Lastly, I loved Michael's Rodney Dangerfield impression (though I wished he would have said the Caddyshack line ''when you buy a hat like this, I bet you get a free bowl of soup,'' which always makes me laugh). Yet, I cannot even come near to picking a favorite quote or best gag for this episode. These are my nominees:
1. Michael sticking his face in the cement. I like how Dwight covered his skin in Vaseline like you do in grade school before making a papier-mâché mask.
2. Pam wearing her backup glasses and Kevin basically asking her to talk like a dirty librarian. (''Could you just say, 'These are due back Thursday'?'')
3. Jim faking out Pam with another ''almost'' proposal: ''I'm proposing...that you get me a cup of coffee.'' (I actually think it would have been sweet if he had asked her to marry him in the middle of a ''Michael meeting.'' They've had some of their best times during those.)
4. Dwight including the color pink on his organizational chart of the office for ''menstrual cycles.''
5. Darryl telling Michael that, oh yeah, he's been in a gaggle of gangs: the Crips, the Bloods, the Latin Kings, the Warriors, the Newsies. (He did forget the Wolverines, though.)
6. And most importantly, we had more Creed. First, I almost choked when I saw the DustBuster mounted on the wall behind his desk. Huh? Then he broke the Creed-Creep-O-Meter with ''a lot of jazz cats are blind...I'd like to put the piano in front of Pam without her glasses and see what happens. I'd also like to see her topless.''
Did I miss any? If so, list 'em here. Plus, are you ready for our last two episodes? (Spoiler alert: Someone is leaving.) Psyched for finale guest star Amy Ryan? Have any theories for next season? Ever play in cement?
