  Dwight Schrute : Come on...

  Michael Scott : Two of their branches have closed within the last year. The Michael Scott Paper Company, however, has opened a new branch this very month.

  Dwight Schrute : What he's not telling you is that he will abandon you.

  Mr. Schofield : Why don't you guys just email me your best offers, and we can finish it up that way.

  Michael Scott : [shakes Schofield's hand]  That sounds like a fantastic idea. I will see you this weekend for the Penguins. Box seats as usual.

  Mr. Schofield : Uh, okay. Sure.

  Dwight Schrute : [shakes Schofield's hand]  Thank you, Mr. Schofield, for your time. Much appreciated. Oh, and tell me, um... How's your gay son?
