Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10398

Andy

Hey. What are we doing? What's the game? I want in.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10399

Jim

Oh, there's no game. We're just trying to get these chips for Karen.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10400

Andy

Did you check the vending machine?

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10401

Karen

Oh, the vending machines! How did we miss that?

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10402

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10404

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10405

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10407

Michael

Oohh... can you imagine how much blood there was? If it happened right here, it would reach all the way to reception. Probably get on Pam.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10408

Phyllis

Okay that's enough.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10409

Michael

What?

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10410

Stanley

We do not wanna hear about this.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10411

Michael

Well, you know what? I didn't wanna hear about it either, Stanley, but I did and now I can't stop picturing it. He leaves work, he's on his way home... wham! His cappa is detated from his head!

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10412

Stanley

You have just spit on my face.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10413

Michael

Well, you know what? There's something wrong with you. There is something wrong with everybody in here. Because we have lost a member of our family and you don't wanna talk about it, you don't wanna think about it, you just wanna get back to work!

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10414

Michael

There are five stages to grief, which are denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. And right now, out there, they're all denying the fact that they're sad. And that's hard. And it's making them all angry. And it is my job to try to get them all the way through to acceptance. And if not acceptance, then just depression. If I can get them depressed, then I'll have done my job.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10415

Michael

I am going to throw you this ball. When you catch the ball, I want you to say the name of a person very important to you, somebody really special who died, and then I want you to say how they died, and you may cry if you like, that is encouraged. Let me just start. Let me show you how this works. I catch the ball. I lost Ed Truck. And... it feels like somebody took my heart and dropped it into a bucket of boiling tears... and at the same time, somebody else is hitting my soul in the crotch with a frozen sledgehammer... and then a third guy walks in and starts punching me in the grief bone... and I'm crying, and nobody can hear me, because I am terribly, terribly... terribly alone.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10416

Roy

Excuse me, I'm sorry to interrupt, uh, I need to see Pam. There seems to be, like, something wrong with the radiator in her car.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10417

Michael

Okay, fine. Hurry back.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10418

Roy

There's nothing wrong with your car. I just thought you might like a break from the 'grief counseling' session.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10419

Pam

Oh. I would like a break.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10420

Roy

How are you likin' the new car?

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10421

Pam

Great.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10422

Roy

Yeah? Sure is small. Got airbags?

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10423

Pam

I think so. I don't know, I was mainly focused on the cup holders.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10424

Roy

Well, you're not still driving so fast, are you? Yeah.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10425

Jim

Hi, yeah. This is Mike from the West Side Market. Well, we get a shipment of Herr's salt and vinegar chips, and we ordered that about three weeks ago and haven't ... . yeah. You have 'em in the warehouse. Great. What is my store number... six. Wait, no. I'll call you back. Shut up.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10426

Karen

Six?

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10427

Michael

Okay, we can start. Um...

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10428

Pam

You waited for me?

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10429

Michael

Yeah. Pam, you're a member of this family. So we will wait for our family members. Phyllis, you wanna give it a shot?

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10430

Dwight

I got it. When my mother was pregnant with me, they did an ultrasound and found she was having twins. When they did another ultrasound a few weeks later, they discovered, that I had resorbed the other fetus. Do I regret this? No. I believe his tissue has made me stronger. I now have the strength of a grown man and a little baby.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10431

Michael

Okay, why don't you throw the ball to somebody else.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10432

Stanley

Nope.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10433

Michael

Oh, yes Stanley. Come on. Your turn, you have to go.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10434

Stanley

I will NOT.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10435

Michael

Okay... I'm going to toss the ball to Pam.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10436

Pam

Let's see. I had an aunt that I was really close to. She was this amazing female boxer. Um, anyway, she was injured in a fight, and she was paralyzed. So, you can imagine how upset I was when I found out that she asked her manager to remove her breathing tube so she could die.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10437

Michael

Wow. If you wanna cry, that's okay.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10438

Ryan

Thanks. Um, a few years ago, my family was on a safari in Africa and, um, my cousin, Mufasa was um, he was trampled to death by a pack of wildebeests and, um, we all... took it really hard. All of us kind of in the audience of what happened.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10439

Michael

Do you want to talk about it anymore?

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10440

Ryan

Oh, it would probably take me like an hour and a half to tell that whole story.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10441

Kevin

Me, me, me, me, me me. Yes. Okay, um. I was trying to throw this party once. And everyone was over for the weekend. And then my uncle Bernie died, and so me and my best friend, we had to pretend like he was alive, so...

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10442

Michael

Wait a second. That's Weekend at Bernie's. Do you think that this is a game?

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10443

Phyllis

Well, there is a ball.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10444

Michael

All right, we're starting over.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10445

No, I'm done.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10446

You are not leaving. No! We are not done.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10447

We really have a lot of work to do right now.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10448

Michael

Yeah. Well, you know what? The guy who had my job has died. And nobody cares! And he sat at my desk.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10449

Toby

Michael, look. I know this is hard for you, but death's just a part of life. I mean, just this morning I saw a little bird fly into the glass doors downstairs and die. And I had to keep going.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10450

Michael

How do you know?

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10451

Toby

What?

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10452

Michael

That that bird was dead? Did you check its breathing?

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10453

Toby

It was obvious...

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10454

Michael

Was its heart beating, Toby? Did you check it? No, of course you didn't. You're not a veterinarian. You don't know ANYTHING!

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10455

Dwight

Michael! Michael. Michael ...

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10456

Oh, God!

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10464

Michael

No, he's not.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10465

Dwight

Michael, get him away from your head! He is covered in germs and bacteria!

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10466

Michael

Well, you can't get diseases from a bird!

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10467

Angela

A dead bird should not be in the kitchen!

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10468

Michael

We don't know if it's dead.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10469

Kelly

Ugh, no that thing is

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10470

Dwight

You want me to flush him?

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10471

Michael

Attention everybody. This will only take a second of your time. Today at 4 p.m. we will be meeting in the parking lot to have a funeral service for this bird.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10472

Meredith

I have a lot of work to do.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10473

Michael

Well, I'm sorry to inconvenience you, Meredith. But that is what you do when things die. You honor them. Toby killed this bird. And now we are going to honor it.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10474

Angela

But...

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10475

Michael

No, no, no! That's enough! You know what? This bird is dead. He died alone. The least you can do is be there for him now. Find a box for him.

Season 3 · Episode 4 · Quote 10476
