Paul Feig was nominated for "Outstanding Directorial Achievement in a Comedy Series for 2008" by the Director's Guild of America for this episode.

Pam: We got you this. (hands Jan a bottle of wine)
Jan: Oh well Pam, thank you. This will be great to cook with.

Pam: (notices the bench at the end of the bed) What a cute bench.
Michael: Thanks, that's my bed. Jan has some space issues so I curl up on that puppy.
Jim: Really? 'Cause... seems pretty narrow. And short.
Michael: It's actually a lot bigger than it seems. Look at this. (lies down on the bench and scrunches up to fit)
Jan: See, he fits perfectly.

Michael: You know what, Hunter was a terrible assistant. That is why Ryan fired him.
Jan: Well I think he's probably just about as reliable as Pam, being that it usually takes you an afternoon to get back to me.
Angela: Sometimes I think she holds on to faxes.
Pam: (to the camera) I don't care what they say, I just want to eat. Which I realize is a lot to ask for... at a dinner party.

Michael: (to Jan) When I said that I wanted to have kids, and you said you wanted me to have a vasectomy, what did I do? And then when you said that you might want to have kids and I wasn't so sure, who had the vasectomy reversed? And then when you said you definitely didn't want to have kids, who had it reversed back? Snip snap! Snip snap! Snip snap! I did. You have no idea the physical toll that three vasectomies have on a person. And I bought this condo to fill with children!

Jim: You know, babe, I should have told you but... I did something bad.
Pam: Mmm?
Jim: (shows Pam Hunter's CD) I stole this. For you, babe.

(They are all playing Charades at Michael's party)
Andy: No it's a... hump. There's a hump.
Jan: Joe Camel!
Andy: Okay yes, first name of that animal and the second name is the state where Helena is the capital.
Pam: Montana.
Jan: Oh!
Pam: Joe Montana!

Jan references Joe Camel, the official mascot of Camel brand cigarettes. Pam guesses the correct answer, former NFL player Joe Montana, who was the quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers.

Michael: (to Jan) When I wanted to see Stomp, and you wanted to see Wicked, what did we see?

Stomp is a musical performance group that performs using found objects and their own bodies to create rhythm and music. Wicked is a Broadway musical about the The Wizard of Oz, told from the viewpoint of the wicked witch.

Michael: Okay, he is the governor of California, he is The Terminator.

Michael is referring to Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, who starred in the film The Terminator and its sequels.

Visual: The video camera tripod

We knew Michael or Jan must have had a video camera, because Michael mentioned in the Season Three episode, "Women's Appreciation" that Jan liked to videotape them during sex, and then critique him.

Visual: Michael's Dundies Awards

The first appearance of "The Dundies" office awards was in the Season Two episode, "The Dundies."
