date? Val val
Yes, I am. Gabe gabe
Because I don't date coworkers. It's not personal, it's a matter of policy. Val val
I could quit. Problem solved. Gabe gabe
Don't quit. [Darryl eavesdropping, nods] Val val
Good policy. Sensible. Smart. Darryl darryl
Alright. Serving. Serving. Serving. Serving. Jim jim
In the box. Robert robert
In the box. [hits it straight into the floor] Jim jim
Why haven't we heard anything? It's 4:45. There's only 15 minutes left. Oscar oscar
Oh, now you can do math? Where were you 2 hours ago 'A Beautiful Mind'- Angela angela
I made a mistake. I'm sorry. Oscar oscar
I know how to save the company, everyone. Just write a petition, get everyones' signature, including our clients, march down to Florida, and shove it up your butt! Ha! [laughing and drinking Brandy] Stanley stanley
It's not that funny. Oscar oscar
[Kevin comes around corner with a pan, ready to strike Dwight, Pam shakes her head] Oh, Pam. You got something on your shirt. Erin erin
Oh, haha. Oh well. Pobody's nerfect, right? Pam pam
Did you just have a stroke, Pam? It's "Nobody's perfect." Nice stroke, Pam. Dwight dwight
No. It's a jokey saying. Pobody's nerfect, like I can't even say those words right. Ha. Pam pam
I hadn't heard that before, that's, that's funny. Dwight dwight
Dwight, there's just a small matter of a- Andy andy
You know what would go so great with this cabbage pie? Milk. Pam pam
Any specific animal? Dwight dwight
I'm thinking cow- Pam pam
Don't say cow- Ugh. Dwight dwight

That's insane! Andy andy
Just trust me. Pam pam
Trust you, like I trusted Dwight this morning. Andy andy
I got this. Pam pam
Enngh- Andy andy
Hahhh, thanks for everything. Pam pam
Sive drafely. [Pam points back at him, smiling] Dwight dwight
Isn't it supposed to be, "Drive safely"? Kevin kevin
[a text tone goes off] Is that my phone? Jim jim
Sounded like mine. Robert robert
Nah, I think it's mine. Lemme just check real quick, here. Alright. Jim jim
Well, it's mine. You took it out of my bag. Robert robert
Oh, oh yeah. Jim jim
Can I have it? Robert robert
Yes. Right now? Yes. Jim jim
Yep. Robert robert
Here you go. [throws it over glass] Jim jim
Whoa, no, wait, wait, wait, whoa. [tries to catch it with racket, misses, lands on floor] Robert robert
[censored beep] ha, Jesus. Robert robert
Awww, sorry. Did it break? Jim jim
Nah, it's good. Robert robert
You sure? Jim jim
Yeah. Robert robert
What kinda iPhone is that? Jim jim
It's the standard one. The one everyone has. Robert robert
Oh yeah. I have the one that nobody has. Is there anything interesting? Jim jim
It depends Jim. Do you find one-day only Jet Blue sales to Buffalo interesting? Robert robert
Ha ha. No, I don't. No, I don't. Alright, well, I am sore and obviously horrible at this, so- [texting on his phone] Jim jim
My serve! Robert robert
[her text tones rings] Dwight stopped the device! Pam pam
Oh! Andy andy
Yes! Kevin kevin
Haho! Erin erin
[his phone vibrates] He stopped it! Oscar oscar
Oh! [everyone yelling out, celebrating] We still have our jobs. Ryan ryan
They're not my favorite people in the world. I wouldn't even call them friends. They come over here, eat my pie, dig the crappiest horse grave you've ever seen. [pulls cap he previously discarded, out of the dirt] God, I'm gonna have to work with them forever, aren't I? Dwight dwight
Take it easy. Nice and easy. Robert robert
[hits ball, ricochets to groin] Ah! Classic, right? [Jim continues to rally poorly and falls down] Jim jim
Oo! Robert robert
I'm alright. Jim jim
You alright? Robert robert
Yep. Jim jim
Skinned knee. Robert robert
Yep. Ah. Oh. [and skinned elbow] Jim jim
Oo, a little ice on that maybe. Robert robert
Yeah. That does not feel good. Jim jim
Okay. My serve. Robert robert
Let's not make any mistakes today. Or at least no more than four. Andy andy
This doomsday device sounds like a scare tactic to me. Y2K all over again. Stanley stanley
Oh, I was all about the Y2K bug. Paid some guy to update my PC, threw out my microwave, canceled my plane ticket, sold all my stocks, spent New Year's Eve with a gas mask on my face. I was even wearing a diaper! Someone said Y2K would get the toilets. Stanley stanley
This could be real. Dwight's pretty handy with computers. He fixed my laptop once. Pam pam
Ok, he didn't fix it. The brightness level was all the way down. Jim jim
You couldn't fix it. Pam pam
I wasn't here that day. Jim jim
Yes you were. Pam pam
No- Ok. Well, we'll talk about it later. Straussburg! I had a meeting in Straussburg and I dropped you off beforehand. I was wearing a tan shirt with stripes? Jim jim
I don't think so, babe. Pam pam
Ok, this is crazy. Jim jim
I have never played squash. But I have seen it in countless 80's movies and it seems like the most common mistake is that you serve too hard and hit yourself right in the squash balls. So, as long as I don't do that, I think I'll be alright. Jim jim
Eleven love. I win again. Robert robert
[grunts] Good game. You are a worthy opponent. You wanna play one more? Jim jim
I don't think so. Robert robert
No? Come on. Jim jim
Why? Not only are you terrible at squash, but you don't even seem to enjoy it. Jim, this is not enough of a challenge for me. Robert robert
Well, that is... because you didn't realize that... I was left-handed. Jim jim
What are you doing here, Gabe? Darryl darryl
Well Darryl, considering that I basically own the place, I'm just chillin' at mi casa. This is me, in repose..I suppose. Gabe gabe
You know, there's this expression: Bro's before Ho's. And what that's short for is brothers before whores. Uh, I don't buy that. I would throw any brother under the bus for any whore. Woman. Gabe gabe
Robert, do you wanna smoke pipes during our meeting? Andy andy
Let's wait, until we have something to smoke about. Robert robert
Yes. Of course. [whispers] Erin..[throws pipes at Erin] Andy andy
Hey, Andy. Dwight dwight
Yeah? Andy andy
Maybe I could sit in on this one with you? You know, that way I can cover you in case you need to urinate or you just want another opinion, or defecate... Dwight dwight
I don't think so. Andy andy
Well I just thought with my new increased responsibilities and all... Dwight dwight
Yeah. I'm still figuring out the two man bobsled here, so let's hold off on the D-man for now. Andy andy
