Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Dwight and Todd Packer try to win over Nellie by trying to sleep with her; Jim worries that Cathy is trying to hit on him; The office staff works late.
Our Take
A mixed bag that leans on tired sitcom setups. The Jim and Cathy subplot is uncomfortable without being funny, though John Krasinski sells the paranoia well. Dwight and Packer competing for Nellie’s attention has some real laughs, and the Florida extras get nice moments. It coasts on cast charm more than actual jokes, but it’s an easy enough way to spend a half hour.
