I think it was either “are you falling in love with him” or “are you re-thinking marrying roy”.

Fav part by far “Guys, the Afghanistinannies”

has anyone ever speculated as to what pam might have been saying to her mom on the phone?

I really want to know what her mom said when pam answered “I think I am.”

I think she asked if she was in love with him too.

Best episode ever, got me hooked on the office. Pam sold me on this show b/c of this episode

No way is this the best episode. People are too obsessed with Jim and Pam. Yes, they are cute, but must they be the only ones we focus on? Booze Cruise is NOT the best at all, and Casino Night was alright but other episodes like The Fire, The Dundies, The Injury and Christmas Party are WAYYY better. I’m sick of everyone screeching over how John deserves an Emmy (but nobody seems to care about Steve’s nomination- let’s just b**ch about how John wasn’t). It’s driving me nuts. Let’s love them all the same.

Wow, this is the top rated episode? and the pilot is LAST? that’s screwed up. Should be other way around. The Office ruined the whole series by Jim revealing his love to the Naive Pam.

Okay, I was just at NBC.com, and I was looking at the bio section, and I noticed something. Pam’s fiance Roy, his last name is Anderson. Now it’s not a bad last name, unless your first name is Pamela. If she marries Roy she will Pamela Anderson! Ahh! That is just another reason for her and Jim to run off together. LOL!

if you look at it from a purely technical standpoint, jim’s desk really is the best place to have pam call her mom. it’s the first one when you walk into the office that is easily accessible. if pam would have called from reception, i think the blocking would have been more difficult and awkward and jim wouldn’t have been able to “sneak” in that kiss, as people are terming it.
maybe this is thinking about it too much…

” … did anyone else notice that Pam calls her mother on Jim’s phone?”

Yes, J, I noticed that, too. Why didn’t Pam call from reception? Maybe she was going to leave Jim a note, then decided to call her mom instead?

I watched the episode again after breaking a self-imposed 1 week withdrawl period, and its truly amazing. Seriously. Two things:
1. I find it interesting that in the teaser, Roy is standing right there as Pam winks at Jim and they pull off another great tag-team prank.
2. This is a strech at best, but did anyone else notice that Pam calls her mother on Jim’s phone?

You must put a question mark at the end of this line
Pam: Well, I um … I … I can’t?
Because that’s the way it’s said.

I have to say the JAM thing worries me a little, in the sense that I hope it doesn’t overshadow the show, I hate to say this but just like friendships get ruined by relationships so do tv shows. The Office has such a great staff of writers that they should be able to work it out well. Hopefully no “creative differences,” occur. Great episode really. I wouldn’t call it the funniest episode. It was just really really really good tv.

forgetting the JAM for a sec, the thing that really got me about this episode was Jan’s reaction to Michael. That was great. That is going to be really interesting. I can’t wait for the next season.

Hey Lal – This is not good news!! I don’t want Roy to try harder — I want Pam to dump him and run straight to Jim. This will be so frustrating if we have to watch Pam waiver between Roy and Jim!!

Ok, so at the very end, after the kiss, it looks like Pam and Jim both say something…It looks like Pam says “I can’t.” and Jim says “Can’t?” What do you all think?

Spoilerish–hint at next season plotline!! From Kristin Veitch’s chat on Eonline. I cannot wait until September. I get all butterflyish thinking about it.

From Freckles: The Office finale! Jim and Pam kissed!
I know! I knew it was going to happen, and I was still squealing! Don’t you wonder why Pam won’t just leave Roy for Jim?! Actually, I had the pleasure of running into David Denman, who plays Roy, and he was much cooler than his TV counterpart. It happened to be the same week they were shooting the Office finale, and I said to him “Maybe Jim will give Roy a run for his money next season?” and he said “Maybe Roy’ll put Jim in the hospital!” No, you know, we may see a kinder, gentler Roy this fall. He also said, “I think Roy’s just so used to being with Pam that he’s not really trying too hard. So, I think we’re gonna see Roy try a little harder next year, and maybe realize Pam’s a little cooler than he thought she was.

I love the way Dwight would come after Carol or Jan were already speaking with Michael. So funny… or how he tells Jim, I don’t believe you, continue… lol

Oh I guess I should mention that I love Jim’s character……..

The character, Carol is Steve Carells wife? Did someone once mention that?

I think the Jim and Pam will happen somewhere towards the end of season three or during the beginning of season four. I really don’t want the show to all of a sudden be putting Jim and Pam in the spotlight. I really hope in season three, Pam and Roy seperate, because Pam needs a break (not because she likes Jim). I hope season three will focus on the side characters a lot more and maybe Pam will do something with her talent of art.

Personally, I think if they do hook up and have a real relationship, it will be a good relationship. No fighting or anything. I think once theyre together and get on their feet as a couple, the writers will cool it for a season, and have their relationship mentioned and monitored, but have something else be the big story line for the season. Then, maybe in season 4, they could move back to the relationship and have buildup, ultimately leading to a proposal, and marraige at the end of season 5. That would be awesome.

I think that real-time will have to be abandoned on this one. I really think that season 3 will have to pick up within the next week or so after Casino Night. Putting it in real time would mean either we missed the Ram wedding or we missed Jim breaking it up or Pam deciding not to happen, and that is at least a quarter of a season right there. So, they can’t just skip it.
