Episode Quotes |
| |
Pam: Every time Michael's in a meeting, he makes me give him a Post-it note telling him who's on the phone. I did it once, and he freaked out, he loved it so much. The thing is, he doesn't get that many calls, so he has me make them up every ten minutes. | Pam: The warehouse got a ping-table last week, now Jim comes down and plays with Darryl. Sometimes I bring him juice. My boyfriend is twelve. | Kelly: I don't talk trash, I talk smack. They're totally different. Trash talk is little hypothetical, like, 'your mama is so fat she could eat the internet.' But smack talk is happening like right NOW, like, 'you're ugly and I know it for a fact, 'cause i got the evidence right THERE.' | Lawyer: How long have you known Miss Levinson?
Michael: Six years and two months.
Laywer: And you were directly under her the entire time?
Michael: That's what she said.
Lawyer: Excuse me?
Michael: (slower) That's what she said.
Lawyer: Miss Levinson TOLD you that she was your direct superior?
Michael: (confused) W... What... Why would she say that? | Kelly: Jim couldn't hit a ping pong ball if it was the size of the moon. | Michael: You expect to get screwed by your company, but you never expect to get screwed by your girlfriend. | Jim: Good game Meredith.
Meredith: Don't patronize me. | Jan: All right, I stole your diary and gave it to my lawyer. You e-mailed a topless photo of me to everyone in our company. Let's call it even.
Michael: Fine. I love you.
Jan: I love you too. |

Kelly: (singing) Hey hey you you, I don’t like your boyfriend...
Kelly is singing (and changing the lyrics to) the song "Girlfriend" by Avril Lavigne. | Lawyer: How long have you known the plaintiff?
Michael: I haven't actually seen it. But I have seen The Firm, and I am planning on renting The Pelican Brief.
Michael mistakenly thinks "the plaintiff" is the title of a movie. Both The Firm and The Pelican Brief are novels written by famous author John Grisham, and both were made into films. |

Michael: So, here's the deal. Um, I am on my way to New York to be deposed as part of Jan's wrongful termination lawsuit. The company fired her for having the courage to augment her boobs.
Jan was fired from Dunder Mifflin in the Season Three episode, "The Job." | Diane: (to Michael) Ummm... would you mind please just, uh, taking a quick look at, uh, this photograph please.
The photograph Diane shows Michael is the picture of him and Jan at the Sandals resort in Jamaica. This photograph was e-mailed around Dunder Mifflin in the Season Three episode, "Back From Vacation." | Visual: Michael holds up a framed document
The document Michael holds up is the declaration of his and Jan's relationship that they gave to HR last year. Michael mentioned in the season three episode, "Cocktails," that he was going to frame their "love contract." | Jan: People underestimate Michael. There are plenty of things that he is well above average at. Like ice skating. He is a very good ice skater.
We saw Michael ice skate in the Season Two episode, "Michael's Birthday," when the staff went to the skating rink. |
