"But it's not going to take... a week or two." "Do you know what this is for?" "Yes." "Michael likes me to run the camera when he makes his apology videos." "He says he needs a woman's touch."

"I expect you to apologize for that, Angela." "I'm sorry." "That you're both morons." "But you still said, "I'm sorry."" "I called you morons." "Still said it, so..." "Five, four, three." ""There is no way "I will resign." ""It wouldn't be fair." ""Not to the good workers I work with, "not to my clients," ""and especially not to me." ""Let's not forget who this whole" ""resigning business is about, anyway." ""If I could leave you "with one thought, remember..." ""it wasn't me." ""They are trying "to make me an escape goat." ""If I am fired, I swear to God" ""that every single piece "of copier paper in this town" ""is going to have the F-word on it." ""The F-word." ""You have one day."" "One day for what?" "That's... they always give an ultimatum." "Okay." " Good?" "Cut?" " Cut." "That was your best apology video ever." "I thought so too." "Got a farewell card for Debbie Brown." "I thought maybe you'd like to sign it." "Maybe throw a couple of bucks in there for her." "She's got children." "I feel terrible about Debbie Brown." "She got fired because of Dwight." "So I thought I'd pass around a good-bye card." "Maybe everyone could put in a couple of bucks to help her through these difficult times." "Why do bad things always happen to the good people?" "It's tragic." "Just tragic." " You want music?" " I don't care." "Come on, man." "Just give it a couple days." "I think you'll be all right." "Yeah." "You know what?" "I don't..." "Hey, Dwight." "You look really nice today." "Psh!" "I look like an idiot." "Hey, Karen." "Hey, Dwight." "Lookin' sharp." "Yeah, that's 'cause I'm... your boyfriend, Jim Halpert." "Wanna get together later and have sexual intercourse, 'cause you're my girlfriend?" " Do you?" " No." " Okay." " I'm good." "Thanks." "Look at that." "I'm Jim Halpert." "Spot on." "Blah, blah, a little comment." "Yeah."
