Michael: Tonight the Scranton Business Park is having Casino Night and we are converting our warehouse into a full-blown gambling hall. And I know it’s illegal in Pennsylvania, but it’s for charity. And I consider myself a great philanderer. It’s just… It’s nice to know at the end of the day, I can look in the mirror and say, “Michael, because of you, some little kid in the Congo has a belly full of rice this evening.” Makes you feel good.
Jim: Excuse me. How long is the wait for a table for two?
Dwight: I would never, ever serve you. Not in a million, billion years.
Pam: It’s a nice tux.
Dwight: I know. It belonged to my grandfather. He was buried in it, so family heirloom.
Dwight: I would never, ever serve you. Not in a million, billion years.
Pam: It’s a nice tux.
Dwight: I know. It belonged to my grandfather. He was buried in it, so family heirloom.
Roy: So, what’s the deal? We gotta pay for our own drinks? That’s lame.
Pam: Come on, it’ll be fun, and besides, I’m a roulette expert.
Dwight: Impossible. Roulette is not a game of skill, it is a game of chance.
Jim: I can always kind of win at roulette.
Dwight: Oh, really? Mmm-hmm.
Jim: Yeah.
Dwight: How would you do that?
Jim: Mind control.
Dwight: [laughs] You can’t be serious. Are you serious?
Jim: Ever since I was a little kid, like, eight or nine, I could sort of control things with my mind.
Dwight: I don’t believe you. Continue.
Jim: It was just little thing, you know, like I could make something shake or I could make a marble fall off the counter. You know, just little things.
Dwight: [scoffs] That’s ridiculous. You know what? Uh… Why don’t you move that coat rack? Excuse me, everyone! Attention in the office, please. Jim is about to prove his telekinetic powers and he needs absolute silence. Go ahead.
Jim: Okay, I’ll try. [The coat rack wobbles] [Pam holds up an umbrella handle to the camera in another scene]
Dwight: Oh, my God.
Pam: Come on, it’ll be fun, and besides, I’m a roulette expert.
Dwight: Impossible. Roulette is not a game of skill, it is a game of chance.
Jim: I can always kind of win at roulette.
Dwight: Oh, really? Mmm-hmm.

Jim: Okay, I’ll try. [The coat rack wobbles] [Pam holds up an umbrella handle to the camera in another scene]
Dwight: Oh, my God.
Michael: I try not to think of it as lagging behind. It’s more of a David-and-Goliath thing.
Jan: [on phone] Yeah, but… Well, the fact of the matter is that your branch is currently number four of the five branches that I oversee.
Michael: Top 80 percent!
Jan: Michael?
Michael: Yeah?
Jan: You know that I’m very serious here.
Michael: Jan, listen, I promise that I will kick it up a notch. Bam!
Jan: What?
Michael: Emeril. Oh, actually, while I have you, not that I have you or have ever had you, but we’re having our Casino Night tonight and I think everyone would love to see their fearless leader here.
Jan: I thought that you were their fearless leader.
Michael: I am, but you are the Eva Peron to my Cesar Chavez.
Jan: [laughs] I think you can handle it.
Michael: Oh, come on. Come on.
Jan: I think so, Michael…
Michael: You know, it’d be fun. I can hear it in your voice. You need a break.
Jan: Goodbye, Michael.
Jan: [on phone] Yeah, but… Well, the fact of the matter is that your branch is currently number four of the five branches that I oversee.
Michael: Top 80 percent!
Jan: Michael?
Michael: Yeah?
Jan: You know that I’m very serious here.
Michael: Jan, listen, I promise that I will kick it up a notch. Bam!
Jan: What?
Michael: Emeril. Oh, actually, while I have you, not that I have you or have ever had you, but we’re having our Casino Night tonight and I think everyone would love to see their fearless leader here.

Michael: Oh, come on. Come on.
Jan: I think so, Michael…
Michael: You know, it’d be fun. I can hear it in your voice. You need a break.
Jan: Goodbye, Michael.
Michael: Jan and I understand each other. The romance thing is sort of on hold for the time being, but we’ve remained good friends. Good friends with privileges. Not now, some day.
Michael: Okay, everybody. Tonight’s event is to benefit the Boy Scouts of America.
Oscar: Again? We do that every year.
Michael: Well, they need our money. They don’t have cookies like the Girl Scouts.
Oscar: It’d be nice to do something for people who are actually suffering.
Michael: Well, Oscar, if you don’t like it, then you should concentrate on winning. Because the person at the end of the evening with the highest chip count will receive $500 to donate to the charity of their choice. And they will get a mini-fridge compliments of Vance Refrigeration.
Dwight: Yes!
Michael: So get your charities in to Pam. I, for example, am playing for Comic Relief.
Jim: That doesn’t exist anymore.
Michael: Comedy is very much alive, as are homeless people.
Pam: No, they stopped making that show.
Michael: Well, then, they need our money more than ever.
Angela: You have to pick an approved, non-profit organization.
Oscar: Again? We do that every year.
Michael: Well, they need our money. They don’t have cookies like the Girl Scouts.
Oscar: It’d be nice to do something for people who are actually suffering.
Michael: Well, Oscar, if you don’t like it, then you should concentrate on winning. Because the person at the end of the evening with the highest chip count will receive $500 to donate to the charity of their choice. And they will get a mini-fridge compliments of Vance Refrigeration.

Michael: Comedy is very much alive, as are homeless people.
Pam: No, they stopped making that show.
Michael: Well, then, they need our money more than ever.
Angela: You have to pick an approved, non-profit organization.
Creed: There’s a great soup kitchen in downtown Scranton. Delicious pea soup on Thursdays. I’ll probably give the money to them.
Kevin: Something with animals. Or people.
Kelly: Kobe Bryant has a foundation, and he is so hot. And he gave his wife the biggest diamond ring. I know he didn’t do it. …Maybe he did it.
Angela: We are giving money that has been gambled. Why don’t we just deal drugs or prostitute ourselves, and donate that money to charity?
Michael: Oh, and another fun thing. We, at the end of the night, are going to give the check to an actual group of Boy Scouts. Right, Toby? We’re gonna…
Toby: Actually, I didn’t think it was appropriate to invite children since it’s… You know, there’s gambling and alcohol, and it’s in our dangerous warehouse and it’s a school night… And, you know, Hooters is catering. You know, is that enough? Should I keep going?
Michael: Why are you the way that you are? Honestly, every time I try to do something fun or exciting, you make it not… that way. I hate so much about the things that you choose to be. Okay, you know what? I will not donate my winnings to Comic Relief, since apparently it doesn’t exist. I am going to donate to Afghanistanis with AIDS.
Jim: I think you mean the aid to Afghanistan.
Michael: No, I mean Afghanistanis with AIDS.
Phyllis: Afghani.
Michael: What?
Phyllis: Afghani.
Michael: That’s a dog.
Pam: No, that’s Afghan.
Michael: That’s a shawl.
Dwight: Wait, canine AIDS?
Michael: No. Humans with AIDS.
Creed: Who has AIDS?
Jim: Guys, the Afghanistananies.
Michael: Okay, you know what? No. No. AIDS is not funny. Believe me, I have tried.
Toby: Actually, I didn’t think it was appropriate to invite children since it’s… You know, there’s gambling and alcohol, and it’s in our dangerous warehouse and it’s a school night… And, you know, Hooters is catering. You know, is that enough? Should I keep going?

Dwight: Wait, canine AIDS?
Michael: No. Humans with AIDS.
Creed: Who has AIDS?
Jim: Guys, the Afghanistananies.
Michael: Okay, you know what? No. No. AIDS is not funny. Believe me, I have tried.
Michael: There are certain topics that are off-limits to comedians, JFK, AIDS, the Holocaust. The Lincoln Assassination just recently became funny. “I need to see this play like I need a hole in the head.” [laughs] And I hope to someday live in a world where a person could tell a hilarious AIDS joke. It’s one of my dreams.
Jim: What are you doing?
Pam: Oh, nothing.
Jim: “Till Death Do Us Rock.”
Pam: They’re wedding bands.
Jim: Oh.
Pam: Roy was supposed to pick the band, but he’s concentrating more on the bachelor party now.
Jim: Wait, wait, where you going? I mean, even if you don’t hire a band, you still have to watch the bands. Pam, these are people who have never given up on their dreams. I have great respect for that. And, yes, they’re all probably very bad and that will make me feel better about not having dreams.
Pam: There’s a KISS cover band in here.
Jim: Let’s do it.
Pam: Oh, nothing.
Jim: “Till Death Do Us Rock.”
Pam: They’re wedding bands.
Jim: Oh.
Pam: Roy was supposed to pick the band, but he’s concentrating more on the bachelor party now.
Jim: Wait, wait, where you going? I mean, even if you don’t hire a band, you still have to watch the bands. Pam, these are people who have never given up on their dreams. I have great respect for that. And, yes, they’re all probably very bad and that will make me feel better about not having dreams.
Pam: There’s a KISS cover band in here.
Jim: Let’s do it.
Pam: I’m pretty happy these days. I’m getting married soon and I’m getting along with everybody at work.
Jim: Why did I talk to Jan about transferring? Well, you know… I have no future here.
Michael: I have already put down the deposit. Do you understand how a deposit works?
Darryl: Mike, I am not having fire-eaters in a paper warehouse.
Michael: It’s Casino Night like Las Vegas. There are fire-eaters all over the place.
Darryl: Except my warehouse.
Michael: Well, actually, it’s my warehouse.
Dwight: Actually, it’s owned by Beakman Properties, and Dunder Mifflin is four years into a seven-year lease.
Michael: Why are you here?
Dwight: When Darryl was coming, you said you wanted me here for protection.
Michael: Not. I said, not that.
Darryl: We just have a lot of stuff down there that could be stolen.
Michael: That’s ironic.
Darryl: What?
Michael: That you are afraid.
Darryl: Why? ‘Cause I’m from the hood?
Michael: Dinkin’ flicka.
Darryl: [sighs] Dinkin’ flicka.
Darryl: Mike, I am not having fire-eaters in a paper warehouse.
Michael: It’s Casino Night like Las Vegas. There are fire-eaters all over the place.
Darryl: Except my warehouse.
Michael: Well, actually, it’s my warehouse.

Darryl: What?
Michael: That you are afraid.
Darryl: Why? ‘Cause I’m from the hood?
Michael: Dinkin’ flicka.
Darryl: [sighs] Dinkin’ flicka.
Darryl: I taught Mike some, uh, phrases to help with his interracial conversations. You know, stuff like, “Fleece it out.” “Going mach five.” “Dinkin’ flicka.” You know, things us Negroes say.
Michael: Give me some. [Michael and Darryl perform simultaneous hand gesture]
Darryl: Oh, yeah, I taught him a handshake, too.
Jim: [Jim ejects a videotape from the VCR and puts in a new one] Wow. I don’t know how you’re gonna decide. They are all extremely good.
Pam: I think I should hire them all. Do like Lollapalooza.
Jim: Yes.
Pam: Have three stages, yeah.
Jim: Your mom would love that. She would. Oh, this band is called Scrantonicity.
Pam: Oh.
Jim: Let’s take a look. Nice.
Pam: Oh, wait. That’s Kevin. On the drums.
Jim: What?
Pam: On the drums! On the drums!
Jim: Oh, my God, that’s Kevin! Great song, Kev. Oh, my God, he’s the drummer and the singer.
Pam: I think I should hire them all. Do like Lollapalooza.
Jim: Yes.
Pam: Have three stages, yeah.
Jim: Your mom would love that. She would. Oh, this band is called Scrantonicity.
Pam: Oh.
Jim: Let’s take a look. Nice.
Pam: Oh, wait. That’s Kevin. On the drums.
Jim: What?
Pam: On the drums! On the drums!
Jim: Oh, my God, that’s Kevin! Great song, Kev. Oh, my God, he’s the drummer and the singer.
Kevin: We really don’t do a lot of weddings. We actually don’t play in public very often. We are all really hoping that Pam’s wedding works out. This could be a turning point for the band.
Jim: Wow. Oh!
Pam: Oh, my…
Jim: Yeah, you haven’t seen that since 1983. That is amazing. Okay, we have to sign him. I’m gonna call the label, we’re gonna…
Pam: No! No!
Jim: No, Pam, you’re gonna lose him to another wedding.
Pam: No, come back! No, no, no!
Jim: Kev!
Pam: Oh, my…
Jim: Yeah, you haven’t seen that since 1983. That is amazing. Okay, we have to sign him. I’m gonna call the label, we’re gonna…
Pam: No! No!
Jim: No, Pam, you’re gonna lose him to another wedding.
Pam: No, come back! No, no, no!
Jim: Kev!
Pam: Jim is great. Being with him just takes away all the stress of planning my wedding.
Michael: [phone rings] Yes
Pam: [phone rings] Michael, Carol Stills for you.
Michael: Who?
Pam: Carol Stills.
Michael: Do I know a Carol Stills?
Pam: Your realtor.
Michael: Oh, yeah, put her through. Hey Carol, how goes the real estate biz? Is it real good?
Pam: It’s still me.

Michael: Do I know a Carol Stills?
Pam: Your realtor.
Michael: Oh, yeah, put her through. Hey Carol, how goes the real estate biz? Is it real good?
Pam: It’s still me.
Pam: Sometimes I don’t put Michael through until he’s already said something. I look at it as a practice run for him. He usually does better on the second attempt.
Pam: Carol, you’re on with Michael.
Carol: [on phone] Hello, Michael?
Michael: Hi, Carol. How you doing?
Carol: I’m great. I just needed one last signature for your mortgage insurance.
Michael: Oh, hey, no problemo. Incidentally, I love the place.
Carol: Oh, great.
Michael: Great. It has a little bit of a weird smell. It’s okay. At Christmas, the tree helped.
Carol: Oh, good, I’m glad. Can I drop it over later?
Michael: Actually, I’m sort of hosting this charity thing in our warehouse, Casino Night.
Carol: Oh, great.
Michael: Yeah, it’ll be good. You know what? Why don’t you come by? Bring the papers, I’ll sign them and then you can stay and have a drink.
Carol: To the casino thing?
Michael: Yeah. It’ll be fun. What do you…[phone rings] What do you…
Carol: What?
Michael: Oh, I’m sorry. Could you hold on? Yes?

Pam: It’s still me. Uh, Jan, here’s Michael.
Jan: Michael?
Michael: Hey, Jan. How you doing?
Jan: You know, I… I thought about it and you are right.
Michael: I am?
Jan: I could use a little fun. So, I am going to drive up for your Casino Night.

Michael: Hey, hey.
Carol: Hi.
Michael: Hey, Carol.
Carol: Hi.
Michael: You look great.
Carol: Thanks. Thank you for inviting me. It looks so great in here.
Michael: Oh, well… Kiss. [Michael kisses her on the cheek, pauses and then kisses her on the other cheek] That’s how we do it in the paper biz. It’s European and… Yes? Ah, Dwight [Kisses cheeks]
Dwight: Code name Re/Max is here. No sign of Lan Jevinson.
Roy: Yeah! That’s great.
Michael: Hey, hey.

Dwight: Code name Re/Max is here. No sign of Lan Jevinson.
Dwight: I’m Michael’s wingman. I’ve got his back. Two dates. He’s got two dates tonight. My job is to keep Jan away from Carol and vice versa. Michael said, “We must deceive them, so as not to hurt them, and in that way, we honor them.”
Michael: Can I get you a drink? The food is from Hooters.
Carol: Drink would be good.
Michael: Okay.
Carol: Drink would be good.
Michael: Okay.
Creed: Oh, I steal things all the time. It’s just something I do. I stopped caring a long time ago. You should see how many supplies I’ve taken from this place. Honestly, I love stealing things.
Billy’s Girlfriend: I’m gonna get a drink. Do you need anything?
Billy: No, I’m fine. Thank’s sweetheart.
Billy’s Girlfriend: Okay.
Michael: Billy, your nurse is hot.
Billy: That’s my girlfriend.
Michael: Your nurse became your girlfriend? Sweet.
Billy: She was never my nurse. I met her at Chili’s. She was my waitress.
Michael: Chili’s is great.
Billy: No, I’m fine. Thank’s sweetheart.
Billy’s Girlfriend: Okay.
Michael: Billy, your nurse is hot.
Billy: That’s my girlfriend.
Michael: Your nurse became your girlfriend? Sweet.
Billy: She was never my nurse. I met her at Chili’s. She was my waitress.
Michael: Chili’s is great.
Michael: Welkommen, Bienvenue, and welcome to Monte Carlo! Dwight. I am no longer your boss. Lady Fortune is your boss.
Stanley: [Under his breath] Will Lady Fortune give me a raise?
Michael: Shut it, shut it, shut it. Will Lady Fortune be your mistress? Only time will tell, my friends. Leave all your preconceived notions about casinos at the door. Old friends, new lovers, and the disabled! Welcome all! Great, okay. Shuffle up and deal. Let’s get it started! Black-Eyed Crows.
Dealer: Okay, the game is No-Limit Texas Hold’em. Good luck, everybody. That’s at least four red chips to you, sir.
Michael: All-in. [Other players fold their hands]
Stanley: [Under his breath] Will Lady Fortune give me a raise?
Michael: Shut it, shut it, shut it. Will Lady Fortune be your mistress? Only time will tell, my friends. Leave all your preconceived notions about casinos at the door. Old friends, new lovers, and the disabled! Welcome all! Great, okay. Shuffle up and deal. Let’s get it started! Black-Eyed Crows.
Dealer: Okay, the game is No-Limit Texas Hold’em. Good luck, everybody. That’s at least four red chips to you, sir.
Michael: All-in. [Other players fold their hands]
Michael: Bluffing is a key part of poker, which is too bad, because I’m not very good at bluffing. Did you believe me?
Toby: I’ll call.
Michael: What are… That’s insane.
Toby: I have good cards.
Michael: Well, Toby, I went all-in on the first hand, so doesn’t that tell you that I might have good cards, too? So don’t be stupid. Just take it back.
Dealer: No, I’m sorry. He can’t, sir. He’s gone all-in.
Michael: Okay, all right, whatever.
Dealer: Flip them.
Michael: You really screwed that up. [Michael leaves]
Meredith: Wow.
Michael: What are… That’s insane.
Toby: I have good cards.
Michael: Well, Toby, I went all-in on the first hand, so doesn’t that tell you that I might have good cards, too? So don’t be stupid. Just take it back.
Dealer: No, I’m sorry. He can’t, sir. He’s gone all-in.
Michael: Okay, all right, whatever.
Dealer: Flip them.
Michael: You really screwed that up. [Michael leaves]
Meredith: Wow.
Toby: I don’t really play cards, but I’m not gonna lie to you. It felt really good to take money from Michael. Gonna chase that feeling.
Dwight: I expect to do very well tonight. I have an acute ability to read people. Jim, for instance, has a huge tell. When he gets a good hand, he coughs.
Jim: [coughs] I will raise. [Dwight sighs and folds his cards] Thanks.
Jim: It’s the weirdest thing. Every time I cough, he folds.
Carol: Wow, bad luck.
Michael: Yeah, whatever. Hey, you know what? If luck weren’t involved, I would always be winning. [Sees Jan] Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Jan: Michael?
Michael: Jan.
Jan: Hi.
Michael: Look, okay, I think we’re all adults here, and it has always been my understanding that we have an open relationship.
Jan: What are you… Just… Wait, what’re you talking about?
Carol: What does that mean?
Michael: After you said you weren’t coming, I invited Carol to come and I don’t think that I did anything wrong.
Jan: No. No, you didn’t. Hi, I’m Jan. I’m Michael’s boss.
Carol: Hi, hi.
Jan: Does anyone want a drink?
Carol: No, I’m good.
Jan: Okay. [Carol stares at Michael]
Michael: Um…
Dwight: Hey, hey.
Michael: Hey. What…
Dwight: Jan’s here.
Michael: Yeah, whatever. Hey, you know what? If luck weren’t involved, I would always be winning. [Sees Jan] Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Jan: Michael?
Michael: Jan.
Jan: Hi.
Michael: Look, okay, I think we’re all adults here, and it has always been my understanding that we have an open relationship.
Jan: What are you… Just… Wait, what’re you talking about?
Carol: What does that mean?
Michael: After you said you weren’t coming, I invited Carol to come and I don’t think that I did anything wrong.
Jan: No. No, you didn’t. Hi, I’m Jan. I’m Michael’s boss.
Carol: Hi, hi.
Jan: Does anyone want a drink?
Carol: No, I’m good.
Jan: Okay. [Carol stares at Michael]
Michael: Um…
Dwight: Hey, hey.
Michael: Hey. What…
Dwight: Jan’s here.
Dwight: Give me the dice.
Kevin: Come on, Dwight.
Dwight: Let’s go.
Billy: It’s all on you, baby. Let’s go.
Angela: Good evening, Dwight. What is this?
Dwight: Evening, Angela. This is craps. I need to roll an eight. If I do, everyone wins.
Kevin: Yes.
Angela: Then roll an eight.
Dwight: Thank you, Angela.
Angela: Good luck, Dwight.
Dwight: Yeah! Yeah! [Kisses Angela, she slaps him and walks away smiling]
Kevin: Dwight, let’s keep it going. Let’s keep it going. Let’s go.
Oscar: Let it ride. Let it all ride.
Dwight: Give me the dice!
Kevin: Come on, Dwight.
Dwight: Let’s go.
Billy: It’s all on you, baby. Let’s go.

Kevin: Dwight, let’s keep it going. Let’s keep it going. Let’s go.
Oscar: Let it ride. Let it all ride.
Dwight: Give me the dice!
Jim: Yeah, right.
Pam: “Yeah, right,” what?
Jim: What was this? [Makes face]
Pam: [Laughs] I have good cards.
Jim: Really?
Pam: Mhmm, And I’m gonna take you all-in.
Jim: Wow. I think you’re bluffing.
Kevin: Yeah, I think she’s full of it.
Pam: Straight.
Jim: Oh. Three nines.
Kevin: Pam. Jim Halpert, ladies and gentlemen.
Jim: Thank you very much. It was fun.
Pam: “Yeah, right,” what?
Jim: What was this? [Makes face]
Pam: [Laughs] I have good cards.
Jim: Really?

Jim: No, I…
Pam: Did you wanna do that now? We can go inside. I’m feeling kind of good tonight.
Jim: I was just… I’m in love with you.
Pam: What?
Jim: I’m really sorry if that’s weird for you to hear, but I needed you to hear it. Probably not good timing, I know that. I just…
Pam: What are you doing? What do you expect me to say to that?
Jim: I just needed you to know. Once.
Pam: Well, I um… I… I can’t.
Jim: Yeah.

He got the girl that he works with and he got the girl that he buys real estate from. So, I’ve got my New York girl and my local flavor. Life is good.
Pam: [On phone] About 10 minutes ago. No, I didn’t know what to say. Yes, I know. Um, I don’t know, mom, he’s my best friend. Yeah, he’s great. Yeah, I think I am. [Jim enters] I have to go. I will. Listen, Jim… [They kiss]

Dwight: Do you need anything?
Michael: No.
Dwight: Should I get water or donuts?
Michael: No.
Dwight: Come on, let’s go. Take a seat.
Oscar: What’s going on, Michael?
Michael: I want somebody to give me the name of one of our biggest competitors.
Dwight: Office Depot!
Michael: Good. Yes, that will work. All right. Now I need a plural noun. [All groaning]

Michael: Good. Yes, that will work. All right. Now I need a plural noun. [All groaning]
Pam: Apparently Michael has come up with a Dunder Mifflin Mad Lib, and he’s making us play it with him. We are so happy. No. I’d like to choose a different adjective.
Michael: How about a location?
Dwight: The planet Caprica.
Michael: Where the hell is that?
Dwight: It’s from Battlestar Galactica.
Michael: Okay, all right.
Stanley: I am going back to my desk…
Michael: No, no, no. No, no, not until you give me an adjective.
Stanley: Annoying.
Michael: We already have that. So…
Toby: Frustrating.
Michael: No, Toby, damn it, come on! We already have that. I need something fun. Something like fat or smelly. Or pukey. Pukey. Pukey’s good. Okay. Pukey. Now I need a noun.
Phyllis: Ass.
Michael: Good. Thank you, Phyllis. That wasn’t so hard. All right, here we go. “Office Depot is an annoying store. One day Creed went there to buy paper. And he ran into irritating Cylons.”
Dwight: Yeah, get them, Creed!
Michael: “One of them was named Michael Scott, and he was an…” Oh, damn it. Okay. Okay, okay, we’re… Okay, we’re starting over.
Dwight: The planet Caprica.
Michael: Where the hell is that?

Deleted Scene 2 Dwight: My charity is the Farm Defense Fund. It’s one of the best organizations that fights infestation of the beet armyworm.
Deleted Scene 3 Jim: My charity is the Lackawanna County Volunteer Sheriff’s Department, because Dwight’s a Volunteer Sheriff. So I thought this was a perfect opportunity to support/mock him.
Deleted Scene 4 Dwight: I don’t believe that Jim moved that coat rack. But if he did, he has an obligation to use his gift wisely. With great power comes great responsibility. They could do a cross-section of his brain to find out more. But I don’t think it’s true, though.
Deleted Scene 5 Michael: Look, if anything goes missing, we will reimburse.
Darryl: Yeah. Can Dunder Mifflin afford that?
Michael: Dang! Paper making paper, I.e. money.
Darryl: What?
Michael: Paper money. [clears throat] Yeah. The company’s doing fine.
Darryl: Mike, we’re not shipping as much as we did last year.
Michael: Hey. Okay. You know what? Don’t even think. I command you to just go down and have fun tonight. All right? Don’t think about it.
Darryl: Yeah. Can Dunder Mifflin afford that?
Michael: Dang! Paper making paper, I.e. money.
Darryl: What?
Michael: Paper money. [clears throat] Yeah. The company’s doing fine.
Darryl: Mike, we’re not shipping as much as we did last year.
Michael: Hey. Okay. You know what? Don’t even think. I command you to just go down and have fun tonight. All right? Don’t think about it.
Michael: Our numbers are down, yes, but we have a heck of a crew here in Scranton. Hardworking, motivated, dynamic. Every single last one of them. They follow my lead. I sort of set the tone. And it doesn’t hurt that my ex works for corporate. Jan loves this branch, and I think that’s really more than half the battle.
Deleted Scene 6 Pam: It is extremely stressful, planning a wedding by yourself. It’s like a job. I mean, it’s fun, but it kind of becomes like work. I’ve already planned it all out in my head. But it’s just in my head.
Deleted Scene 7 Meredith’s Vet: Hey. Meredith, right?
Meredith: Oh, God. Oh, no. I have this problem all the time. I never remember people I’ve had sex with.
Meredith’s Vet: I’m your vet.
Meredith: Oh, right.
Meredith’s Vet: And we had sex in the parking lot.
Meredith: Oh, God. Oh, no. I have this problem all the time. I never remember people I’ve had sex with.
Meredith’s Vet: I’m your vet.
Meredith: Oh, right.
Meredith’s Vet: And we had sex in the parking lot.
