Andy Bernard wants a fun way to end the workday. He sings "Closing Time" by Semisonic every single afternoon. This new tradition annoys the entire staff. Robert California visits and demands that Andy stop all office mistakes.

Dwight Schrute offers a high-stakes solution to the error problem. He creates a program called the Accountability Booster. The staff quickly renames it the Doomsday Device. If the office makes five mistakes, the program sends a mean email to Robert.

The email contains every insult the employees ever wrote about their boss. It also suggests that Robert should shut down the branch. The office reaches five strikes before lunch. Everyone panics because the email will send automatically at 5:00 PM.

Jim follows Robert to a squash club to distract him. He hopes to keep Robert away from his phone and computer. Jim is terrible at the game and suffers several minor injuries. This physical comedy is a fan-favorite scene from the episode.

Pam, Andy, and Kevin drive to Schrute Farms to find Dwight. They find him in a field digging a grave for a horse. Pam tries to use her friendship to get Dwight to stop the timer. She even jokes about the mistake with the phrase "Pobody's Nerfect."

Dwight eventually has a change of heart and stops the email. He realizes he would rather work with these people than be alone. In the warehouse, Gabe fails to win over Val with a creepy date invite. Darryl watches the failure and waits for his own chance to talk to her.
