    Another bland episode. I didn't like this plot at all.

    The birth of Pimento

    So many quotably lines and funny moments between jake and pimento as well as Boyle. All in all, one of the funniest episodes. Even though the writers stole the "macguffin" meta joke from Community.

    • Trivia
      The organization that Holt submits a grant request for funds to improve the office is the M. C. Guffin Foundation. In film parlance, a "MacGuffin" is a plot device in the form of some goal, desired object, or another motivator that the protagonist pursues, often with little or no narrative explanation. Therefore, the M. C. Guffin Foundation is a literal MacGuffin.
    • Goofs
      Between the end of Season 1 and the beginning of Season 2, Jake goes undercover for 6 months, but in 3.17 Holt and Jake talk about how he was undercover for 63 days, which is only about 2 months.
