There may be more comparisons that I'm not thinking of, but off the top of my head . . . both mighty Jim and high and mighty Ryan "fell" because of a "tragic flaw" -- hubris, excessive pride. Ryan's is obvious, and Jim's was exposed in his comment about the other employees working well the one time a year they hear a good idea. Ryan's friend's name was Troy, reminiscent of the Trojan horse story. He appeared harmless enough, but seems to have been carrying the agent of Ryan's destruction, drugs. And I am not familiar with the show "The Wire," but Michael mentions it, and apparently it is based on Greek tragedy or mythology. Dwight and his Amazons. There may be more, and once you are looking for something, even unintentional patterns can emerge, but I am just trying to remember 10th grade English here! Anyway, love the show -- so glad it's back!

Thu, 01 May 2008 01:28:32 +0000 http://www.officetally.com/the-office-night-out#comment-337958 At first I thought the Toby-Costa Rica bit was too random and not like Toby's character at all, but I was just watching season 3, and in the Branch Closing episode, Toby says, "Well for a minute there, I saw myself selling my house, moving to Costa Rica, learning how to surf. But … Costa Rica will still be there. When I’m 65." So I guess he really DID want to go to Costa Rica and the awkward moment with Pam (i.e. everyone knows that he likes her now) spurred him to actually move there. I bet he decided right on the spot. Poor Toby. At first I thought the Toby-Costa Rica bit was too random and not like Toby’s character at all, but I was just watching season 3, and in the Branch Closing episode, Toby says,

Ryan on coke? Brilliant! Steve Carrel's face after rejection, as usual, is priceless. He plays the loser-role better than anyone.

But maybe as one of the business owners, he might have been able to get Hank the security guard to take less than an hour to come? Something that I was wondering, though - if Dwight has the key to the office, and the spare key - how did everyone get into the office that one time where Jim and Pam tricked him into thinking it was Friday, when it was actually Thursday, and then the next day, Dwight came in late to work?

Their initial problem was trying to get back into the office to find Hank's number and call him to unlock the gate. At this point, yes, Phyllis could have called B. Vance to bring a key for the office. However, Toby solved that problem by revealing that he already had Hank's number in his cell phone. 396 – You took the words right out of my mouth!

I don't think the writers thought this out to the point where you're going. I mean, would the security guard really have locked the gate with half the cars still in the parking lot without checking with the DM office?
