Is it the cash flow? Is it the inventory? Nuh-uh. It’s the people. The people. My proudest moment here was not when I increased profits by 17% or when I cut expenses without losing a single employee. No, no, no, no, no. It was a young Guatemalan guy. First job in the country, barely spoke English. He came to me, and said, “Mr. Scott, would you be the godfather of my child?” Wow. Wow. Didn’t work out in the end. We had to let him go. He sucked.",Michael 7,"Today is diversity day and someone’s going to come in and talk to us about diversity.

I’m very, very excited.",Michael 8,"How come Chris Rock can do a routine and everybody finds it hilarious and ground-breaking and then I go and do the exact same routine, same comedic timing, and people file a complaint to Corporate?

Nobody knows what their race is, so… I want you to really go for it, cause this is real. You know, this isn’t just an exercise. This is real life. And… I have a dream that you will really let the sparks fly. Get ‘er done.",Michael 13,Why? Because Martin Luther King is a hero of mine. There’s this great Chris Rock bit about how streets named after Martin Luther King tend to be more violent.

I have a feeling that this could get kind of volatile. So keep it going.,Michael 16,"The most sacred thing I do is care and provide for my workers, my family. I give them money. I give them food. Not directly, but through the money. I heal them. Today, I am in charge of picking a great new health care plan. Right? That’s what this is all about. Does that make me their doctor? Um… Yes, in a way. Yeah, like a specialist.",Michael 17,"If Dwight fails, then that is strike two, and good for me for, ah, for giving him a second chance.

Unless he fails, and we’ve talked about that already.",Michael 18,"Do I know what the surprise is? Hell no! It doesn’t matter. The point is, they’re not unhappy anymore.

And it’s part of my job, but… blah! I hate it. I think the main difference between me and Donald Trump is that, uh, I get no pleasure out of saying the words, “You’re fired.” “You’re foir-ed. Uh, you’re foir-ed.” It just makes people sad, and an office can’t function that way. No way. “You’re foir-ed.” I think if I had a catchphrase it would be, “You’re hired, and you can work here as long as you want.” But that’s unrealistic, so…",Michael 24,"Can you get her? She’s right there. That is Meredith, the birthday girl. And this… is Meredith’s card. Happy Bird-Day. Um, let’s see. Jim, Jim wrote, “Meredith, I heard you’re turning 46, but, come on, you’re an accountant. Just fudge the numbers.” Not bad, pretty funny, I don’t appreciate condoning corporate fraud though. Uh, here’s the thing. Whatever I write here has to be really, really funny. Because people out there are expecting it. I’ve already set the bar really high.

My idea. Last time I was down there, I noticed they’d put up a couple of hoops, and I play basketball every weekend. So I thought, “This might be kinda fun.” And so I started messing around and… I’m sinking a few, you know. Swish, swish, swish. Nothing but net. And their jaws just dropped to the floor.

But we did because we were ahead.,Michael 38,"Do I have a nickname on the court, um? Well, The Answer would be nice, but it’s taken. So, uh, probably The Question. The Answer dishes to The Question. The Question back to The Answer. Answer over to The Question. The Answer, whew, three points. The Question, whew, whew, six points. Nothing but net. Question, who’s the best player in the league? Answer, The Question. Or the Drunkmeister.",Michael 39,"Birdie. He’s not the guy with the cheeks. Kenny G. Is… if you knew jazz, you’d know who I mean. Kenny G. God. Glad I remembered that.

Man, did they move paper!",Michael 43,"I think in order to be a ladies man, it’s imperative that people don’t know you’re a ladies man, so I kind of play that close to the chest.

I don’t know.",Michael 44,"Do I have a special someone? Uh well, yeah of course. A bunch of ’em. My employees.

What they don’t understand is that I bought the stuff to impress potential clients. So business related, right?",Michael 131,"People are always coming to me. “Michael, I have a secret. Your the only one I trust.” No thanks, because keeping a secret can only lead to trouble. Like I was watching Cinemax last weekend. This movie, Portrait of a… Prostitute something. Secrets of a Call… More Secrets of a Call Girl. And the lead character, Shila, is framed for murder. She goes on the run and winds up working at a bordello in Malibu.

Packer and I once spent the whole day with our pants off, and when people noticed, we convinced them that",Michael 135,"Another time, Packer held this guy’s head in the toilet for like a minute. Guy had no sense of humor about it. Probably why he wasn’t hired.",Michael 136,"Once, as a joke, Packer banged every chick in the office. It was hysterical.",Michael 137,"Why would somebody ruin a perfectly good carpet? I don’t know. It could be done out of hate. It could be done out of love. It could be completely neutral. Maybe somebody hates the cleaning lady. And, well, she doesn’t do a very good job, obviously, because my office still reeks like you would not believe. I hate her.",Michael 138,You know what? I am beginning to think that what happened to my carpet was an act of terrorism against the office. The only thing that makes any sense.,Michael 139,This was no act of God. A person did this. A person who works in this office. Maybe all of them.,Michael 140,"Last week I would have given a kidney to anyone in this office. I would have reached right into my stomach and pulled it out for them. But now, no. I don’t have the relationship with these people that I thought I did. I hope they ask, so they can hear me say, “Uh… no. I only give my organs to my real friends. Go get yourself a monkey kidney.”",Michael 141,"It takes an advanced sense of humor.

Do black people like pizza?,Michael 151,Ahhh! Excellent.,Michael 152,Is it good to be back. Yeah. I mean I love the guy stuff but to run an office you need men and women. You know why? Because you need to have that crazy sexual tension to keep things interesting.,Michael 153,"This is a business trip. I would have to be a raving lunatic to try to talk to Jan about what happened between us. Her words, not mine. She sent me an email this morning. But, it is Valentine’s Day. It’s New York.

OK, umm, I think, that’s either the Hudson or the East, so we’re back, should be back this way. There’s a lotta pressure on me right now. It’s like Michael Jordan, in the NBA finals.

Let’s do it.",Michael 160,"Yeah, I shot a bunch of footage around the office, edited it together on my Mac. I was thinking of entering it into some festivals. Probably won’t.

She talks such a big game about, “Oh there’s nothing between us and stop talking about it.” And “Border-line harassment when you call me at home.” But let me ask you this, is it just a coincidence that this meeting is taking place on Valentine’s Day? Answer, maybe, but maybe not. We shall see.",Michael 165,"Speaker at the Sales Convention. Been there, done that. Went there again, did it again. Two years in a row. Consecutive.

No. I’m going to be thinking about how many friends I have, and my children, and my comedy albums. I mean, I have a yacht, so I obviously did pretty well money wise.",Michael 400,"Use to have two cars, traded ’em in, now we’re down to one. Good economic sense. Although the new car is a Porsche. For her.",Michael 401,"I’m sorry Mr. O’Brian, I didn’t mean to interrupt your dinner. I just have a very exciting offer. My records indicate that you have expressed interest in losing some weight. Well, what if I told you that I have a pill that will make you 50 pounds lighter in 5 minutes? How does that sound? Amazing right? Well, it won’t be that fast, but it will–– it will be that easy.",Michael 402,"Yes I forgot about Ryan’s presentation. And yes, it would have been nice to do well with the first presentation he had given me. But you know what else would have been nice? Winning the lottery.",Michael 403,"I’ve never done this before. I’ve never quit anything in my life. So, you are filming history.",Michael 404,"I was never in this for the money. But it turns out that the money was an absolute necessity for me.

But the good thing about the American dream is that you can just go to sleep, and try it all again the next night.",Michael 405,"I’ve always wanted to be in the witness protection program.

When I was five, I imagined that there was such a thing as a unicorn. And this is before I had even heard of one, or seen one. I just drew a picture of a horse that could fly over rainbows, and had a huge spike in its head. And I was five, five years old. Couldn’t even talk yet.",Michael 411,"We have three scenes to film, big scenes. We have a song to write. So let’s get cracking. Kelly, I want you to do makeup.

The uh, geniuses at corporate rejected my commercial and tonight they are airing the brain dead version. So welcome one and all to the world premiere of Corporate Crapfest!",Michael 413,"It all starts with an idea. But you can never tell where an idea will end up. Because ideas spread, they change, grow. They connect us with the world. And in a fast moving world, where good news moves at the speed of time , and bad news isn’t always what it seems. Because when push comes to shove we all deserve a second chance. To score. Dunder Mifflin. Limitless paper in a paperless world.",Michael 414,"You cannot take the hilarious black guy from the office. Stanley is part of what makes this branch so extraordinary. The bluesy wisdom, the sassy remarks, the crossword puzzles, the smile, those big watery red eyes.

Scranton is not lame. Scranton is the cool, fun branch. We’re like Animal House.",Michael 416,"We tried and we failed. Stanley, you may go.

Blacks do crack! Not crack the drug.,Michael 420,"Day One. I’m in the interior of the vast Pennsylvania wilderness. I’ve brought with me only the bare essentials. A knife, roll of duct tape, in case I need to craft some shelter or make some sort of water vessel. It’s hot today. The sun is in the two-thirds easterly quadrant, which would make it about 2 o’clock in the afternoon. It’s really beating down on me now. I think that I want to get a little more comfortable because the sun is depleting my resources. OK. OH, there we go. Watch that I don’t hit my corroded artery here…",Michael 421,"There we go. Much better. Now everything I brought with me can be used.

Doesn’t even matter.",Michael 426,"Well it is a little chillier than I had thought, so I have fashioned my hat back into my pants. Several hours in, time for me to find some nourishment. Now, these woods are full of creatures that can sustain human life. Things like, uh, squirrels, nice juicy rabbit would be delicious.",Michael 427,"I have made this spear, with which I will impale my dinner. And it couldn’t come a moment too soon because I have been without food for a good three hours or so. I’m startin’ to feel it a little bit. Ohh… It’s Creed’s birthday. Happy Birthday to you. Happy Birthday to you. Happy Birthday to Creed. Happy Birthday to you. Happy birthday, buddy.",Michael 428,"Well if you take a look at this, I tented my pants. I’ve made myself a nice pants tent shelter. And this little guy may be Dunder Mifflin paper some day.",Michael 429,"Man became civilized for a reason.

And it’s really not about me, it’s about my grandkids, it’s about my great grandkids… I can come back here when I’m 100, and I can find that piece of cement and say, “That’s me. Look kids, your daddy left that face hole…” I dunno, it’s a good feeling.",Michael 445,"I am good person, and sometimes, good people don’t get no respect. Rodney Dangerfield. Hey, I don’t get no respect. No respect at all. When I was in the sandbox as a kid, I got not respect. My wife likes to talk after sex, so she called me from a hotel room, and said, “I don’t respect you!” Ahh, thoughtless. Aw, you know what don’t get no respect? Airplane food. Why don’t they just make the plane out of the airline food? My wife don’t get no respect, some–take her, please, for example. If you don’t get no respect, you might be redneck. Respect is niiice.

And that you were the blind one. He’s the most… important thing in my life right now.",Michael 452,"Today I did something stupid. I questioned myself. And I will never do that again.

Just like me.",Michael 453,"Yeah, kiss her. Kiss her good.",Michael 454,"Well, kids today have a very short attention span.

You’re not even dating.” She’s my friend… and… ultimately my strategy is to merge this into a relationship… without her even knowing. Uh…,Michael 474,I will be honest with you. That car ride did not go well and that was not my fault. The only reason I am standing out here right now is because I don’t want to take the elevator with her. And I am holding on to her leftovers.,Michael 475,"How do you tell somebody that you care about deeply, “I told you so.” Gently with a rose? In a funny way, like it’s a hilarious joke?

I think they are beautiful in all sorts of different ways. I try to pick up and hold a baby every day, if possible, because it nourishes me. It feeds my soul. Babies are drawn to me, and I think it’s because they see me as one of them. But cooler, and with my life put together a little bit. If a baby were president, there would be no taxes, there would be no war. There would be no government, and things could get terrible.

Alright? Conference room, 15 minutes. Half an hour. Alright?",Michael 484,"To recoup their losses, I am planning a little charity auction, where people from all over Scranton can come and bid on our goods and services. I’m calling it crime-aid.

And, so he’s like “What do I do? Where do I go? Do I go to the insensitive carrot supplier, the insensitive carrot salesman? Or do I go to the nice carrot salesman, who will maybe charge a few cents more per ream of carrot, but guarantee next-day delivery on your carrots? Most companies need their carrots the next day.

The women, the pancakes, the man of mystery…",Michael 493,"A concierge is like the Winnipeg equivalent of a geisha. This is a woman who has been trained in the fine art of fanciness and pleasure. And when you meet one, it is intoxicating. Just what the doctor ordered.",Michael 494,"Everyone is going to end up dying someday. And I think it’s better to die with people you like… like Oscar, and Andy, and concierge Marie… than to know that there’s somebody out there that you love that you’re not with.",Michael 495,"Why have I stayed at Dunder Mifflin for so long? Certainly not because of the paycheck. ‘Cause I could be making more money as a doctor or a professional athlete. I think it’s because they respect me. A boss that will not fire you, even though you just tell him off… right to his face… over the hone. That’s respect.",Michael 496,"I learned a while back that if I don’t text 911 people will not return my calls. Um, but now people always return my calls because they think that something horrible has happened.",Michael 497,"I tried, I tried. I tried to talk to Toby and be his friend but that is like trying to be friends with an evil… snail. I feel like I’m dying inside. I feel like Neve Campbell in Sream II.

And I need to figure out a way to keep this money without having everybody hate me.",Michael 500,"What did we learn this week? Well, one, thanks to me, my team is much, much faster at coming to decisions than I thought they would be.

I want Meredith to get better. That’s my only wish. But you know what? My wishes never come true, so I’m not going to wish that on her. I– a watch would be nice.",Michael 504,As it turns out you can’t just check someone into rehab against their will. They have to do it voluntarily. They have to hit rock bottom.

My presence has been requested by Chief Financial Officer, David Wallace. He says that he wants to talk about big picture stuff. And, I’ll be honest, I have little or no idea what that means, so… probably bad.",Michael 506,"Sometimes I’ll start a sentence, and I don’t even know where it’s going.

So now replace sharks with paper companies and that is all you need to know about business.",Michael 510,"Nobody should have to go to work thinking, “Oh, this is the place that I might die today.” That’s what a hospital is for.

That would be humiliating.",Michael 536,"I did what I had to do. I stepped in. I took charge. That’s what being a man is. And earlier today, I was freaking out. Pam stepped up. She was the man.

That’ll show ’em.",Michael 542,"Who would have thought, that the thing that would save this company would be work? And pancakes? In the end, this day definitely had its ups and downs. I realize that we don’t have the biggest office. Which is a surprise, because 165 square feet sounds like a lot. But, we have people with the biggest hearts. And I think for a small company that is really Someone went to the bathroom. That is really what’s important.",Michael 543,"I color code all my info. I wrote “gay son” in green. Green means go, so I know to go ahead and shut up about it. Orange means “Orange you glad you didn’t bring it up?” Most colors mean “Don’t say it.”",Michael 544,"I wanted to start a company, not a war. Because in a war, you always fight those you are closest to. And the great tragedy of the civil war is that brother fought against brother. For what? What purpose did that serve?

It is wonderful to be the center of attention.",Michael 568,"How do you un-tell something? You can’t. You can’t put words back in your mouth. What you can do is spread false gossip so that people think that everything that’s been said is untrue, including “Stanley is having an affair.” It’s like the end of Spartacus.

And… I’m boring myself just talking about this.",Jim 1163,"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.",Jim 1164,Do I think I’ll be invited to the wedding?,Jim 1165,"This is my biggest sale of the year. They love me over there for some reason. I’m not really sure why but I make one call over there every year, just to renew their account, and that one call ends up being 25% of my commission for the whole year, so I buy a mini bottle of champagne, celebrate a little. And this year I’m pushing recycled paper on them for one percent more. I know. I’m getting cocky. Right?",Jim 1166,"Mr. Decker, we didn’t lose your sale today, did we? Excellent. OK. Let me just get your… what’s that? No, we didn’t close last time. I just need your… Oh. W-What code were you given? Oh, OK. That’s actually another salesman here. I can redo it if you want to do that. Oh, he gave you a discount? No, I don’t blame you.",Jim 1167,Uh… Not a bad day.,Jim 1168,"Any time Michael asks me to do anything, I just tell him that Dwight should do it.",Jim 1169,"Right now, this is just a job. If I advance any higher in this company then this would be my career. And uh, well, if this were my career, I’d have to throw myself in front of a train.",Jim 1170,"At that moment, I was so happy. I mean, everything Dwight does annoys me.",Jim 1171,"And I spend hours thinking of ways to get back at him, but only in ways that could get me arrested. And then here he comes and he says “No, Jim, here’s a way.”",Jim 1172,That was beautiful. All her idea too. Awesome. She is so great.,Jim 1173,"Pam gets a little down. Her toaster oven broke. Um, which she got at her engagement shower. Um, for a wedding that still has yet to be set… and that was three years ago.",Jim 1174,"Basketball? It was kind of my thing in high school. And I’m, yeah, I’m looking forward to playing. You know, I think I’m gonna impress a few people in here.",Jim 1175,"Pam and I are good buddies. I’m sort of Pam’s go-to guy for her problems. You know with stuff like work, or uh, her fiance Roy. Or uh… Nope, those are pretty much her only two problems.",Jim 1176,What a great year for the Dundies.,Jim 1177,"The weird part about this whole deal this that Michael truly believes that these awards are inspiring and motivational. I mean, he puts more effort and time and commitment into the Dundies than anything else he does all year. Which is probably why this branch will be downsized.",Jim 1178,"Hey, um… what has two thumbs and hates Todd Packer? This guy!",Jim 1179,"I’m in an office relationship. It’s special. Um… she’s nice. She’s shy. She’s actually here. You want to meet her? Hold on one second. Oh, my God! Put on a shirt! Put on a… . I told you that you’d be on camera. I’m sorry, she’s European. No, I told you that you’d be on camera. Stop it.",Jim 1180,So that’s what this sound is all day.,Jim 1181,Let the games begin.,Jim 1182,"Yeah, I filled out the expense reports. That took about five minutes and then I closed two sales at lunch time. So, about as productive as any other day. If not more so.",Jim 1183,Okay. Thought people read more books.,Jim 1184,"Dwight is… special. But, I don’t believe that his talents are being used in this office. So Pam and I have put his resume on Monster.com, Google, Craig’s List. We’re really interested most in jobs that take Dwight out of state. Um, preferably Alaska… or India.",Jim 1185,"Um… Whoa. Michael Scott here. Yes, I am regional manager of this orifice. Mmm hmm. Dwight Schrute is amazing. Yeah. No, he is actually the single greatest employee of his generation. Mm hmm. You know what? I’m gonna tell you what. You hire Dwight K. Schrute, and if he does not meet, nay, exceed every one of your wildest expectations, well then, you can hold me, Michael Gary Scott, personally and financially responsible. Okay. Okay. Okay-kay-kay-kay-kay. Okay.",Jim 1186,"That’s just a figure of speech, you know? Blow your brains out? Come on. All it really means is that we’re friends. Who else is she gonna talk to if I’m gone, right? I mean, if she left, I wouldn’t blow my brains out. Of course, I would take that job in Maryland. Because it’s double the pay, and soft shell crab just happens to be my favorite food.",Jim 1187,"Um, well, we are all getting excited to see this fight. The Albany branch is working right through lunch to prevent downsizing, but Michael, he decided to extend our lunch by an hour so we could all go down to the dojo and watch him fight Dwight. Fight… Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, I’m coming, fight…",Jim 1188,"So this possible client they’re talking about, actually a big deal. It’s Lackawanna County. Our whole county. And if we get this, they may not have to downsize our branch. And I could work here for years. And years. Years.",Jim 1189,"I always knew Pam has refused to go to sports games with Roy, but I never knew why. Interesting.",Jim 1190,"I had plans to meet a friend tonight. Which I had to cancel. But this is cool, too. I’m not a complainer.",Jim 1191,"Ok, we didn’t dance. I was totally joking anyway. I mean, it’s not really a date if the girl goes home to her fiance. Right?",Jim 1192,Today is Thursday. But Dwight thinks that it’s Friday. And that’s what I’ll be working on this afternoon.,Jim 1193,"It’s true. I’m having a party. I’ve got three cases of imported beer, a karaoke machine, and I didn’t invite Michael. So three ingredients for a great party. And it’s nothing personal, I just think that if he were there, people wouldn’t be able to relax, and you know, have fun, and my roommate wants to meet everybody. Because I’m pretty sure he thinks that I’m making Dwight up. He is very real.",Jim 1194,"So this year, for the first time ever, I got Pam in Secret Santa. And I got her this teapot, which I know she really wants, so she can make tea at her desk. But I’m also going to stuff it with some inside jokes. Like, this is my high school yearbook photo. She saw it at the party, and it really makes her laugh. Not sure why. What else .. ooh. This is a hot sauce packet. She put this on a hot dog a couple years ago because she thought it was ketchup. And it was really funny, so I kept the other two. This would take a little too long to explain, so I won’t. And this is the card. Because Christmas is the time to tell people how you feel.",Jim 1195,"He obviously forgot to get me something, and then he went in his closet and dug out this little number and then threw it in a bag.",Jim 1196,"To think that my gift for Pam will be used for that, it’s a little too much to handle.",Jim 1197,"Michael stands in the front of the boat and says that he’s king of the world within the first hour, or I give you my next paycheck.",Jim 1198,You know what? I would save the receptionist. I just wanted to clear that up.,Jim 1199,"So, I guess Pam and Dwight are friends now.",Jim 1200,I want to clamp Michael’s face in a George Foreman grill.,Jim 1201,Yeah. On the booze cruise I told Michael about some feelings I used to have for Pam. I had just broken up with Katy and had a couple drinks. And I confided in the world’s worst confidant.,Jim 1202,Well the cats out of the bag. I used to have a crush on Pam and now I don’t. Riveting.,Jim 1203,"Pam’s on vacation and she gets back tomorrow, so it’ll be nice to see her. It’ll be nice, and, uh, she set a date for the wedding with Roy. Uh… June. Summer. So, that’ll be nice. And that’s that.",Jim 1204,What? I did not do that. That sounds disgusting.,Jim 1205,"So I broke up with Katy and haven’t been dating anybody else, so this year I don’t have to worry about Valentine’s Day. It’s gonna be good. I invited a couple of friends over. We’re gonna play some cards and I’ll end up winning a lotta money. Because, they’re idiots. It’s gonna be great.",Jim 1206,"Nah that’s alright. Spend money on her, instead of giving it to us. That’s fine. No, I didn’t even have a seat for you anyway. Yeah, hahaha, alright man, have a good night. Bye.",Jim 1207,"Dwight lives on a beet farm and he practices karate at the forth grade level. And he apparently has a girlfriend, so… I guess there really is someone for everybody.",Jim 1208,"Dwight was the top salesman of the year at our company. He wins a little prize money and gets honored at some convention. It is literally the highest possible honor that a Northeastern Pennsylvania-Based Mid-size Paper Company Regional Salesman can attain, so…",Jim 1209,I’m going to take a trip. I’m going to get out of town for a while… and go someplace… not here.,Jim 1210,Where do I want to go? Um… that is an excellent question. And one I should have probably thought about before I called you. Um…,Jim 1211,"Ok, I didn’t actually major in Public Speaking. But, I did download speeches from some of history’s famous dictators. Like this one . Originally given by Benito Mussolini.",Jim 1212,"“A7557962.” Totally nonsense numbers, but you do what you have to do.",Jim 1213,"So, yesterday Dwight found half a joint in the parking lot. Which is unfortunate because as it turns out, Dwight",Jim 1214,Wow. What a terrible day to not be able to talk. Dwight was literally carrying around his own urine and dressed like one of the Village People. Why does he do the things that he does for Michael? I just don’t get it. What is he getting out of that relationship?,Jim 1215,"Yeah, I mean it’s inevitable. I definitely overhear some wedding preparation, but I’m fine with it. She hears me arranging my social life. And we both have to hear Dwight order deer urine over the Internet, so it evens out.",Jim 1216,Yes! Five bucks each. And it was totally worth it.,Jim 1217,"That actually took a while. I had to put, uh, more and more nickels into his handset, till he got used to the weight, and then I just… took ’em all out.",Jim 1218,"Just a simple macro. You know, these actually don’t sound that funny one after another. But he does deserve it, though.",Jim 1219,"Yeah, I just moved it an inch every time he went to the bathroom. And that’s how I spent my entire day that day.",Jim 1220,"Why did I talk to Jan about transferring? Well, you know… I have no future here.",Jim 1221,I will raise. Thanks.,Jim 1222,"It’s the weirdest thing. Every time I cough, he folds.",Jim 1223,"I can’t say whether Dunder Mifflin paper is less flammable, sir, but I can assure that it is certainly not more flammable.",Jim 1224,Why did I transfer to Stamford? I think that’s pretty obvious. I got promoted! And you can’t beat that view… right?,Jim 1225,"I ate a tuna sandwich, on my first day. So, Andy started calling me Big Tuna. …I don’t think any of them actually know my real name.",Jim 1226,What’s gay-dar?,Jim 1227,I miss that.,Jim 1228,"You know, when I saw Dwight, I realized how stupid and petty all those pranks I pulled on him were. And then he spoke. I wonder how hard it would be to get a copy of his room key.",Jim 1229,"At the Stamford branch, they all play this World War II video game called Call of Duty, and they’re all really into it. I’m told it started as a team building exercise. Unfortunately I really suck at it. We didn’t play many video games in Scranton. Instead we’d do stuff like, uh, Pam and I would sometimes hum the same high pitched note, and try to get Dwight to make an appointment with an ear doctor. And uh, Pam called it… Pretendenitus.",Jim 1230,Things are a little bit… different here in Stamford. It’s not bad.,Jim 1231,"I called the manufacturer, who referred me to distributor, who referred me to the vending machine company, who told me that they sell them in the machines in the building next door.",Jim 1232,Sorry.,Jim 1233,"I started biking into work. Josh does it and he lives a lot farther away than I do. And also it saves gas money, keeps me in shape… helps the environment. And now I know it makes me really sweaty for work.",Jim 1234,"Once a quarter, the sales staff at this branch has to stay late to do order form consolidation… which, amazingly, is even less interesting than it sounds.",Jim 1235,"I don’t have a ton of contact with the Scranton branch, but, before I left, I took a box of Dwight’s stationery, so, from time to time, I send Dwight faxes. From himself. From the future. “Dwight, at 8 A.M. today, someone poisons the coffee. Do not drink the coffee. More instructions will follow. Cordially, Future Dwight.”",Jim 1236,"I worked in Scranton for a really long time. And uh, it’s going to be weird that it’s all disappearing. I mean, I always knew that the branch would shut down someday. I just figured it would be because Michael sold the building for some magic beans.",Jim 1237,"Where do I stand with Pam? Um… no idea. I mean, we’re friends. Always have been friends. Um… .that is where we stand.",Jim 1238,It reminds me of the orientation video showed on my first day. ‘The Scranton Witch Project’.,Jim 1239,"Yes. I have started to see Karen. It’s very new, and… not really ready to talk about it openly yet, just because, I think, once the word gets out there, it might affect the way people behave around us or… I dunno. Just, not yet.",Jim 1240,"I know Pam pretty well. I know the things that she likes, and, just as important, I know the things that she hates. So, one of the things that she likes is pranks. And, the things that she hates…",Jim 1241,"It’s a bold move, to Photoshop yourself into a picture with your girlfriend and her kids on a ski trip with their real father. But then again, Michael’s a bold guy. Is bold the right word?",Jim 1242,"I feel like there’s a chance for me to start over. And if I fall back into the same kind of things I used to do., then … what am I doing?",Jim 1243,"Yup, looks like the Scranton people and the Stamford people are finally coming together. And that’s what you want, right?",Jim 1244,"Oh no, this is different. The CIA thing, that was a prank on Dwight. This is more like a umm… OK, it’s pretty much the same thing.",Jim 1245,"Dwight and I used to go on sales calls all the time. In fact, I have a picture to remember that time. Oh young Jim. There is just so much I need to warn you about. And yet, tragically, I cannot.",Jim 1246,"I miss Dwight. Congratulations, universe. You win.",Jim 1247,"Prima nocta, I believe from the movie Braveheart, and confirmed on wikipedia, is when the king got to deflower every new bride on her wedding night. So…",Jim 1248,"Karen and I had a long talk last night and the night before that and uh, every night, for the last five nights.",Jim 1249,"Michael referred me to a male strip club called Banana Slings. Instead, I called the Scholastic Speakers of Pennsylvania.",Jim 1250,"In school, we learned about this scientist who trained dogs to salivate at the sound of a bell by feeding them whenever a bell rang. For the last couple of weeks I’ve been conducting a similar experiment.",Jim 1251,"Hypothetically, if I thought Pam was interested, then… No, it’s totally hypothetical.",Jim 1252,Here’s a ‘not hypothetical’. I’m really happy I’m with Karen.,Jim 1253,"Pam’s with Roy. I’m with Karen. And, uh, Brangelina is with Frangelina. Movin’ on.",Jim 1254,"Why don’t I wanna go? Didn’t expect to need a reason, so let me think here. Um. I don’t know any of these people. It’s an obligation. I don’t like talking paper in my free time, or in my work time. And, did I use the word pointless?",Jim 1255,"I guess… all things considered, I was lucky Dwight was there. And Roy was lucky that Dwight only used pepper spray. And not the nunchucks or the throwing stars.",Jim 1256,"It was a little glass display case for his for his bobblehead. That would have made us even, I think. He saves my life, I get him a box for his desk toy. Even Steven.",Jim 1257,"I… will never say a word. And now, we are even.",Jim 1258,"Last week, I was in a drug store and I saw these glasses. Uh, four dollars. And it only cost me seven dollars to recreate the rest of the ensemble. And that’s a grand total of… eleven dollars.",Jim 1259,"Lord, beer me strength.",Jim 1260,That is pretty cool.,Jim 1261,That’s pretty cool.,Jim 1262,"Oh, my God. I have never seen that look in a man’s eyes… ever. I thought that I might die. On beach day.",Jim 1263,"Karen suggested that I get a haircut for the interview tomorrow so that I could look presentable and not, as she so lovingly puts it, homeless.",Jim 1264,"I broke up with Karen after the job interview, and uh… it was a little awkward when she came back from the city. She told me, very clearly, just because we were broken up didn’t mean she was going anywhere, because she worked really hard for her career. But the next day her desk was empty, and as for me and my current romantic life, I uh… I’m single now and looking, so if you know anybody.",Jim 1265,One day Michael came in complaining about a speed bump on the highway. I wonder who he ran over then.,Jim 1266,"Oh, I’m sorry, is this a working office, and not a French beach?",Jim 1267,"Wait a second. Last time I checked, Dunder Mifflin already has a website. And quite frankly, I’m not really sure what’s wrong with it.",Jim 1268,And… that is why we waited so long to tell people.,Jim 1269,"There’s this cube on the screen, and it bounces around all day, and sometimes it looks like it’s heading right into the corner of the screen, and at the last minute it hits a wall and bounces away. And we are all just dying to see it go right into the corner. Pam claims that she saw it one day when she was alone in the conference room. Okay. I believe she thinks she saw it.",Jim 1270,"Yep, I’m very passionate about Italian food. In fact, um, I’m in love with Italian food.",Jim 1271,"I think it’s great that the company’s making a commercial because not very many people have heard of us. I mean, when I tell people that I work at Dunder Mifflin, they think that we sell mufflers, or muffins, or mittens, or… And frankly all of those sound better than paper, so I let it slide.",Jim 1272,"Hey, could you do me a favor? Could you put that in the DVD player?",Jim 1273,"Hey everybody! Just want to welcome you all to the premiere of the real Dunder Mifflin commercial, the Michael Scott director’s cut. Hope you like it.",Jim 1274,"Michael is on a mission to prove that he’s creative. Which I think is odd, because Michael actually might be the most creative person I’ve ever known. Every day, Michael says and thinks things that no one has ever said or thought before.",Jim 1275,"So the deal was, Dwight doesn’t blow anything up, and I wear a costume. And a moustache.",Jim 1276,"When Michael plays the hypothetical game, I always say yes.",Jim 1277,And I am always busy.,Jim 1278,"There are thirteen people working in this office, so thirteen times a year Michael gets a cake and balloons, and some sort of joke gift and makes a toast. There are two types of toasts. One is a joke about how old you are.",Jim 1279,"And the other is something inappropriate. Or horrible. Or both. What else? He only sings the high harmony to “Happy Birthday.” And he’s a very big believer in surprise parties. Maybe even, arguably, possibly to a fault.",Jim 1280,"So… I think, yeah, I think getting these out of the way might be productive.",Jim 1281,"Toby’s great. He’s great, but sometimes he can be a little bit much. I don’t see the harm in that. Well, it’s a cake Toby, so, c’mon.",Jim 1282,"Yup, Phyllis called me Michael. And I will always and forever be haunted by that fact.",Jim 1283,"Michael has asked Pam and me to dinner at least 9 times. And every time we’ve been able to get out of it. But I’ve got to give him credit, he got me. Because I’m starting to suspect that there was no assignment from corporate.",Jim 1284,Michael and Jan seem to be playing their own separate game and it’s called ‘Let’s see how uncomfortable we can make our guests’ and they’re both winning. So I’m going to make a run for it.,Jim 1285,I am not kidding. Got it a week after we started dating.,Jim 1286,"You know what? If we all stayed a couple of hours late tonight without Michael distracting us, we wouldn’t have to come in at all tomorrow.",Jim 1287,"So I caught everyone before they left and I told them my idea, and they loved it. Because this is a group that respects good ideas… the one time a year they hear one.",Jim 1288,"Today, I am meeting a potential client on the golf course, because Ryan put me on probation. You remember Ryan, he was the temp here. Yeah. And uh, it is not a good time for me to lose my job. Since I have some pretty big long term plans in my personal life with Pam, that I’d like her parents to be psyched about. So I am about to do something very bold at this job that I’ve never done before. Try.",Jim 1289,So I guess I’ll just… work on my short game.,Jim 1290,"You know it’s a tough thing, seeing a grown man take six shots to get out of a sand trap but, I had to give Phil credit for not quitting. Which is what I told him. I also told him I don’t quit either, and I’d call him every single day until he gave me his business. Which he then did, after …fifteen minutes of me blocking his car. So I am now his paper supplier! And I shot a 102 today, so I’m feeling pretty good.",Jim 1291,"If your client likes Italian food, you bring him to Cugino’s. And if your client likes a little action, you bring him a gambler. And if your client hates Cornell, you bring him Andy.",Jim 1292,"Dwight left his cell phone on his desk. So, naturally, I paired it to my headset.",Jim 1293,"Oh, and I forwarded his desk phone to mine.",Jim 1294,I’m going to propose tonight. Holy crap!,Jim 1295,"Hey, Ryan, it’s Jim. Look man, I don’t know what’s gotten into you lately, but you know what? I really don’t care, because you’re trying to get rid of me. And I bet you don’t think I care enough about this job to actually fight back, but you’re wrong, because I do, and I will. So you can keep trying to push me out of this place, but guess what? I’m not going anywhere.",Jim 1296,"I’ve always gotten along well with Toby. Uh, we’re friends. But I don’t think we’ll stay in touch necessarily. I think I’ll probably get updates on him from Pam.",Jim 1297,"Is Ryan gonna fire me? I don’t know. I know that I’ve done everything I can, and I just brought in a huge sale, and… am I insane, or was this kid a temp two years ago? Because in the three years that he’s been here, I think all he’s ever done is start a fire and grow a beard. And it’s not even a good beard.",Jim 1298,"Okay, what’s going on?",Jim 1299,"Why haven’t I proposed yet? Uh, actually Pam and I talked about it. And we just decided that, um — well, we didn’t want to spend first three months of our engagement apart. And Pam’s always said she doesn’t want a long engagement. Something in her past, I guess. I’m not really sure of the whole story, but something about a guy who used to work here…",Jim 1300,"I can’t believe I’m saying this, but Michael is actually killing it with Holly. And I think I know why. It’s because Holly is kind of a major dork.",Jim 1301,"I don’t really know Ronnie. But I have a feeling I will get to know her very well over the next few years, and eventually declare my love for her.",Jim 1302,"When Michael told us that Jan was pregnant, he led us to believe that he was the father. By telling us that he was the father.",Jim 1303,Some girl came into Pam’s room crying about her roommate stealing her soy milk. So I’m in here waiting it out.,Jim 1304,"Probably the weirdest thing about Pam being gone would be lunch… actually. But um, it will force me to become acquaintances with people I consider… coworkers.",Jim 1305,Summers going great. Just spent two hours listening to Michael Clump. I have a weird pain in my left side that I’m convinced is an ulcer. My girlfriend lives in New York and I haven’t seen her in 10 days. How’s your summer?,Jim 1306,...,Jim 1307,"When Michael told us that Jan was pregnant, he led us all to believe that he was the father… by telling us he was the father. But then we got this e-mail from Jan. “Hi, everyone! Jan here, writing to share some wonderful news and to quash a rumor. First, the great news – I am expecting. The beautiful baby inside me will be ready to meet the world this fall just a few months before the launch of the new Serenity by Jan line . Anyway, I also wanted to clarify that the father is not anyone that you or I have ever met. Remember, no matter how excited someone is about my baby, it does not make them the father. Best, Jan. P.S. Hope to ship you something soon.”",Jim 1308,"He has not stopped working for a second. At 12:45 he sneezed while keeping his eyes open, which I always thought was impossible. At 1:32 he peed, and I know that because he did it in an open soda bottle under the desk while filling out expense reports. And on the flip side, I have been so busy watching him that I haven’t even started work. It’s exhausting, being this vigilant. I’ll probably have to go home early today.",Jim 1309,"Jan is about to have a baby with a sperm donor. And Michael is preparing for the birth of a watermelon with Dwight. Now, this baby will be related to Michael through delusion.",Jim 1310,I am going to see Pam. Because I feel like I should.,Jim 1311,No. you know what? No. Because… I’m not that guy. And we are not that couple.,Jim 1312,"I am off to New York. My brother Pete from Boston, and my brother Tom from New Jersey are taking Pam and I out for lunch, to celebrate the engagement. Or maybe to beat me up. I can never tell with those two.",Jim 1313,...,Jim 1314,"Dwight and I are both writing letters to our clients. I’m just sending a quick note to say how much I appreciate their business, and he is writing notarized letters to inform them them that lying on customer reviews is a prosecutable form of fraud and defamation. It’s just… different styles.",Jim 1315,Pam comes back from New York next week and everyone here has just been so excited for me. And involved. And intrusive. And weird.,Jim 1316,"Today’s a big day. Today’s the day that I show Pam the house that I bought for us. Without telling her. But it’s my parent’s house, the house I grew up in and yeah, I bought it kind of impulsively. I mean, the price was good and I was helping out my mom. It’s got shag carpets. I mean you can’t blame my parents it was the 70’s. And why would you want to buy ugly wood from trees when you can have paneling? And a painting of some creepy clowns that is apparently crucial to the structural integrity of the building. She’s gonna love it. Right?",Jim 1317,"Ever since Pam and I started dating, I just feel weird asking her to make copies for me. So, I make my own copies. And that copier sucks. Let me tell you, I-But you know what? Pam and I don’t have to agree on everything.",Jim 1318,Whew.,Jim 1319,"Andy still doesn’t know that Angela’s having an affair with Dwight. And it’s been seventeen days. I mean, eventually he’ll figure it out, when their kids have giant heads and beet-stained teeth. But right now it’s just… awkward.",Jim 1320,"So, I either get more involved, or I take a sick day… leaving Dwight in charge. Oh God.",Jim 1321,"I got 500 feet of red wire at a flea market up by Dunmore High School. 20 bucks for the whole spool. Crazy, what a deal. Oh he’ll be fine. I made it up there.",Jim 1322,What’s going on?,Jim 1323,"Uh, no one really knows, but Pam’s parents are going through a little bit of a rough patch in their marriage.",Jim 1324,"Fifty percent of marriages end in divorce, so… it was her parents or my parents…",Jim 1325,I forgot if there was an “e” between the “l” and the “y.” I still don’t know.,Jim 1326,"About a week ago, Michael gave his 2-week notice.

I should have known that he can do just as much damage in the dark.,Jim 1341,"I’ve been studying Michael for years, and I’ve condensed what I’ve learned into this chart– How Michael spends his time.

Anyway, I have a thing stuck in my shoe.",Pam 1507,"Hey, I have a chance to sneak out of here early, and I’m not messing this up, so I’ll see you tomorrow.",Pam 1508,"Calling from my cell phone. I don’t know if you guys figured out who did that to Michael’s carpet yet, but I have a theory that involves an inter-departmental conspiracy. Everybody in the office. We need to talk.",Pam 1509,Today’s a ‘women in the workplace’ thing. Jan’s coming in from Corporate to talk to all the women about… um… I don’t really know what. But Michael’s not allowed in. She said that about five times.,Pam 1510,I don’t know how I fit in with these women. Here. Or with Jan. Um… I mean we get along great. Fine. Um… I guess the person I have the most in common with is…,Pam 1511,Dreams are just that. They’re dreams. They help get you through the day. Like the thing about the terrace. It’s nice but… um… I don’t know. It was just something I read in this book when I was twelve. The girl in the book has a terrace outside of her bedroom and she planted flowers on it and I just loved that. Just always kind of stuck with me.,Pam 1512,"It’s impractical. I’m not going to try to get a house like that. Um… they don’t even make houses like that in Scranton. So, I’m never going to… .",Pam 1513,"Roy and I are saving for the wedding, so I made him promise not to get me anything too big.",Pam 1514,Michael’s got a few tricks for Valentine’s Day. He found a place where you can get 12 plastic roses for $10 and he’s got a great line. “Me so thorny.”,Pam 1515,I have a ton of stuff to do for the wedding. And I have to do it in the office. And that can be kind of awkward. Um… just because people can get all weird about wedding stuff. Then… I just… I don’t want to offend… Angela… or someone.,Pam 1516,I only have one goal today. To make one kid like me. Just one.,Pam 1517,"If I knew I had a week to live, I would… probably go to Europe. And South America. And the Grand Canyon. And… I would want to see the Pacific Ocean. …It would be a pretty busy week.",Pam 1518,Michael’s birthday was actually pretty cool. It was a good day. I don’t know… It was a good day.,Pam 1519,Wow! He really pulled out the big guns. Fake crying. Did not expect that.,Pam 1520,"What? Did you want to tell me something? You look like you want to tell me something.

Jim, you can tell me anything.",Pam 1521,"There are a few people I decided not to invite, and that might make things kind of awkward but … it’s my wedding. And I don’t want anyone there who has called me a hussy.",Pam 1522,I have this kind of big secret about Angela. And I’ve been really nice to her… and I haven’t told anyone. And what the hell?!,Pam 1523,I’m pretty happy these days. I’m getting married soon and I’m getting along with everybody at work.,Pam 1524,Jim is great. Being with him just takes away all the stress of planning my wedding.,Pam 1525,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 1526,"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. I have to go. I will. Listen, Jim…",Pam 1527,"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.",Pam 1528,"Yeah, I didn’t go through with the wedding. I got cold feet, a few days before. And I can’t really explain it. I just had to get out of that relationship. We still had to pay for all the food. So we froze it. But I’m, I’m doing well. I have my own apartment. I’m taking art classes. And I have lunch for the next five weeks.",Pam 1529,What do I think? I think everybody should stay out of everybody’s personal business!,Pam 1530,"Yes, I have a date. He’s a cartoonist for the local paper, which is really neat, because I like to draw too. I’m kind of nervous. I haven’t been on a first date in nine years… probably shouldn’t broadcast that.",Pam 1531,"I went on a date. It wasn’t a love connection, um… I think when I like someone again, I’ll just kinda know.",Pam 1532,"Movie Monday started with training videos, but we went through those pretty fast.

Soooo, I felt like I wanted some new clothes.

If Dwight doesn’t work out, maybe that could be manager.",Pam 1536,"Well, I remember why I dress the way I do at work. But I’m gonna keep the clothes. I mean, it’ll be cool to just have some after work clothes that aren’t pajamas.",Pam 1537,"I may have a few weeks ago faked a call from Jan in order to get out of a synopsis of, I think it was, Navy: NCIS. Since then, Michael’s been suspicious.",Pam 1538,Did I wake up this morning thinking I’d be throwing together a bird funeral? You never can tell what your day here is gonna turn into.,Pam 1539,"Michael once told me that Home Alone is the saddest movie ever. When I asked him why, he said, “Because the whole family forgets the kid at home. There is nothing funny about that.”",Pam 1540,"It’s weird. Jan use to treat Michael like he was a ten year old, but lately it’s like he’s five.",Pam 1541,Once a year they bring in a little cart and they give away free pretzels. It’s really not a big deal. To some people it is.,Pam 1542,"Dunder Mifflin, this is Pam. Oh, hi Jan. He’s, uh, on a sales call. No message? Bye, Jan.",Pam 1543,It’s like mommy and daddy are fighting. Except mommy outranks daddy and mommy is way scarier.,Pam 1544,"Dwight is taking Ryan on a sales call today. So if we find Ryan’s body in a heavily-wooded area tomorrow, I owe Jim $30. It’s an old bet, but a deal’s a deal.",Pam 1545,Very official.,Pam 1546,"I decided to come. Uh… I feel a little under-dressed… but at least I’m not dressed like a slutty cheerleader, right? Is that mean?",Pam 1547,"It’s a blessing in disguise. Actually, not even in disguise. Sometimes at home, I answer the phone, “Dunder-Mifflin, this is Pam.” So, maybe that’ll stop now.",Pam 1548,"Maybe this is good. Finding another job is a pain. There’s another annoying boss, another desk, I’d have to learn everything all over again. So, there are reasons to stay.",Pam 1549,"Yes! I’m in a good mood today! I’m excited to meet all the new people and to see my old friend again, definitely. That’s always a thing that makes people happy… to have an old friend back.",Pam 1550,"The day’s going fine. It’s been a little chaotic but it’s fine. It’s great! A lot of distractions. But, it’s good.",Pam 1551,Wow. That was… wow.,Pam 1552,"I feel like I’ve been kinda cold to Karen and there’s no real reason for it. I mean it’s not like she’s ever done anything to me. So, I think I probably shouldn’t be cold to her.",Pam 1553,"No, I didn’t mind helping Jim with his problem. That’s what friends do. I help Phyllis all the time. Just yesterday, I untangled a piece of tape from her hair. So, yeah.",Pam 1554,"Michael sends me a postcard from every vacation he goes on. Atlantic City, he wishes I was here.

I don’t know how far away he thought he was, because he put $10 worth of stamps on this.",Pam 1555,Michael and Jan together in Jamaica.

It’s actually a success compared to Disco Audit ’05.",Pam 1557,"Something’s up with Jim and Karen. Not that I’ve been eavesdropping. It’s not really any of my business, but I’ve gotten pretty good at reading the back of Jim’s neck.",Pam 1558,"Phyllis… ended up using the exact same invitations as Roy and me. So it was kind of like being invited to my own wedding. And I was like ‘Wait, thought I called that off’.",Pam 1559,"Also, Pam and Roy.",Pam 1560,I’m really happy to be back with Roy. I think it shows maturity. Maturity and dignity. … Is that braggy? I don’t mean it to be braggy.,Pam 1561,"I have decided that I’m going to be more honest. I’m going to tell people what I want. Directly. So, look out world, cause ol’ Pammy is getting what she wants. And, don’t call me Pammy.",Pam 1562,"I really don’t want to talk about it.

I wish someone had flashed me when I was with Roy. Because that would have been the ass-kicking of the year. Especially if it had been Jim. He would not have wanted me to have seen Jim’s… Whoo, I am… I am saying a lot of things.",Pam 1569,I’m kind of in-between boyfriends right now. So I don’t need anything sexy. But I do need some new hand towels. I figure I can cut up this robe.,Pam 1570,"You know, I changed a tire today. All by myself. This bathrobe’s already coming in handy. Coming!",Pam 1571,"It is totally inappropriate, but on the other hand…",Pam 1572,"About 40 times a year, Michael gets really sick, but has no symptoms.

Ahhhh…",Pam 1575,"Sometimes Michael gets nostalgic and he talks about the classic gang. That’s Michael, me, Jim, Dwight, Angela, Kevin, Oscar, Stanley, Phyllis, Creed, Meredith, Kelly and Ryan. We’re a regular Ocean’s Eleven.",Pam 1576,"After I had my little outburst at the beach, Jim was really nice about it. He just basically said that he missed my friendship too and I would always mean a lot to him and I understand where he’s coming from. For the record, I am not embarassed at all. It needed to be said, and I said it, and it only took me three years to summons the courage, so thank you.",Pam 1577,"No, it’s fine. I’m sure it must have been weird for Jim when Roy and I were joking around… that",Pam 1578,"I’m happy for him. I hope he gets the job. I really just want him to be happy. And I know that sounds cliche. And I know saying it sounds cliche, sounds cliche… Maybe I’m being cliche. I don’t care. Cause I am what I am. That’s Popeye.",Pam 1579,"I learned from Jim, if Dwight ever asks you to accept something secret… you reply, “Absolutely, I do.”",Pam 1580,I literally cannot wait to see what Dwight has planned. And I wish Jim were here.,Pam 1581,"No, I don’t know what the future holds, but… I’m optimistic. And, uh, I had fun goofing around with Dwight today. Jim and I… are just… too similar.

I saw it!",Pam 1587,Dwight mercy killed Angela’s cat. It’s very complicated. It’s caused a lot of unpleasantness between Dwight and Angela.

Angela.",Pam 1594,Dwight.,Pam 1595,Jim’s just really passionate about Italian food.,Pam 1596,"I worked until about 2:45 AM.

She’s really sweet and… whatever, I just can’t take Michael like this.",Pam 1606,"There is a master key and a spare key for the office. Dwight has them both.

Um, well, here, I’ll show you. Unfocus your lens. A lot. I’m 20/400. You got it? Okay, I’m gonna spend the rest of the day like this.

No. No they must have taken it down. Never mind.",Pam 1612,"I wouldn’t go if things weren’t so solid with Jim. And down the road, if we have a family, I couldn’t go then either.

It’s actually a great idea and I can’t believe it didn’t exist before. And I know Ryan’s kind of a sketchy guy, but hey, I married Jim. I’ve done my part for the nice guy. Now I want a bedroom set.",Pam 1693,"I’m the office administrator now, which means I’m basically being paid to be head of the party planning committee. The first thing I did as head… I shut it down. At its best it was a toxic political club used to make others feel miserable and left out. At its best it planned parties.",Pam 1694,"I’ve been working forever on Jim’s present. He always gives me the best Christmas gifts. He’ll take a memory or a private joke, and he’ll create something totally unique. I love them. So this year I made him something. A comic book. It stars Jimmy Halpert, a mild-mannered paper Salesman who, while riding his bike through the forest, is bitten by a radioactive bear, becomes ‘bear man’. Wreaks havoc on the office. It’s really good.",Pam 1695,"Jada, Darryl, I’m so glad I found you guys. A grinch stole the star from on top of the Christmas tree and is hiding it in the warehouse somewhere. You want to go help me find him?",Pam 1696,"I recently met Sue, the office administrator at Vance Refrigeration. She has this awesome wall full of fun initiatives and morale boosters and stuff. Sue just goes for it, she’s awesome.",Pam 1697,Lesson learned.,Pam 1698,"I got Erin a new computer, because the one at reception sucked. I should know. And I don’t wanna say the other one was old, but its I.P. number is one! Right?",Pam 1699,I’m full on corrupt!,Pam 1700,"Dunder Mifflin is having our first own garage sale. Like many Americans, we realized we had a lot of things that we really didn’t need. And 10 cents of every dollar is going into the party fund so we can throw parties for ourselves.",Pam 1701,...,Pam 1702,"No he wasn’t sad. He was full of hope.

I mean, maybe it’s stupid. No. It’s wonderful. I’m gonna frame it. I can always unframe it.",Pam 1708,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. Still don’t know the words. Tah wa Ta way hm hm home and home and home.,Pam 1709,I’m training a temp to be my replacement while I’m on maternity leave. Oh I should’ve mentioned I’m pregnant. You probably didn’t notice because it’s impossible to tell I’m so small. But yeah I’m pregnant. Oh come on!,Pam 1710,"The thing about pregnancy is people treat you differently. Like you’re a kid almost. They lose all sense of boundaries. They start acting weird, telling you things that clearly aren’t true. I know it sounds nuts, but I think Dwight is the only one who’s telling me the truth.",Pam 1711,Why was he making her laugh so much?,Pam 1712,"Yeah, its nuts. But I don’t know what else to do.",Pam 1713,"I know it’s wrong to fake going into labor just to get out of things, but sometimes it’s necessary.",Pam 1714,: I’m going into labor!,Pam 1715,"At this point, when you’re this pregnant, it’s kind of like senior spring. The other day I spit my gum out on the carpet.",Pam 1716,"There’s this balloon that has been floating in the rafters of the warehouse for, like, ever. And, okay, it’s not — it doesn’t sound cool. You just have to see it.",Pam 1717,"Well, I guess it doesn’t look that cool either. But, it’s been up there a long time, so it’s become a pretty big deal.",Pam 1718,"I’m sorry, we’re throwing a party for someone because they’re being horrible?",Pam 1719,I’m still not sure why this woman is even here.,Pam 1720,"I am not going to let Kelly throw her life away on Ryan. And it has nothing to do with access to my pediatrician. Why you would even ask or were going to ask, because I- I felt like that question was coming.",Pam 1721,"I’ve been through several rounds of development with the team and here’s where we stand with the chore wheel. We’ve got prizes! Ten bucks, candy bar, manager for an hour but, there are also penalties. Like, no internet, Stanley gets your lunch. The one thing that is not on the chore wheel is chores. But they were right; it’s more fun this way.",Pam 1722,The tiny wheel actually does have chores. It’s so cute no one seems to mind.,Pam 1723,Toilets!,Pam 1724,I think maybe there actually is something I don’t know about Jim.,Pam 1725,Jim’s at the dentist this morning.

And—,Pam 1728,I still can’t believe he didn’t tell me.,Pam 1729,"Ten years ago, I didn’t care if Dwight got married or died a beet-farming bachelor. But having kids makes you so soft. I used to watch Pulp Fiction and laugh, and now I’m like, that poor gimp is somebody’s child.",Pam 1730,"Jan used to be one of my superiors, and she is one of the most erratic and terrifying people I have ever met.",Pam 1731,"Jim and I are pretty sure she had an affair with her ex-assistant Hunter. He was 17. But she looks great. If she asks, will you tell her I said that?",Pam 1732,"Jim’s been spending a few days a week in Philly and I’m not gonna lie, it’s been challenging. Yesterday, things took a turn for the worse. I found out Cece has lice. So I was up all night disinfecting every sheet, towel, toy, item of clothing in the entire house. I’m exhausted. But don’t tell Jim. He has a huge meeting today, under a lot of pressure and he’s doing it all for the family.",Pam 1733,"I’m sure she’s just confused. People scratch their heads when they’re confused. Not always like an ape, the way Meredith just did, but it happens.",Pam 1734,"Maybe it was Meredith. Maybe she brought in lice that are totally different than the lice that i got from Cece. So let’s not jump to the simplest conclusion that she got her lice from me. That is how wars get started. Fine, I’ll tell her it was me.",Pam 1735,"I am going to tell her, but now is clearly not the time. I will buy her a wig, we’ll have a few laughs. There’s a right way to do this.",Pam 1736,"No, I’m not upset. I’m really excited for Darryl… Maybe I’m a little disappointed that we’ll be losing him.",Pam 1737,"I’ve really been putting in the hours on this mural. And my boss is totally OK with it, because he’s in the Bahamas and has no clue what anybody is doing. I’m usually very self-critical. I hate what I paint. But, I don’t know, this time I feel like it’s, um, it’s really coming together… Oh my god! Wha? You’ve gotta be kidding me! What it… are those… are those butts? Huh? No way. No way!",Pam 1738,"Attention, everyone. Can I have your attention, please? Yeah, I don’t know everybody’s name down here, but whoever did this will you please raise your hand. Hello? This is not over. OK? I will stay up here all day if I have to. Is that what you want? Yeah, I will also come down if I want to. It’s my choice.",Pam 1739,"I don’t demand justice often. I’m not like Angela, who calls a lawyer every time someone watches a YouTube video of animals doing it. But, someone should get fired over this, right? Val’s no help. Andy’s gone. Jim’s out. I just feel like I’m on my own here. I mean, OK, not completely on my own. But, in terms of people who can do something. Thank you, Brian.",Pam 1740,"Oh that’s mine! Um, I’ll just, I’ll get it out of the way for you.",Pam 1741,"Jim set up a job interview for me today in Philly. It’s um, with a real estate company, which is a great fit for me because I live in a house and I know what a bathroom is. I’m sorry, I am just very nervous because honestly this is all moving a lot faster than I expected. And, and because my resume can fit on a post-it note.",Pam 1742,Oh my god. He’s Michael Scott.,Pam 1743,"I spent 10 years as a receptionist, to Michael Scott. And I have kids now. And I just, I can’t.",Pam 1744,"He took this job in Philly without telling me.

But I don’t want him to do it anymore, and I don’t want to give him an ultimatum, but I am not moving our family to Philly.",Pam 1747,I wish we’d started this exercise six months ago. My heart just feels so… blocked up.,Pam 1748,"When Jim decided to come back to Scranton full-time, I was relieved, but I also feel a little guilty. I mean, he’s giving up this big thing for me. But he seems happy. I mean, he’s certainly been goofing around a lot. I love goofy Jim.",Pam
