Scranton Horror Story
In a hurry? Read the recaplet for a nutshell description!

Apparently Andy is reserving right of approval for all Halloween costumes this year. For example, Angela is a cat again, and Stanley is a chef, though not Chef from South Park, as Andy guesses. Jokes like that don't make us not miss Michael Scott, you know, show. Andy talking-heads about the rules on this year's costumes: "Don't be offensive, don't be cliché, and don't take the first two rules too seriously." He vetoes Kevin's Rise of the Planet of the Apes for dropping a spoiler, and also Phyllis's tiny baby-doll outfit, because, well, "Kevin has a gorilla suit you could borrow." Kelly and Meredith both want to be Kate Middleton, which Kelly says she's more into, until Meredith shows her a cell phone video of herself hollering at the Royal Wedding party (as opposed to at her sister's funeral, which she'd said was the same weekend). Meredith THs about her interest in the royal story. "Warms my heart, thinking about them two kids. Doin' it." Saw that one coming all the way from Westminster Abbey.

On the actual day, Andy comes in dressed as a construction worker and sneaks through the wall of fake cobwebs Erin (dressed as Wendy from Wendy's) has playfully draped across his door. Erin THs about the best part of dating coworkers: "After you're done dating, you still get to work together. Every single day."

Kevin and Darryl enter wearing matching Miami Heat jerseys over their shirts, and they've apparently drafted Jim into being Chris Bosh. Would that be funny if I followed sports?

Speaking of stuff I don't follow, Dwight comes in wearing a horrifying, spiky, dreadlocked, boob-tastic costume that nobody recognizes. "Has no one here heard of Kerrigan from Starcraft? Queen of blades?" No one there has, and no one has on my side of the screen, either. Dwight blames this Toby, who THs that he tells Dwight every year that he can't bring in weapons. Montage of Toby disarming Dwight as Freddy Krueger, as Pinhead, and as Jigsaw, and finally, today, Kerrigan, removing the sword-wielding tentacles from Dwight's back as he entered the building. Toby also adds that Dwight threatens to kill him when he gets his weapons back, but Toby always survives until Thanksgiving. "I'm a lucky turkey." These are the jokes, people.

Andy comes out to the bullpen, not entirely impressed with everyone's outfits. He tells us about two texts he got: one from Broccoli Rob saying "Boo," which scared him, and another one from Robert California, saying, "Looking forward to Halloween party. Expectations are high." Which scared the shit out of him.
