Trivia

During the talking head scene where Michael is explaining why he spent so much on magic items, you can see the fake thumb on his hand. It seems he was going to use the prop but it got cut from the final edit.

User Reviews

Not a favourite.

I'm not a huge fan of this episode. I see how it is a nice addition to the episode 'Booze Cruise', but it just seems unnecessary. It does build on Michael and Jim's characters, and it does add to the Jim and Pam love story, but it's just really forgettable.
