The episode starts with a famous cold open. Michael, Dwight, and Andy try to do Parkour around the office. They jump on desks and scream "Hardcore Parkour!" while looking very silly. Their goal is to move from point A to point B as creatively as possible.
It is the last day for the summer interns. Michael hears a rumor that Stanley was at a club with a woman. He soon finds out the woman was not Stanley's wife. Michael talks to Stanley in the parking lot to get the truth.
Stanley admits he is having an affair with a woman named Cynthia. He begs Michael to keep it a secret. Michael cannot stay quiet and tells the whole office. He later feels bad and tries to fix his mistake.
Michael spreads many strange lies to hide the truth:
- Kelly has an eating disorder.
- Andy is gay.
- Jim is a J. Crew model.
- Kevin has another person inside him working controls.
- Pam is pregnant.
The team tries to find out who started the lies. Jim and Pam realize Michael accidentally guessed their real secret. They are really pregnant but had not told anyone yet. They did not want the office to judge them for being unmarried.
To save Stanley's marriage, Jim and Pam tell the truth about the baby. They show a sonogram to the whole group. Michael is happy, but he later calls Stanley's wife by mistake. He tries to cover it up but fails.
Stanley finds out Michael talked to his wife. He gets very mad and destroys Michael's car with a crowbar. The interns finish their day by sharing what they learned at Dunder Mifflin. Most of them learned that the staff is very messy.
