Goofs
When Michael is acting as a prison inmate, the purple bandanna he is wearing constantly changes positions on his head throughout the scene. The flower on the middle appears on the left and right and middle through the whole speech.

Quotes
Dwight Schrute: Prison Mike, what's the very, very worst thing about prison?
Angela Martin: [softly to Dwight] Don't encourage him, Dwight.
Michael Scott: [as Prison Mike] The worst thing about prison was the... was the Dementors. They were flying all over the place and they were scary and then they'd come down and they'd suck the soul out of your body and it hurt!
Karen Filippelli: Dementors, like in "Harry Potter"?
Michael Scott: No, not "Harry Potter." There are no movies in prison.

The only scene which was good was when he pretended to be a former prisoner, everything else was somewhere ok. I'm not saying this episode was bad or something, but considered that this season is one of the strongest so far it wasn't as good as other episodes.
