    Okay.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16728

  2. Michael

    Oh, and Hunter? Could you tell her, 'Brbrbrbrbr!' also?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16729

  3. Dwight

    You showed great leadership potential at the coal walk. Even if you did follow it with that embarrassing personal confession.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16730

  4. Pam

    Thank you.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16731

  5. Dwight

    I had to make Andy my number two. It's political, complicated, you wouldn't understand. I want you... to be Assistant Regional Manager.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16732

  6. Pam

    Really?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16733

  7. Dwight

    Well, in a sense. Although, publicly I am going to retain the Assistant Regional Manager position.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16734

  8. Pam

    You will be your own assistant.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16735

  9. Dwight

    Correct, I need someone I can trust. But I would also like the title... to be secretly applied to you. Just stripped of its pomp and frills.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16736

  10. Pam

    Okay. So... you would be the Regional Manager,

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16737

  11. Dwight

    Mmmmmm, let's call it Secret Assistant

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16738

  12. Pam

    Mm-hmm.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16739

  13. Dwight

    Do you accept?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16740

  14. Pam

    Absolutely, I do.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16741

  15. Pam

    I learned from Jim, if Dwight ever asks you to accept something secret... you reply, 'Absolutely, I do.'

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16742

  16. Michael

    Hello, hello!

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16743

  17. David

    Michael, good to see you!

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16744

  18. Michael

    Good to see you. Here are the post-merger performance stats that you asked for.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16745

  19. David

    Oh, great. I've been meaning to thank you by the way. You didn't lose a single customer during the merger, and you still managed to trim the budget? That is nice work. So, let me ask you a question right off the bat. What do you think are your greatest strengths as a manager?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16746

  20. Michael

    Why don't I tell you what my greatest weaknesses are? I work too hard. I care too much. And sometimes I can be too invested in my job.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16747

  21. David

    Okay. And your strengths?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16748

  22. Michael

    Well, my weaknesses are actually... strengths.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16749

  23. David

    Oh. Yes. Very good.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16750

  24. Michael

    Thank you.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16751

  25. David

    Very good.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16752

  26. Phyllis

    Dwight is our new boss.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16753

  27. Oscar

    Oh, Michael's not going anywhere.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16754

  28. Pam

    Then who do you think will get the job?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16755

  29. Kevin

    Karen. She looks corporate. Those little pants suits.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16756

  30. Phyllis

    I think it's gonna be Michael.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16757

  31. Oscar

    Do you really think he's qualified for that job?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16758

  32. Phyllis

    No, but he wasn't qualified for the job he has now, and he got that one.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16759

  33. Oscar

    Mm. Yeah.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16760

  34. Dwight

    Listen up! Come to the center of the room, please. This... is a Schrute Buck. When you have done something good, you will receive one Schrute Buck. One thousand Schrute Bucks... equals an extra five minutes for lunch.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16761

  35. Pam

    What is the cash value of a Schrute Buck?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16762

  36. Dwight

    Excellent question, Pam. 1/100th of a cent.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16763

  37. Oscar

    So ten

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16764

  38. Dwight

    Just... zip your lid! Another announcement. Michael wasted an enormous amount of the group's time and patience with non-work related ethnic celebrations and parades of soft-minded dogoodedness. No longer. No more meetings!

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16765

  39. Stanley

    Amen.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16766

  40. Dwight

    Instead, today I will begin my first lecture in a long series of lectures designed to increase your knowledge on the world of paper.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16767

  41. Kevin

    Do we have to?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16768

  42. Dwight

    Yes! Michael is gone. There's a new sheriff here in these offices, and his name is 'me.' Conference room! Ten seconds! All of you!

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16769

  43. Pam

    I literally cannot wait to see what Dwight has planned. And I wish Jim were here.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16770

  44. David

    What do you think we could be doing better?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16771

  45. Michael

    I've never been a big fan of the name Dunder Mifflin. I was thinking we could name the company something like, 'Paper Great. Where great paper is our passion. We're GRRRRRRRRRREAT!' I don't know, could be good. Or, uh, 'Super Duper Paper. It's super duper.' I don't know, something like that.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16772

  46. David

    Okay!

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16773

  47. Michael

    Okay.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16774

  48. David

    Thanks for comin' in, Michael.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16775

  49. Michael

    Thank you.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16776

  50. David

    It is always a treat when our paths cross.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16777

  51. Michael

    It is always a treat when

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16778

  52. David

    You're back together.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16779

  53. Michael

    Yes. And I am very excited about the prospect of working under her... or on top of her. Mm, that's not sexual, just... we're all professionals.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16780

  54. David

    Okay, uh. Well, I thought it was clear in the description, the position... the job you're applying for... is Jan's job.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16781

  55. Michael

    I don't understand. So, we're gonna tag team it?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16782

  56. David

    No, we're letting Jan go.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16783

  57. Dwight

    Listen up. Let's start... from the ground

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16784

  58. Kevin

    Trees.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16785

  59. Dwight

    Trees! And where do trees grow?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16786

  60. Kevin

    Forest.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16787

  61. Dwight

    Soil. Right. We have, in front of you here, seven different types of Pennsylvania top soil. Now, what would you say... is the most important element in the production of above ground leafy growth? Probably phosphorus, right? Wrong! It's nitrogen! Absorb this information. Good! Now, let us discuss precipitation. Stanley! When rainfall occurs, does it usually fall in a liquid, solid, or gaseous... state?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16788

  62. Stanley

    Liquid.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16789

  63. Dwight

    Very good! You have earned one Schrute Buck.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16790

  64. Stanley

    I don't want it.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16791

  65. Dwight

    Then you have been deducted 50 Schrute Bucks!

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16792

  66. Stanley

    Make it 100.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16793

  67. Dwight

    We--- Don't you wanna earn Schrute Bucks?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16794

  68. Stanley

    No. In fact, I'll give you a billion Stanley Nickels if you never talk to me again.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16795

  69. Dwight

    What's the ratio of Stanley Nickels to Schrute Bucks?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16796

  70. Stanley

    The same as the ratio of unicorns to leprechauns.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16797

  71. Dwight

    Okay---

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16798

  72. Andy

    That's it!

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16799

  73. Dwight

    What---

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16800

  74. Andy

    Class is canceled, everybody out!

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16801

  75. Dwight

    No wait, what are you doing?!

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16802

  76. Andy

    I'm punishing them.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16803

  77. Dwight

    No, no, no, wait! Class is not canceled.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16804

  78. Everyone

    [grumbling, getting loud]

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16805

  79. Pam

    HEY! COME ON! Let's listen to Dwight's presentation!

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16806

  80. Oscar

    What--- What are you winking for?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16807

  81. Dwight

    Zip your lid!

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16808

  82. Karen

    So, that's... my basic 5 year plan. And after that, who knows?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16809

  83. David

    Okay. Uh, now, this may seem like an odd question, but...

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16810

  84. Karen

    Yeah?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16811

  85. David

    ...what do you think about Michael Scott?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16812

  86. Karen

    He's a very nice man. And he's very well suited for the job he has now.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16813

  87. David

    This is off the record.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16814

  88. Karen

    He would be disaster.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16815

  89. Jan

    Hey you!

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16816

  92. Michael

    Pretty good.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16819

  93. Jan

    Yeah?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16820

  94. Michael

    Could have gone better I guess.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16821

  95. Jan

    Oh. I'll put in a good word for you.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16822

  96. Michael

    Cool. Maybe you should do it sooner rather than later.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16823

  97. Jan

    What?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16824

  98. Michael

    Daaah, let's just run away together. Let's just run away to Jamaica and live in a bungalow. You have some savings right? You could pay off my debts. It would... be fine. We'd have fun.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16825

  99. Jan

    What's... what's the matter? What... what happened in there?

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16826

  100. Michael

    I can't tell you.

    Season 3 · Episode 23 · Line 16827
