00) - That was really fun last night.
- Yeah, it was nice.
I'm actually thinking about getting my own set of put-put golf clubs.
That would be great.
You need that.
- Really? - Yeah, it would help.
- I let her win.
- No, he didn't.
So When can I see you again? Tonight.
I'm free tonight.
Is that too eager? I don't care.
I'm free tonight.
Wait.
Tonight's no good.
Because I am busy taking you out.
I just remembered.
I can't tonight.
- Why? - I'm going out with you.
Wait a second.

Tonight's - No more.
- All right.
Too many times.
It's all good.
All right, so good.
So have a nice day.
- Thank you.
You too.
- You're welcome.
In my opinion, the third date is traditionally the one where You have sex.
Does Holly feel that way? I don't know.
I will probably find out tonight.
If she starts having sex with me, I'll know for sure.
That's for you.
And I am right in assuming that Dwight is short for D-Money.
Cause that's what I wrote on your Save-The-Date.
You set a date? J-Money.
Or should it be T-Money, for Tuna? Receptionist-Money.
K-Money.
- What are you making? - A knife.
- You're making a knife with a knife? - You got a better way? You wanna talk about it? About what? You know I know.
You know they know.
I know none of that.
And if I did, you'd be the last to know.
The mall could be fun.
We could go to the food court, get different foods.
You could get chicken teriyaki.
I could get a hot dog.
Some of what we order depends on if we're having sex after.
Elephant in the room.
Are we, do you think? Do you think we're gonna have sex tonight? Hell yeah.
OK, so we do the restaurant thing, and then Then we can do - We'll just do the restaurant first.
- Yeah, that's good.
Probably get soup or something light.
She introduced me to so many things.
Pasteurized milk, sheets, monotheism.
Presents on your birthday, preventative medicine.
- It's nice to learn new things.
- I was talking to myself.
Just I don't get it.
What don't you get? Why is she marrying Andy? Angela's not really a risk taker.
And Andy's not really a risk.
That's really fattening.
No, it's lettuce.
- It's time to go? - No.
Reservations are at 8:00, so we've got like an hour 45 minutes.
I'm a crazy 8.
- I'm crazy.
- You're crazy.
Go crazy.
I forgot my keys.
- Do you need'em? - Yeah, let's go grab them.
All right.
- After vous.
- Thank vous.
What? I didn't forget my keys.
I just didn't want to make out with you in front of the cameras.
Do you think they can hear us? Not if we turn these dials all the way down.
Now they can't hear us at all.
- Good.
- We're totally alone.
Yes, that's correct.
I need to cancel checks from 10,001 to 90,000.
Great, they stole my laptop.
Well, they stole my surge protector.
How does that even compare? Oscar, I'm now going to be prone to surges.
Oh my god.
What happened? - We were robbed last night.
- Bravo, Watson.
Looks like a classic 7-men job.
Security tapes were stolen.
Motives, financial.
Or possibly vintage HP computer collectors.
Hank down at security had clocked out.
And that is all we have.
- Can I talk to you for a second? - Yeah.
That wasn't us, right? You remembered to lock the doors? No, did you? Michael, I think this is our fault.
- Oh, no.
- No, my god! My god.
So much for sex without consequences.
You are such a dork! Shots! So apparently Pam went out last night and accidentally called my work phone at 3:00 in the morning.
- So - I'm not drunk.
I'm on minute six of this message.
OK, I do not sound like that.
- You can take the girl out of Philly.
- Scranton.
The future mother of my children.
I never felt safe here.
You're always safe with me.
I'm a very good screamer.
And one day, we're gonna move to Disney's celebration village in Florida and leave all of this behind.
I would very much like that.
Consider yourself at home.
Get in.
Where are we going? I know she loves me.
I am sure of it.
She practically told me so.
Then you need to give her an ultimatum.
Tell her she needs to make a choice.
You or Andy.
If she picks you, great.
If not, you can move on.
Are you sure that's gonna work? It did when Bob said I had to stop talking to my sister on the phone so much.
Wait, this isn't our floor Dwight.
How's everyone doing? My door is always open If anyone wants to talk.
I don't want to talk.
I want my laptop back.
Nobody steals from Creed Bratton and gets away with it.
The last person to do this disappeared.
His name? Creed Bratton.
We're gonna make everything all right.
All right? Conference room, 15 minutes.
To recoup their losses, I am planning a little charity auction.
Where people from all over Scranton can come and bid on our goods and services.
I'm calling it Crime Aid.
It's like Farm Aid.
But instead of farms fighting against aids, it is us fighting against our own poverty.
- I think it's a fun idea.
- Thank you.
We could auction off things that we do for each other, like cleaning or tennis lessons.
- My sorority did it all the time.
- I'm gonna have to stop you right here.
Was this a sorority that you didn't get into a real sorority so you had to kind of form your own? - Move on, Michael.
- OK.
Come on! Let's have an auction.
Let's do this.
We'll auction off people, like in the olden days.
So, in order to recoup the value of items we liked, we have to spend more money on things we don't want.
Who would ever come to this? I don't know.
It could be any number of people.
It could be a pedestrian.
It could be an old person.
It could be a lookie-loo.
Or it could be a Bruce Springsteen fan what? Who said that? I did.
Why did I say that? I think you know why I said that.
I think it is very apparent.
I think it goes without saying.
Bear with me.
There's a point there.
But what is the point? I don't understand what he's saying.
It seems a little shady.
It seems a little foggy.
Well, it's not a little foggy.
- There's really something going on.
- Do you need us for any of this? Do I? Michael scored the big ticket item.
Springsteen tickets.
The boss scored the boss.
I think that's pretty boss.
He knows how to get things.
He got me.
Sorry.
Twice.
Right? Listen to me close cause I'm only gonna say this once.
You either break off your engagement with that singing buffoon, apologize, and then date me.
Or you can say goodbye to this.
I think you have me confused with another person.
I said I was only gonna say it once.
You have until 6:14 P.
M.
- 6:14.
- I heard you.
Pump it up! Pump up the volume.
Thank you very much, everybody.
Thank you, Mr.
Springsteen.
And welcome to C.
R.
I.
M.
E.
-A.
I.

Crime Reduces Innocence Makes Everyone Angry, I Declare.
It is not known how many office robberies occur every second, cause there is no wikipedia entry for office robbery statistics.
However, tonight, its victims are standing together and standing strong in the form of song, Cooking lessons and hugs.
Really, Phyllis? You're auctioning a hug? OK, so with no further ado, lights, camera, auction! Take it away, Bruce! Mike gave me a list of his top ten Springsteen songs.
Huey Lewis and the News.
One was Tracy Chapman, Fast Car.
And my personal favorite, Short People.

Now what? Now you move on.
OK, fine.
I've moved on.
Now how do I get her back? Dwight, I don't think you do it.
I think you've got your answer.
Wait, that's it? That's your advice? I thought you had some kind of big master plan.
I just think we all deserve to be with someone who wants to be with us.
I get it.
You're trying to secure your place as head of the party-planning committee.
You're just being selfish.
And you slap like a girl.
