Sail Away Without Me

Erin invites Andy out for lunch, but he's still upset about the boat, which his dad never let him sail, smacking his hand off the wheel every time he touched it. "Now I'm the man of the family and we're selling the damn thing." Erin asks when it leaves, and upon finding out it'll be tonight, she says to screw lunch and go for a sail instead. Andy scoffs that it's in Stamford, Connecticut and they'd have to leave right now. So that's what they do.

Dwight is claiming to "Iris" that he's the real power in the company when Jim holds up a note for her. Still using her American accent, Nellie tells him they're picking up a clinking sound, so Dwight's going to have to lose his shirt to keep the buttons from rattling. They giggle as they listen to Dwight strip to his wife-beater, and then when he tries to get back on topic, Jim holds up a second note reading "Now pants!" What's with Jim wanting to get Dwight in his underwear lately?

Angela gets off the phone talking about how exhausted her husband is from the campaign: "Last night he was so tired he just wanted a little Mexican brought in." This is too much for Kevin, who runs away laughing. Oscar, in a TH: "I'm in big trouble." Kevin, in a TH: "Yeah, Oscar's in big trouble." But Oscar seems to have gotten hold of Kevin's personnel file, so maybe Kevin's in trouble too.

Now in his underwear, Dwight fields a question from "Iris" about Dunder Mifflin paper being toxic, which he denounces in an aside as "Gotcha journalism. Well, they are not going to gotch me."

Oscar is showing something damning from Kevin's file to Toby, who says he'll need to send Kevin home pending an investigation. Not cool, Oscar. You know how Toby loves his investigations.

Dwight's getting exercised about "Iris's" accusations, and while Jim hurries out of the room for some reason, Nellie drafts Pam to act as a paper mill foreman from upstate New York. Pam obligingly busts out a harsh Long Island accent as she says their paper's only toxic if it's exposed to oxygen. Jim rushes into the break room in a fake panic, grabbing Dwight and shaking him as he berates him about their plummeting stock prices before ducking back out. "Iris" closes in for the kill, as Dwight fights his own actual panic.

Kevin happily gets off the phone after a summons from Toby, speculating that maybe he's getting a promotion. Oscar says he hopes that's what it is, and Kevin agrees, saying that then he could get his own office and not blow Oscar's secret. "I've been really worried about that." Oscar is left looking guilty, as he should. Kevin's not the one screwing his coworker's husband, after all.
