The got the PT Cruiser after Jan traded in her Porsche.
Thank you! I finally watched both eps off the DVR today, the credits of MSPC got cut off and I couldn’t find a credit for her anywhere online, but here. 
Because I taped it off global and watched the smallville rerun at 8, (it just happened to show the next episode I was needing to watch at this point,) I found out that they actually showed them out of order. At 9pm was the one with Michael, Pam, and Ryan already in the building, and at 9:30 the one with Pam and Michael working the lists.
I actually wondered about some things, like why Michael had moved out of the office to his condo, for a little bit. And if ‘new Kelly’ had been scared away from the job. And then when he talked about recruiting Ryan, I remembered that NBC was showing them at 8 and 9, and it all fell into place - global had moved the 8 show to 9:30, possibly not realizing that it was a new offering.
No prob-bob! For the record, I didn’t find the second video all that amusing. I just heard it was popular on YouTube.
Hey, I thought I had asked this before, but I guess not. That was the office’s old copier, wasn’t it? That’s why it had “TRASH” on it. 
I didn’t get Andy’s comment that his maid died. (Why would a single, middle-class guy have a maid?) But then it occurred to me that his family must have been wealthy and this was the maid in the house during his childhood. The Wikipedia article on the character mentions deleted scenes from older episodes in which Andy mentions his family’s money. (Actually, perhaps the Bernard fortune might be one way for the situation with Michael Scott to resolve itself; perhaps Andy’s family will take control of Dunder-Mifflin.)
And we know that he doesn’t exactly live an average, middle-class lifestyle. He had seemingly endless amounts at his disposal to keep shelling out for his prospective wedding and honeymoon.
We know the family is rich. (His dad paid for a building in order to get him admitted to Cornell.) We don’t know that they have the kind of money to buy out a N.Y.S.E.-listed public corporation.
Thanks, that explains why he still has it. Was the Sebring he had a company car, though?
Yes, it was.
The way I took it was as a punchline to the call being transferred around… after all of that, no one was really wondering what the call was all about, and then boom. Dead maid! And he looked so shocked and sad. I found it hilarious.
It doesn’t have to make that much sense when it’s funny, and maybe she wasn’t HIS maid full-time - I could see a single middle-class guy having a cleaning lady into his home one or two hours a week.
I assumed that was the case (that she came once a week, half a day) and it’s not at all uncommon.
While It could be his current maid, (this *IS *Andy), I’m still leaning more towards Dewey Finn’s theory that it was his childhood maid, but I guess we’ll probably never know for sure. Only reason I’m leaning that way is because he seemed like he lost someone close, and perhaps she was a small part of his childhood… 
That said; hilarious.
I do believe that Andy’s family was wealthy. As acsenray mentioned, his father donated a building to Cornell to secure his admission. According to the Wikipedia article on the character, this was revealed in a deleted scene from the Branch Wars episode. The article mentions other details about the character’s upper-crust WASP background (raised in Simsbury, Connecticut, that he “mentioned shooting an 80 pound shark with a rifle near his father’s home in Montauk, New York” and of course the preppy clothing).
So I wouldn’t be surprised if his was the sort of household with distant parents and he was closer to the maid than he was to them. (Or perhaps I’m reading way too much into this.)
That’s how I pictured it after reading your post. Kind of like Michael’s best friend being the lunch lady, but not as pathetic.
Hey, I mentioned this in the P&R’s thread, but did anyone know the writer’s of The Office are penning Ghostbusters 3. I hope Ed Truck makes a cameo.
I just saw the episodes now on Hulu. Not much more to add to the discussion, but I’m pretty sure that the paper that Pam tore a scrap off of was the coupon she was supposed to copy. You see the back for a second and it had the same design work around the edges.
