Quote from Andy
Nellie: Andy?
Andy: Who is it?
Nellie: Um, is this a good time?
Andy: Yeah. Perfect time. Right in the middle of a rooftop crisis. [takes paper from Nelly] Fine, let me read it. What do we have here? Uh, okay... blah blah blah blah blah, dah dah dah dah dah dah. You've made this very easy for me. It's unsignable.
Nellie: Oh, what- Is there something?
Andy: It's inaccurate, dishonest and, in a word, dongwater.
Nellie: Ah well, perhaps I could rewrite some of the-
Andy: Here's the thing, you asked me to do you a favor? I did it. I read it. Thank you very much to me for my time. Good luck with your impossible dream.
Nellie: Alright then.
Quote from Jim
Jim: Did you ever think that because you own the building, everyone in it, we're all kinda like your children?
Dwight K. Schrute: You know there's a phrase about that in German. Bilden-kinder. Used almost exclusively by childless landlords to console themselves. But now? I really understand it.
Jim: Well, now you have a bus full of real bilden-kin...
Dwight K. Schrute: Bilden-kinder.
Jim: Okay. And they're all dangerously close to not getting pie. And there's only one guy who can save them. It's not me.
Quote from Jim
Pam: You feel okay now?
Dwight K. Schrute: Oh, better than okay. [grabs Pam's shoulders] You know what honey? I'm gonna get you that rhubarb pie.
Pam: Well, actually, rhubarb is-
Jim: Don't.
Pam: -the one pie that I don't-
Jim: Don't.
Quote from Kevin
Kevin: I insult you, Oscar.
Oscar: What?
Kevin: I insult you! To your face!
Oscar: I don't know what you're talking about.
Kevin: Then why don't you do something about it?
Oscar: [laughs] Kevin, are you trying to get me to hit you? In the face with my pie?
Kevin: You don't have the guts. You stupid, dumb, doo-doo face! [Oscar pies Kevin] Yes!
Quote from Andy
Andy: My name is Andy!
Group: [unenthusiastic] Yeah.
Andy: I don't do drugs!
Group: Yeah.
Andy: Now check the style!

Group: Yeah.
Quote from Creed
Pam: Roll call.
Phyllis: Roll call.
Oscar: Roll call.
Creed: What?
Quote from Jim
Jim: I'm gonna drive you up to the lake, give you a whole week on the water. Just you, me and the kids.
Pam: Oh, can we stop by that pie stand on the way?
Jim: You mean Laverne's Pies Tires Fixed Also? [Pam nods] Yes, we will be doing that. We'll be getting a dozen.
Pam: A dozen different pies? Cause that means rhubarb.
Jim: Why would you say that? I meant 4 apple, 4 blueberry, 2 cherry, 1 peach and 1 chocolate. I thought that was implied.
