OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

Kevin's act had been growning a little thin for me, but was almost entirely made up for with that ONE silent pan-in to his face after he realized that he fried Jim's credit.

I felt like the Kevin bits were the only unimpeachably awesome parts from this episode.

Oscar: Why would you cancel Jim's credit cards?
Kevin: I usually can think quick on my feet, but they were so fast on the phone.
Oscar: This constitutes identity fraud.
Kevin: Oh, God. I wouldn't last in jail, Oscar. I'm not like you.
Oscar: What's that supposed to mean?
Kevin: Oh, you don't know about jail? Oh, you would love jail.
Oscar: Why would I love jail?
Kevin: Because... You would LOVE it.

Sure, the character is relatively one-note. But he hits that note so perfectly.

"I usually can think quick on my feet..."

I might be repeating myself but Kevin is criminally underrated. The episode where he opens the show narrating his expertise on chili making juxtaposed over him trying to carry the huge pot into the office, then spilling it everywhere, then frantically and hysterically trying to clean it up is one of the best scenes in the history of the show. I felt like laughing at him, helping him clean and giving him a shoulder to cry on all at the same time.

I would agree that was pretty damn funny. Trying to use papers from the reception desk to clean it up was a nice touch.

For those unaware, Yeti just got caught up on the first five seasons of the Office yesterday.

Now he totally gets what everyone else is talking about and has all the plot points to prove it!

Seems like the classy thing to do would be not to call attention to it.

As punishment for calling me out, it's Desipio policy to give you the plague.

Uh, that's the "plaque" sir.

Ah yes. The special demotivational plaque to break what's left of your spirit...



Bravo, sir, bravo.

Loved Michael's blind-guy eyes.  Also, Creed crying at the aria.

Really?  I was just coming on to say I thought it was the worst one I've seen.  Jenna Fischer is lucky she's hot, because she is an absolutely terrible actress.

I liked the episode as a whole, but I'll throw a bone to WeebsKerm that Fischer's a pretty limited actress and it showed last night.  Not that this is a surprise to anyone.

Good writing/hot actress can cover a multitude of sins.

Ask Jennifer Aniston.

I thought it was nearly as funny as the wedding episode. Kerm's Comedy-Street-Cred-as-Judged-by-Me VIP card.....REVOKED!

Jim's reaction after Michael started describing Pam's mom's car was entertaining.

This.  Also when Jim got pissed at Toby immediately after.

HOW AM I GOING TO GET INTO ALL THE CLUBS NOW?

I stand by my statement.  Jenna Fischer really grated on me during that episode.  Every time she said "franks & beans" I wanted her to go on maternity leave.  And her "No more meetings!" chant was beyond painful to watch.  Plus, I was looking forward to a MUCH more complicated "Jim screwing with Dwight's radio" plot, and then he went and got all distracted by the "serious" problem.  That episode just didn't do it for me.

Ryan's hat was pretty fucking sweet, though.
