    I don't have a ton of contact with the Scranton branch, but, before I left, I took a box of Dwight's stationery, so, from time to time, I send Dwight faxes. From himself. From the future.

  32. Michael

    It is an outrage, that's all. It's... hey're making a huge, huge mistake. Let's see Josh replace these people. Let's see Josh find another Stanley. You think Stanleys grow on trees? Well they don't. There is no Stanley tree. Do you think the world is crawling with Phyllises? Show me that farm. With Phyllises and Kevins sprouting up all over the place. Ripe for the plucking. Show me that farm.

    When you become close with someone, you develop a kind of sixth sense. You can read their moods like a book. And right now, the title of Michael's book is, 'Something Weird is Going On.' Colon, 'What Did Jan Say? The Michael Scott Story. By Michael Scott, with Dwight Schrute.'

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11238

  48. Pam

    What can't you tell me?

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11239

  49. Michael

    Nothing, Pam.What difference does it make? We'll be gone in a couple of weeks anyway.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11240

  50. Pam

    What?!

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11241

    What?

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11242

    Do I have any messages?

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11244

  54. Pam

    Michael, what's going on?

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11245

  55. Michael

    Ok, ok...

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11246

  56. Michael

    Listen up, everybody... I have some news. We are screwed. Dunder-Mifflin, Scranton is being shut down.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11247

  57. Toby

    Michael, uh... we shouldn't be talking about this until all the decisions have been made.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11248

  58. Michael

    You knew about this all along, didn't you?

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11249

  59. Toby

    Jan told me just a few minutes before she told you.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11250

  60. Michael

    Traitor. You are a traitor.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11251

  61. Angela

    What about us, Michael? Do we still have jobs?

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11252

  62. Michael

    I don't know. Probably not. This is the worst.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11253

  63. Ryan

    It makes perfect sense that it would happen today because I just received this in the mail. A thousand business cards with this address and phone number.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11254

  64. Angela

    I don't want to blame anyone in particular. I think everyone's to blame.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11255

  66. Andy

    Stamford, Connecticut! Stamford, Connecticut!

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11257

  67. Jim

    I worked in Scranton for a really long time. And uh, it's going to be weird that it's all disappearing. I mean, I always knew that the branch would shut down someday. I just figured it would be because Michael sold the building for some magic beans.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11258

  68. Stanley

    I couldn't be happier. I'm gonna take the severance and retire. My wife and I are gonna travel. I really couldn't be happier.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11259

  69. Pam

    It's a blessing in disguise. Actually, not even in disguise. Sometimes at home, I answer the phone, 'Dunder-Mifflin, this is Pam.' So, maybe that'll stop now.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11260

  70. Roy

    What does that mean?

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11261

  71. Kevin

    Well, some of us are fired and a few are going to Connecticut.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11262

  72. Roy

    I don't really want to work here without Pam. You know that Cinderella song, 'You Don't Know What You Got (Till It's Gone)'? That pretty much says it better than how I know how to say it... in words.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11263

  73. Darryl

    Hey Mike.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11264

  74. Michael

    Darryl. Noble Darryl.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11265

  75. Darryl

    Look, I heard about the office. Tough break.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11266

  76. Michael

    I know, I know. Well, I'll land on my feet. Don't worry about me.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11267

  77. Darryl

    I wasn't.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11268

  78. Michael

    So, you'll be okay too. You're a warrior. You're smart, capable. You'll find something else and...

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11269

  79. Darryl

    Actually, Bob Vance bought out the warehouse. So he's keeping on the whole crew. So, we good.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11270

  80. Michael

    Awesome.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11271

  81. Michael

    This is my house. The CFO is taking away my house and giving it to Josh. And Josh is giving the garage to Bob Vance.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11272

  82. Michael

    All right, listen up. Some of you may have heard some rumors about the branch closing. But, I am not going to take this lying down. I have a plan and I am going to save our jobs. So just hang in there. Let's go.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11273

  83. Dwight

    Yes!

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11274

  84. Pam

    Oh, good... you're bringing Dwight.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11275

  85. Michael

    Yes. This might get ugly. I need backup.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11276

  86. Dwight

    What's the plan?

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11277

  87. Michael

    Go to New York, confront the CFO, show him he's making a mistake... save the branch.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11278

  88. Dwight

    Can I drive?

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11279

  89. Michael

    No... way.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11280

  90. Dwight

    Shotgun!

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11281

  91. Michael

    No. There's no one else.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11282

  92. Dwight

    Still.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11283

  93. Dwight

    Thank you very much. Okay, secretary says Wallace is away for the day and won't be coming back into the office.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11284

  94. Michael

    Okay, okay. Um...

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11285

  95. Dwight

    But, do not worry. I have his home address right here.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11286

  96. Michael

    Why?

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11287

  97. Dwight

    Christmas card list.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11288

  98. Michael

    You sent him cards? You never met him.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11289

  99. Dwight

    But when I do, we'll have something to talk about.

    Season 3 · Episode 7 · Line 11290

  100. Jim

    Hey, do you have a second?
