    Who cares what the other guy says

    This show is awesome. This episode showed how well written the characters Michael Scott and Dwight Schrute are. They both face 2 situations that reveal another side of them that no one expected, and it's just great writing. There are also a lot of inside jokes for this one so might be a bit hard to understand but generally you will have a good time.

    Awesome!!!

    I love the Office so much after this episode. It was always funny and lots of fun to watch, but this really moved it up on my list of favorite shows ever! I love Michael, Dwight, Pam, Jim, and everyone else. Who would have thought that the best show of all time would be about a group of people working all day!

    One of the greatest episodes so far. This season compared to first one is much more interesting and funny to watch, they've learnt all their mistakes and now they're dominating. I've really enjoyed watching it.

    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Paul Lieberstein (Toby) very briefly broke character. In the scene in which Steve Carrell (Michael) is stuck in the men's room and Toby is talking to him, the exasperation sounds made by Michael was enough for Lieberstein to laugh to the point he walked out of shot.
    • Goofs
      Billy Merchant says someone took the handicapped parking spot, and the camera pans to Michael making an uncomfortable face, implying that Michael was the one who took the handicapped parking spot. However, it is indicated that Dwight picked up Michael from his house to bring him to the office. Also, Michael later on says he is unable to drive, and that Jim has to drive.

      Dwight Schrute: [delusional] You can't fire me. I don't work in this van.
