Quotes

Michael Scott: I don't get why parents are always complaining about how tough it is to raise kids. You joke around with them, you give them pizza, you give them candy, you let them live their lives. They're adults, for God's sake.

The Tragic Side of Michael?
25 July 2006 | by (High Point, NC) – See all my reviews

Though not the strongest of the show's episodes, this one certainly contains some classic moments. The scene in which Stanley reprimands Ryan for getting a little too close to his daughter is hilarious, as is the dialog between Dwight and Meredith's son; we start to see here why Angela thinks Dwight is right for her.

This episode also contains some surprisingly touching moments, such as Michael's tenderness towards Toby's daughter. Plus, we get a glimpse at Michael's amusingly-tragic childhood, which leads to the most emotional view of him that we have seen so far. And, of course, we see even more evidence that Jim is so much better for Pam than Roy is.
