Quotes

add »
Oscar: Hey, I just wanted you to know that you can't just say the word bankruptcy and expect anything to happen.
Michael: I didn't say it, I declared it. (edit)
Oscar: Michael, are you having money problems?
Michael: Monkey problems. No, I'm not having monkey problems. Why would I have monkey problems?
Oscar: You heard me correctly.
Michael: Oh, I hate monkeys. (edit)
Andy: You need to set me up with her (Angela). I know she told you that she's looking, and she's totally not responding to my moves.
Pam: What moves?
Andy: I've moonwalked past accounting like ten times. (edit)
Michael: We will find another way! Well, ask... Power Point.
Oscar: Michael, this is a presentation tool.
Michael: YOU are a presentation TOOL! (edit)
Jim: (confessional) You know I just realized, this is Pam's and my first night away together. I used to play it over in my head, and it was just a little bit different. Maybe a, uh, nice hotel, or a romantic dinner? Wine. But wine that wasn't made out of beets. Didn't think Dwight would be involved at all. And, uh, I always imagined less manure. I mean some manure. Just, less. (edit)

Trivia

add »
Angela suffers from sleep apnea, a condition in which a person stops breathing for short periods while sleeping. (edit)
You can see Dwight's Dundies at his house, although they are not on a shelf above his bed as he states in "The Dundies" (edit)
Kevin's band is now known as "Scrantonicity II", not "Scrantonicity," implying he had a fallout with the original members of the band. (edit)
In this episode, Mose is shown using an outhouse away from the house. However, in "Office Olympics", Dwight says the only bathroom is under the porch. (edit)
Creed's fake passport shows a birthday of February 8, 1943 and the name "William Charles Schneider", both actor Creed Bratton's real birthday and name, meaning they actually used the actor's real passport for his character's fake one. (edit)

Allusions

add »
Pam calls Dwight's Bed and Breakfast "Beets Motel" which refers to the Bates Motel from the 1959 novel, Psycho, by Robert Bloch, adapted to film by Alfred Hitchcock. (edit)
