About this episode

The episode features a draft of the subplot lines from The Office, focusing on the B and C stories that enhance the series.

"Last night, I dreamed that the number two was the most valued number in the world.

This week we’re drafting Office plot lines! But not the main story, the B and C stories that make up our favorite episodes. We go through and draft all of the amazing, hilarious, and iconic storylines that go into the series. And naturally we cover all the bedtime stories, potential vampires, and wooden mallards that go into these episodes.
