In last week's episode, this blog's all-time favorite
character returned with gifts. And when I say "gifts," I
mean gifts for the writers of this blog; not so much for the
Scranton branch. That's right, Dunder Mifflin's all-time
leader in litigation liability for the company, Todd Packer,
returned to the show for (what just has to be) his final
hurrah.
The disgruntled former employee returned ostensibly to apologize
as part of a 12-step process. Pam quickly sees that he is just
insulting his former co-workers "in the form of
apologies." Nevertheless, Packer provides cupcakes to make up
for his past behavior. Although the cast members initially agreed
not to, everyone except Pam ended up eating the cupcakes. Of
course, the cupcakes were all laced with different drugs including
laxatives and hallucinogens.
