Toby is standing in front of reception kind of staring
at Pam’s chair. Just then Pam enters through the main
doors.

        PAM
     Oh! Good morning, Toby! You’re here
     early.(beat) Do you need something?

        TOBY
     Uh, no, my mind was kind of… wandering…
     uh… yeah, I like to get in early every
     now and then. Nice to have an empty
     office to work in on occasion.

        PAM
    (hanging up coat)
     Oh, you just reminded me of something
     that I’ve been meaning to ask you for
     AGES! On Beach Day when Michael made
     you stay here… what did you do all day?

         TOBY
     Hm. What did I do? I… uh… watched a movie
     or two… played a few games. Uh… took a nap.

Pam laughs.

        TOBY(cont’d)
     Yeah. Um… I lowered Michael’s chair again.
     I, uh…

        PAM
     Wait. That’s you! Oh my God.
     (laughs)
     He thinks it’s the cleaning crew!

        TOBY
     Yeah… (laughs) About once a week I
     come in and do that.

        PAM
     It makes him crazy! And he STILL doesn’t
     know how to fix it! (laughs)

       TOBY
     That’s the best part.(laughs)
     He just…

Just then Michael enters and Pam and Toby stifle
themselves.

        MICHAEL
     Wow… it’s the Dunder-Mifflin production of
     Beauty and the Beast! (laughs to camera)
     Beauty and Tobeast!
     (laughs again, then points at camera)
     Don’t sue me, Disney. Seriously, though…
     You really know how to ruin a morning, Toby.

        PAM
     That was really, really rude, Michael.

        MICHAEL(taken aback)
     Wow. Pam… sleeping with the enemy? Well,
     not sleeping with… THAT would never happen!
    (laughs then looks at a humorless Pam and Toby)
     Ok. Fine. I’ll leave you and your DIVORCED
     new boyfriend… Jim will love that.

Michael laughs again and heads to his office.
Pam and Toby look at each other.

        PAM(embarrassed)
     I’m… sorry, Toby.

        TOBY
     That’s ok… just wait for it.

Pam looks at him puzzled but Toby holds his hand up.
There is a moment of silence.

        MICHAEL(offscreen)
     Oh, man! Why do they keep doing
     this to my chair?!?

Pam and Toby cover their mouths and silently laugh.
