After last week's wedding extravaganza on The Office, we come back to a Dunder Mifflin minus Jim and Pam. With the two lovebirds on their honeymoon, the focus shifts to Michael, who once again gets himself into a pickle with a guy — who he thinks — is affiliated with the mafia. I always love Andy, Dwight, and Michael banter, and this week's episode is full of it.
Debate the events of the night with The Office! group in the BuzzSugar Community, and then check out my favorite lines of the evening when you read more.
Kevin is so creepy, it's hilarious. First he takes over Jim's desk while Jim's gone — then his identity. I love his conversation with the credit card company where he tried to convince them to let the "criminal" (meaning Jim) continue to spend the money.
- "Criminals are like raccoons. You give them a taste of cat food, and they'll be back for the whole cat."—Dwight
I really wish they could string out this mafia storyline a bit longer, just so I can watch Andy and Dwight strategize. My favorite part is when Andy dresses up as a car mechanic (Pat!) with a tire iron — "It's metal, so I can hit somebody with it." Gotta love Pat.
- "I wouldn't last in jail, Oscar, I'm not like you. You don't know about jail? You would love jail."—Kevin
Ha! I know it's totally un-PC, but I think this line is hilarious. Oscar definitely puts up with way too many gay jokes.
- "I think I'm in trouble with the mob. Or a major insurance carrier."—Michael
Michael's powers of perception have no bounds, as usual.
- "If there's one thing I hate more than the mafia, it's a liar. I wish the mafia would go out and kill all the liars and then bury them in my yard." — Michael
Michael goes on a major power trip after making the "mob" back down. Not like Michael needs a power trip, but oh well...Hopefully, he won't take it out too much on the rest of the office next week.
So what'd you think of the episode? I'll admit that I sort of missed Jim and Pam, and I could always use a little more Kelly.

I liked how Oscar tried to take on the role of responsible, level-headed person now that Jim and Pam are away. And I like how Toby was like "Oscar said I've checked out? Huh."
1I loved Dwight saying that "R" is the most menacing of all letters. "That's why it's called 'MURDER' and not 'MUCK-DUCK'" or something like that. I about fell off the couch LOL-ing!
2lol yea, the murder and not muck-duck was the best line of the night
the jail line was pretty good too! poor oscar!
3I totally agree: "R is among the most menacing of sounds. That's why it's called 'murder' and not 'mukduk'." I immediately typed it as my Facebook status, lol.
4I don't know why I really wasn't feeling this episode---some good lines but overall it seemed a bit drab.
5I agree popcorn, I didn't think it was that good. I'm probably just still happy from the wedding episode.
But I loved the muck duck line.
6yeah, i feel like they were stalling for time until jim and pam come back.
7I loved this episode. I really like when Dwight and Andy interact.
8muck duck took the cake, but i loved oscar's "jim and pam are away, so there's not the usual balance of the sane and others without them."
