Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Michael gets jealous when he finds out that Holly is still dating A.J.; Jim is paranoid when Dwight starts a snow ball war with him.

Our Take

The snowball war is the real draw here, with Dwight turning Jim’s smug confidence into genuine panic, and the payoff gags land hard. The Holly storyline tugs a bit harder than it needs to, but Michael’s awkward jealousy still produces some painfully funny moments. It’s a strong half of the Christmas special, though the A.J. material drags whenever the snowballs aren’t flying. Worth your time.
