  1. I’m totally starting to imagine things, because I thought I spotted a tiny Pam baby bump when the volleyball deleted scene first started. My eyes are playing tricks on me because of the Jam baby anticipation!

  2. The season two cameo is Jake!!!!!!!!!! Too bad he wasn’t in the episode

  3. Honestly, I would have preferred these scenes over the whole pregnancy storyline.

  4. “Well actually, my hands work completely on their own without my brain even knowing it.” <–Brilliant.

  5. It’s a shame we didn’t see Karen at all in this episode. It would have been interesting to see the love triangle back together again.

  6. I wish they kept that volleyball scene. It was a bit like the three stooges with Jim as Moe.

  7. Have these deleted scenes stopped playing for anyone else? I hit play and the blue circle thingy just spins and nothing happens. It does this on both my PC and my Mac, which is strange.

  8. Haha I totally do that Stanley thing where I make my friends stand in front of the sun for me. Also WHOA!! Look at how big Meredith’s son has gotten!!

  9. @10:

    Yeah, I’ve had this problem as well. I had to refresh the page a couple times for the video to finally play. Weird.

  10. Haha JAKE! Poor kid. That’s right, we haven’t seen him since Take Your Daughter to Work Day.

  11. I so wish this had been a 1-hour episode!! Judging from this first deleted scene, there are so many little snippets that would have made the episode even more fun! Darn…

  12. Is it just me, or does knowing Jim Halpert is going to be a father make these little scenes that much more adorable?

    Deleted scenes are like 27 different kinds of awesome.

  13. Maybe they can do a supersized episode online like they did for (forgive me, the name escapes me) that other episode towards the beginning of the season. Tanster, got any pull with this? :)

  14. #10 – Sometallusjinks – Yes it happens to me to. It’s really hit or miss and I haven’t noticed if closing other windows or programs has helped. I use both kinds of computers too. I usually leave it alone for a little bit or refresh the page and then it’s okay. But yes it’s totally a pain.

  15. Wow! That really, REALLY should have been in the episode. More of this please, and less boring sketch “comedy” from Michael and Holly. (I liked their other scenes, I just thought Slumdunder Mifflinaire went on a little too long).

  16. I wish this scene made it into the final cut! I liked seeing Jake all grown up and Dwight, Andy, and Jim poking fun at Utica.

  17. I shouted, “Hey, that’s Tanster!” When I saw you on the show. My husband thought your expression was very funny. Congrats!!!

  18. I really hope there is a third deleted scene where Jim spikes the ball in Charles’ face. Is that mean?

  19. Maybe I’m looking too hard but are you in the background on both these deleted scenes?

    For my son and I looking for you added to the joy of watching the show.

    [from tanster: i don’t think i’m in scene #1, but yes, you can see me for a split second in scene #2! — i’m sitting on the grass. good eye! :) ]

  20. I’m finally convinced, it seems like Charles is a little jealous of Jim and that’s where a lot of his ‘bullying’ comes from.

    And, now that the season is over showing the Thursdays @ 9 at the end, just seems a little cruel. (:

  21. Tanster, wouldn’t it be awesome if you got to be in the DVD commentary!

  22. What is with Charles? I hope he stays in NY for Season 6. No offense to Idris Elba, but that character is annoyingly one dimensional.

  23. How in the world do they get the same actors to always come back? That kid who played Jake was on 3 years ago! This seems like the only show that strives for consistency. I don’t know if they make these actors sign contracts that last forever or if other shows are just lazy to track people down or what. But I really enjoy the continuity.

  24. What the heck is Charles’ deal? My mom would tell him, “You’ve run it into the ground. Don’t stand there and bark at it.” If you are going to harass Jim, there are plenty of things to harass him about. Homeless Hair.

    And WHY OH WHY is David Wallace okay with this?

  25. I hope we see Charles get hit with a volleyball at some point. That would make my year!

  26. If you’re having loading problems, it may have something to do with having an ad-blocker, and my guess is that nbc has upgraded their site code to more strictly enforce the ads (no ad, no video). Adjust your settings for the nbc and/or officetally websites accordingly. The videos all worked again for me after that.

  27. :( Those deleted scenes were amazing. Why weren’t they in this episode instead of some of the other… unnecessary… stuff?

  28. whoa, jake’s all growed up! and surly as ever. and was that creed’s only scene?

  29. HA! Whelp, I guess that explains who ended up winning the volleyball game lol

  30. The answer is probably obvious but just to clarify: do you know if this third deleted scene was supposed to be the tag before they determined that Pam and Jim finding out she’s pregnant was the best way to completely end the episode?

  31. Aw, that would’ve been a great tag ending. They didn’t even need the first part with Oscar, just Dwight & Meredith arguing.

  32. Does anyone know which branches are left? Nashua was in the green shirts and Utica was in the blue shirts. It looked like Scranton also played a light blue team, and I thought I saw purple shirts and maybe pink shirts elsewhere in the episode.
