Goodbye Toby - The Office (Season 4, Episode 18/19)
The branch is planning a going-away party for Toby - he's leaving for Costa Rica. Michael, obviously, is delighted that Toby is leaving, but when Angela won't go along with
his unreasonable party demands, Phyllis gladly accepts the duty of planning the party. It's a grand send-off with carnival rides and even a band.
The new human resources representative, Holly Flax, doesn't exactly get a warm welcome from Michael. Dwight and Michael plan to haze her on her first day. When she playfully
mimics Michael's disdain for Toby, Michael suddenly falls in love with her. With advice from Jim, Michael succeeds in warming up Holly with small talk and jokes, and even
has a mild exit interview with Toby. He had originally planned something brutal, but because Holly attends, he takes it easy on Toby. During the interview, Pam helps Toby
to get revenge against Michael by making him give up his watch as a going away gift - his original going away gift was a rock that had a note attached saying "Suck it."
Part of Dwight's hazing of Holly is to make her think that Kevin is mentally challenged. She gives special attention to Kevin due to his "disability." Kevin misinterprets her
compassion as sexual interest in him.
Pam is going to spend the summer studying graphic design at Pratt Institute in New York City - she got accepted! Meanwhile, Jim calls Ryan about the huge sale that he
recently made (at the golf course). Ryan instructs him to "Just enter the sale on the website." before abruptly hanging up. Jim sees the handwriting on the wall that
Ryan is going to try to push him out of the company but calls Ryan and leaves a voicemail that will make him think twice about doing that.
Not to soon afterward, Creed and Jim find a video of Ryan being arrested for fraud on YouTube. The ruckus it creates interrupts Toby's exit interview. In an interview, Oscar
reveals that Ryan's precious website wasn't doing well, so he double-counted office sales as website sales, fraudulently inflating the firm's figures.
While Kevin is out getting supplies for the party, Michael discovers that Jan has artificially inseminated herself from a sperm bank. She explains that she did this while
she was dating Michael, and that Michael isn't the father, but she still wants him to be involved in the pregnancy. Initially indecisive, Michael eventually calls and
agrees to attend her Lamaze class which is the next morning.
Jim contributes several hundred dollars to the party-planning fund in order to buy fireworks. He's decided to propose to Pam and during a fireworks show will be the perfect time.
Pam notices it and believes Jim is going to propose. Unfortuntely, Andy ruins the moment for Jim by proposing to Angela at the party.
Phyllis returns to the office after the party only to find Angela and Dwight having sex on Angela's desk.

| Today is Toby Flenderson’s last day. I couldn’t sleep last night. I came extra-early. So much energy… There are certain days you know you know you will remember for the rest of your life, and I just have a feeling that today is one of those days. | |
| Morning. | |
| Mornin’. to camera So here we go, just a matter of hours now, until his horribleness has left the building. I’m going to set my watch alarm… And… watch beeps | |
| Good morning, Kelly. | |

| Fine. Good. | |
| I feel weird. | |
| First thing on the agenda-actually, the only thing on the agenda, is the status of Toby’s going away party. | |
| We have a buttercream cake and a slideshow of Toby. | |
| Okay. | |
| But so far we only have two pictures of him. | |
| Okay, well, this will not do. Toby is going away forever, and uh, we need to do something very very special. In some cultures, when somebody leaves, like New Orleans culture, they have a parade and they have a band and people party in the streets… | |
| Do you mean, leaves as in dies? You want us to throw Toby a New Orleans’ funeral? | |
| If the Devil were to explode, and evil were gone forever, what sort of party would you have? | |
| Michael… | |
| Like a beach blowout? Or a toga, toga- | |
| No. You know-no! | |
| Toga! | |
| You always do this! We have a nice, modest party planned, and then you come in and demand the world. Let me be clear. There is simply no money for anything other than a cake and to develop a few more slides… although Toby won’t be in them. | |
| I thought that you might say that. takes off his shoe; hums; takes out cash from shoe | |
| Every year, my sweet, sweet grandmother sends me a check on my birthday for fifty dollars. And lately, she has been sending me, like nine or ten checks a year… uh, as Nana starts to… but, I knew I should be saving it for something, I just didn’t know what I should be saving it for. And then I had an awakening. “Michael, buy a motorcycle.” So I put the money in my shoe, and then I forgot about it until now. | |
| I want a party that makes me feel like I am flying through the air without this… ugly weight holding me down, you know?… I want an antigravity machine. I saw it in a movie. You drink a potion, and then you just start floating all around. | |
| So how much antigravity potion do you want? | |
| No! No! You know what? This is not a party-planning committee anymore! And I don’t want your foot money, and I feel uncomfortable participating. | |
| Phyllis, can you do this? | |
| whispers Yes. | |
| Hi, can I help you? | |
| Hi. Yes, uh, I’m Holly Flax. I was told to ask for a Mr. Flenderson? | |
| As part of my last day I’m training the new Human Resources rep in the ways of the company. Again, the company has allotted for this training-one day. | |
| So this is H.R. This is your desk. | |
| I love the view. | |
| Yeah, it’s great, isn’t it? | |
| Hey. kisses Jim on cheek | |
| Hey… What? | |
| Guess who just got into the Pratt School of Design. | |
| No way! What did I say? I said that they’d love those sketches. Congratulations! | |
| Oh, thank you! I don’t know why I doubted it, because I’m so clearly awesome! | |
| Yes! So when do you start? | |
| I don’t know, I didn’t read it carefully, I just saw “congratulations” and I skimmed the list, I saw my name, I came in here to tell you and get a snack. | |
| Wow. Busy morning. | |
| So, you know it means I have to go to New York for three months… | |
| It’s not a big deal. I’ll come visit you. And you’ll visit me. It’s only two hours away. It’ll be fine. That part’s gonna suck, but it’ll be great. | |
| Yeah, it sucks, but it’ll be great. | |
| See how easy that is? | |
| Ohh… they hug; she laughs | |
| I wouldn’t go if things weren’t so solid with Jim. And down the road, if we have a family, I couldn’t go then either. So, the timing’s perfect… And that is the first time I’ve ever used the word “perfect” in here! | |
| Hey, Stanley… | |
| Hmm? | |
| I want to introduce you to… | |
| watching from his office Toby’s replacement. Ugh. Wow. | |
| So what do we know about her? | |
| Well, we know that Toby thinks she’ll be great. So, strike one, I hate her already. | |
| I hate her too. | |
| Why do you hate her? | |
| Because she… stinks… with her… ways… and her… head. | |
| You know, Dwight, sometimes… I don’t know, I think you say things just to agree with me. | |
| Would that be such a bad thing? | |
| Yeah! It would! Just have a thought. Have an original thought. Although, I will agree that her head is weird. You know what we need to do? | |
| What? | |
| We need to sell her an elevator pass. | |
| But our, our elevator doesn’t require a pa… gasps | |
| Exactly. A little old-fashioned hazing. | |
| Hi. Are there any local companies that rent antigravity machines? | |
Woman over speakerphone | Antigravity machines? | |
| That’s right. Yeah. | |
Woman over speakerphone | What do they do exactly? | |
| They make you feel lighter… | |

| Michael Scott, this is Holly. | |
| Hi. | |
| Hi. Yeah. Right. Okay, well, they hired a female Toby. Good for the world. Thank you, God, for creating two of you. Here’s how things work here: my job is to make the office fun. Your job is to make the office lame. And we have an eternal struggle, you and I. And only one of us can be the winner. Spoiler alert: I’m gonna win. | |
| Man, someone doesn’t like H.R. | |
| Yeah. | |
| to Toby What did you do to him? | |
| Nothing. | |
| T-No. He tortured me… with his awfulness. | |
| Yeah, I know what you mean. I nearly fell asleep when he gave me a tour of the files. Um, well look, I’ll let you get back to work, but I-I really look forward to working with you, Mr. Scott. | |
| Y-You can-Michael. | |
| Thanks to Toby, I have a very strong prejudice against Human Resources. I believe that the department is a breeding ground for monsters. What I failed to consider though, is that not all monsters are bad. Like E.T. Is Holly our extraterrestrial? Maybe. Or maybe she’s just an awesome woman from this planet. | |
| shaking Holly’s hand The pleasure’s all mine. | |
| Oh, thanks. I’m really looking forward to sitting down with you and finding out more about what you do here. | |
| Any time. | |

| whispering Have you been introduced to Kevin? | |
| No. Which one’s Kevin? they glance over at Kevin subtly, who is stifling a giggle | |
| He’s here on a special work program. He’s slow, you know, in his brain. | |
| Oh. Good for you guys. | |
| Yeah. | |

| Well, we’re really happy. | |
| This thing with Holly feels a lot like love to me. | |
| And that’s really sweet. And you can think that. But you don’t say that out loud, and you definitely don’t say it to her. | |
| I don’t want her to get away. | |
| I know. Here, Michael, you can court her as you get to know her, you know? I mean, the office is a great place for that. Pam and I, we got to know each other right out there. I mean, the first time we joked around was at my desk. And the first meal we ever had was, in the break room, actually. We were at two separate tables and, I remember that. The first time we kissed even, was right outside, and… Look, all I’m saying is that you can get to know someone really really well, like I did, right here at work. | |

| Oh my gosh. | |
| It’s the temp! all are watching a YouTube video of Ryan being escorted out of Dunder Mifflin corporate offices by policemen | |
| Is that the police? | |
| Yes. | |
| Mm-hmm. | |
| Well this is what happened: uh, Ryan’s big project was the website… which wasn’t doing so well. So Ryan, to give the impression of sales, recorded them twice: once as office sales, once as website sales. Which is what we refer to in the business as “misleading the shareholders.” Another good term is “fraud.” The real crime, I think, was the beard. | |
| still watching video of Ryan Oh my God. Ryan… Oh my God. | |
| I cannot wait to visit Ryan in prison. I’m gonna wear my hottest track suit, and get my hair done, and then be like, “Hi Ryan.” And then all the other prisoners are gonna be like, “Damn!

| Michael, are you okay? | |
| voice straining I’m just worried about my friend. | |
| Oh, of course you are. | |
| Just, I’m fine. I’m holding it together. I-I have a business to run. | |
| No, hey. | |
| I’m cool. | |
| Stop. You can let yourself be upset. He’s your friend. You know what I usually find?… | |
| Holly is sweet and simple, like a lady baker. I would not be surprised to find out that she had worked in a bakery before coming here. She has that kind of warmth. I’m pretty sure she’s baked on a professional level. | |
| everyone exits the building to find a carnival-themed party in the parking lot Woah! Cool! A bouncy house! | |
| Kevin, take your shoes off first! | |
| No antigravity machine, huh? | |
| Sorry, Michael, I don’t think they’re real. | |
| Ferris wheel’s pretty cool though. | |
| Wow. Look at our parking lot. | |
| Yeah, who’d have thought? Pam sees fireworks being set up; smiles | |
| Is Jim gonna propose tonight? He is, isn’t he? No, he’s not… Is he? | |
| Oh, it was a pretty good company, but I just couldn’t see a future there. They kept hiring from the outside. It was easy to get in but impossible to rise up. | |
| That’s what she… a lot of places are like that. | |
| I think it’s really cool you hired Kevin. | |
| Thanks. | |
| You have it? | |
| Almost. she unlocks Holly’s car | |

| N-nothing you need to know the details of. | |
| There is a raccoon in the car, Dwight! | |
| N-no there’s not. | |
| Why did you do that? | |
| It was playful hazing. | |
| No. There is no such thing as playful hazing. Dwight, I want you to look at Holly right now. Everybody, I want you to look at Holly right now, and maybe if you look at her deeply enough, you will see what I see in her. And that is that we are all very lucky to have her here. Holly is the best thing that has happened to this company since World War II. Fifty years, she is the best. to Dwight Take care of that, all right? | |
| It’s not rabid. | |
| Shh… | |
| Thanks for bringing that up. | |

| Cause that’s… | |
| … touch that. | |
| Wow, I am so happy. I am so deliriously happy… | |
| Why? | |
| Because you’re pregnant, and because it obviously happened when we were together. And, I am very… | |
| Yeah, it did… | |
| … proud. | |
| … happen when… | |
| Um… | |
| … we were together. That’s true. And-but, you… are not… uh, you’re not the dad. | |
| You cheated on me… when I specifically asked you not to? | |
| …Not to. No, I did not. I did not cheat on you. I did not. | |
| Well, okay… | |
| Yeah. | |
| So it’s mine, and it’s not somebody else’s, so… I know… the whole toilet seat thing is a myth, so… | |
| I went to a sperm bank. | |
| You did? | |
| Yuh-huh. | |
| When we were going out? | |
| Uh, yeah. | |
| W-I don’t understand. You always used to be very cautious… I’d wear two condoms. | |
| I know. | |
| You’d rather have somebody else’s sperm than my sperm? | |
| No, no no… it’s not just any sperm bank. I mean, it’s really… this is a really, really great place. It’s amazing, actually. I’m gonna bring you the catalogue. You should look through it. It’s… and it’s-in fact, it’s right next to that little breakfast place that you like in the city where you can draw on the tables. | |
| IHop. | |
| IHop. | |
| If I was 22, and I had lots of time to have lots of children, then sure, let’s let Michael have a shot at one of ’em. But, honestly, I need to make this one count. | |
| Oh, that’s really good. I feel so much better. I just needed to get all that out onto the table. | |
| I’m glad you told me. | |
| Look, I don’t know what you’re gonna be doing tomorrow, but I have my Lamaze class in Allentown, and um… you could come. I usually, you know, use a foam noodle instead of a partner… | |
| Um, I’ll… I have to think about it. | |
| Okay. | |
| My whole life, I have known two things: I love sex, and I want to have kids. And I always thought that those two things would go hand in hand, but now, I think it might be one or the other. | |
