Michael Scott meets his replacement, Deangelo Vickers, at a hotel bar. They bond over a shared love for the desert and the Olympics. They do not realize who they are until they talk on the phone.
Deangelo arrives at Dunder Mifflin the next day. He shares facts like his peanut allergy and his love for the Southwest. Michael tries to make the start special with a lot of clapping. The staff quickly sees that Deangelo is a very different boss.
The office has many funny and awkward moments during this big change:
- Andy eats hand soap to make Deangelo laugh.
- Erin gives Michael a very messy shave in the office.
- Jim and Pam try to use photos of their baby to win favor.
- Dwight acts cold because he did not get the manager job.
Jim and Pam try to use their baby, Cece, to get on Deangelo's good side. He shuts them down quickly and tells them to stop. He wants to focus on work and the regular employees. This makes the couple feel very worried about their future.
Andy Bernard becomes the office "funny guy" by accident. He tries to tell a joke that fails, so he turns to silly stunts. He pours coffee on his pants and acts like a fool. Deangelo loves the act, but Andy feels bad about what he did.
Michael gets jealous when he sees the staff liking the new boss. He throws peanut butter sandwiches around the room to show his power. This causes fear because Deangelo has a serious allergy. Michael eventually calms down and realizes he must let go of his job.
The episode ends with Michael and Deangelo sharing a hug. Michael gives Deangelo some advice on how to lead the team. Deangelo's true self starts to show at the very end. He says he really does not care about Jim and Pam’s baby.
