UGH. Tom and Pete are THE WORST. YOU SUCK TOM AND PETE.
I do always love a good Larissa-Jim pep talk. Glad she got through to him here. And the parallels of them going home to family for some needed perspective was a nice touch.
Author's Response:
Tom is a father. Let that sink in.
I mentioned that there's so little of Larisa in the show that there's a lot to work with, so writing her was a treat, along with pre-divorce Helene.

Always good to have some perspective from family. Loved the line that Cindy and Marcy are giving Tom and Pete the riot act. They quite probably deserve it considering what we see of them in canon. Larissa as the voice of wisdom is always a treat. Same with Helene. Yes Jim and Pam were upset with each other, but they're also imporant to each other and that relationship deserves to be worked on. Nice job.
Author's Response:
Yeah, really. I get why the other two Halpert brothers were written the way they were, but like... you can tone it down, guys. One of you has kids. Larisa is always fun to write since their's so much to work with, and considering Helene's perceptive nature was established back in "Sexual Harassment", she wouldn't want something so special ruined by their immaturity. Thank you!
