In this episode, Michael and Dwight go to New York City to party with Ryan. Back in Scranton, the rest of the office works late, only to get locked in the parking lot. This page includes the full script and all the lines from The Office episode "Night Out".
Pam Beesly:What's wrong Michael?
Michael Scott:I got gum in my hair.
Pam Beesly:You do.
Michael Scott:This just stinks. Don't touch it, please don't touch it.
Dwight Schrute:You've got a ton of dandruff.
Michael Scott:OK, let me be.
Jim Halpert:How'd you get gum in your hair?
Michael Scott:I was walking in and I noticed something shinny under Stanley's car and I got under to see what it was and I messed up my hair, all for a stupid piece of tinfoil.
Jim Halpert:But best case scenario, you thought it was a quarter.
Michael Scott:Kill me... right now.
Pam Beesly:We have peanut butter in the kitchen.
Michael Scott:I don't feel like peanut butter. Get me an ice cream sandwich.
Jim Halpert:Nope. Not for you it's for your hair, and it is 9 am.
Pam Beesly:No Dwight, not the good peanut butter. People are going to get mad.
Michael Scott:Hey, hey, hey. This is my hair we're talking about.
Michael Scott:Smells good.
Dwight Schrute:Taste good too.
Michael Scott:Oh don't. That's disgusting.
Dwight Schrute:Wow! Lot of calories.
Michael Scott:Well just don't leave it on too long. Keep massaging please. Ah yeah, that's nice.
Dwight Schrute:Hey Michael, how was your date last night?
Michael Scott:(sighs)
Michael Scott:I will be honest; the dating has not been going well. Look, men are visual creatures. We crave beauty, like a piece of fine art by any number of renowned artists, or an arty photograph of Cindy Crawford nude... that, but the women I'm getting fixed up with are, egh! Not that they aren't nice, or that have great personalities, they just... They just lack a certain... Crawfordness.
Oscar Martinez:I am livid, Absolutely livid.
Angela Martin:It's ridiculous.
Ryan Howard:Yes, I'm having the Scranton branch come in on one Saturday so they can re-enter sales that they made on the phone as sales that were made by the website which they should have done in the first place, if the website had been working.
Ryan Howard:My favorite branch. How's everybody doing?
Jim Halpert:Hey man, you mind if I run something by you?
Ryan Howard:Love it. Go.
Jim Halpert:Well, I kinda feel like what we have going for us is our customer service, and no matter how we change this up, I don't know that a website's going to be able to replace that.
Ryan Howard:I can tell you thought about this a lot, I appreciate that.
Jim Halpert:Thanks.
Ryan Howard:David Wallace does too. You told him all about this at the Christmas party, right?
Jim Halpert:Did I? I don't...
Ryan Howard:You did. Yeah.
Jim Halpert:Hmm.
Ryan Howard:Watch your back Jim. I'm just kidding.
Michael Scott:Ladies and Gentlemen, may I have your attention please. I know that a lot of you are very angry with Ryan because he is the reason we all have to come in tomorrow, however, I swear to God, If any of you hurts him in any way emotionally or taunts him or makes fun of his height or his half beard or...
Ryan Howard:Ok thanks Michael.
Michael Scott:Yeah.
Ryan Howard:I'm here today to do some creative problem solving about Dunder Mifflin Infinity and field your questions.
Dwight Schrute:Question.
Ryan Howard:Dwight.
Dwight Schrute:Why am I being forced to come in tomorrow and pretend that a website made sales that I made?
Ryan Howard:This is a temporary measure to increase the legitimacy of the site.
Stanley Hudson:I don't like when my clients call me to help them use the website, I'm not seeing commissions on that.
Ryan Howard:I hear you Stanley, that is a great observation. Problems like that will not happen when we launch Dunder Mifflin Infinity 2 point O.
Stanley Hudson:When will that be?
Ryan Howard:TBD. Phyllis?
Phyllis Vance:Did the police solve the problem with the...
Ryan Howard:Yes, yes they did, yes they did.
Ryan Howard:Yes, the social networking feature of the Dunder Mifflin Infinity website was infiltrated by sexual predators.
Dwight Schrute:I don't understand why our website has to have social networking at all.
Jim Halpert:Yeah, I actually have to agree with Dwight on that one.
Ryan Howard:It's all about creating a one stop shop consumer experience, alright? You're chatting with your friends, you're talking about the latest music, about the election; all of it is happening in our virtual paper store.
Jim Halpert:And then an older gentleman asked you "Boxers or briefs?"
Creed Bratton:I don't get the big fuss here, I like the site.
Kelly Kapoor:If I'd have created a website with as many problems, I'd kill myself.
Ryan Howard:Do you have a question Kelly?
Kelly Kapoor:Yeah I have a lot of questions. Number one, how dare you?
Michael Scott:(slow clapping) Ryan has done a very good job, and I am not applauding sarcastically. Think about it, a month ago nobody would go on this site because we were worried about getting molested, or losing our identity, having it stolen. But now, at a time TDB, all of the problems will be in the past. Ya done good kid, ya done good.
Michael Scott:Well it has been nice seeing you again my friend.
Ryan Howard:You too.
Michael Scott:Oh Ryan, I need a girlfriend so bad. (hugs Ryan)
Ryan Howard:Michael let me go. Let me go Michael.
Michael Scott:Argh. Alright. Do you know any girls in New York you might want to hook me up with? Some that might be interested in a guy like me.
Ryan Howard:Na.
Michael Scott:Na?
Ryan Howard:Sorry man.
Michael Scott:Well you tried.
Ryan Howard:But seriously, you should see the girls I meet at clubs in the city.
Michael Scott:Yeah.
Ryan Howard:Unreal.
Michael Scott:They sound great.
Ryan Howard:Bye everyone. Stay real Scranton, alright. Peace.
Michael Scott:Would you have sex with Meredith?
Jim Halpert:What?
Michael Scott:Do you think she'd keep it quiet?
Jim Halpert:I'm gonna go to my desk.
Michael Scott:Jim, it's not the horniness, ok it's the loneliness that...
Jim Halpert:I know.
Michael Scott:Let's go to New York. We'll go clubbing with Ryan.
Jim Halpert:I can't.
Michael Scott:Yes you can, you're single, I'm single. It'll be awesome.
Jim Halpert:I'm not single.
Michael Scott:Who you dating?
Jim Halpert:Pam.
Michael Scott:That's still going on?
Michael Scott:Ok, Dwight grab your stuff, we're going to New York to party with Ryan and to meet girls.
Dwight Schrute:Yeah!
Andy Bernard:Oh yes! Count me in dudes. I am in some serious need of some bro' time. Old ball and chain's been a lot more chain than ball lately if you know what I'm saying.
Angela Martin:I'm right here.
Dwight Schrute:No, singles only, singles only. Also three is unlucky. Curse of three.
Michael Scott:Sorry Andy. Cannot take any chances on curses, not tonight. Let's go. Everybody, I will see you tomorrow, Saturday morning, probably wearing the same clothes that I am wearing right now, If you catch my drift.
Angela Martin:We get it.
Michael Scott:I am going to go get laid. Goodbye.
Dwight Schrute:(laughs) With sex!
Michael Scott:That's... I, I think that...
Jim Halpert:You know what? If we all stayed a couple of hours late tonight without Michael distracting us, we wouldn't have to come in at all tomorrow.
Jim Halpert:So I caught everyone before they left and I told them my idea, and they loved it. Because this is a group that respects good ideas... the one time a year they hear one.
Michael Scott:Ryan's assistant told us that he would be at this club this evening. It is called Prerogative.
Michael Scott:Place is packed.
Dwight Schrute:Fire hazard.
Michael Scott:Packed with beautiful babies. Swingers. Classic. John Favreau, tall guy from DodgeBall.
Dwight Schrute:Women look like white slaves.
Michael Scott:No, they're just hotties.
Ryan Howard:I don't know man, when you think about it, Cabo's really the third world. I don't go to a place like that to see more poverty you know. You go there to get some glamour.
Michael Scott:Hey.
Ryan Howard:Michael.
Michael Scott:Hey!
Ryan Howard:What are you doing here?
Michael Scott:Well you know, just taking you up on your offer to party, so tada.
Ryan Howard:That is so awesome man!
Michael Scott:Alright!
Ryan Howard:And you brought this guy!
Michael Scott:Yeah.
Ryan Howard:Aww!
Michael Scott:Ryan, it's Michael and Dwight.
Ryan Howard:I know it's you guys.
Michael Scott:Ok.
Ryan Howard:I'm so psyched you're here!
Michael Scott:Well.
Ryan Howard:Woooo!
Michael Scott:Alright!
Ryan Howard:Let's get a drink.
Michael Scott:Let's do it!
Jim Halpert:Thanks a lot guys, Good job.
Kevin Malone:Later.
Jim Halpert:Nice job everybody. Great work.
Stanley Hudson:Did you not tell the security guard we were working late?
Jim Halpert:Nope. I didn't, but let's go inside and I can call him right now.
Pam Beesly:You can't, I locked the office from the inside when we left.
Stanley Hudson:Perfect, you guys worked together on this one. If I'm not in my bath with a glass of red wine in an hour, you're both dead.
Pam Beesly:There is a master key and a spare key for the office. Dwight has them both. When I asked, "What if you die Dwight, how will we get into the office?" He said, "If I'm dead, you guys have been dead for weeks."
Ryan Howard:Guys, I want you to meet a really good friend of mine, this is Troy.
Michael Scott:Hey, nice to meet you.
Troy:Hey, how ya doing?
Dwight Schrute:Hey, Dwight. You resemble a Tolkien character.
Ryan Howard:Ah, he basically is man. He's a regular banking wizard.
Dwight Schrute:No, no, no. Not a wizard, a hobbit.
Ryan Howard:Bottle service ya'll?
Michael Scott:Oh ok, all I know is I would like some chicken fingers and a Midori Sour.
Waitress:We don't serve food here.
Michael Scott:Oh ok, then just bring me two cups, one with olives and another filled with maraschino cherries.
Dwight Schrute:Do you live in a regular sized house?
Ryan Howard:Yeah. He's a normal guy, he's cool.
Jim Halpert:You really don't have his phone number?
Pam Beesly:I told you, I have the number that rings here. Do you want that number?
Toby Flenderson:I might have it in here.
Pam Beesly:Aw! That's great Toby.
Toby Flenderson:It's so random that I have it.
Pam Beesly:Toby, you're the best.
Toby Flenderson:When I put it in I thought it would be a waste of time, but I guess it was worth it.
Jim Halpert:Great, It's under here as Security Guard home. Did you not get his name? Or...
Toby Flenderson:No.
Jim Halpert:It's ringing. Does anybody have his name? Quick.
Andy Bernard:Yes, it's Eddie.
Jim Halpert:It's not, it's not Eddie, it's ah, Evan or...
Creed Bratton:Hank, his name is Hank.
Jim Halpert:No guys his name's not Hank, it's ah, is it Edgar?
Phyllis Vance:Elliot.
Oscar Martinez:Elliot!
Jim Halpert:Is it Elliot? Hey ch... chief, this is Jim Halpert from um... where you work. You're the guy who sits behind the desk... you're, you're the, the Afri... African-American guy, I mean you're. Ah... Who, Who've I got here?
Ryan Howard:Dwight Schrute man. How's Schrute Farms?
Dwight Schrute:Good.
Ryan Howard:This guy owns his own beet farm.
Troy:Insane.
Dwight Schrute:Well it's weevil season but we were prepared.
Ryan Howard:Weevils, what a crazy word man. What? I don't even know what that means. What does that mean?
Dwight Schrute:They lay their eggs inside the unripe beet root, then come spring time the babies eat their way out.
Ryan Howard:Crazy. That's too much for me man, I'm gonna hit the bathroom.
Dwight Schrute:You've already been several times.
Ryan Howard:Yeah.
Dwight Schrute:Maybe you have some kinda bladder infection.
Ryan Howard:I don't know, maybe.
Dwight Schrute:I'll order you some cranberry juice.
Ryan Howard:With vodka, you're the best.
Dwight Schrute:(to troy) Do you have powers?
Jim Halpert:(on phone) Oh thank you Hank. You are a lifesaver, Hank. Appreciate it. (to office co-workers) Alright, so Hank is gonna come down here and he's gonna let us all out. (lowers voice) He said it should just be under an hour, so... (everyone groans) we did it.
Oscar Martinez:We should all make sure to give him a big tip this Christmas.
Toby Flenderson:Sorry guys, but I don't think I tipped him for last year's.
Angela Martin:Yeah, neither did I.
Phyllis Vance:Jim was supposed to collect it.
Jim Halpert:Yup...
Kevin Malone:Way to go, man.
Kelly Kapoor:Now he's never gonna come.
Andy Bernard:By a show of hands, who thinks we're a better couple than Jim and Pam? (people raise hands)
Pam Beesly:Phyllis.
Michael Scott:I umm, thought about getting a tattoo on my back as well at one point. I was thinking about getting "Back to the Future." "Back" because it's on my back and "Future" because I'm the kind of guy who likes to look ahead into the future. I just think a tattoo should mean something, you know? And it's my second favorite movie.
Girl in Club:I've never heard of that movie.
Michael Scott:Back to the Future? (she shakes head) Oh, wow. Well you should take a, a film education course.
Girl in Club:How old are you?
Michael Scott:Forty... I'm in my forties.
Girl in Club:Wow. That's so cool.
Michael Scott:Nuhh...
Girl in Club:Well I'm gonna go back to my group now.
Michael Scott:Oh, OK.
Girl in Club:Thanks for the drink.
Michael Scott:You are welcome.
Michael Scott:This place is like sexy pre-school.
Ryan Howard:Did you want a place where we could meet older women?
Michael Scott:I would love a place where we could meet older girls.
Ryan Howard:Hell yeah. I'll hook it up. (smashes beer bottle on the floor)
Michael Scott:Ahh, wow. That's dangerous.
Ryan Howard:(to bouncer) Check again, Ryan Howard.
Dwight Schrute:(to tall woman in front of him, tapping her shoulder) Excuse me.
Tall Girl #1:Yeah?
Dwight Schrute:(referring to girls in front of him) How did you all find each other?
Tall Girl #1:Uh, we're the Jersey State Varsity Basketball team. Northeast Regional Champs.
All Girls:Wooo!
Dwight Schrute:Amazons.
Ryan Howard:(to Dwight, Michael and Troy) It's off. It's not the dude I know. It's some other loser who won't let us in without chicks.
Michael Scott:You're kidding.
Ryan Howard:Let's bail. (starts to leave)
Dwight Schrute:Ok, wai, wai, wai, wait, wait. (turns Ryan around annd points to basketball players) You two, Jersey State girls, let's go.
Tall Girl #2:We're not going unless we can all go.
Dwight Schrute:OK. You know what, fine. Let's go, two girls to a guy. Come on, let's do it. C'mon, Ryan. Move out. OK, three or four with him (referring to Troy). Let's go, c'mon. Here we go.
Toby Flenderson:Hey, look what I found in the back. (shows a football to Pam) Wanna play? Teach you to throw.
Pam Beesly:I know how to throw a football.
Toby Flenderson:Course you do.
Andy Bernard:Yeah, Pam! Hit me up! Go long. Woo! (Pam throws football, hits Meredith's face)
Meredith Palmer:Owww!
Kevin Malone:Oh God.
Bartender:There you go.
Dwight Schrute:Wait, wait a minute, what's this, I didn't order this?
Bartender:It's for you. From them. (points to Jersey State girls across the bar)
Dwight Schrute:Oh. (dumps drink out)
Troy:What are you doing man?
Dwight Schrute:It's not safe. Anything could have been in there. (to girls) Nice try.
Michael Scott:I've never met anyone who does that. You wash dogs? Very cool.
Girl in 2nd club:That's one aspect of small pet grooming. What do you do?
Michael Scott:I am a bank teller.
Michael Scott:Ryan told me to always tell women you work in finance.
Girl in 2nd club:Cool.
Michael Scott:I think so.
Girl in 2nd club:Yeah.
Michael Scott:Yeah, I have fun.
Girl in 2nd club:I'm just gonna just use the powder room.
Michael Scott:All right.
Girl in 2nd club:So I'll see ya soon.
Michael Scott:Very perfect. (girl walks away, Michael laughs) Oh my (notices Dwight making out with Tall Girl #1) This needs to be shared. (takes a picture with his camera phone)(Cut to the office - All Office co-workers cell phones go off. They notice the picture Michael has sent and all groan)
Michael Scott:She washes dogs.
Ryan Howard:You're doing it man.
Michael Scott:I know. I don't wanna get ahead of myself, but I think I want her to meet my mom.
Ryan Howard:Hey man, you ever think there's gonna be this massive nuclear holocaust, and after all the major nations are destroyed they'll just be the tribes in the jungle that rise up and survive? The jungle war fare's gonna rule the world?
Michael Scott:Yeah, maybe. (notices previous girl talking to another guy)
Jim Halpert:Still haven't left the house yet, huh?
Hank Tate:I'll get ready to leave.
Jim Halpert:Good. Please hurry.
Hank Tate:(on phone) Stop calling me so I can put on my damn socks!
Jim Halpert:Will do. (hangs up) I'll stop calling.
Michael Scott:(on phonne) I am. I am getting out there. Well, no I've asked a lot of girls to dance mom. They're just, it's not... (Ryan is dancing feverishly and falls over) Yes, I shaved above my neck. Oh my God, mom, I gotta go. One of my friends is getting beaten up by some girls.
Pam Beesly:Actually, it's kind of too bad we're not coming into work tomorrow.
Oscar Martinez:Why?
Pam Beesly:I bet Michael had some elaborate theme party planned, like Scrambled Egg Saturday. (a few chuckles)
Toby Flenderson:More like "Everyone let's get your boss laid Saturday." (more laughs)(Toby puts his hand on Pam's knee, everyone stares, Toby removes his hand) I have an announcement uh, to make. I am moving to Costa Rica. Thought about it for a long time now. And I'm finally gonna do it. So, I'm just gonna hop the fence and jog home now. (runs out of lobby and climbs the fence and jogs away)
Michael Scott:(Michael and Troy dragging Ryan out of the club) Those girls really wailed on you bad.
Ryan Howard:Why wouldn't they let me dance?
Michael Scott:Well...
Troy:OK I gotta go. Do not take him to a hospital. (runs away)
Michael Scott:Pretty weird. (Dwight and tall girl run out of club)
Tall Girl #1:(to Dwight) You have to go with me.
Dwight Schrute:I do, I have to go.
Tall Girl #1:Stay. Stay, please?
Dwight Schrute:No, I have to go. Good luck against Conn College, alright?
Tall Girl #1:Call me.
Dwight Schrute:Uh huh. (to Ryan and Michael) I'm not gonna call her.
Michael Scott:Let's go.
Ryan Howard:I don't wanna go back in.
Michael Scott:I know, here we go.
Jim Halpert:(notices cleaning crew coming up to the gate) Cleaning people. Oscar. (everyone starts to walk outside) OK, so all you need to do is explain to them what happened, 'cause I think they can help us.
Oscar Martinez:Why are you assuming they only speak Spanish?
Jim Halpert:I... just... if they speak Spanish.
Oscar Martinez:(to cleaning people) Good evening, we locked ourselves in. (women don't respond) Nosotros trabajamos aqui, nos trancamos, OK?
Cleaning lady:Ohh...
Oscar Martinez:They happened to speak Spanish.
Jim Halpert:Lucky us.
Ryan Howard:This is a one time thing, you know that right? (they walk into Ryan's apartment)
Dwight Schrute:Wow.
Michael Scott:This is it.
Dwight Schrute:All right.
Michael Scott:This is where the magic happens.
Dwight Schrute:Nice.
Michael Scott:Very nice.
Ryan Howard:One of you guys can have the sofa, and one of you guys can have...
Dwight Schrute:I got sofa. I got sofa.
Michael Scott:Dwight, I'm the boss.
Dwight Schrute:I got floor.
Michael Scott:Case anyone needs to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, I don't wannna get my head stepped on.
Dwight Schrute:(to Ryan) Do you want me to sing you a song my mother used to sing me, when we were sick?
Ryan Howard:No. (Dwight starts singing in German)
Michael Scott:Dwight, shh shh. Dwight. Leave him alone.
Dwight Schrute:It's a lullaby.
Michael Scott:Shh. Ryan, Ryan, we're going to take your clothes off.
Ryan Howard:No. Guys, I think my friend Troy might have a drug problem. What do I do?
Dwight Schrute:I think his species might have a higher tolerance than ours.
Michael Scott:Shh, just stop. Here's what you do. You tell him that you're his friend and that you're gonna help him and that everyone's gonna be all right. And then you put a wire on him and you find out who's selling him drugs and then you get that guy and you flip up, turn him into a snitch. You follow that guy to the people who's really really bad. Been watching The Wire recently. I don't understand a word of it.
Ryan Howard:Guys, I'm going to sleep. You can leave the light on if you want, but please stop talking, OK?
Dwight Schrute:OK. Good night Ryan.
Michael Scott:Best night ever.
Michael Scott:Like I said, it's not about the horniness, it's about the loneliness. And how can I be lonely with my boys? Like a famous person once said, Boys on the side. But I don't, I disagree, I say... let's hear it for the boys.
Hank Tate:(drives up to parking lot to notice all the office cars are gone) Son of a bitch.
In "The Office" episode 11, season 4, "Night Out," Michael and Dwight go to New York City. They want to party with Ryan at a club. Ryan is cold to them at first. He is with his friend, Troy. Michael is sad about his dating life. He wants Ryan to set him up. Jim says he is dating Pam. This surprises Michael. Dwight brags about his beet farm to Troy. Michael takes a picture of Dwight kissing a girl. He sends it to everyone in the office.
Meanwhile, the rest of the office staff works late. They want to avoid coming in on Saturday. They get locked in the parking lot. Jim calls the security guard, Hank, for help. Hank is slow to arrive. Toby puts his hand on Pam's knee. Everyone sees. Toby then says he is moving to Costa Rica. He climbs the fence and runs away. The cleaning crew finally lets them out.
Back in New York, Ryan dances wildly and falls. The girls he was with beat him up. Troy says not to take Ryan to a hospital. He runs away. Dwight leaves with a tall girl. Michael and Dwight take Ryan home. Dwight sings a lullaby in German. Michael says it was the best night ever. He is not lonely with his "boys." He arrives at work to find the parking lot empty.
