Episode Summary & Review
Summary
After Dwight’s aunt dies, his sister and brother return for her funeral; Todd Packer returns to the office.
Our Take
This one’s a backdoor pilot for a Dwight spinoff that never happened, and it shows. The farm funeral scenes feel like a completely different show, with new characters we’re clearly supposed to care about but don’t yet. The office subplot with Packer is thin but offers a few laughs. Watchable, though mostly for curiosity.
