1. Everybody, everybody, listen up.
I need your ideas now.
Copy !req
2. Ideas, please, right now.
Go, go! Come on!
Copy !req
3. Michael, we don't know
what you're talking about.
Copy !req
4. Wet cement outside.
It's drying fast.
Copy !req
5. Come on, this is a lifelong dream.
What do I write? What do I write?
Copy !req
6. Michael, you could
put your initials in it.
Copy !req
7. M.G.S. No.
Copy !req
8. Some idiot named Mark Greg Schputnick
will claim credit for it. I don't...
Copy !req
9. That is true. Once in a
lifetime opportunity, people.
Copy !req
10. - Come on!
- Well...
Copy !req
11. Here we go! Yes?
Copy !req
12. When I was a little girl...
Copy !req
13. Okay.
Copy !req
14. Okay, do it! Come on,
great! Let's hear it!
Copy !req
15. We found some wet cement...
Copy !req
16. It's drying, it's drying... in
the park in our neighborhood...
Copy !req
17. All right, come on!
Copy !req
18. Come on, Phyllis!
What did we write?
Copy !req
19. Oh! Come on!
Copy !req
20. Here it is. You draw a picture.
No!
Copy !req
21. 'Cause that says so
much more than words.
Copy !req
22. No, no!
Copy !req
23. Come on, give me something good!
Copy !req
24. Okay, I was watching E!
Copy !req
25. And I saw Will Smith outside
the Chinese Theater,
Copy !req
26. and, oh, my God,
he looked so good.
Copy !req
27. Pam, translate.
Copy !req
28. She's talking about the handprints
that celebrities make in the cement.
Copy !req
29. I love it!
Copy !req
30. If you were a real star,
you'd put your face in it.
Copy !req
31. I love it more!
Copy !req
32. Michael, that
doesn't seem safe...
Copy !req
33. I love it!
Copy !req
34. - Come on, let's go!
- Come on!
Copy !req
35. We are here today not to
immortalize a man, but an idea.
Copy !req
36. Maybe the idea of a man.
Copy !req
37. Hurry, please.
Copy !req
38. Greatness is only skin
deep, some people say.
Copy !req
39. Can you breathe?
Well, that's not true.
Copy !req
40. Other people believe
it's deep down inside.
Copy !req
41. Hold your breath.
Copy !req
42. And in this case,
that's also not true.
Copy !req
43. Ready? And...
Copy !req
44. Go!
Copy !req
45. Force it in as deep as you can.
Copy !req
46. That's what she said.
Copy !req
47. Today's a very special day for me. And
it's really not about me.
Copy !req
48. It's about my grandkids.
It's about my great-grandkids.
Copy !req
49. I can come back here
when I'm 100,
Copy !req
50. and I can find that
piece of cement and say,
Copy !req
51. "That's me. Look, kids. Your
daddy left that face hole."
Copy !req
52. I don't know.
It's a good feeling.
Copy !req
53. Okay.
Copy !req
54. Adjective.
Copy !req
55. "Tall."
No, no, "Nice."
Copy !req
56. Good one. Okay.
You ready?
Copy !req
57. Mmm-hmm.
Copy !req
58. "The tall man entered
the nice building,
Copy !req
59. "to visit a very nice man.
Copy !req
60. "'Sit down, Mr. Smith. Can I
interest you in any good cat food?"'
Copy !req
61. It's a man eating cat food!
Copy !req
62. What about
a cat eating man food?
Copy !req
63. Andy and Angela seem very happy.
Copy !req
64. I hope nothing horrible
ever happens to them.
Copy !req
65. Yeah, I slept over at
a friend's house, and...
Copy !req
66. I forgot my contact solution, so I
had to wear my back-up glasses.
Copy !req
67. Shut up.
Copy !req
68. All right, everybody.
Copy !req
69. Oh, my God. Pam, those
make you look so ugly.
Copy !req
70. Pam, in order to get hotter,
you take glasses off.
Copy !req
71. You're moving in
the wrong direction.
Copy !req
72. I don't have my contacts...
Copy !req
73. I can't even hear you.
Copy !req
74. It's just noise coming out
of an ugly scientist.
Copy !req
75. Everybody, we're gonna have a
little brainstorming session
Copy !req
76. in the conference room.
Copy !req
77. Energize.
Copy !req
78. You know what would energize me?
Copy !req
79. If you, Pamela Morgan Beesly...
Copy !req
80. Don't you, don't you...
Copy !req
81. If you propose to me during a
Michael meeting, I will say no.
Copy !req
82. Well, it's too late,
because I'm proposing
Copy !req
83. that you get me a cup of coffee,
which would energize me greatly
Copy !req
84. and make me the happiest
man in the world.
Copy !req
85. Everybody, so how are we going
to energize our office?
Copy !req
86. I mean, I haven't done
anything since Christmas.
Copy !req
87. Pam clearly has
just given up trying.
Copy !req
88. So what we need to do is
we need to get things going.
Copy !req
89. We need to get percolating a little bit.
Anybody have any ideas what we could do?
Copy !req
90. Any suggestions?
Yes, Andy?
Copy !req
91. What if we changed our outgoing
answering machine message
Copy !req
92. so it just had a little more
zing and a little more pep?
Copy !req
93. Zing and pep. Those are the kind of
words we're looking for. Yes, Jim.
Copy !req
94. What about if we did an even
newer voice-mail message
Copy !req
95. that had even more zing and pep?
Copy !req
96. Now we're cooking, I like this.
Maybe a whole theme.
Copy !req
97. Like a rap... A rap rhyme.
An urban thing.
Copy !req
98. An urban... Yeah, Stanley, you
want to help us out with that?
Copy !req
99. Stanley!
Earth to Stanley.
Copy !req
100. Not me.
Copy !req
101. Yes, you. Come on, Stanley,
put your little game down
Copy !req
102. and join the group.
Copy !req
103. No.
Copy !req
104. Stanley, we're having...
Copy !req
105. Leave me alone, damn it.
Copy !req
106. We're having
a brainstorm session.
Copy !req
107. Did I stutter?
Copy !req
108. Good. This is good. I'm going
to grab a glass of water.
Copy !req
109. Can I talk to you a second?
Copy !req
110. What?
Copy !req
111. I really think that you need to address
what happened with Stanley this morning.
Copy !req
112. What are you blabbering about?
Nothing happened.
Copy !req
113. Well, you know, Stanley
was openly insubordinate.
Copy !req
114. That, in the conference room?
Copy !req
115. Yeah.
Copy !req
116. We were joshing
around, the two of us.
Copy !req
117. And he said,
"Did I stutter?"
Copy !req
118. And I said,
"What, dawg?"
Copy !req
119. It was joking, Toby, all right?
Copy !req
120. He didn't seem
like he was joking.
Copy !req
121. Well, you don't get it, because
Stanley is a beautiful,
Copy !req
122. sassy, powerful black man,
Copy !req
123. and you're you.
Copy !req
124. If you had any friends,
you would understand.
Copy !req
125. Friends joke with one another.
"Hey, you're poor."
Copy !req
126. "Well, hey, your mama's dead."
That's what friends do.
Copy !req
127. It's... You're so white.
Copy !req
128. All right. Well...
Copy !req
129. If you really believe
that Stanley was joking...
Copy !req
130. Mmm-hmm.
Copy !req
131. Why don't we go ask him now?
Copy !req
132. Okay, I will.
Copy !req
133. I'm not feeling very
well right now, though.
Copy !req
134. My stomach hurts, so I may
be going home early today.
Copy !req
135. You know, Michael, sometimes
my daughter's stomach hurts
Copy !req
136. when there's
a mean girl at school.
Copy !req
137. Well, sometimes my stomach hurts
when you come into my office.
Copy !req
138. So it's probably psychological.
Copy !req
139. You meet a lot of ladies driving an Xterra,
because you pull up to a stoplight
Copy !req
140. and look over, and there's an Xterra next
to you, they're always driven by chicks.
Copy !req
141. So there's your icebreaker.
Copy !req
142. Scratch!
Copy !req
143. That's a racing stripe.
Copy !req
144. Bumper's sagging.
Copy !req
145. Hmm. I doubt
that very much.
Copy !req
146. This car is crap. I will buy
it for next to nothing.
Copy !req
147. How next to?
Copy !req
148. Well, here are your options.
Copy !req
149. You can sell it for parts,
drive it off a cliff,
Copy !req
150. you can donate it to a person that you'd
like to see die in a car crash, or
Copy !req
151. you can sell it to me and I'll use
it as I would a wagon on my farm.
Copy !req
152. It will be towed by a donkey.
Copy !req
153. I have to pick one of those?
Yes.
Copy !req
154. Can you go over
those options again?
Copy !req
155. You know what?
Copy !req
156. You knock $1,500 off the price right
now and I will take it off your hands.
Copy !req
157. It's gotta be now.
Copy !req
158. Well, I had the
Blue Book value...
Copy !req
159. Seal the deal.
Let's do it.
Copy !req
160. Let's do this thing.
Three, two, one.
Copy !req
161. Can I think about it?
Copy !req
162. Five, four, three, two, now.
Copy !req
163. Let me think about it.
Copy !req
164. Now. Now.
Say it. Do it now.
Copy !req
165. Thinking about it.
Thinking.
Copy !req
166. Do it now! Do it.
Shake my hand.
Copy !req
167. You will sell me this car.
Shake my hand.
Copy !req
168. Yeah, all right!
Copy !req
169. What?
Copy !req
170. I see that you gave me that form
Copy !req
171. that I asked you to give me,
Stanley the manly.
Copy !req
172. So thank you for that. I
guess we are back to normal.
Copy !req
173. What are you talking about?
Copy !req
174. Well, you know, the thing that you
said earlier that you didn't mean.
Copy !req
175. And that I forgive you for. The
whole thing's silly, isn't it?
Copy !req
176. Friends don't need to apologize to
friends, as far as I'm concerned.
Copy !req
177. So we are cool.
Copy !req
178. I am not going
to apologize to you.
Copy !req
179. It's like I used
to tell my wife.
Copy !req
180. "I do not apologize unless I think I'm wrong,
and if you don't like it, you can leave."
Copy !req
181. And I say the same thing to my current
wife, and I'll say it to my next one, too.
Copy !req
182. Jim is in charge of Stanley
only in sales-related matters.
Copy !req
183. Hence the green line.
Green for money.
Copy !req
184. Sales, get it? There
is this yellow zigzag
Copy !req
185. that does give Ryan the authority
to discipline Stanley.
Copy !req
186. Great.
Copy !req
187. However, in so doing,
Copy !req
188. it zigs past your name, hence zagging
you and making you appear weak.
Copy !req
189. Thus the yellow color.
Yellow for cowardly.
Copy !req
190. What's the pink?
Copy !req
191. Menstrual cycles.
Copy !req
192. Okay.
Copy !req
193. Is there anybody up here, anybody
at all, that can deal with this
Copy !req
194. other than me...
You.
Copy !req
195. Well, there is the emergency
disaster mode for the org chart.
Copy !req
196. This gives me full authority over
every single person in the office.
Copy !req
197. I never said you could do that.
Copy !req
198. All you have to do is say it.
Copy !req
199. Okay, I'll think about it.
Copy !req
200. Say it. Just do it.
Copy !req
201. Don't think, say it. Do it.
Five, four, three, two...
Copy !req
202. Do it. Give me
control, Michael.
Copy !req
203. I promise to give authority back
to you when this crisis is over.
Copy !req
204. Do it, Michael.
Copy !req
205. Do it. Hey.
Copy !req
206. This office needs a strongman.
Copy !req
207. Say it.
Copy !req
208. No.
So...
Copy !req
209. All right, well then, you're gonna
have to deal with this yourself.
Copy !req
210. Hey, Pam. I really
like your glasses.
Copy !req
211. Oh, thanks.
Copy !req
212. All the girlfriends that I've
ever had have worn glasses.
Copy !req
213. Oh, okay.
Copy !req
214. Yeah, it's kind of a
turn-on for me, actually.
Copy !req
215. I should probably get back to...
Copy !req
216. Like librarians.
Copy !req
217. Entering the...
Copy !req
218. Could you just say,
Copy !req
219. "These are due back Thursday"?
Copy !req
220. No.
Copy !req
221. Dunder Mifflin. This is Pam.
Okay, go ahead.
Copy !req
222. A lot of jazz cats are blind,
Copy !req
223. but they can play the piano
like nobody's business.
Copy !req
224. I'd like to put the piano in front of Pam
without her glasses and see what happens.
Copy !req
225. I'd also like to
see her topless.
Copy !req
226. Mike.
Hey.
Copy !req
227. I'm very busy here, man.
Darryl...
Copy !req
228. Have you ever been in a gang?
Copy !req
229. Why?
Copy !req
230. It's an advice question, and
Copy !req
231. if you don't want to talk about it,
I completely understand. It's...
Copy !req
232. No, no, no. I know it's
very, very personal.
Copy !req
233. No...
Copy !req
234. I have.
Copy !req
235. I knew it. Okay.
Copy !req
236. Who are we talking about here?
Copy !req
237. Crips, Bloods?
Both.
Copy !req
238. God.
Copy !req
239. Yeah, them and the Latin Kings.
Copy !req
240. The Warriors, Newsies.
Okay.
Copy !req
241. Okay, so dig this.
Copy !req
242. You're on the street and one
of your gang disses you.
Copy !req
243. Oh, my goodness.
Yeah, right.
Copy !req
244. So what do you do to
get him to make it right?
Copy !req
245. Well, see, in the gang world, we use
something called "Fluffy fingers."
Copy !req
246. What is that?
Copy !req
247. That's where if somebody
really gets in your face,
Copy !req
248. you know, you just
start tickling them.
Copy !req
249. Really?
Yeah.
Copy !req
250. And he starts tickling you.
Copy !req
251. You know, pretty soon
you're laughing and hugging.
Copy !req
252. Before you know it, you've
forgotten the whole thing.
Copy !req
253. Y'all can just go to church
together and get an ice cream cone.
Copy !req
254. I would have never thought that
Copy !req
255. gangs would be
tickling each other.
Copy !req
256. Well, it's effective.
Copy !req
257. I think it's self-explanatory. Hey, Jim!
Come here for a second.
Copy !req
258. Can you answer me something
as a true Eagles fan?
Copy !req
259. Oh, boy.
Copy !req
260. How do you live with
a franchise this bad?
Copy !req
261. On a wing and a prayer, mostly.
Copy !req
262. All right, whatever you say.
Copy !req
263. Listen, while I have
you here with Toby,
Copy !req
264. I need to give you a formal warning
about your job performance.
Copy !req
265. A formal warning?
Copy !req
266. It's actually not a joke. I know
how you spend your time here.
Copy !req
267. I know how little you
care about your job.
Copy !req
268. And honestly, if you spent
as much time selling
Copy !req
269. as you do goofing around with Dwight
and hanging out at reception,
Copy !req
270. we wouldn't be having
this conversation.
Copy !req
271. I'm sorry, is this because I talked
to Wallace about your website?
Copy !req
272. Because I really didn't
mean to go over your head.
Copy !req
273. This has nothing to
do with that, all right?
Copy !req
274. I always appreciate constructive
criticism about my job performance.
Copy !req
275. I thrive on it.
Copy !req
276. I'm sorry, then do you mind
explaining it a little better?
Copy !req
277. 'Cause I'm not
sure what's really...
Copy !req
278. Whoa. Don't get
all defensive, all right?
Copy !req
279. It's just a warning.
Copy !req
280. If you want the details, Toby can provide
them. You take it easy, all right?
Copy !req
281. I'd say all the goofing
around at Pam's desk
Copy !req
282. and hanging out with Pam
has finally caught up to him.
Copy !req
283. You know, with Pam.
Copy !req
284. Hey, what happened?
What did Ryan want?
Copy !req
285. Oh, we were just
Copy !req
286. talking about
bureaucratic stuff.
Copy !req
287. Because you're very important.
Copy !req
288. Yeah.
Copy !req
289. Oh, what's Dwight up to?
Oh, probably nothing.
Copy !req
290. What the hell is this all about?
Copy !req
291. You're flipping
my car for profit.
Copy !req
292. It's my car now.
Copy !req
293. I gave you a deal
based on what you said to me.
Copy !req
294. Yeah, well, seller beware.
Now if you'll excuse me,
Copy !req
295. I've got to monitor a three-way
bidding war for my car on eBay.
Copy !req
296. I've got a Mad Lib for you.
Copy !req
297. "A stupid, idiotic numbskull"
Copy !req
298. "named Andy Bernard
sold his Xterra"
Copy !req
299. "to a smart and capable
man named Dwight."
Copy !req
300. "This is shaping up to be
an awesome day for Dwight."
Copy !req
301. Okay, everybody. Shh. Listen up.
Earlier today, Stanley sassed me,
Copy !req
302. and Toby gave me some suggestions
on how to discipline him.
Copy !req
303. They did not work, obviously,
because they were stupid.
Copy !req
304. So I am now going
to fake fire him.
Copy !req
305. What does that mean?
Copy !req
306. It's like a mock execution.
Copy !req
307. That's not a good idea.
Yes, it is a good idea.
Copy !req
308. It's the only possible
solution I have left.
Copy !req
309. Well, you can actually fire him.
Copy !req
310. No...
Copy !req
311. I've had enough of you.
Copy !req
312. Why are you telling us this?
Copy !req
313. Because I want you to behave as if I'm
actually firing him, Oscar, okay?
Copy !req
314. Michael, if you
hadn't told us this,
Copy !req
315. then we would've thought that
you were actually firing him.
Copy !req
316. I'm not firing him! I will need
you to act like I am firing him.
Copy !req
317. Just... What I'm going to do is I'm
going to pretend that I'm firing him.
Copy !req
318. And I need you to act like I am firing him.
Do you get that?
Copy !req
319. Do you get it? I'm
teaching him a lesson.
Copy !req
320. He needs to learn humility,
all right? That's all I'm...
Copy !req
321. Okay, here he comes.
Let's just play-act.
Copy !req
322. Stanley, may I talk
to you for a second?
Copy !req
323. Stanley Hudson, you are fired.
Copy !req
324. Are you serious?
Copy !req
325. I am serious.
We are all serious.
Copy !req
326. You are fired
like a heart attack.
Copy !req
327. You're firing me
over three words?
Copy !req
328. Yes.
Have you lost your mind?
Copy !req
329. Do you think I'm gonna
let you do this to me?
Copy !req
330. I've watched you screw
up this office for 10 years,
Copy !req
331. and I'm filing a lawsuit, and I'm gonna
tell them about every stupid thing
Copy !req
332. you've ever done
up in this office.
Copy !req
333. All right, okay.
Copy !req
334. You know what?
Now you know how I feel.
Copy !req
335. This was a fake firing.
Copy !req
336. Lesson learned. Good work, everybody.
Very nice.
Copy !req
337. So I'm not fired.
Copy !req
338. That's it.
Copy !req
339. And...
Copy !req
340. Do you have anything
to say to me?
Copy !req
341. Ooh, yes, I do.
Copy !req
342. You are out of your damn
little pea-sized mind.
Copy !req
343. What is wrong with you?
Do you have any sense at all?
Copy !req
344. Do you have any idea
how to run an office?
Copy !req
345. Every day you do something stupider
than you did the day before.
Copy !req
346. And I think, "There's no
possible way he can top that."
Copy !req
347. But what do you do? You find
a way, damn it, to top it.
Copy !req
348. You are a professional idiot...
Copy !req
349. Hey, stop it!
Copy !req
350. Okay, everybody out.
Copy !req
351. Who? Yeah, everybody
except Stanley.
Copy !req
352. Let's go.
Copy !req
353. I can't find my glasses.
Okay, you know what?
Copy !req
354. Why don't you take my hand and leave
them, and let's get out of here.
Copy !req
355. Okay, okay.
Copy !req
356. It's Michael versus Stanley, and
it is the clash of the titans.
Copy !req
357. In one corner, you have
Michael, and he is mad.
Copy !req
358. And then in the other corner,
you have Stanley, and he's mad.
Copy !req
359. So that's about it.
Copy !req
360. I don't understand why
you keep picking on me.
Copy !req
361. Oh, for the love of God.
Copy !req
362. You just
Copy !req
363. do, and I don't know why, so
please help me understand.
Copy !req
364. Fine. Here it is. You are
a person I do not respect.
Copy !req
365. The things you say, your
actions, your methods and style,
Copy !req
366. everything you would do, I
would do it the opposite way.
Copy !req
367. Well, Stanley,
Copy !req
368. maybe you are feeling
that you don't respect me
Copy !req
369. because you don't
know me very well.
Copy !req
370. Michael, I've known
you a very long time,
Copy !req
371. and the more I've gotten to know you,
the less I've come to respect you.
Copy !req
372. Any other theories?
Copy !req
373. All right, you don't respect me.
Copy !req
374. I accept that.
Copy !req
375. But listen to me.
Copy !req
376. You can't talk to me that way in this
office, you just can't. I am your boss.
Copy !req
377. Can't allow it.
Copy !req
378. Fair enough.
Copy !req
379. I am a good person, and sometimes
good people don't get no respect.
Copy !req
380. Rodney Dangerfield.
Copy !req
381. "Hey, I don't get no respect.
No respect at all."
Copy !req
382. "When I was in the sandbox
as a kid, I got no respect."
Copy !req
383. "My wife likes
to talk after sex."
Copy !req
384. "So she called me from a hotel
room, said, 'I don't respect you.'"
Copy !req
385. "Thoughtless."
Copy !req
386. "You know what don't get no respect?
Airplane food."
Copy !req
387. "Why don't they just make the
plane out of the airline food?"
Copy !req
388. "My wife don't get no respect. So...
Take her, please, for example."
Copy !req
389. "If you don't get no respect,
you might be a redneck."
Copy !req
390. "Respect is nice."
Borat.
Copy !req
391. "What's the deal with Grape-Nuts?
No grapes, no nuts."
Copy !req
392. "I don't get no respect."
Copy !req
393. So I'm thinking as a reward
for our loyal clients
Copy !req
394. that we contact their assistants
and we find out where they live,
Copy !req
395. and then, we go to their houses in the
middle of summer and go caroling.
Copy !req
396. It is a summer Christmas sale-e-bration,
and we'll call it, "A summer sales-a-lot."
Copy !req
397. Feedback, anybody?
Stanley?
Copy !req
398. Has potential to be
your best idea yet.
Copy !req
399. That's the dumbest
thing I ever heard.
Copy !req
400. Damn it, Phyllis.
Copy !req
401. All right, everybody
out except Phyllis.
