[x] Remove Ad
Someone leaves a nasty mess on the carpet in Michael's office, which shakes his illusion of being loved by the staff. To try to re-gain his popularity and seem like a regular guy, he takes back his old desk among the sales team (where Jim sits) and initiates a sales contest to rally the troops. Jim is displaced from his seat and has to sit in the back next to chatty Kelly, and away from Pam.

Episode Quotes |

Pam: Roy and I just got back from the Poconos. I get ten vacation days a year, and I try to hold off taking them for as long as possible. And this year I got to... the third week in January. | Michael: Last week I would have given a kidney to anyone in this office. I would have reached right into my stomach and pulled it out for them. But now, no. I hope they ask, so they can hear me say, 'No. I only give my organs to my real friends, go get yourself a monkey kidney.' | Pam: (On Jim's voicemail) Sudoku. Moderate. 18 minutes. Suck on that, Halpert! | Michael: I am the victim of a hate crime. Stanley knows what I'm talking about.
Stanley: That is not what a hate crime is.
Michael: Well I hated it. |

In the old photo of Michael, he has a mullet. It is unlikely a conservative company such as Dunder Mifflin would allow a sales employee to have such long hair. |
