Not the funniest episode yet, but definitely the sweetest. Rainn deserves an Emmy. And Mose was hilarious. Who was the actor?
Any time Ryan and Michael interact makes me laugh out loud. Starting up and running Powerpoint? Total riot, especially the download window with ‘estimated time: 12 minutes’ to download the update Michael accepted… and Michael saying it will take about six or seven minutes. Ryan manages to be very professional and not punch Michael. I can sympathize with that day and night.
Also, when Andy was chatting with Pam and spread his legs out real far to lower himself down to the counter/desk height was perfectly, stupidly funny, for almost no good reason.
I though the ‘whomever’ argument was 90% perfect. If someone would have diagrammed the sentence, I’d have sent the writers a fruit basket.

We had to watch the “whoever” vs. “whomever” conversation about three times to pick up all of the comments. (“Not a native speaker.”)
This was my favorite episode of the season. There were several laugh-out-loud moments. Pam and Jim at Dwight’s farm was hilarious, and I loved Angela’s restaurant requirements: “Nothing fancy or foreign. No bars or patios. And no seafood.”
[/QUOTE]
Angela also said “no vegetables”, but I could have sworn she was vegetarian.
Damn it. This is the second week I’ve been too tired to stay up to watch. Tell me about the “Jim talking about life without Pam” scene.
Actually, I did see the scene with Mose in the outhouse. I must’ve been shifting positions or something.
Excellent episode. A ton of laughs.
I thought Jim’s reaching out to Dwight was touching. And, then funny by Dwight’s turn to hug him and Jim was smart enough to exit beforehand.
I thought the Schrute Farm stuff was super funny, but I was expecting people here to hate it because it was out of the office and not super realistic. I am glad to see I was wrong, it seems like everyone thought it was funny. Yay!
I loved the Ryan/Dwight stare down. Man that was funny.
“I have started to get excited everytime I see that little guy come into the office.”
Great stuff. I have loved the hour episodes, but I guess they are at an end now, and I will have to be happy with just 20 some minutes of laughs and cringes!

Maybe Dwight made her eat a lot of beets, and now she’s reacting by avoiding all vegetables?

Continuity error: When Jan pulls up to DM, she throws her keys to Oscar. When she gets to the box car, she throws her keys into it before jumping up.

Those were her sunglasses she put in the box car. Ugly aviator sunglasses.
Um, was that cat the same one that Dwight had ditched in the adjacent office a couple episodes ago? The one that killed a family of raccoons?

“Ryan used me as an object!”

Yeah, the whole “whoever/whomever” “subject/object” discussion was hilarious, but Kelly throwing that one in just made it perfect.

Check Youtube.
He basically said that he was sooooo sad and could hardly live without Pam and that’s the reason he left Scranton. Dwight was touched and came around shortly after.
This episode was jank. It wasn’t funny and I thought the camera crew being at Schrute Farm was way out of wack. The only funny parts were Mose running next to the car as they drove up to the farm and Michael calling Stanley as a TM. That’s it.
Jim and Pam aren’t cute anymore they are obnoxiously “superior” to the rest of the cast.
Jan is completely unlikeable (though I didn’t see the last 5 minutes). She used to be hot and smart now she’s drunk and bitchy.
Michael is still a buffoon who is more unlikable every episode.
Ryan and Darrel are amusing though. Damn Kelly is one unattractive lady.

Thanks!
Michael and Dwight are really the only characters that I’m actively interested in. And this episode was chock full of both of them, so I loved it.
Michael getting on and off the bus broke my heart a little bit.

According to Mrs. Trion, yes. (I don’t remember it well enough.)

Well, you didn’t like the entire episode. I just thought people would come in and say the episode was great, aside from the schrute farm stuff, and I was glad people didn’t think that. I was in specific in my mind, if not my words.
In other words. Yes. Chopped liver.
Except McNew, he’s smart he spotted the vegetarian thing. That’s funny. Yeah, she couldn’t eat anything at Jim’s BBQ,and was unhappy with the vegetarian choices at Kelly’s Costume Party.

Can somebody explain the car situation to me? Michael and Jan now only have one car-- a Porshe. What happened to Michael’s company car?

They traded in each of their cars so they could afford the Porshe for Jan.

But you left out one of the few funny lines- at the end of Jim’s little speech, he said “…and I wouldn’t wish that on anyone, not even my worst enemy. And that includes you”, leaving us and Dwight to wonder whether he’s including Dwight in the “anyone” or in the “worst enemy” category.
So one thing that I question is Michaels mentions that he and Jan traded in their two cars for one, a Porche, I thought his Sebring was a company car, a perk for branch managers. I know it was a rental that he drove in the Lake, where is his Sebring, or was only having one car soley a plot device?
