Last week, I gave a fire safety talk, and nobody paid any attention.

It's my own fault for using PowerPoint.

PowerPoint is boring.

People learn in lots of different ways, but experience is the best teacher.

Today, smoking is going to save lives.

Does anyone smell anything smoky?

Did you bring your jerky in again?

Ahem.

Oh, my God!

Fire!

Oh, fire?

Oh my goodness.

What's the procedure?

What do we do, people?

The bones are dead.

Oh, how did that happen?

It's out in the hall.

No, we don't know that.

The smoke could be coming through an air duct.

Oh my god!

Okay, it's happening.

Everybody stay calm.

What's the procedure, everyone?

What's the procedure?

Stay f*ing calm!

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Everybody just f*ing calm down!

No, no, Michael, no!

Touch the handle.

If it's hot, there could be a fire in the hallway.

What does warm mean?

Oh my gosh, try to get the door.

Not a viable option.

What next?

Oh, here's a door.

Check that one out.

How's the handle?

It's warm.

Okay, go to the back door.

Well, another option.

Another option.

Jeez.

Okay, settle down, everyone.

No bunches.

Look at my purse.

Leave it, woman.

Get out of the way.

Go, go, go.

Things can be replaced, Phyllis.

People, human lives, however, can...

Ah, my hand.

That's hot.

This one's hot, too.

Okay, we're trapped.

Everyone for himself.

Okay.

Let's go.

Get out of my way.

Okay, okay.

Call.

Have you ever seen a burn victim?

Okay.

Procedure.

Exit options.

Where do we go, folks?

Use a what to cover the mouth?

A what?

A rag.

A damp rag, perhaps.

Let's remember those procedures.

What are the options?

That's the wrong way.

We've already tried that.

Remember your exit points.

Exit points, people.

What's next?

Stay alive.

I'm getting help.

Pull me out.

You're too heavy.

I only weigh 82 pounds!

They banned it!

How about 9 -1 -1?

Anyone?

9 -1 -1!

What do we do?

Use the surge of fear and adrenaline to sharpen your decision -making!

Okay, I am not dying here.

Come on.

What is that?

The fire's shooting at us!

What in the name of Kyle is going on?

Help!

Oh, my God!

100

Help!

101

Attention employees of Dunder Mifflin, this has been a test of our emergency preparedness.

102

There is no fire, it was only a simulation.

103

What?

104

Fire.

105

Not real.

106

This was merely a training exercise.

107

So, what have we learned?

108

Oh, come on, it's not real, Stanley, don't have a heart attack.

109

No, no, no, no, no. You will not die.

110

Stanley!

111

Stanley, you will not die!

112

Stanley!

113

Stanley!

114

Barack is president!

115

You are black, Stanley!

116

I'm gonna give him mouth -to -mouth.

117

No, no, no. Don't give him mouth -to -mouth for this.

118

You're gonna swallow this tongue.

119

Open your mouth!

120

Michael!

121

Don't swallow it!

122

I'm fine!

123

Leave me alone!

124

I'm saving it!

125

Uh, on or off?

126

Off?

127

Okay.

128

Oh.

129

What is on your face?

130

Is that a disguise?

131

Excuse me.

132

Clown paint.

133

ID badges are long overdue.

134

Security in this office park is a joke.

135

Last year I came to work with my spud gun in a duffel bag.

136

I sat at my desk all day with a rifle that shoots potatoes at 60 pounds per square inch.

137

Can you imagine if I was deranged?

138

How many of you have at one time gone to Toby to complain about another employee?

139

And did you get what you wanted? or were you merely listened to?

140

You forget about your problem, and you move on.

141

Merely listened to and forgot.

142

That is outrageous.

143

I love this place, and it pains me to see all of the negativity...

144

festering.

145

Okay.

146

Today, we are going to get everything out of these files and into the open where it can be resolved.

147

All right.

148

How about the Phyllis -Angela dispute?

149

You already did me.

150

That's what she said.

151

The thing is, Angela, you are in here an awful lot.

152

You have complained about everybody in the office except Dwight, which is odd because everyone else has had run -ins with Dwight.

153

Toby, by the way, what does redacted mean?

154

There is a file full of complaints in here marked redacted.

155

Yeah, it just means whoever complained came to me later and withdrew it, so I took their name off.

156

Okay.

157

There were a bunch of complaints about Dwight that were put in the redacted file about six months ago.

158

Wait.

159

If someone has a problem with me, why would they withdraw it six months ago?

160

Yes, Dwight tried to kiss me.

161

What?

162

And I didn't tell anyone because I'm not really sure how I feel about it.

163

That is not true.

164

Redacted.

165

Redacted!

166

Well, I'm not actually making a formal complaint.

167

I just really think we should talk about it.

168

Okay, question.

169

When a name is withdrawn, does that also apply to the permanent misbehavior file in New York?

170

Sure.

171

Someone complained that the men's room is whites only.

172

Stanley, you know that's not true.

173

I didn't say that.

174

And why is there a picture of a white man on the door?

175

okay phyllis you complained that angela is giving you dirty looks

176

and you tried to get off the party planning committee i never said any such thing angela

177

and i are close and also phyllis stanley says

178

that you cry too much and that bugs him stanley and i are close

179

He said close.

180

Okay.

181

Just take it.

182

Hey, you know what, Dwight?

183

Maybe we should get our photo ID taken together.

184

That doesn't make any sense.

185

Well, it saves time, you know, because we can just meet in the parking lot every morning, walking together.

186

Perfect.

187

Smile.

188

No. I never smile if I can help it.

189

Showing one's teeth is a submission signal in primates.

190

When someone smiles at me, All I see is a chimpanzee begging for its life

191

This came out really well

192

There you go

193

This is humongous I am NOT a security threat and my middle name is Kurt not fart.

194

What did I write?

195

I have another complaint for Jim's permanent file.

196

Talk to Michael.

197

I gave him the box.

198

What box?

199

I don't report you're snoring.

200

Oh.

201

I don't...

202

No!

203

No!

204

Four years of malfeasance unreported this can't understand.

205

Calm down.

206

No, you calm down.

207

Whose side is Toby on?

208

Whose side are you on?

209

Hey!

210

Him or me!

211

Him or me!

212

I can't work with Jim anymore.

213

Okay.

214

Either he goes or I go.

215

Twice.

216

You choose!

217

Stop!

218

One of us is out of here by the end of today!

219

There's a sales manager position open in Stamford.

220

Want me to call

221

Jan and tell her you're interested?

222

I could put in a good word for you, because I'll still be working here.

223

Transfer!

224

Transfer!

225

Everybody, transfer!

226

Transfer!

227

Transfer!

228

Okay, you two in the conference room with me.

229

Someone replaced all my pens and pencils with crayons.

230

I suspect Jim Halpert.

231

Everyone has called me Dwayne all day.

232

I think Jim Halpert paid them to.

233

Yes.

234

Five bucks each, and it was totally worth it.

235

This morning, I found a bloody glove in my desk drawer, and Jim Halpert tried to convince me I committed murder.

236

I think he may be the real murderer.

237

Jim Halpert said there was an abandoned infant in the woman's room.

238

When I went to save the child, I saw Meredith on the can.

239

Yeah.

240

You guys know me.

241

You know that I'm...

242

not one for fancy things, but there was this one thing.

243

I was in a fancy store, and it caught the corner of my eye

244

when I took Moe's down to the mall to get his blood pressure at the Rite Aid.

245

I thought, you know, maybe I deserve this.

246

You know, I've had a great crop yield this fall.

247

So what happened?

248

I went to the store, and I pressed the buzzer, and they looked right at me, and then they looked away.

249

And then I pressed the buzzer again, and they started taking pictures of me with their mobile phones.

250

I guess I'm not the kind of guy that's good enough for precious heirlooms.

251

You know what, Dwight?

252

You need to go back there, and you need to pretty woman their asses.

253

We should start our own mall.

254

Yeah!

255

Wait, wait, wait.

256

Actually, that's a really good idea, Kelly.

257

What did I say?

258

I talk a lot, so I've learned to just tune myself out.

259

Dwight, how about this? instead of a boycott you

260

and I together go down to that store and we teach those snobs a lesson no you and I and I,

261

I'm gonna come with you.

262

Okay.

263

Good.

264

All right.

265

Did you assume that I would automatically side with the rich, snobby shop owner?

266

How about now?

267

How about now?

268

How about now?

269

How about now?

270

Apparently, there's a famous

271

Hollywood movie from the 1980s, Beautiful Girl.

272

Pretty Woman.

273

Pretty Woman.

274

Apparently, it's one of the best revenge stories of all times, in which this sex worker, who is the protagonist... That can't be right.

275

Andy, how does it...

276

No, no, no. I want to hear you tell it.

277

Okay.

278

The sex worker is denied service at a fancy store because she does not look wealthy.

279

She later returns dressed in all the trappings of extravagant wealth, But instead of shopping...

280

Julia Roberts goes in the store, and she's like, I was in here yesterday, and you people wouldn't help me.

281

And the shop girl goes, oh.

282

And then Julia Roberts goes, you girls welcome commission, right?

283

And the girl's like, yeah.

284

And Julia Roberts goes, big...

285

Big mistake.

286

Huge.

287

I was telling...

288

I was telling that.

289

Is that what we're here for?

290

A crystal wizard.

291

I like it.

292

It's a pewter wizard holding a crystal.

293

Wait a second.

294

You know you can't buy that now, right?

295

And I can come back and get it for you later, but I'm saying right now, we can't do that.

296

Right.

297

Because I'm here for one thing, revenge.

298

That's it.

299

Let me know if I can help you with anything.

300

How about we talk to you when we're ready?

301

Okay.

302

Great.

303

Now's your chance.

304

Showing who you really are.

305

Pretending to be.

306

Excuse me, sir.

307

Yes.

308

I was here yesterday, and you refused to wait on me.

309

I remember, yes.

310

I'm terribly sorry about what happened.

311

You work on commission, don't you?

312

Stop, stop, stop.

313

No. Hold on one second.

314

Did you just say you remember him? Of course.

315

But, uh, he looks much less threatening now.

316

What does that mean?

317

We had a safety concern.

318

Uh, we very politely indicated that he'd be welcome back...

319

Good morning.

320

...if he were in accordance with our dress policy.

321

What?

322

But the blood -stained hands...

323

324

I happen to have been working a very long day

325

331

Ha.

332

Looks pretty good.

333

Thank you.

334

Please.

335

After you.

336

I'll take the wizard.

337

Okay.

338

It wasn't really about the wizard in the end.

339

It was about if a certain type of person can, in some small way, with some help and a lot of motivation,

340

and become a little bit more normal?

341

The answer may be no. Are you... Is that...

342

Yeah.

343

What are you doing?

344

It's my crystal now, wizard.

345

Ha!

346

351

I'm sorry, Pam.

352

I want to come to work, but I need you to come and pick me up.

353

Oh, God!

354

Hey, whoa, Michael.

355

Oh, God!

356

It's okay.

357

It's Jim.

358

Just say again really loudly what happened.

359

Okay.

360

I burned my foot very badly on my foreman grill, and I now need someone to come and bring me into work.

361

You burned your foot on a foreman grill.

362

I enjoy having breakfast in bed.

363

I like waking up to the smell of bacon sue me.

364

And since I don't have a butler, I have to do it myself.

365

So, most nights before I go to bed, I will lay six strips of bacon out on my George Foreman grill.

366

Then I go to sleep.

367

When I wake up, I plug in the grill.

368

I go back to sleep again.

369

Then I wake up to the smell of crackling bacon.

370

It is delicious.

371

It's good for me.

372

It's a perfect way to start the day.

373

Today, I got up, I stepped onto the grill and it clamped down on my foot.

374

That's it.

375

I don't see what's so hard to believe about that.

376

Could you come get me?

377

Uh, I have to stay here and answer the phone.

378

Okay, could someone come and get me, please, Ryan?

379

Michael, you should stay home and rest.

380

There's no toilet paper here, could Ryan?

381

Tell Ryan to bring toilet paper.

382

Could you tell him that?

383

Can you hop?

384

I tried hopping, Kevin, and I bumped my elbow against the wall, and now my elbow has a protuberance.

385

No one wants to pick me up?

386

What is going on?

387

What is going on?

388

Michael is sick, and he wants one of us to rescue him.

389

I'm not sick, I'm sick!

390

I'm coming, Michael!

391

I'm gonna save you!

392

Michael isn't coming!

393

I do not want to wait!

394

Okay?

395

Hold on, Michael!

396

I am coming!

397

Wait there!

398

Michael, why don't you call your girlfriend?

399

I don't have a girlfriend.

400

But you said you went out over there this weekend.

401

It was all made up.

402

Just someone come, okay?

403

Anyone.

404

Anyone but Dwight.

405

What's that?

406

What was that?

407

oh he hit the pole it's broken right

408

he can't oh Dwight Dwight oh he's still driving Dwight

409

you forgot your bumper I'm very sorry I did not know that you

410

You were wearing a hearing aid, and I just thought you were speaking abnormally.

411

And now, the black guy from the Police Academy movies,

412

Robot, Michael Winslow, anyone?

413

car starting all right dwight shrewd everyone good luck that is a tough crowd

414

Blood alone moves the wheels of history.

415

Have you ever asked yourselves in an hour of meditation, which everyone finds during the day, how long we have been striving for greatness?

416

Not only the years we've been at war, the war of work, but from the moment,

417

as a child, when we realized that the world could be conquered.

418

It has been a lifetime struggle, a never -ending fight, I say to you,

419

and you will understand that it is a privilege to fight.

420

We are warriors!

421

Salesmen of Northeastern Pennsylvania, I ask you, once more, rise and be worthy of this historical hour.

422

No revolution is worth anything unless it can defend itself.

423

Some people will tell you salesman is a bad word.

424

They'll conjure up images of used car dealers and door -to -door charlatans.

425

This is our duty to change their perception.

426

I say salesmen and women of the world, unite.

427

We must never acquiesce, for it is together, Together that we prevail!

428

We must never cede control of the motherland, for it is together that we prevail!

429

There you are!

430

What happened?

431

I got thirsty.

432

How'd it go?

433

It was amazing.

434

I wish you would have been there.

435

You would not believe what happened here.

436

What?

437

Something happened?

438

This woman came in, sat down, ordered a drink.

439

The bartender asked for her ID, which I thought was odd, because I picked her at like 35.

440

Weird.

441

Yeah, really weird.

442

So she's like, I don't have my ID.

443

Please give me one.

444

And he's like, I can't do that.

445

I can't serve you.

446

Con artist.

447

She might have been.

448

So she says, fine.

449

I will go to my room.

450

I will get my purse.

451

I will come back.

452

I'll show you my ID.

453

She hasn't come back yet.

454

She's probably in the room drinking from the mini bar.

455

Right?

456

Dwight gave a great speech.

457

That's a word on the street anyway.

458

And I entertained Dwight to no end with my bar story.

459

So I captivated the guy who captivated a thousand guys. Can you believe that?

460

A thousand guys.

461

I think I owe you one.

462

Sorry?

463

For talking sense and to help her.

464

The days in, room 228 was starting to get really depressing.

465

Oh, yeah, no, don't worry about it.

466

I mean, he was being ridiculous.

467

Yeah, but thanks.

468

Seriously.

469

Sure.

470

Okay.

471

472

473

You don't need to stay here.

474

I know.

475

I don't know.

476

So your PMSing pretty bad, huh?

477

It's kind of blurry.

478

That's better.

479

What kind of bear is best?

480

That's a ridiculous question.

481

False.

482

Black bear.

483

That's debatable.

484

There are basically two schools of thought.

485

Fact.

486

Bears eat beets.

487

Oh.

488

Bears...

489

Beets...

490

Battlestar Galactica.

491

Bears do not...

492

What is going on?

493

What are you doing?!

494

Last week, I was in a drugstore, and I saw these glasses.

495

Uh, $4.

496

And it only cost me $7 to recreate the rest of the ensemble, and that's a grand total of...

497

$11.

498

You know what?

499

Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, so i thank you identity theft is not a joke jim millions of families suffer every year

500

michael oh that's funny michael wow all these people here

501

502

503

you know what i bet a lot of them are wedding crashers no way did you ever see

504

that movie of course i saw it i saw wedding crashers accidentally

505

I bought a ticket for Grizzly Man and went into the wrong theater.

506

After an hour, I figured I was in the wrong theater, but I kept waiting.

507

That's the thing about bear attacks.

508

They come when you least expect it.

509

You know, I just wish, I wish I had the investigative powers to actually smoke some of these guys out, you know?

510

Once again, Jim, I will take care of this.

511

I will locate the wedding crashers and report them to Phyllis.

512

That way I won't have to get her a gift.

513

Best of luck, Phyllis.

514

Also, I'm going to need to see a copy of the guest manifest as well as photographs of the caterers.

515

I don't have that, Dwight.

516

Damn it, Phyllis.

517

Excuse me, sir.

518

How do you know the happy couple? Who?

519

The bride and groom.

520

What are their names?

521

Oh, I don't, uh, I'm not sure.

522

I get it, I get it.

523

Come on, freeloader, let's move it.

524

Come on, come on.

525

Okay, okay, where are we going?

526

You've got to find yourself another wedding to crash, my friend.

527

Attention, everyone.

528

Attention, please.

529

I'm supposed to ask if anyone has seen Uncle Al.

530

He is old and has brown eyes and dementia.

531

His family is very concerned.

532

It's a very serious situation.

533

Roxanne!

534

I'm now going to read aloud your submitted medical conditions.

535

When you hear yours read, please raise your hand to indicate that it is real.

536

If you do not, raise your hand.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
