I'm here

Sorry about the LiveBlog last week. I will try my best to be here for the next episode and I might even skip out on the last practice before my first football game of the season, so that I can try to somehow work a LiveBlog/Finale party. I will definitely not miss the finale, I just may not have a party. Natascia did a great job solo last week and I don't have much to add except that I really enjoyed the episode. Now I'd like to talk about the final 2 episodes of the season.

Episode #65 "Job Fair"
Typical 2 part plot: 1) Michael tries to find an intern at a local job fair that just so happens to take place in the high school Pam attended. Expect her to be there eventually and expect Roy or people that know/knew Roy to cause some tension there. 2) Jim, Andy, and Kevin are on the golf course trying to land the "biggest client ever". I am super excited about this group. It's never been done and after the recent connection between Andy and Kevin with the parking situation, this should be good. I hope they don't have another Jim is incompetent moment, I feel he should get excited about this (a la Office Olympics) and show how great of a salesman he is. Also, expect a PB&J moment towards the end where Jim fain proposes to Pam. This time however I think events at the Job Fair will cause Pam to get very upset leading into the finale.

Episode #66 "Goodbye Toby" (might not be the actual title) (FINALE!)
I don't want to speculate much about the Finale. So, I'll just give you what's up on Wikipedia and talk a little about that.

"It’s Toby’s goodbye party at Dunder Mifflin and Michael demands a huge celebration that matches the joy in his heart. Angela, sick of Michael’s unreasonable last minute demands, refuses, and Michael turns to Phyllis to take over the party planning committee. Meanwhile, Dwight and Meredith haze the new HR woman, Holly."
-Wikipedia

Finally! I've been calling for the Michael/Toby back story all season and if we don't get it here, I will literally scream. Also, if you thought last week's combinations of characters was different, look at the finale. Toby-Michael (classic), Angela-Michael-Phyllis (more short and old jokes), Dwight-Meredith (WOW, that's crazy). Also, you see who's names are not in the preview? Jim and Pam. This is what The Office does every finale. Make you think it's about a different plot line, when we all know what we're looking for.

As long as they keep throwing in the one Creed moment each episode, these cannot fail. Please direct your comments or opinions to the comment link at the bottom or e-mail us: ustheofficeca@gmail.com . We respond to all e-mails. That is, unless you're really weird or annoying.
