They definitely should’ve done pretzel day for Stanley. Also, that scene was so forgettable for Pam. It would have been better to use the art show clip or when she takes care of Dwight when he gets a concussion. Also, did Daryl get a clip? Also, the fact that Andy wasn’t singing or playing an instrument is basically a crime.

The one where they compete to see what Stanley won't notice, though..

[@sedronee741]

Pan isn’t that great of a person or character. She definitely lets people walk all over and she also is very observant. She doesn’t actually DO anything for herself or other people. The beach scene perfectly sums up Pam. She was not a key character to the show. Which is what made her perfect for the show.

there are better scenes to sum up Jim and Dwight I'd say! Jim has a deeper personality than just being a pranker.
