Quote from Gabe

Darryl: Who knows what the belt is for?
Gabe: It's for protecting my ass. When you suckers lift more than you can handle. Sup, I'm Gabe. Corporate. Continue. Don't be nervous.
Darryl: Apparently we have a visitor. Gabe, everyone.

Quote from Gabe

Gabe: I get the sense that Val enjoys a good put down. Considering that's the only thing I know about her. I will be milking that hard.

Quote from Gabe

Gabe: It's like a hula hoop. Right. Mele Kalikimaka is the wise way.
Darryl: You done?
Gabe: The Michelin man called, he wants his cummerbund back.

Quote from Ryan

Stanley: Try mose1234.
Ryan: Dwight would never be that obvious. Try something like...z64$8. [incorrect password] Not that exactly, Jim, something like that.

Quote from Darryl

Val: Hey, mandatory warehouse safety meeting. Today.
Darryl: Uh, we don't really do those. We just sign the thing.
Val: Are you really this lazy?
Darryl: I'll be there.

Quote from Andy

Dwight K. Schrute: Well, I can make this work. I'll set it up right now. Just need your go ahead.
Andy: Go do the voodoo that you do so well.
Dwight K. Schrute: I will do my voodoo.

Quote from Dwight K. Schrute

Jim: Wait, so you installed a doomsday device?
Dwight K. Schrute: No, it's an accountability booster.
Jim: Which when it goes off it destroys everything. Very similar to a doomsday device.
Dwight K. Schrute: Jim, you're trying to make me sound like some kind of evil maniac. No, the point is that we are now working in an environment where we have accountability to each other. I am confident that you guys are equal to the task.

Quote from Dwight K. Schrute

Andy: All right, everybody. Looks like we need to be getting to work. Be extra careful. Double check everything or the accountability booster will getcha.
Stanley: This doomsday device sounds like a scare tactic to me.
Oscar: There's an easy way to tell if this device is a sham. We just make a mistake. I'll send an order down to shipping before we've received payment.
Dwight K. Schrute: [alert goes off] Oh, there's a mistake.
Erin: Now we only have four strikes left until a home run.
Andy: Dwight's our co-worker and he worked really hard on this doomsday device so I...
Dwight K. Schrute: It's not a doomsday device. Gosh. We can do this you guys.

Quote from Kevin

Phyllis: Remember we have to give Rigo Escrow their refund by five.
Kevin: I'm on it.
Angela: Kevin, maybe I should handle that. We really need you to focus on your project.
Kevin: Good thinking.
[aside to camera:]
Kevin: Apparently a big client for this company needs to know the story of how paper gets made.

Quote from Dwight K. Schrute

Andy: All right, everybody. You are doing great.
Dwight K. Schrute: Well, I wouldn't say that. Three mistakes already is pretty terrible, but I do see improvement. Meredith kept someone on hold for thirty minutes and now look she's hard at work. [Meredith gives Dwight the finger]
