I'm not sure if you guys like The Office, but I love it, so here is my blog post of the last episode strait from thebestsiteonearth (http://www.superoneup.com)
It’s not unusual to see Michael make a fool or embarrass himself, but this time he had a little help doing it. In this episode, Jan, Michael’s girlfriend, is going to argue that Dunder Mifflin illegally fired her. Jan needs Michael to testify on her behalf, but she makes a mistake by thinking Michael has the capability to do such a thing without fault. The funniest part was when Michael finds out that Jan stole his diary to be used as evidence. They photocopy the diary for everybody to read, and Michael is so embarrassed, and angered especially when Toby tries to comfort him with his own childhood story. In the end Jan loses all credibility when Michael screws up his testimony, as we knew he would. I was especially surprised when Michael decides that Dunder Mifflin was more faithful to him that Jan, even after he found out that he was never a real candidate for the promotion. I guess he has reasoning behind this after listening to Jan’s evaluation of him, written while they were dating. She states that Michael should be put back in sales, and lose his management position. So after I think about it, I guess Michael is justified in his decision to side with the company, either way both sides don’t believe in his capabilities. After all that laughter, I couldn’t help but feel sad for Michael in the end, he’s a lonely sole. The secondary story followed in this episode is a ping pong rivalry, not between the players but their girlfriends. Jim is a terrible ping pong player who keeps losing to Daryl. Kelly keeps talking “smack†to Pam until she gets fed up and builds a special table for Jim to practice. One hilarious moment is when Kelly describes the differences between “smack†talk and “trash†talk. Jim practices with Dwight, tricking him into thinking he’s helping Jim practice for a game with a customer. It’s classic how they make Dwight an expert ping pong player, because all his hero’s growing up were ping pong players. I almost died laughing when Dwight was naming off his idol’s names during the interview, all foreign n names, most some type of Russian or Asian. I can’t wait to see what’s up next in The Office saga.
