I was so excited to recognize the drummer from this in tonight's episode that I had to post this week.
Overall, an enjoyable episode. Curious to see what happens from here with Jim.

Kevin continues to be the MVP this season, and at times, the reason to even watch. “From Star Trek?” was almost as awesome as “The male tree sticks his penis…” line from last week.
Pam’s no-win interrogations of Jim hit a little too close to home for me, however. Regardless, I am over those two.
"I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ."
I thought this was the best episode of The Office since before Steve Carell left the show. Certainly the best Pam and Dwight interaction in a good long while. The opening gag of "Andy's mom was in an accident" was amazing.
Didn't they do the same joke in an earlier episode w/ Michael?
Also, for any NewsRadio enthusiasts, I found out today that Maura Tierney will be guest starring as Robert's wife in an episode later this year. Apparently, it was announced in September. I'm not sure how this slipped by me.
When he asked her to come interrupt the metting with a faek call that he wasn't going to take. I turned to my wife and said: "She's going to tell him his Mom was killed." Our son proceeded to squak in the monitor, so when I got back from settling the little dude down, my wife said: "You called it."

They need to do something to perk up Robert California's character. This guy has been dead weight on the cast.

Which is really weird since at last season's end, there seemed to be so many possibilities for that character. He's almost too "normal" now for my tastes, though he has had flashes of brilliance (the Halloween story incorporating everyone's fears, for example).
And yeah, I did have flashbacks to Michael and Pam's deal where Pam gave him sticky notes of fake callers during meetings with higher-ups, until Ryan called his bluff and Michael had to do some improvisation. "Hiya buddy."
