Quote from Michael Scott

Michael Scott: Thank you very much. Thank you. That was great. Great job, great laughs. Really, really went after my intelligence there. [clears throat] Dozens of online IQ test might prove you wrong, but, and my thing isn't tiny, its average, so... Get your facts straight. [clears throat again] So when I heard that there was going to be a roast in my honor, I thought- [choking up, clears throat again] Sorry, I think I have a frog in my throat. Um. I decided to jot down some quick thoughts about you people. Um, first up Phyllis and Kevin. [Michael walks off stage, knocking the snare drum over as he goes.]

Quote from Kevin

Kevin: [with a sock puppet] He is so dumb that he tries to put his M&Ms in alphabetical order.
Oscar: Alright, Kevin. Enough with the Michael jokes. I think he got it bad enough yesterday.
Kevin: I'm almost done.
Oscar: That reeks, and I'm trying to eat.

Quote from Dwight K. Schrute

Pam: Phyllis there's a package for you.
Phyllis: Oh, okay. [After Phyllis signs for the package, she opens it and finds it's empty]
Dwight K. Schrute: [pulls the clipboard away from the "delivery guy" on a string] Got it.
