The Convict

Andy makes his move on "Pam-a-lam-a-ding-dong," as he calls her: "Listen, you're cute. There is no getting around it. So, I don't know if you like country music, but I was thinking one of these days we could drive out to a field, crank up some tunes, smoke a few Macanudos, maybe even toss a disk around. At-whay o-day ou-yay ink-thay, Am-pay?" And with that, he has taken her breath away, although not in the way he thinks. As Andy leaves Pam to think about it, he tips Jim a wink, which Pam doesn't miss. Jim slowly turns around in his chair, looking at nothing, until he suddenly, naughtily, cuts his eyes at her. You fucker, say hers. But in a TH, she's got one of her biggest smiles ever as she says, "Wow. That was...wow." Is she really at the point where any attention from Jim is good?

Michael comes out of his office, throwing his coat on and happily saying that he's going to do what they want and make work more like prison, starting with an hour of outdoor time. "Let's go!"

Cut to everyone huddled in their coats in the parking lot. He offers to let them "pump iron" with a 2½ pound dumbbell from his trunk. Everyone goes back inside instead.

Later, in the break room, Michael is for some reason trying to get a decent picture on the TV. He tries to tweak Martin about TV in the clink, which Martin says is "bigger than that one." Kevin suppresses a snicker worse than anything has ever been suppressed in the entire history of suppression.. And Michael THs, "This office is the American dream, and they would rather be in the hole."

Jim isn't done with Andy. Can Andy play guitar? Andy says he can play banjo. "But can you sing in a sexy high falsetto voice?" Andy can, and he's off to get his banjo from his car. Playing the banjo is one thing. Driving around with a banjo in the event of a hoedown breaking out is quite another. Karen arrives at Jim's desk, asking what's going on. Jim's happy to tell Karen that he's sending Andy to "all the women in the office" with bad intel. Note the bad intel that Jim just gave Karen, by the way. Karen wants in on Pam, but Jim wants to think of someone else for her to mess with. Of course he does. You don't crap where you eat, after all. Or, more specifically, you don't get back at the girl who rejected you with the girl you're dating in order to distance yourself from the girl who rejected you. Everybody knows that.
