Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48160

Well today's your lucky day. I have opened in this very office building Dwight Schrute's Gym for Muscles. You wanna take a look?
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48161

Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48162

Dwight
Your path from obesity begins right here!
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48163
-
Darryl
I've been meaning to join a gym. For my health. I used to say I wanted to live long enough to see a black President. I didn't realize how easy that would be. So now I want to live long enough to see a really, really gay President. Or a supermodel President. I want to see all the different kinds of Presidents.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48164
-
Dwight
Obese people in my office are a drain on resources. Chairs wear out faster, it takes more Freon to keep them cool, they flush the toilets more often, plus their massive BMs bust the rivets on my pipes. But a gym turns fat into cash.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48165
-
Andy
Alright! The DM Express is pulling out.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48166

Hoo-hoo!
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48173
-
Andy
Reception. Your classic one-man operation.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48174
-
Erin
Although I was watching a movie and Merryl Streep had two secretaries.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48175
-
Andy
I was watching a movie and a bunch of apes took over San Francisco. Just saying.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48176
-
Robert
Two secretaries could convey a sense of importance and success to our clients. Certainly worth exploring; wouldn't you agree Andy?
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48177
-
Andy
I'll explore exploring it.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48178
-
Robert
Good. It seems like you have this under control. So I'll just duck out and run the company for a while.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48179
-
Andy
Ok uh next stop on the tour sales. Here we go. Station stop Jim Halpert. Oh boy our resident truth teller. Alright have at it. Let 'er rip. What do you hate about this place?
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48180
-
Jim
Well it's sales. So you have to be able to live in the world of rejection.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48181
-
Dwight
Maybe you do. Hi. I'm Dwight. Sales is really not so hard ok? It's paper. We have it and they want it so bad they are willing to pay for it.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48182
-
Andy
Jim?
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48183
-
Jim
Well it's not that easy. It's kind of sometimes difficult.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48184
-
Dwight
It's the second easiest job in the world. Being a mom.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48185
-
Susan
I love shopping and sales is just the other side of that.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48186
-
Dwight
That is true.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48187
-
Andy
You know if you joined our sales department you would be working very closely with our department head Mr. Dwight Schrute.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48188
-
Dwight
That's me.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48189
-
Andy
Dwight why don't you tell Susan about some of your hobbies. Survival skills. Ranking of animals.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48190
-
Dwight
Maybe over a beer after she's closed her first sale.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48191
-
Susan
Well make that a red wine and I'll tell you my animal rankings.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48192
-
Andy
Oh how am I supposed to pull this off?. The entire office is being nice to her than they've ever been to me. What I wouldn't give for one of Phyllis' classic room clearing farts right now.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48193
-
Dwight
Ready? What do you think?
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48194
-
Darryl
Um no. This is not a gym. This is like a scene out of Saw 5.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48195
-
Dwight
You haven't even looked around yet. Look. Gravel bucket squat yoke Right? Dedicated phone book ripping station. You ever cut tin before? Five yards in and your forearms will be on fire. Plus I will buy the tin back from you that you cut for two cents a yard. Now let's go over membership. I'm going to need the first month's and the last month's up front. $49 per month. But every third month is $59 a month. But the fourth month is a discount month at $19 per month'
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48196
-
Darryl
Obviously you know how a gym works. So you know I'm not going to pay money for this. You want people to come to your gym? Make a real gym.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48197
-
Dwight
Darryl...
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48198
-
Darryl
Make a real gym.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48199
-
Susan
I was thinking accounting might be a good fit because I really clicked with Oscar and I do have some experience in bookkeeping.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48200
-
Andy
But we already have a surplus of accountants as it is.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48201
-
Susan
Uh I could work in customer service. HR even.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48202
-
Andy
Those are fully staffed as well.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48203
-
Robert
Are you telling me that there's no one in this entire office that could use an extra pair of hands?
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48204
-
Andy
Yes.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48205
-
Robert
I am the CEO and I am telling an employee of mine what to do.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48206
-
Andy
Let me beat around the bush for a second. Our chairman of the board has some very strong feelings about-
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48207
-
Susan
Robert this is very uncomfortable. Obviously there's no place for me here. So thank you for trying. Why don't we just let it go.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48208
-
Robert
No. Absolutely not. Andrew there must be something you can do. Think.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48209
-
Andy
There are lots of considerations.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48210
-
Robert
I would be eternally grateful. It's not a bad thing to have the CEO owe you one.
Season 8 · Episode 9 · Line 48211
