Michael Scott: Um Pam, I have to let somebody go today. This is the hardest thing I've ever had to do.
Pam: Why did you put it off until Halloween?
Michael Scott: Because it's very scary stuff.
Pam: I think it's gonna put a damper on the party a little.
Michael Scott: You're worried about the party? There's a man's life at stake here.
Pam: So it's a man?
Michael Scott: No. Or woman. A human life. If you had to guess who it would be based on their job performance and who you think deserves to be fired, who would that be?
Pam: I just answer the phone.
Michael Scott: And sometimes you just let it go to voicemail.
Pam: ... Your costume is fantastic.
