‘The List’

Season 8, Episode 1 -  Aired September 22, 2011

As Andy settles into his role as regional manager, Robert California, the new CEO of Dunder Mifflin, divides the office with a list he made.

Quote from Dwight K. Schrute

Andy: Really great list of names guys. Thank you so much. Good work.
Jim: Uh, no, actually. That was in Robert's notebook.
Pam: He left it at reception and we photocopied it.
Andy: Oh, okay. I don't want any part of this.
Pam: Maybe it's a list of people he's gonna fire.
Jim: Okay, it's not that Pam. You know, I was thinking it reminds me of those lists Dwight used to make.
[later, Dwight joins them in Andy's office:]
Dwight K. Schrute: This is if we were all on a cruise ship and had to divide into lifeboats. This is if we were on a cruise ship and had to divide into life rafts. Here's something. Who would eat who in an ‘Alive' situation. No... that can't be it.

Quote from Kevin

Oscar: Cultural ghetto? Totally- Totally agree.
Phyllis: Completely.
Darryl: Apt. Apt analysis, Robert.
Kevin: The thing that I like about Elmo is the tickling.

Quote from Andy

Andy: Great group! Pizza party!
Kelly: How is this a pizza party?
Andy: Well, why don't you ask me again when the five pizzas get here.
Kelly: Yeah, well, that's just pizza. You need at least one other element for it to be a party.
Andy: Okay. You guys ever had Margherita pizza?
Stanley: What's that?
Andy: Fresh tomato with a dollop of mozzarella cheese.
Stanley: That's pizza.
Pam: That's regular pizza.

Quote from Ryan

Ryan: Okay, not to point out the glaringly obvious, but doesn't the fact that I'm in this group make anyone feel just a little bit better? [biting pizza] Oh! This crust is sharp!

Quote from Pam

Pam: I used to be young and cute and sorta funny and I could do those cute, little cartoons. And everyone who came through here was like, "Who's that receptionist? I like her." Now I'm just a fat mom. Yeah, and you take one look at me and you're like, "Oh, loser."

Quote from Pam

Andy: C'mon Pam. Chins up, okay? Bad joke. Look around this room. Does this look like a group of losers? Seriously?
Pam: Oh. Oh God!

Quote from Andy

Robert: Are we done?
Andy: Yes. No! The Friday before Columbus Day, we're gonna take a half-day so that everyone can get a jump on the long weekend.
Robert: You want a three and half day weekend for Columbus Day?
Andy: Yes, I do.
Robert: And you are aware that Columbus and his legions committed genocide against an entire civilization of Native Americans.
Andy: I don't care.

Quote from Erin

Erin: I like my new group. I liked my old group.

Quote from Darryl

Darryl: Yeah, I wanted the manager job, but I got somethin' much better... This soda. This is mine.

Quote from Dwight K. Schrute

Jim: No one should be planking at all.
Andy: Thank you, yes. Dwight, my enforcer, my number two, can you take care of this?
Dwight K. Schrute: Say no more.
[later, after Dwight attacks plankers:]
Dwight K. Schrute: Kids, don't try planking. It's dangerous. ‘Specially with me around.
