Jim and Pam get suspended, but they're thrilled about it.

Post "Secretary's Day."

Karen thinks that a small party - her apartment is NOT huge - of a select few coworkers, to celebrate her recent move to her very cool new apartment, is a fantastic and totally non-problematic idea. Jim wants her to get to know them. No?

Jim is... unconvinced. He suspects that there are agendas at play here.

But, as she says, it's only one night. What could possibly go wrong? 

Could this be another season 3 fixer???

It’s 1964, and Jim Halpert honestly believes his only calling in life is to inherit his family’s appliance store, with a passion for jazz music and drumming on the side. Opportunity knocks in the form of a drumming gig for a band performing at a local college talent show, bringing the group recognition for the song they play. But, with the four of them and the lead singer’s adorable, redheaded girlfriend leading the charts by storm, what will come of their newfound fame?

A few months later, Michael gets a letter.

“He wants to get over Pam. He wants to, badly. The only thing he wants more is to be with her, and that isn’t going to happen.”

My (canon-compliant) take on Pam and Jim's journey through Season 3, beginning with "The Merger." Includes flashbacks.

This is Pam's POV of the weekend after Casino Night and what could have happened.
