Episode Notes
Deleted scenes for this episode include a story about Michael and Todd Packer at a bar, Michael possibly being a bottle capper, Dwight questioning Josh about his past, and Jan hitting on Josh.
After a year and a half, we finally discover that Toby's last name is Flenderson. It was dropped into the script (much like all the last names) after Paul Lieberstein was given a starring role.

Jim: (Holds up card) Dwight's room key. (Stops in front of door) And Dwight's room. What can I say? Old habits die hard.

Michael: Some people need dozens of friends to say, 'look at me, I’m popular.' But not me, I’m very picky, I need three, maybe two. When you meet that someone special, you just know. Because a real relationship can’t be forced. It should just come about effort-leh-lessly.
(After meeting Jerome Bettis)
Dwight: Why do they call him The Bus?
Michael: Because he's afraid to fly.
Jim: You know, when I saw Dwight, I realized how stupid and petty all those pranks I pulled on him were. And then he opened his mouth. I wonder how hard it would be to get a copy of his room key?
Jim: Hey... how's Toby?
Michael: Toby Flenderson is everything that is wrong with the paper industry.
Michael: (to Pam) Word of advice, unbutton that top button. Let those things breathe.
Michael: Whoa, what are all those stains?
Dwight: Blood, urine, or semen.
Michael: Oh God, I hope it’s urine.
