The WUPHF sharers want Ryan and Michael to sell it.

Really funny episode. The best was of course the story of Dwight's hay festival Everything that happened with Angela in it is also great, I love their story. The shareholder story was also fun. It is sad though that Michael will not love Ryan as much as he did before. It was always a fun part. Yes, it doesn't make sense how Jim got to commission cap before Dwight. And if Dwight made it first there is no way he would have stayed quiet. But it was still fun enough to see what a prank on Gabe Jim came up with.

Great teamwork on the password solving problem. Stanley's first monologue is brilliant. Ryan takes the hit and Jim gets to last and best laugh. Stanley is a close second though.

The "A" story, Michael and the gang trying to cash in on Ryan's website idea, was a strong starting point that fizzled off into nothing. Ryan is a very boring character, and basing an episode on him is never inspiring. Pam serves as a medium between Ryan's influence on Michael and Michael's grasp on reality concerning his relationship with Ryan. The main thing that is wrong with this is that it is not strong enough to be the "A" story in this episode. The obstacles to overcome were not interesting enough, plus Stanley's short confessional was blame dumb.

The "B" story was nothing short of brilliant. So much real-life Scranton history is presented here, and the Angela/Dwight contract is voided after Angela is left waiting and discovers a new love interest. Some very funny jokes are complemented by story advancements that really leave me wanting more. This should have been developed as the "A" story for this episode.

The "C" story is where I REALLY have a lot of problems. Jim hits a cap on his earnings? Wait a second, I thought that Dwight was the best salesman in the office? Didn't Michael persuade a new traveling salesman with the thought of unequaled wealth through commission to join his team? Jim would not have been the first salesman to hit the cap, which angers me that the writers made up such a shallow story to include Jim's character in this episode.

All in all, the episode wasn't totally weak. The "B" story saved it for me after a weak plot in the "A" story. The "C" story was obviously made at the last minute by the less talented writers. I give it a 6/10 concerning all episodes of the series.

Jim finds out he reached his commission cap. He wears his silver wedding band. Gabe says sometimes working for big organizations means following policies you don't like. For example Gabe wishes locker room policies doesn't allow nudity because he is uncomfortable with nudity. He looks away when there are tons of old naked men in the locker room.

Ryan has an idea where you send a message and it goes out through all your social medias. Some people in the office have invested and have shares. They realize that the direction they are heading is not good and want to sell. Michael doesn't want to. He later explains that even if he has to lose money he wants to support his people and Ryan is dumb, lazy, a bad friend but he dreams big and high.
