This week’s episode felt like filler, especially with the whole “green” theme that NBC-Universal has going this month. Michael’s trip out into the forest was pretty comical, but I thought Dwight was really in his element this week and he had several great lines throughout the episode:
“They would call me the ‘Overkill Killer.’”
“It would be better if you were unconscious.” (as he hits Michael in the head with his shoe)
“Lunch.” (as he grabs a few eggs from a bird’s nest)
“Nothing to worry about. Just watching Michael throught the scope. Safety is…(click)…on.” (as he points a rifle at Michael)
Jim’s foray as the substitute regional manager revolved around his attempt to combine multiple birthdays into one big party. I had a feeling this wasn’t going to go over to well. It doesn’t matter what office you’re talking about, people like to have their own celebration on their birthday. I though Jim and Creed’s exchange about the peach cobbler was the highlight of this storyline. In general, Creed is underutilized on the show.
The tag at the end featured a funny conversation between Jim and Michael about Jim’s attempt to combine birthdays, which devolved into a “that’s what she said” competition. It was actually kind of a nice moment between the two.
