Moss: Roy is stuck underneath a lady's desk.
Jen: What? Still?
Moss: Look, I know that normally this would be very funny but he's been under there too long for reasonable explanation. If that woman looks down she's going to assume he's a desk rabbit.
Jen: What's a desk rabbit?
Moss: I just made that up. But that's probably going to be what they start to call people like Roy. But Roy's not a desk rabbit, he's my best friend. edit »
Jen: How come you never see goths driving cars?
Richmond: Oh we drive cars. We're just like you really, except we listen to Cradle of Filth.
Jen: I assume Cradle Of Filth is a band, and it's not just an actual cradle of filth.
Richmond: Ooh, no! That would be horrible! edit »
Roy: (singing) We don't need no education.
Moss: Yes you do. You've just used a double negative. edit »
Roy: At last things are back to normal. As long as no one goes through that door! (pointing to an old, creepy, menacing green door) edit »
Moss: Hello, Richmond. How are things?
Richmond: Well, you know, not brilliant. edit »

The Bottom Line: "Not my favorite storyline"
I can't really say that this episode was a "miss" per say, but it was a little shy off the mark. Still funny, but simply not up to par with the first three episodes. ...Continue »

The Red Door
The Bottom Line: "Character development"
Jen decides the office needs some more light and more space, but notices a red door before she can convince anyone to change the delicate ecosystem balance. Roy's well-tuned troubleshooting is thwarted, and he has to actually go upstairs, but gets trapped ...Continue »
