Pam
Don't we all?
1
1
Pilot
21
Michael
I'm sorry?
1
1
Pilot
21
Pam
Nothing.
1
1
Pilot
21
Michael
If you're unhappy with your compensation, maybe you should take it up with HR. OK. Not today, OK? Pam, just be professional. [Sighs]

Pilot
22
Michael
I think I'm a role model here. I think I garner people's respect. [Imitating a PA] Attention all Dunder Mifflin employees, please. We have a meeting in the conference room, ASAP.
1

Pilot
23
Michael
People I respect, heroes of mine, would be Bob Hope... Abraham Lincoln, definitely. Bono. And probably God would be the fourth one. And I just think all those people really helped the world in so many ways that it's really beyond words. It's really incalculable.

Pilot
24
Michael
Now I know there's some rumors out there and I just kind of want to set the record straight.
1
1
Pilot
24
Dwight
I'm Assistant Regional Manager. I should know first.
1
1
Pilot
24
Michael
Assistant to the Regional Manager.
1
1
Pilot
24
Dwight
OK, um, can you just tell me please? Just tell me quietly. Can you whisper it in my ear?
1
1
Pilot
24
Michael
I'm about to tell everybody. I'm just about to tell everybody.
1
1
Pilot
24
Oscar
Can't you just tell us.
1
1
Pilot
24
Dwight
Please, OK? Do you want me to tell 'em?
1
1
Pilot
24
Michael
You don't know what it is. [Laughs]
1
1
Pilot
24
Dwight
OK. You tell 'em. With my permission. Permission granted.
1
1
Pilot
24
Michael
I don't need your permission.
1
1
Pilot
24
Dwight
Go ahead.
1
1
Pilot
24
Michael
Corporate has deemed it appropriate to enforce an ultimatum upon me. And Jan is thinking about downsizing either the Stamford branch or this branch.
1
1
Pilot
25
Ryan
I heard they might be closing this branch down. That's just the rumor going around. This is my first day. I don't really know.
1
1
Pilot
26
Oscar
Yeah but Michael, what if they downsize here?
1
1
Pilot
26
Michael
Not gonna happen.
1
1
Pilot
26
Stanley
It could be out of your hands Michael.
1
1
Pilot
26
Michael
It won't be out of my hands Stanley, OK. I promise you that.
1
1
Pilot
26
Stanley
Can you promise that?
1
1
Pilot
26
Dwight
On his mother's grave.
1
1
Pilot
26
Michael
No.
1
1
Pilot
26
Phyllis
What?
1
1
Pilot
26
Michael
Well, yeah, it is a promise. And frankly, I'm a little insulted that you have to keep asking about it.
1
1
Pilot
26
Stanley
It's just that we need to know.
1
1
Pilot
26
Michael
I know. Hold on a second. I think Pam wanted to say something. Pam, you had a look that you wanted to ask a question just then.
1
1
Pilot
26
Pam
I was in the meeting with Jan and she did say that it could be this branch that gets the axe.
1
1
Pilot
26
Man
Are you sure about that?
1
1
Pilot
26
Michael
Well, Pam maybe you should stick to the ongoing confidentiality agreement of meetings.
1
1
Pilot
26
Dwight
Pam, information is power.
1
1
Pilot
26
Stanley
You can't say for sure whether it'll be us or them, can you?
1
1
Pilot
26
Michael
No, Stanley. No, you did not see me in there with her. I said if Corporate wants to come in here and interfere, then they're gonna have to go through me. Right? You can go mess with Josh's people, but I'm the head of this family, and you ain't gonna be messing with my chillin.
1
1
Pilot
27
Jim
If I left, what would I do with all this useless information in my head? You know? Tonnage price of manila folders? Um, Pam's favorite flavor of yogurt, which is mixed berry.
1
1
Pilot
28
Pam
Jim said mixed berries? Well, yeah, he's on to me. Um... [Laughs]
1
1
Pilot
29
Michael
Watch out for this guy. Dwight Schrute in the building. This is Ryan, the new temp.
1
1
Pilot
29
Ryan
What's up? Nice to meet you.
1
1
Pilot
29
Michael
Introduce yourself. Be polite.
1
1
Pilot
29
Dwight
Dwight Schrute, Assistant Regional Manager.
1
1
Pilot
29
Michael
Assistant to the Regional Manager. So, uh, Dwight tell him about the kung fu and the car and everything.
1
1
Pilot
29
Dwight
Uh... yeah I got a '78 280Z. Bought it for $1,200. Fixed it up. It's now worth three grand.
1
1
Pilot
29
Michael
That's his profit.
1
1
Pilot
29
Dwight
New engine, new suspension, I got a respray. I've got some photos.
1
1
Pilot
30
Dwight
Damn it! Jim!
1
1
Pilot
30
Michael
OK. Hold on, hold on. The judge is in session. What is the problem here?
1
1
Pilot
30
Dwight
He put my stuff in Jell-O again.
1
1
Pilot
30
Pam
[Laughing]
1
1
Pilot
30
Dwight
That's real professional thanks. That's the third time and it wasn't funny the first two times either Jim.
1
1
Pilot
31
Dwight
It's OK here, but people sometimes take advantage because it's so relaxed. I'm a volunteer Sheriff's Deputy on the weekends. And you cannot screw around there. That's sort of one of the rules.
1
1
Pilot
32
Michael
What is that?
1
1
Pilot
32
Dwight
That is my stapler.
1
1
Pilot
32
Michael
No, no, no. Do not take it out. You have to eat it out of there, because there are starving people in the world [turns to camera] which I hate, and it is a waste of that kind of food.
1
1
Pilot
32
Dwight
OK you know what, you can be a witness. [points to Ryan] Can you reprimand him?
1
1
Pilot
32
Jim
How do you know it was me?
1
1
Pilot
32
Dwight
It's always you. Are you going to discipline him or not?
1
1
Pilot
32
Michael
Discipline. Kinky! [Laughs] All right, here's the deal you guys. The thing about a practical joke is you have to know when to start and as well as when to stop.
1
1
Pilot
32
Dwight
Yeah.
1
1
Pilot
32
Michael
And yeah, Jim this is the time to stop putting Dwight's personal effects into Jell-O.
1
1
Pilot
32
Jim
OK. Dwight, I'm sorry, because I have always been your biggest flan.
1
1
Pilot
32
Michael
[Laughing] Nice. That's the way it is around here. It just kind of goes round and round.
1
1
Pilot
32
Ryan
You should've put him in custardy.
1
1
Pilot
32
Michael
Hey! Yes! New guy! He scores.
1
1
Pilot
32
Dwight
OK, that's great. I guess what I'm most concerned with is damage to company property. That's all.
1
1
Pilot
32
Michael
Pudding. Pudding... I'm trying to think of another dessert to do.
1
1
Pilot
33
Jim
Do you like going out at the end of the week for a drink?
1
1
Pilot
33
Pam
Yeah.
1
1
Pilot
33
Jim
That's why we're all going out. So we can have an end-of-the-week-drink.
1
1
Pilot
33
Pam
So when are we going out?
1
1
Pilot
33
Jim
Tonight, hopefully.
1
1
Pilot
33
Pam
OK. Yeah.
1
1
Pilot
33
Roy
Hey, man.
1
1
Pilot
33
Jim
What's going on?
1
1
Pilot
33
Roy
Hey, baby.
1
1
Pilot
33
Pam
Hey.
1
1
Pilot
34
Pam
Roy's my fiance. We've been engaged about three years. We were supposed to get married in September but I think we're gonna get married in the spring.
1
1
Pilot
35
Pam
Do you mind if I go out for a drink with these guys?
1
1
Pilot
35
Roy
No, no. Come on. Let's get out of here and go home.
1
1
Pilot
35
Pam
OK. I'm gonna be a few minutes. So it's only twenty past five. I still have to do my faxes.
1
1
Pilot
35
Jim
You know what? You should come with us. Because you know we're all going out and it could be a good chance for you to see what people are like outside the office. I think it could be fun.
1
1
Pilot
35
Roy
It sounds good. Seriously, we've gotta get going.
1
1
Pilot
35
Jim
Yeah, yeah.
1
1
Pilot
35
Jim
Um... What's in the bag?
1
1
Pilot
35
Roy
Just tell her I'll talk to her later.
1
1
Pilot
35
Jim
No, definitely. All right, dude. Awesome. Will do.
1
1
Pilot
36
Jim
Do I think I'll be invited to the wedding? [scratches head]
1
1
Pilot
37
Michael
So have you felt the vibe yet? We work hard, we play hard. Sometimes we play hard when we should be working hard. Right? I guess the atmosphere that I've created here is that I'm a friend first, and a boss second... and probably an entertainer third. [Knock at door] Just a second. Right? Oh, hey do you like The Jamie K...
1
1
Pilot
37
Ryan
Yeah.
1
1
Pilot
37
Michael
You are gonna be my accomplice. Just go along with it, OK?
1
1
Pilot
37
Ryan
All right.
1
1
Pilot
37
Michael
Just follow my lead. Don't pimp me, all right? Come in. So, uh, Corporate just said that I don't want to...
1
1
Pilot
37
Pam
You got a fax.
1
1
Pilot
37
Michael
Oh, thank you. Pam, can you come in here for a sec. Just have a seat. I was gonna call you in anyway. You know Ryan. As you know, there is going to be downsizing. And you have made my life so much easier in that I am going to have to let you go first.
1
1
Pilot
37
Pam
What? Why?
1
1
Pilot
37
Michael
Why? Well, theft and stealing.
1
1
Pilot
37
Pam
Stealing? What am I supposed to have stolen?
1
1
Pilot
37
Michael
Post-it Notes.
1
1
Pilot
37
Pam
Post-it Notes? What are those worth, 50 cents?
