Dwight finds half a joint in the office parking lot. He puts on his brown volunteer sheriff deputy uniform. He starts a full investigation to find the culprit. Dwight interviews his coworkers like they are hardened criminals. He even asks Oscar if he has ever "pooped a balloon."

Pam and Jim have a fun moment that turns into a game. They say the same thing at once, so Pam jinxes Jim. Jim cannot speak until he buys Pam a coke. The vending machine is sold out of soda. Jim stays silent for almost the entire work day.

Michael Scott starts to worry about the drug test. He went to an Alicia Keys concert over the weekend. He smoked what he thought were clove cigarettes with some fans. Michael fears he actually smoked marijuana and will fail the test. He tries to cancel the testing, but Dwight says it is the law.

Michael holds a meeting to talk about the dangers of drugs. He uses facts that make no sense to the staff. He asks Jim to tell a sad story about drug use. Jim uses the jinx as an excuse to fake cry. This trick lets him avoid speaking without breaking the rules.

Michael asks Dwight for a huge favor in the bathroom. He needs Dwight’s clean urine to pass his drug test. Dwight is a loyal worker but takes his deputy oath seriously. He eventually gives in and helps Michael cheat. This choice leaves Dwight feeling very guilty.

Dwight resigns from his volunteer sheriff position because he lied. Michael feels bad and gives Dwight a new title at the office. He names Dwight the Honorary Voluntary Corporal of security. Jim finally buys Pam a coke and can talk again. He wonders why Dwight does so much for Michael.
