Michael · Pam · Ryan · Jim:Maybe. — Three yes.
Michael · Ryan · Pam:OK, so you're not going to reveal in any way that we're broke. Of course not. That we're having any problems at all.

Jim · Pam:Whoa, Saucy, I thought you liked Maine. / I think we should get a townhouse in Soho. / Soho's mostly lofts, but okay.

Jim · Pam:So, I've been thinking, after we win the lottery, we take our winnings... / Our fake winnings. / And we move to the South of France. / See... No, there's plenty of bicycling for you.

Kelly · Pam:You don't want to end up like Elin Nordegren. / You wish you had her life. No offense, Pam. / None taken.

Dwight · Pam:Jim may be lying with his words, but he can't lie with his body. The male reveals attraction through unconscious and involuntary physical signs. The puffing of the chest, mirroring, increased blood flow to the crotch. We start there. / With the crotch? / With the crotch.

Dwight · Pam · Jim:Yep, he's lying. / See, was that so hard? / I am not lying. / Really? / Are you really gonna listen to his stupid homemade test? / I would listen to it, because your husband is lying. In fact, he's lied about every question. Even his name. Who are you really?
Dwight · Pam · Jim:Look at the numbers. Every single time, it's come up 150 over 100. Your husband is a pathological liar. / You have high blood pressure. / He is definitely attracted to her. / Doesn't your dad have it? / Yeah, but I don't smoke. / When have you been to the doctor? / I don't know.
Dwight · Pam:It's important to go every month and get your prostate checked. You can do it at home with your finger, you just stick it... / Dwight, stop.

Coworker · Pam:Are you glad to be back? Yeah-- Yeah, I mean I could have used another week or three.
Pam · Kevin:Oh, Angela, those brownies have walnuts in them and I think Kevin's allergic to walnuts. You're allergic to walnuts, right, Kevin? Extremely, but I'm going to fight through it.
Pam · Angela:Aw, it's okay, Angela. I have mommy-brain too. / I don't know what that is, Pam.
Coworker · Angela · Pam:When did you find time to do all this? Babies sleep a lot, Pam. If you feed them enough. Brownie, Pam?

Jim · Pam:Now, is it too dark to say that Cece's having an operation? / I think you need to go to Florida.
Pam · Jim:It's only for three weeks. You know, with my mom and sister at the house it'll be-- / A total nightmare. / I was going to say, 'good, because I'll have all the help I need.' / Yeah, that's what I'm saying. They're incredibly helpful. You're lucky to have them.

Pam · Jim · Pam:Goodbye. / For a very, very long time. / Hmm? Okay. / It's only three weeks.
Pam · Kevin · Andy:Erin set the phones to voicemail. Pam and Kevin bicker about who should answer. Andy is told 'You're standing up, you're the closest one to it.' Andy answers: 'Hello, Dunder Mifflin... Hello, you've reached Dunder Mifflin. How may I be of service?'
Angela · Oscar · Pam:Angela asks if anyone wants to see a picture of Philip, then pivots to her cat Philip — but Oscar's dog is apparently doing baby things too
Angela · Pam:Oscar thinks having a dog is just like having a baby. News flash, if you didn't carry it around in your belly for nine months, it isn't your kid. Exactly. Unless you adopted, of course. That is where we disagree.
Pam · Oscar:Talking head: Angela and Pam simultaneously — 'Angela is such a liar.' / 'It's maddening.'

Ryan · Pam:Smokey Robinson is dead — Ryan announces it gravely, Pam says 'I really liked him,' Ryan responds: 'Oh, you liked him? That's nice.'
Ryan · Pam:'That's not what Smokey would have wanted.' / 'Does want.' — the correction after almost saying 'would have wanted' for a living person.

Kevin · Pam:"This sucks. Yeah, seriously. It's like everything on there is work." / "Yeah, and I don't think that you understand wheels."

You're firing me? / Jim and I are pretty sure she had an affair with her ex-assistant Hunter. He was 17. But she looks great. If she asks, will you tell her I said that?
Pam:Jim and I are pretty sure she had an affair with her ex-assistant Hunter. He was 17. But she looks great. If she asks, will you tell her I said that?
Pam:Forget everything we taught you.
Pam · Jan:Your voice is as lovely as ever. / Well, that was me too. / Oh, okay. It's just that's how Cece does it with the backwards Es.

Jim · Pam:Hey, David? How'd you like a guy who's not here as much, gets paid the same amount of salary and has bigger fish to fry in Philadelphia?

Hide · Pam:You paint wall now? Yeah! Painting now. [pause] You paint now? I mean, it's probably going to be a few minutes... I wait. Sweet! Yay!
Pete · Pam · Kevin:It's empty. What? What? Come on, we could use a blank card. No! No! That's cheating! I could get us a complaint. You? Little Miss Priss? You wouldn't fart on a butterfly.
Pam:No, I wouldn't. I can't even relate to that impulse.
Pam:And I just called to say your mama is so fat, when she wears red people yell 'Hey, Kool-Aid!' Yeah, your mom is fat! This is Pam Halpert!
Pam:And I just called to say your mama is so fat, when she wears red people yell 'Hey, Kool-Aid!' Yeah, your mom is fat! This is Pam Halpert!

Hide · Pam:You paint very bad, bad! / Shut up, Hide!

Pam:Pam's talking-head: 'We don't know for sure this is Meredith's fault.' Cut to: everyone looking at her with obvious disbelief.

Pam:Pam stands on top of the warehouse shelving to address the workers below, demanding whoever defaced the mural raise their hand

Dwight · Pam:If there's anything I hate worse than art, it's crime. / Thank you?
Pam:I was hoping for a righteous mob. I ended up with Dwight and Nellie. But they both have a mob mentality, and I'm pretty sure Dwight has a pitchfork in his car.
Dwight · Pam:We need to find the weakest one and separate him from the group. / Yeah, I think, if we could get Nate alone, we could crack him.
Pam · Dwight:We could tell him that his mother is dying. That usually works on him. / Nate! Your mother is dying.
Pam · Nate · Dwight:See, I feel bad about that. / It's all right. It's all right. So she's gonna pull through again? / That's great. Can I talk to her? / No. She needs her rest again.

Mark (interviewer) · Pam:Mark: 'Step this way for the Spanish inquisition. Kids in the Hall. Just — it's not high pressure. It's just a little [Brooklyn accent] cawfee talk. Okay? Like buttah. Come on in here.' [Pam mouths 'Oh my God']
