Michael Scott Quote #1058

Quote from Michael Scott in The Deposition

Michael Scott: Jan and I had an on-again, off-again relationship for two years. And I know this destroys her case. And I am sorry. But I throw myself at the mercy of the deposition.
Diane Kelly: Thank you, Mr. Scott. That's all we needed to know.
Mr. Schneider: Wait. We'd like to enter in the record a page from Michael Scott's personal journal.
Michael Scott: Whoa, whoa, whoa. What are you doing with my diary?
Mr. Schneider: This is plaintiff's exhibit 107. I quote from an entry dated January 4 of this past year. "Just got back from Jamaica. Tan almost everywhere. Jan almost everywhere. Hee hee. Oh, diary, what a week. I had sex with my boss. I don't know if it's going to go anywhere. Jan was very specific 'that this is not going anywhere.' That it was a one-time mistake. But we had sex six times, so you tell me. I am definitely feeling very eerie."
Michael Scott: Irie.
Mr. Schneider: Irie, sorry. "More tomorrow. Xoxo, Michael." It would appear that neither you nor Ms. Levinson considered you had a relationship in any sense of the word, is that correct?
Diane Kelly: We'll need to see a copy of that entire journal before-
Michael Scott: I don't think anyone in this room has a right to read my diary.
Diane Kelly: It's basic discovery. We have the right to review it.
The mediator: Okay, let's make ten copies of this diary.
Toby: Um. Could you make it 11?
The mediator: 11, sure. And we'll break for lunch so everyone can have a look.

Quote from Michael Scott

Michael Scott: Why did I do it? I don't know. Jan said that it was because of the photo that she revealed the diary. But she already brought the diary with her to New York. So... You expect to get screwed by your company. But you never expect to get screwed by your girlfriend.

Quote from Jan

Jan: People underestimate Michael. There are plenty of things that he is well above average at. Like ice skating. He is a very good ice skater.

Quote from Michael Scott

Mr. Schneider: Can you go back to where this digression began?
Stenographer: "Mr. Schneider: 'And you were directly under her the entire time?' Mr. Scott: 'That's what she said.'"
Michael Scott: Well... Delivery's all wrong. She's butchering it.
