The flaming printer storyline that's been building up steam for a few episodes finally came to the forefront after someone leaks to the press. Sabre is now in a bit of trouble, and it's up to Michael Scott and Jo to clean up the mess.

Michael Scott has always had a rather flimsy moral compass. This week's episode finds him at his lowest, knowingly having an affair with Donna and rubbing it in everyone's face. "The Chump" is about Michael finding his way—with the help of that vaudevillian goofball, Andy Bernard.

"Body Language" was another episode returning to territory The Office has traveled so well: Michael's failed love life. Seriously, the guy has the savior-faire of a piece of Ikea furniture.

It’s been almost a month since the last time we saw a new episode of The Office. In that time ice volcanoes in Iceland melted the sky, some guy for the San Jose Sharks scored on his own team in overtime, and Jack Bauer’s been at the forefront of two silent clocks.

So this is the episode where Jim gets his old job back, Kathy Bates practically steals the show, and Andy almost gets with two different girls in the Scranton office. Suffice it to say, "Manager and Salesmen" was an awesome installment.

It looks like that banker must have really enjoyed all of those hilarious clips Michael Scott showed him, because Dunder Mifflin found a buyer. In this week's episode, the gang meets this mysterious new mother company, Sabre...
