Vol. 3 · Issue 17Scranton, PA

Here's every line from the night Jan and Michael finally went public at the CFO's house. You'll find the full script from "Cocktails," covering everything from Dwight's structural inspection of David's home to Roy's meltdown at the bar. It's all the awkward small talk and relationship drama in one place.

Scene 01

3 lines
Michael Scott
Can you confirm that the straps are tight?
Dwight Schrute
Yes. But this (pulls at straight jacket) seems to be...
Michael Scott
And now, the chains.

Scene 02

1 line
Michael Scott
A lot of people think that magic camp is just for kids. And that's why so many other people in my class were kids. Self fulfilling prophecy. It's um, it's really for anybody with a dream and a belief in magic and a little extra time after school.

Scene 03

10 lines
Michael Scott
MAGIC MAGIC Magic Magic magic magic... And now, Michael the Magic, will attempt to escape from extreme bondage. (Kevin giggles) Can he do it? I don't see how he can.
Dwight Schrute
I know how. Dislocate his shoulder and slip his arm out from underneath.
Michael Scott
No. No. Everyone, now count down with me. THREE!
Jim Halpert
Sorry, quick thing. Is it true that if you can't get out, you don't want anyone to help you?
Michael Scott
I will get out. Oh yes, I will.
Pam Beesly
So we shouldn't help you, no matter how much you might beg and plead?
Michael Scott
No. Alright, this is getting hot. So let's just do this. Ok, ready? Three, two, one, go. (Michael spits out key, Jim covers it with his foot.)
Michael Scott
AHHHH!
Kevin Malone
Is everything ok, Michael?
Michael Scott
Yes.

Scene 04

1 line
Michael Scott
I cannot tell you how I plan to escape. Other than by using magic. That is the magician's code. Separately, on an unrelated note, if you happen to find a small brass key...

Scene 05

8 lines
Michael Scott
Alright.
Dwight Schrute
(trumpet sounds)
Michael Scott
Ready? Come on guys. Early worm gets the worm.
Jim Halpert
Another worm? Like, are they friends?
Dwight Schrute
It's early bird gets the worm.
Michael Scott
Pam, would you smell my breath?
Pam Beesly
No, no.
Dwight Schrute
Let me smell. (Michael breathes at Dwight) Good, not great.

Scene 06

1 line
Michael Scott
"Michael, you go to parties all the time, why is tonight so special?" Well, tonight is so special because my boss's boss's boss, the CFO, not his initials, common mistake, is having a little shindig for all the managers in the company. And Jan and I are going as a couple. For the first time. So it's kind of our coming out party. Really. And that is why tonight is so special.

Michael Scott
Jimbo, last chance to carpool.
Jim Halpert
Oh no thanks, I think Karen and I will take my car.
Michael Scott
Sure? Might be a good idea.
Jim Halpert
Yeah.
Michael Scott
Go in together, could save some gas, have some fun, long trip.
Jim Halpert
Thanks.
Michael Scott
Play some games?
Jim Halpert
Oh. Um. I think we're good.
Michael Scott
I spy?
Jim Halpert
Yeah.

Scene 08

1 line
Jim Halpert
Why don't I wanna go? Didn't expect to need a reason, so let me think here. Um. I don't know any of these people. It's an obligation. I don't like talking paper in my free time, or in my work time. And, did I use the word pointless?

Scene 09

26 lines
Dwight Schrute
Thanks for inviting me along.
Michael Scott
Oh, sure. Really didn't give it any thought. Wait, should you be going? (phone rings) Heh-woh you.
Jan Levinson
Michael?
Michael Scott
Hey, Buttercup.
Jan Levinson
Hi.
Michael Scott
I am on my way. I should be there in about 15...
Jan Levinson
Let's just blow this party off.
Michael Scott
That's what she said.
Jan Levinson
Am I on speaker phone?
Michael Scott
Uh, yes you are.
Jan Levinson
Is anybody else in the...
Dwight Schrute
Hello, Jan.
Jan Levinson
Hi, Dwight. Ok, Michael, take me off speaker phone.
Michael Scott
No problem. (doesn't turn off speakerphone)
Jan Levinson
Ok. Let's just go to a motel...
Michael Scott
Ok.
Jan Levinson
...and just like rip into each other like we did on that black sand beach in Jamaica.
Michael Scott
Ok. Jan. Jan? This party is actually a really big step for us. So, I...
Jan Levinson
Still on speaker?
Michael Scott
Ummm... I don't know.
Jan Levinson
Are camera's there?
Michael Scott
Maybe.
Jan Levinson
See you soon.
Michael Scott
Ok.
Dwight Schrute
Talk to you later, Jan.
Michael Scott
Alright. Bye.

Scene 10

Pam Beesly
Hey, Michael left early, so a bunch of us are going to go to Poor Richard's for happy hour. You should come.
Roy Anderson
I can't. My brother, he just unloaded the jet ski's and kinda took a bath, so... we're going to go get hammered.
Pam Beesly
Ok, well, we're going to a bar. Hey. You have to come to stuff with me. I'm serious! If you're going to be my boyfriend, you have to do boyfriend things.
Roy Anderson
Ok.

Scene 11

1 line
Pam Beesly
I have decided that I'm going to be more honest. I'm going to tell people what I want. Directly. So, look out world, cause ol' Pammy is getting what she wants. And, don't call me Pammy.

Scene 12

11 lines
Michael Scott
Beauty. Thank you sir!
Dwight Schrute
Salad.
Michael Scott
Thank you.
Dwight Schrute
You dressed exactly like the servants.
Michael Scott
Shut up. Ok, change shirts with me.
Dwight Schrute
Wait. I don't think yours will fit me.
Michael Scott
I don't care. Oh, wow. Here. Don't put my jacket. Don't give me that.
Dwight Schrute
That would have been really embarrassing.
Michael Scott
Yes.
Dwight Schrute
Crisis averted.
Michael Scott
Ok.

Michael Scott
Hi.

Scene 15

1 line
Michael Scott
Actually, it's polite to arrive early. And smart. Only really good friends show up early. Ergo de facto. Go to a party really early. Become a really good friend.

Scene 16

5 lines
Michael Scott
Oh, um, potato salad.
Dwight Schrute
It's from both of us.
Michael Scott
No, it's not.
Rachel
Wonderful, let's, ah, see where we can put this. Ok.
Michael Scott
Oh, you probably want to leave the cover on until the guests get here.

Pam Beesly
Kevin, you and Stacy set a date yet?

Yeah.
Kelly Kapoor
Oh my God, when is it?
Kevin Malone
It's complicated. I would appreciate some space on this.
Roy Anderson
Hey.
Pam Beesly
Hey. You made it.
Roy Anderson
You said it was important, so... How's it going?
Kenny
What's up, Pam.
Pam Beesly
Hey Kenny, sorry about the jet skis.
Roy Anderson
You guys, uh, want a round, on me?
Everyone
Yeah.
Roy Anderson
Yeah? Get you a drink.

Thanks man.

Dwight Schrute
Oh, you know that line on the top of the shrimp? That's feces.

Scene 20

7 lines
Michael Scott
What are you looking for? You bring dip?
Jan Levinson
I'm sure that it's catered. I need you to sign these, Michael. It's a waver of some of your rights. You should read it carefully. It releases the company in the event that our relationship, in your opinion or in reality, interferes with work. You get a copy, I get a copy, and a third copy goes to HR.
Michael Scott
Awesome. I'm going to frame mine. I could frame yours too.
Jan Levinson
You realize this is a legal document that says you can't sue the company.
Michael Scott
Over our love.
Jan Levinson
I've never told you that I love you.
Michael Scott
You don't have to, Jan. This contract says it all.

Scene 21

1 line
Jan Levinson
I am taking a calculated risk. What's the upside? I overcome my nausea, fall deeply in love, babies, normalcy, no more self loathing. Downside? I, uh, date Michael Scott publicly and collapse in on myself like a dying star.

Scene 22

2 lines
Jan Levinson
What's this over the "i"?
Michael Scott
It's a heart.

Scene 23

1 line
Jan Levinson
Why is this so hard? That's what she said. Oh my God. What am I saying?

Scene 24

2 lines
Michael Scott
I love this woman!
Jan Levinson
Oh, no. Michael, please. Michael, please.

Scene 25

Dwight Schrute
Do you ever watch Battlestar Galactica?
Dan Gore
No.
Dwight Schrute
No? Then you are an idiot.

Rachel
Hello Michael.
Michael Scott
Rachel. Boy, you clean up good. Place looks great with all the lights on. And everything. Actually looks bigger with people in it. It's weird. So...
David Wallace
Jan, glad you could make it.
Jan Levinson
Of course, of course, David. Do you remember Michael Scott?
David Wallace
Of course I do.
Jan Levinson
From the Scranton Branch.
Michael Scott
Jan and I are lovers. It feels so good to finally say that out loud.
Jan Levinson
David, can I, um, speak to you privately for just a moment, please.
Rachel
Excuse me.
Michael Scott
Ok.

(looks at beers) Oh. (Starts to walk away, turns around) No. Actually, one of these is supposed to be a lite.
Bartender
Oh, sorry.

Scene 28

22 lines
Man
So did the merger go smoothly, or?
Michael Scott
It did. Like butter. Mike Myers, SNL. You should ask Karen, she was one of them.
Karen Filippelli
I'm the only one left. Everyone else was either fired or quit. And there is one in Anger Management.
Michael Scott
Yeah, but you're great now, right? We're all great. Aren't we great?
Jan Levinson
We're good. (Michael tries to kiss Jan) Michael, stop. Please stop that, ok?
Rachel
Can I get anyone anything, or?
Michael Scott
I could go for an appeteaser.
Jan Levinson
Martini please.
Michael Scott
Bagel bites or something.
Karen Filippelli
Rachel, your house is beautiful.
Rachel
Thank you.
Dwight Schrute
What's the square footage?
David Wallace
About 5,000.
Dwight Schrute
Does that include the garage?
Michael Scott
Dwight, wow. That's not appropriate.
Dwight Schrute
I'm just...
David Wallace
I don't know
Dwight Schrute
It's a common question.
Michael Scott
David, how much did this house cost?
Dwight Schrute
These old colonials are great, when they're sound. I'd love to take a look around.
Rachel
I'll show you around.
Dwight Schrute
Cool, let's start with the banisters.

Hey, do you see that guy behind you in the blue blazer against the wall?

That's Drake. And just so you know, I don't want to be weird or anything, but we use to date.
Jim Halpert
Oh, ok. Cool. Thanks for telling me.
Karen Filippelli
And it didn't end well.
Jim Halpert
Gotcha. Alright.

Ryan Howard
I think I heard it on Roy's side.
Kevin Malone
No, it is here.
Ryan Howard
(tapping Meredith and Kelly's hands) Not here. Not here. Not here. Not here.
Kevin Malone
Good thing you didn't listen to me.
Ryan Howard
Yeah, close one.
Roy Anderson
(points at one of Stanley's hands and one of Pam's) Not here. Not here. It's either here or here. (Stares at Pam) Not here. (Points at Stanley's hand).
Kenny
YES!
Pam Beesly
Nice job.
Roy Anderson
I can read you like a book.
Pam Beesly
Oh yeah?
Roy Anderson
You can't keep anything from me.

Well, it was nice meeting you guys. Take care.

Jim Halpert
Oh. Hadn't noticed.
Karen Filippelli
Really? I thought it was so obvious. I'm glad it didn't make you uncomfortable.
Jim Halpert
No, it was before I knew you so, its fine.

You and the misses should join us at Sandals Jamaica next Christmas.
Jan Levinson
I, Michael, I think David probably wants to spend Christmas here with his family.
Michael Scott
Oh yeah, they don't allow kids at Sandals. They are persona non gratis... there. But it's fun. It's an awesome place. You would not believe how low this girl can limbo.
Jim Halpert
Oh.
Michael Scott
Crazy.
Jan Levinson
I'm sorry. You're just going to have to excuse us for just a couple minutes.
Michael Scott
Ok. Excuse me. What's going on? What is it?
Jan Levinson
Sorry. Michael, come here. Just, just, just, just. (kisses Michael)
Michael Scott
What are you doing?
Jan Levinson
Don't you know what I'm doing?

Roy Anderson
What?
Pam Beesly
I want us to make it. I want a fresh start.
Roy Anderson
That's awesome. That's what I want.
Pam Beesly
Oh ok, but in order for us to make it, there can't be any secrets between us.
Roy Anderson
I didn't do anything. Ask anyone, I totally could have and I didn't at all.
Pam Beesly
Just listen. Remember that casino night about a month before we were supposed to get married? I kissed Jim.
Roy Anderson
What?
Pam Beesly
He told me how he felt and I guess I had feelings too, and we kissed.
Roy Anderson
Jim came on to you?
Pam Beesly
Just listen.
Roy Anderson
No, I am listening! That's the problem I am listening!
Pam Beesly
Don't yell!

Michael Scott
Our first fight. If this is about what happened in the bathroom, there was no place to cuddle...
Jan Levinson
I feel sick.
Michael Scott
You didn't have any of the potato salad did you?
Jan Levinson
No, we were good when we were just running around, you know, in secret. It was wrong and it was exciting. Maybe it was a mistake to take it public.
Michael Scott
Well, if that's the way you feel, my lady, then you have hurt me greatly.
Jan Levinson
Please don't cry.
Michael Scott
I'm not going to cry. I feel like it but I am not going to. Why don't you just take your stupid love contract and tear it up into a million little pieces.
Jan Levinson
It was never a love contract, Michael and besides, I have already given a copy to David and it would be just as embarrassing to get it back as I was handing it to him.
Michael Scott
I want the house, Jan. I want the picket fence. I want the ketchup fights and the tickling, and the giggling.
Jan Levinson
I didn't mean it. I was...
Michael Scott
Whatever.
Jan Levinson
Tired. I'm tired. And I didn't eat enough. And, and, that's all. That was it.
Michael Scott
That's all, you didn't mean it?
Jan Levinson
That's all. I didn't mean it. That's all. I'm just saying I didn't mean it.
Michael Scott
I love you, Jan.
Jan Levinson
Ok.
Dwight Schrute
Don't break up you guys, you're great together.
