Needful Crap

Michael joins Holly in the break room, figuring that even though they haven't sold anything yet, they'll just wait until the end of the day. "People get desperate and they're gonna pay anything." Garage sale freakonomics. Holly breaks the news that she needs to go home to Colorado for her dad. Michael, taking it pretty well, asks for how long, and whether he's all right, and whether Holly is, and he continues to understand. He doesn't even look like he wants to cry. "And I want you to come with me," she adds. She says that's a lot to ask of a boyfriend, and works up to what sounds like it's going to be a proposal. Michael, who was looking a little slow on the uptake on that score until now, stops her at the last second: "No, no, no, shhhh...shut it." He gets up and flees, saying, "Nope, nope, nope." Holly, at her desk: "Uh, what?" Michael, in his office: "No, I am not going to be proposed to in the break room! That is not going to be our story. Should have burned this place down when I had a chance."

Kevin is getting so frustrated with Andy and Darryl's freewheeling game play that he decides he wants his money back -- but the mug they stuck the wager cash in is empty. "I am never, ever, playing games with you two again," he declares before storming off. Andy and Darryl are left to look at each other in confusion. Outside, Kevin holds up the cash, proudly saying, "And that is Dallas." Another win for Kevin! That makes, what, three?

Dwight's walking across the warehouse floor with a giant telescope marked $150.00. Jim compliments him on it, but when Dwight sees the "miracle legumes" back on Jim's table, he says he'll take them. "They're probably worthless," Jim says, handing them over. Dwight agrees, and as he walks away, Jim says, "Leave the telescope." In a TH, Dwight talks about his day's journey with its humble beginnings and how it led him to discover what's really of value. "And I can just go buy another telescope."

Michael comes down to the warehouse to find Holly counting the thirteen bucks they've raised today. He's even happier to see that they still have most of their stuff. Holly says she's sorry for putting him on the spot and she's not going to Colorado. Michael invites her to go for a walk. "I want to show you some stuff," she says. Holly smiles like she knows what's coming. She really doesn't.
