Exploring Frame Toby - The Office Field Guide - S5E9

[@josephassiryani9174]

Chris, you’re not crazy. Most of those scenes weren’t in the Netflix version

[@TrinityBeholder]

That's exactly what I was thinking!!! I watched the show like 5 times on Netflix and never remember any of those moments.

[@robguerra4058]

Thats why! Thought I was losing ot

[@87DrAndrew]

So, are those deleted scenes? I've even watched the extended version, and those scenes are not there.

[@johnsykes3970]

They’re not on Comedy Central either. I literally just watched the episode like a week and a half ago, and I knew that I didn’t see any of this.

[@The1Tall1Small]

DVD version

[@joelhawkins9866]

Peacock Versions! AND, they changed Oscar’s personality in this, because we all know that Oscar would have been as irritated, or even more irritated at the dirty microwave.

[@violinda.]

He is a member of The Finer Things Club after all...

[@Mulverine]

It was the anonymity that bothered him! 😂

[@eepyJay]

You're so right. I never understood why Oscar would be on that side. Angela makes sense, as an organised person (or "clean freak"), if anyone I would assume Creed or Stanley wouldn't care about it cos they're very blasé.

[@runrgrl35]

Any workplace that has a shared kitchen space goes through this “clean up after yourself “ situation. I’m a teacher and in one school there were constant comments and, yes notes just like Pam’s, about cleaning up - whether it was dishes in the skink, the coffee pot, food left in the refrigerator or the microwave. The next school I moved to didn’t have a staff coffee pot. When I asked why, I was told because no one ever clean it! So I agree with you that this plot in the story was too relatable for too many people and therefore uncomfortable (I know it stressed me out) and bogged down the episode!

[@rapidprimus]

Yeah, the microwave thing had my blood boiling. It's such a common sense thing to do. Make a mess, clean it up. I know they made everyone else against Pam for the joke, but I never find these ganging up on someone for a joke funny, especially when that person was right.

[@jenm1]

I think the joke is that Pam is right

[@RedSoxFanatic4Life]

In a small office like this with a shared microwave, it's the responsibility of the person who makes the mess to clean it up. I'm completely on Pam's side in this debate.

[@01Zeldagirl_]

I've watched the Office SO many times by myself, and thus had so many of my own (mostly disorganized) thoughts and theories about it. It's been so nice to watch this series and learn more about the show, and get into the nitty-gritty. Keep up the good work :)

[@StrayCatAnimations]

So, my headcannon is that the reason why toby was able to "sneak" back into the office without micheal's notice was because he returned while michael was in Canada.

[@dm9489]

Oooh, good one!

[@StrayCatAnimations]

@@dm9489 thanks

[@vhs3760]

Pam was right to make that note. her whole "by leaving the microwave messy, you are telling the person who uses it next that your time is more important than theirs" thing really stuck with me. It's so *true*, even if its a small thing, those small things add up. Anyhow, I guess I'm a Pam. My roommates always hated me for leaving notes and asking them to do simple things (recycling, changing toilet paper tube, etc). To me it feels like if you think you are too busy to do small things, you think other people deserve to do these things for you. It's entitled imo. Leave a comment with how much you hate me I guess.

[@agoodboy6021]

I absolutely agree, especially because it's really just a note? It's not like it does anything... She really wasn't an ass about it. So what's the problem

[@rapidprimus]

Hell yes. But especially since you are at work. Maybe with roommates is more lenient since you live in the same space and have a bond (I guess not you maybe but still). But at work. Fuck to whomever left that mess.

[@babblingalong7689]

Your comment is way worse than not doing household tasks. j/k

In the workforce it's called "passing the buck". Usually there's always somebody who will eventually take care of messes. Everybody knows that... About half the population are total slobs.

[@theprotagonist6057]

I don't remember the office ever giving pam shit about going to New York or "being" New York that really seems like a deleted scene. Maybe they added it back into the peacock version? what version are you watching?

[@theprotagonist6057]

[@jenjarrell9973]

I've also watched the series a number of times on Netflix and the dvds and have never seen the scenes about an "offensive note" by Pam. This is the first time I'm seeing these scenes. I just checked this episode on Peacock and still don't see these scenes...

[@CASEKILLA34]

They didn’t scrape the logo off the cup, the company’s name is “Maruchan instant lunch” so I’m guessing they just covered that up because of a brand name.

[@Sindragozer]

There are multiple reasons that they would remove/hide/modify brand names & logo's. It happens a lot. One of the most common ones I see is to have the Apple logo covered up or modified on a laptop. Also for drinks & food to be a fake or hidden brand. Some of the reasons are: -TV shows & networks aren't going to want to advertise products for free, when a lot of their business models are to get paid to advertise products. -Brand logo's are copyrighted. Some brands are going to want to have control over how their logo's and products are portrayed in shows & movies. Shows aren't going to want to have included a product in a scene, then have the company come along and demand licensing fee's or threaten legal action. Then the show has to either pay up, deal with a lawsuit (which is a pain even if they think they would win), or reshoot/edit the scene to remove the product/brand logo. Shows create props that look similar to a name brand product. With the goal of it looking similar enough for viewers not to notice, but distinct enough to cover themselves legally. It can be fun to try to spot them. It's pretty common for them to have funny parody names & logo's

[@disableddanny96]

I mean they’re working for a paper company you’re not getting paid to clean up. But there’s a certain level of respect you should have for a shared appliance

[@jordansanchez5170]

10:01 Pam, during the house walk through, might have just had a mood change after the B plot of the episode. I haven't seen the extended scenes of this episode with the note debacle (I think she was in the right because everyone was being unreasonable to her). But I think Pam was just having a rough day and then the whole thing with Jim buying something without her knowledge could have added to her pretty tough work day. She was definitely stressed that it was something she might not like, but once she walked through the place she was reminded that there was someone that was always by her side (until the next episode with the chair vs copier fight).

[@danielafl1677]

That makes sense. Also, I think she accepted the house because she was happy Jim still encouraged her to follow her dreams despite failing art school. She seems to dislike the house until she saw the art studio in the garage. Also, Jim was so happy they are finally going to live together, showing her he is serious about committing to her. I guess Pam understood that Jim's actions, although a little bit selfish, were flued by love and excitement, and not by disinterest about her feelings or thoughts.

[@rapidprimus]

@@danielafl1677 Yeah, cause buying a house for a loved one, and also helping your parents out is sooo selfish. Also they weren't even married yet, plus they could sell the house if they didn't like it, plus they would have to live in one of their places anyway, plus..i mean how many reasons can I give here...

[@Mulverine]

I wouldn't call what Jim did selfish, but it was definitely a misstep. For me, when we bought that condo, we were essentially stuck there for a while. Soon after, it was no longer worth what we bought it for, meaning we had to wait out the economic downturn, that literally happened months after Jim bought the condo...so they'd be stuck too. So what I did, not on purpose, was basically take the choice away from my soon-to-be-bride. Intention was good, but maybe not the wisest. Also selling a house right after you purchase it is, I think..., not a good idea. If you make money on it, you have to pay capital gains, and if you're selling it so quickly after a purchase, you'll have weary buyers. Also, you'll lose some money on fees associated with agents, tax and title stuff too. Not an expert though...just commenting that it's not just easy to sell the newly bought house. And then, you're right, they would need to live in one of their places, but I think both of them were renting. Buying a house is a long term investment. So the traditional thing to do would have been to finish out a lease and look to buy a home together, where they can both make choices about features, style, location, blah blah.

[@Goat.Cheese]

The scene you were taking about with Pam wasnt on the Netflix version of the office but it is on the DVD version. I did the same thing! I was so confused the first time I saw it

[@Mulverine]

Yes! That's where I get my content from, but it has basically been 100% true-to-Netflix's cut so far. When I questioned the discord, I got a lot of 'yeah that was there the whole time' type of response, so I ran with it. I'll do a follow up in the S5 wrap up.

[@CameronProductions20]

Best line in this episode "I have cause it's cause I hate him."

[@Backwardsman95]

I think Pam is right, but rather than argue with lazy bums I might try to guilt the coworkers by cleaning it when someone else is in the breakroom (like Oscar) and just not talking about it. Sometimes acting like an adult is the only way to show how childish others are. Then again I'm a very non confrontational person and wouldn't even make a note in the first place

[@dm9489]

I also don't remember the New York bit of the episode.... Its not on the Netflix version, that's for sure. Maybe I should just go re-watch it, just in case I missed something. On second thought, do I need a reason to rewatch the office? Um, No. Also, great review! I agree with your rating, it was an overall good episode.

[@Nos7algiK]

I seen this episode about two weeks ago and I don't remember any of those scenes at all you showed. It was the extended version with some deleted scenes added as well. So my guess is what others have said and it's specific to Peacock possibly?

Eating out of the garbage

[@denisematthews6215]

I know this video is 2 yrs old; but I can’t help myself. I think Pam maybe should have come out to everyone and said ‘ Hey, guys, it’s really not fair to expect someone else to clean up a mess one of you might have made in the microwave. Please, can you clean it?’ It’s definitely more upfront, and , yeah, maybe risky to tick someone off; but I think it’s better than an anonymous note. The one that pissed me off was Oscar with his unnecessary snotty answer.

Reminds me of a friends husband (who she left!) who just expected any mess he made to be cleaned magically, I ended up doing such as well as his sister who he roped into taking care of his house after my friend left him. Also reminds of teenagers who leave their mess and expect their mothers to tidy it without so much as a thanks.

[@Az10813]

Wait this dude bought a condo 20 tf. Yo bro either you send me the cheat code or I'm telling somebody

[@rapidprimus]

For me it's easy. Jim brought a house for Pam. A fucking House. Who does that for someone. Almost no one. It's an amazing gift. Plus they were not married yet. So either way, they would have moved to one of each other's apartments/houses after they were married, so why can't that be the house that Jim bought. Also, the Pam situation is simple, make a mess, clean it the **** up (self-censoring). Pam's not your mother or the housekeeper. The disrespect is real here :))

trivia, eating out of the garbage

[@bigwilly43729]

The house decision(s) work because neither one of them are making those decisions solely for themselves, as in, they are (or at least think they are) making those decisions for the benefit of the other person more than themself. Pam probably would have been fine in some standard Scranton apartment with Jim & Jim would have been fine living out his days in Scranton without Athleap. As is a common theme in episodes like this, they show three sides to the same problem. The normal people (Jim & Pam) handle it like normal people and it works out for the reasons stated above. The more “eccentric” characters handle it either wrong & are kinda remorseful (Michael) or are just downright shitty (Ryan). Also, clean your mess at the office & there won’t be a need for a note. So so so gross.

[@rapidprimus]

Love that analogy. But I would say the three sides are: Normal (Jim and Pam), Eccentric (Michael, Kevin, Phyllis, Toby) and Batshit Crazy (Dwight, Meredith, Angela, Creed).

[@NostalJackMusic]

Are there multiple cuts of this episode or something? I’ve watched the show through this far 5 times and I usually recognize every scene or clip in these videos, but this is the first time I didn’t. Like of course I remember the microwave scene and Pam leaving the note, but I do not AT ALL remember there being like 5 notes hung up there back and forth. Or when Angela had the one with a penis drawn on it? How do I not remember any of this? Haha is there some kind of conspiracy going on here?

[@stevenginsberg8471]

As as fan of the show, I never found Toby so repulsive like Michael felt about him. Yeah, he was vindictive towards Jim, but both Dwight and Ryan did much worse to Jim. The Toby character is mainly there as a foil to and convenient scapegoat for Michael during the first 7 seasons. But he would not be on a list of my top 5 Office villians.
