The Office running thread

Erin: "I have a big box."

Oscar: "You don't know what you're saying."

 

Is it just me, or does she get more attractive as time goes by?

 

I was on that train a couple of episodes back.

 

Personally, I enjoyed the episode.

And, as someone who was recently laid off after a corporate buyout (damn you Pfizer!), I can totally relate to Wallace's "Well, I have a doctor's appointment....next Thursday." And his wife asking what he'd done that day with a trace of hopefulness and a twinge of annoyance. "Nothing." Spot on.

 

My lingering question is, where exactly does Wallace live?

Before his firing, he was Dunder Mifflin's CFO, and that presumably means he lives in the NYC area. Roughly a 2-hour drive from Scranton to New York. I'm finding it rather difficult to see how Michael could show up for work at Dunder Mifflin Sabre, stick around long enough to be displeased by his new higher-ups, drive to Wallace's house, kick back with a Yuengling in the hot tub and make it back to the office (with the OJ in tow) by the end of the business day.

 

Looks like he lives in the suburbs, not in NYC...he could get to upscale NJ neighborhoods in 90 minutes (if he was really hustling). If Michael left at 1030, got there around noon, spent a couple hours, he could be back in plenty of time.

 

I laughed at "Dunder Mifflin is a part of Sob-ray".

 

I thought Oscar's box comment during the opening was kinda funny, but that was about it.

 

The ending "Suck it" jam with Wallace and his kid was the funniest part of the episode.

 

I enjoyed Pam's reaction after Michael caught the scissors.

 

I liked when Andy was trying so hard to hint that he wanted Erin to ask him out.

 

Absolutely loved that, and seeing what became of Wallace after Dunder Mifflin.
