This one of the best episodes.

Whoever did the makeup job on the Foreman marks did a great job. EWWWW.

And Dwigt puking was almost too much to handle.

And of all the side-cast, Stanley is my favorite. He takes no crap and even dishes it out, but never to the point of going over the top.

"You can't fire me. I don't work in this van."

I know I've said this before, but I love the way they've made the camera into its own character. It's quickly becoming Pam's Lassie, like when it told her to let Angela know that Dwigt was okay.

Related to that, did anybody else think it was hilarious when the nurse told Michael that no electronics were allowed past that point, and he took out his microphone and shut it off? Silence...

Is this a production goof?

Obviously the camera had an external microphone since it recorded the nurse's voice, and it's highly unlikely she'd agree to be mic'd up.

So when Michael turned his off we should at least have heard the ambient noise around the camera.

Because of this, I actually wondered for a second or two if there was a technical problem with the station. Then they cut to the office and the sound was back, so I chalk it up to a production goof.

My wife and I were squirming when Michael said to the guy in the wheel chair -
"You and I we're alot alike" also, "30 seconds! Thats 3x's as long as me"

That whole seen (and every conference room scene) makes me squirm - but oh so funny

 

[Dignan]

Two moments at the very end had me laughing hard, Michael touching Dwight's foot and smelling his fingers, and of course his attempt to get his "cooked" foot into the machine.

 

[bigrig]

My Tivo missed the very start of the show! Why did he have his foot in the Foreman grill?

I always watch the Office after my girlfriend goes to sleep. Its often very hard to not wake her up with my laughter.

She doesn't want to watch it??

Spoiler

he had it plugged in his room because he didn't have a butler. he wanted to wake up to the smell of bacon, so he would take his grill, put the bacon on it, and then wake up, turn the grill on, and then go back to sleep, so when he wakes up, it smells like bacon.

he stepped on the grill this particular morning.

i know. it's even more hilarious if you saw it live. sorry you missed it.

 

[scottjf8]

was it us, or did Michael also leave his watch on when going into the CT scan room?

Are CT scans affected by metal outside the chamber? CT scans are really just sophisticated X-Rays, right? So while Dwigt should have been metal-free, I don't think Michael needed to be.

MRI's, however, I would venture to guess could be thrown off by stray metal.

I thought the first half of the episode was generally unfunny, it picked up then they got in van.

 

[VegasVic]

I don't quite understand why he would have the grill on the floor, he could smell the bacon if the grill was on the counter.

 

[pdhenry]

Dwight definitely had a watch on, on his right arm, IIRC.

 

[jrinck]

Because he is Michael Scott.

And does this bacon sit out all night in his bedroom? YUCK.

Does he eat it?

Foreman grills allow for grease splatter outside the confines of the grill. Is this a fire hazard as well as a generally bad way to ruin carpeting or hardwood flooring?

Also, don't Foreman grills have a 10 minute timer and then they automatically shut off? So Michael gets up, loads the grill, turns it on, sets the timer to 10, and then only goes back to sleep for 10 more minutes, giving maybe a few to compensate for cool-down time?

Dwight hit the pole hard enough to rip off the bumper and get a concussion, but the car was still perfectly driveable?

And when the guy in the wheelchair made the comment about the handicapped space, the camera turned to a guilty-looking Michael. Wouldn't Dwigt be the one who parked it there, and, of course, the Michael we know would have turned the attention to Dwigt on that one.

Stroudsburg is quite aways away from Scranton, or does Ryan live there? Why else would he have gone all the way to Stroudsburg to try to find yams?

Hey, great episode, but loaded with inconsistencies!

you're probably a stitch and a half at parties.

MRI = Magnetic Resonance Imaging = Huge Magnets = Metal Flying Across The Room

 

[Warren]

'What did you write down for 'Purpose of visit' ? '
'Bringing someone to the hospital.'

I woke my wife up laughing with this. I was laughing so hard that she thought I was......um...."playing around"

[TAsunder]

I'm confused by the ipod from the christmas episode. I thought dwight ended up with it?? Which makes me wonder how he knew so much about the mp3 player pam had.

 

[xtopher_66]

I believe that was his hospital wristband. However, Michael definitely had his watch on.

Great episode overall.

"Oh my God, Dwight's kind of my friend"
