Pam

Wow, there are, there are questions to that. Okay. Um, you know what, no questions. Last item on the agenda, Toby would like to make an announcement.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41428

Toby

Hi guys.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41429

Michael

Hi.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41430

Toby

Uh, I just wanted to let you know that, uh, I'll be taking a leave of absence starting next week.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41431

Michael

Uh, because you've been on the Lam? Because the 'boring police' have been after you, and they finally caught up with you?

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41432

Toby

Uh, no, the opposite. I was actually selected to be a juror on a very high-profile case.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41433

Michael

Yes, the case of the horrible red-headed sad sack. And the verdict, it was Toby. And the sentence, death. Death to Toby!

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41434

Dwight

Death to Toby!

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41435

Toby

Okay, that's hurtful talk. We've talked about that. You know, I don't interrupt your announcements.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41436

Michael

You know what you, you, you leave these huge pauses in your sentences. What do you expect me to do?

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41437

Phyllis

What's the case, Toby?

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41438

Toby

Well, I really can't talk about it, but it's a very high profile case.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41439

Andy

Is it criminal?

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41440

Toby

Yes.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41441

Andy

Have we heard of it?

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41442

Toby

I don't know.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41443

Dwight

Is it the middle school teacher who tried to turn her foreign exchange student into a sex slave?

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41444

Toby

Come on.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41445

Meredith

Was it the post office guy who rubbed his penis all over the mail?

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41446

Toby

Guys, it's a really big deal.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41447

Ryan

He's rubbing his neck. He's rubbing his neck!

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41448

Kelly

He's rubbing his neck.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41449

Ryan

He's rubbing his neck.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41450

Andy

Oh, Scranton Strangler!

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41451

Toby

I can neither confirm nor deny this. Let's just say I'll be up to my neck in jury duty.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41452

Michael

That was the worst joke ever.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41453

Toby

Corporate will be sending someone else to take my place for a while.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41454

Michael

Okay. Okay goodbye, goodbye.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41455

Toby

Uh, Holly Flax, she comes from the Nashua branch.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41456

Michael

What? What?

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41457

Toby

Yeah, uh, she'll be starting next week. If you have any questions about the transition, just let me know.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41458

Michael

Hold on, Holly's coming back here?

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41459

Toby

Yeah.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41460

Erin

Guys, who's Holly?

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41461

Michael

That is a great question, Erin. How do you describe somebody who is at the same time an old friend, and was a lover, and was a complicated part of my past, and maybe, just maybe a part of my future?

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41462

Erin

Wow.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41463

Creed

She's one sassy black lady.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41464

Michael

Holly's coming back, everybody, and we have to have a party.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41465

Gabe

I'm not sure the temporary replacement of an H.R. rep really warrants a party.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41466

Michael

You know what, we'll postpone this party until then. This is too important. Cancel this one. Dwight get rid of the tree.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41467

Dwight

Okay.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41468

Michael

Cancel. We're canceling it.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41469

Angela

No, don't throw those out!

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41470

Michael

No, we have to cancel the party.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41471

Angela

We can save that.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41472

Michael

No, no, no, we're gonna get fresh for Holly. Fresh and new.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41473

Andy

I bought these.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41474

Michael

I know.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41475

Andy

These cookies are fine.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41476

Michael

It's not. They're not. Fresh and new. Please let go. Please let go.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41477

Pam

Michael, Michael, wait we don't have, we don't have the budget for another party.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41478

Michael

Well then everybody'll chip in, it'll be fine.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41479

Pam

I honestly think you're idealizing people here again, Michael. I don't think that's gonna happen.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41480

Michael

You know what, I'll pay for it. I'll pay for the party. It doesn't matter. This is way too important. People, Holly's coming back, and this is the most important Christmas party of my life. So back to work.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41481

Michael

Man, I worked hard. I worked so hard for this! I was after corporate constantly. I emailed Joe. I wrote letters. And, know who I end up owing this to is the Scranton strangler. Thank you. Thank you, Scranton strangler. I love you! You just took one more person's breath away.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41482

Michael

We have always had good Christmas parties here, as you know, but they've never been cool. The name is Bond... Santa Bond. I'll have an eggnog, shaken, not stirred. Classic Brosnan. Santa... wonderful tradition. Everybody loves Santa. Everybody can't get enough of the jolly old man. But that is a myth, because you know what, he is not necessarily a big fat guy with a beard. He's not necessarily an old guy. No one knows what the real Santa Claus... God! Ow!

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41483

Angela

Just stop moving your calves so much while you're talking.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41484

Michael

Well, this year's gonna be different. We're gonna have fun. It's not gonna be tacky. It's going to be, you know what, the food is going to be austere. It is not going to be tacky, deli platter food. It's not gonna have a big, fat, gross Santa Claus. It's gonna be cool, sleek Santa.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41485

Angela

Maybe I'll bring my boyfriend. I'll invite him.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41486

Michael

Okay. Sure.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41487

Angela

I mean, unless there's any chance there could be press at this party.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41488

Michael

You never know about the press.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41489

Angela

Well, I only ask because he's a senator.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41490

Michael

Could he help us with some parking tickets?

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41491

Angela

I don't think that's appropriate.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41492

Michael

Well, then he's not a senator.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41493

Angela

Yes, he is.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41494

Michael

Okay.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41495

Jim

Hey.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41496

Pam

Hey.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41497

Jim

We still doing the gifts today? I mean, it is the Christmas party. Well, the classy Christmas party.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41498

Pam

Yes. But don't get too excited, 'cause I didn't have a lot of time this year.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41499

Jim

Me neither. Whew.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41500

Pam

Okay.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41501

Pam

I've been working forever on Jim's present. He always gives me the best Christmas gifts. He'll take a memory or a private joke, and he'll create something totally unique. I love them. So this year I made him something. A comic book. It stars Jimmy Halpert, a mild-mannered paper Salesman who, while riding his bike through the forest, is bitten by a radioactive bear, becomes 'bear man'. Wreaks havoc on the office. It's really good.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41502

Jim

[A note is on Jim's computer that says, 'It is time. Parking lot at noon.' Jim nods and hands it to Dwight who burns it.]

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41503

Michael

Okay... Oh, no, no, no, no! Fake tree. No, no!

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41504

Pam

No, it has the little...

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41505

Michael

Pam, no, no. Holly's coming from New Hampshire. Somebody from New Hampshire looks at that and thinks it's a burning cross. No, no. I want you to go and get a real tree. Take some money. Thank you.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41506

Bass Player

Hi, I'm looking for Michael Scott.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41507

Michael

Yes, that's me. Come on it.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41508

Michael

There's nothing classier than boring Jazz music. I am here to tell ya. And I made a bit of a judgment call. I hired one musician, because I thought, what's better, to hire an entire quartet for half an hour, or one bassist for the entire day?

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41509

Pam

Hey, uh, any volunteers to come with me to go buy a Christmas tree?

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41510

Kevin

I would, but I don't want to get dirty. There might be girls at the party.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41511

Pam

Why do you always think that girls are gonna be at the party? No one invited girls. It's just us.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41512

Andy

I will help. Although my 'brid', my hybrid, my Prius hybrid, won't fit a tree. Which is ironic, considering how many trees it saves on a daily basis.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41513

Kevin

Yeah.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41514

Andy

I do, however, have a hookup with a dude who has a pickup.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41515

Pam

Oh, do you mean Darryl? That's a great idea. I'll ask him.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41516

Andy

You know Darryl?

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41517

Pam

Yeah. He works here. We all know him.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41518

Andy

I should come along, just 'cause he's my, you know, he's my hookup.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41519

Pam

Cool.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41520

Darryl

Come on, now, Justine, look... Listen, look, I've been planning this, okay? You cannot do this, Justine.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41521

Justine

I'm not doing it! She told me she wants to have Christmas here.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41522

Darryl

She did?

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41523

Justine

Yes. She wants to be around family for Christmas.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41524

Darryl

I don't know... I thought I was enough family for my daughter.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41525

Darryl

Don't come in, I'm busy.

Season 7 · Episode 11 · Line 41526
