JENNA [00:24:33] No. People become great by daring, risking and suffering, and not by placing themselves by the wayside in parasitic and vile expectancy. JENNA [01:04:48] What's next week's episode? Did you see that her name is still listed as Gould? I'm on the clock it. He said, was Rainn Wilson sick during this episode because his voice sounds like he might have a cold. Dwight: They are either going to say yes. He leaves. Jim is irritated, which fuels Dwight and Michael. They're like, "Leslie, are you OK"? The Italian people, the Fascist people deserve and will have victory. So, Jim-.

ANGELA [00:14:10] Did you just say "chunk it"? 23 And the line has been crossed. Pam, I'm public speaking, so please stop public interrupting me.

And we stayed there as well. But there's more. This is the first time Michael has shown anything but admiration for Ryan. JENNA [00:54:26] So was it written in the script that you're wearing a hat and then wardrobe had to come up with hat choices? I come among you to look you firmly in the eyes, feel your temperature and break the silence which is dear to-me, especially in wartime. JENNA [00:00:06] We were on "The Office" together. Remember when he got Dwight to believe that Thursday was Friday? Most people who stay at the resorts are couples, but they do have single person rates available. ANGELA [00:16:03] I think maybe maybe with the stunt guy, he got a brisk little like tap or something. ANGELA [00:50:02] He chokes. He's the last one. And then he's like, I really hope I see the, the gal from "Battlestar Galactica". So I captivated the guy who captivated a thousand guys. I just like the idea of like some kind of reality championship where I can have beer and like a slice of pizza while doing my activity. Oh well, great episode anyway. Some of the smartest writing. Our fronts stretch for thousands of kilometers and are thousands of kilometers away. JENNA [00:19:09] That part wasn't planned. stream Dwight is sitting at his desk and he is talking about a sale on TiVo. He's tells Jim he should go to New Zealand and walk the "Lord of the Rings" trail. Dwight: Blood alone moves the wheels of history! Aww, hes so cute. Michael suggests that Pam practice for her bride's speech. But, yeah, I mean, the other thing, too, you should know is that Rainn really didn't want to miss work because he knew how much went into that day. ANGELA [00:35:06] Cars slid off the road into the railing. So, I mean, Dwight kind of starts panicking. JENNA [00:25:24] Yes. The same thing can be said as far as East Africa is concerned, where we were prepared to resist despite the distance and total isolation, which is a tribute to the will and courage of our soldiers. ANGELA [00:15:13] Because Rainn as Dwight is like all-In. ANGELA [00:02:08] It got serious. ANGELA [00:25:29] Did you look and see what all's inside? This is Creed, guys. ANGELA [01:05:35] For a free one month trial of Stitcher Premium use code "Office". JENNA [00:52:20] And we had a few fan questions. Pam's wedding color. Sam? I will meet my new challenges head-on, and I will succeed, and I will laugh in the faces of those who doubt me. And he's really nervous. But Dwight was like, I would have gone. The folks at TiVo said the audience reaction charts looked like an electrocardiogram. The Fascist revolution will make another decisive step to shorten social distances. Like this one (holding up printout), originally given by Benito Mussolini. Ryan: I know what I said. So you know how there was a big conversation about your hair in Valentine's? Kevin: You should go to Hedonism. I know. ANGELA [00:30:42] This sort of dates our show a little bit, too, because I know travel agents are still out there, but a lot of people now just go online. He's choking. Jim, upset at having to hear wedding planning at Pam's desk, calls a travel agent and arranges a trip to Australia. ANGELA [00:14:12] Oh, shut up. I use the shredder. getting old). I dont know, if I were a betting man, Id say he will have a fun weekend in Philadelphia. Before he leaves, Jim Halpert (John Krasinski), in retaliation for Dwight's cocky attitude, gives him tips on how to give public speeches. I was under that. JENNA [01:04:52] Oh, boy. I guess is what you could say. ANGELA [00:59:51] And they go up to the very first one they see and they walk in and it's the wrong one. Are you OK? So go get some pizza at Kugino's. JENNA [00:56:20] I know. I didn't tell anyone. ANGELA [00:02:22] I have a T-shirt on, a sweatshirt with a hoodie and then I have an enormous puffer over that. Leave me out of it. The Greek losses are very high and shortly it will be Spring, and as befits such a season our season-beautiful things will grow. Since we recognize these facts it is useless for the enemy to exaggerate the figures of its booty. And he asked Dwight if he's ready for his big speech. "[5], During the earlier scenes when Dwight is in Michael's office, Pam can be seen in the background talking to Meredith. ANGELA [00:05:52] Is that our book? Season 2, Episode 17 written by Paul Lieberstein and directed by "Action"! JENNA [00:47:04] Mostly Mussolini, I believe. ANGELA [00:53:06] They wanted it, for the audience to be unsure whether Dwight was gonna be a hit or not. JENNA [01:00:24] Okay. It was the most I'd ever seen. JENNA [00:14:29] Might be. ANGELA [00:15:27] Who is standing by accounting. And I had written all about how much fun I had on this episode filming with Kate in the background of that scene. ANGELA [00:18:21] I don't know, Jenna, how it went down. ANGELA [00:00:12] Each week we will break down an episode of "The Office" and give exclusive behind the scenes stories that only two people who were there can tell you. Dwight, to Jim's annoyance, surfs the internet to find things to buy with his prize money. So when Leslie lost his balance, he started steamrolling back. Several people compared Guilfoyle's time at the mic to Season 2, Episode 17 of The Office, "Dwight's Speech" the one where Dwight wins the award for Dunder Mifflin salesman of the year and . Because I asked Kent Zbornak and Paul Lieberstein, why is there a man dressed as a wizard in the background? ANGELA [00:18:16] Leslie is no longer there. What is happening? "Did Rainn actually have the speech written on that paper"? ANGELA [00:28:24] By the way, that's the smartest Meredith was written in the whole series. He said a doctor came and said, you cannot go to work. This has nothing to do with me. Ninth, that Fascist Italy dared measure herself against Great Britain is a matter of pride that will live through the centuries. ANGELA [00:31:29] The first time you see me kind of nice and close up. Have you ever asked yourselves in an hour of meditation - which everyone finds during the day - how long we have been striving for greatness? ANGELA [01:03:37] He is basically said to her, I'm sorry, but I cannot be there when you marry someone else. Dwight was named "Salesman of the Year" and had to give a speech. JENNA [00:00:19] We're the "Office Ladies". gQij70wR ANGELA [00:24:43] I think Jim had motivation because Dwight's rubbing it in his face. ANGELA [00:50:44] Huh. I did too, when I went to Europe. ANGELA [00:16:59] That's what I thought. JENNA [00:50:13] He really does. They're not worthy of the mini-fridge safe. Americans who will read what I say should be calm and not believe in the existence of a big bad wolf who wants to devour them. They have that back and forth. Thats the word on the street anyway. Jim: Okay, I didnt actually major in public speaking. Am I wrong? There were five "dummy wranglers" who moved the dummies around for each shot. And Rainn said actually that the voice thing is because he was screaming during the speech and he kind of blew out his voice. Michael Sciannamea of TV Squad wrote that he wonders if the Jim-Pam relationship "will reach some sort of resolution or become a season-ending cliffhanger". ANGELA [00:09:46] He's really, really good in this episode. ANGELA [00:24:12] Well, I have real beef with Michael on this episode. Keep going. ANGELA [00:56:51] Ryan is being such a you know what. OK. Where are we at? But then he was directed not to do that again. And he used it during his stint as manager for that week at Dunder Mifflin. (More applause, then Michael sneaks out while Dwight laughs maniacally.). And like shoved him. At 2 minutes, 40 seconds, there's a shot of Jim's coffee mug and it says, quote, "Together we build a better Scranton, restoring the pride". Neither in Rome nor Berlin are such fantastic plans as this prepared. TOGETHER THAT WE PREVAIL. "Dwight's Speech" is the seventeenth episode of the second season of The Office and the 23rd overall. JENNA [00:53:14] So Kent said the first take was pretty unusable. With the outbreak of hostilities on Sept. 1, 1939, we had just finished two wars which imposed relatively modest sacrifices in human life but had forced us to make an enormous logistic and financial effort. yeah, i dont know, i didnt think it was a great episode, some parts, but not the great overall episodes like i felt the ones before the break were. They're doing Pam's wedding invites. JENNA [01:03:24] Her wedding is June 10th. Oh, here's something interesting. So there are clothing optional sections of the resort and then there are nude sections. And we're like, wait. Ping I also have to say go Jim! However, at 14 minutes, 19 seconds, there is a shot of the audience. Congratulations to Amber, Jaclyn, and Ping for winning OfficeTally.coms iTunes Drawing this week! I come really close to getting a strike. When he tells Pam about it later, she is initially excited, until he tells her that he's leaving June 8, meaning he will not be able to attend her wedding. He can't remember. ANGELA [00:20:00] These were the days where like, if you had a VHS player, you could record one of your shows. They wanted me to come out a little bit to the edge of accounting. They're all like, what? He tosses it to Phyllis. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. It was written by Paul Lieberstein and directed by Charles McDougall. Dwight: When I was in the sixth grade, I was a finalist in our schools spelling bee. We kept it very, very cold mostly for Steve who runs hot and he would have to wear the suits. So now we go to Pam's talking head and she says, listen, I just I have to do my wedding planning at the office, you know? The speech scene employed over 500 extras, an unusual occurrence for the series. Dwight: Thank you, Angela. There was an "Office" convention in 2007. JENNA [00:42:43] I just like that all of us all the time. [16], "Dwight's Speech" received mostly positive reviews. ANGELA [00:47:01] It is it, but it is a hodgepodge. And it is really the beginning of what I like to call "Ryan sass", that's going to really kick into effect later in this episode. Fourth, with this situation things are diametrically opposed to conditions from 1914 to 1918. JENNA [00:04:38] And five dummy wranglers, people who carried them around the room and put them in different places depending on the shots. ANGELA [00:52:03] You have to, you have, it has to be crickets. There were comparisons galore, to figures as varied as Cruella DeVille and Adolf Hitler, but a lot of people likened the speech to The Office character Dwight Schrute's Mussolini-inspired . The Season Two DVD contains a number of deleted scenes from this episode. I've never loved mail more than this mail. When Michael dejectedly leaves Dwight's speech, he walks past Angela standing in the back of the ballroom, recording the speech with a handheld video camera. ", "No revolution is worth anything unless it can defend itself. ANGELA [00:00:50] "Thanks, I was driving when you were like, 'Good morning, Office Ladies!'". Then he goes to Jim for advice. JENNA [00:35:26] No, but he'll never act again. Jim The great speakers thoughout history were not joke tellers, they were people of passion. "Dwight's Speech" is the seventeenth episode of the second season of The Office and the 23rd overall. The industrial power of the United States certainly is great, but for aid to be useful supplies must safely reach England and also be of such quantity as not only to replace the destruction already inflicted and that which will come to the industrial plants of Britain, but also to bring about superiority over Germany. ANGELA [01:04:36] They had that moment on "Booze Cruise". Four minutes, one second. JENNA [00:18:18] Oh. JENNA [00:38:50] We're gonna give you ten minutes to take off your stuff. I didn't pick it. Her wedding is going to be June 10th. You know what? After Dwight's failed announcement, Michael tries to find a joke "that not even you [Dwight] can ruin." "Did we hire a bunch of extras or did we just use existing hotel people"? JENNA [00:01:25] Yeah. We call bread bread and wine wine, and when the enemy wins a battle it is useless and ridiculous to seek, as the English do in their incomparable hypocrisy, to deny or diminish it. But I do thank you for writing in. ANGELA [00:49:37] He's having a minor panic attack. JENNA [00:10:18] It's just all "Office" facts. Jim: Yeah, Im definitely going. No, that's Kent Zbornak's book. Dwight's Speech: BLOOD ALONE MOVES THE WHEELS OF HISTORY! Toby (standing up and air-toasting): To Amsterdam. Leslie went flying. He reminds of a litle kid which is so cute. And I had a fan question from Madeline Ethington. Sam, wake up in there. He can take that. ANGELA [00:54:48] So they went with that one. ANGELA [00:58:02] Some woman who sat there who didn't have her I.D. Wilson claims it is the only time he ever missed a day of work on the show. I remember shooting this, the thing that made me laugh on the day is Kelly's line. WE ARE WARRIORS! Dwight: I say, salesmen and women of the world, unite. ANGELA [00:25:47] OK. Though we certainly are totalitarian and will always be so, we have our feet on hard ground. JENNA [00:07:44] I reached out to Kent about this as well, and he said he always liked to put these location shoots on a Tuesday or Wednesday. And Michael's like, no, no, they'd remember. ANGELA [00:27:01] Clearly, look at that mini-fridge. You know that part when he does Michael Winslow and he does all the different like, sounds. a!_hAI/O5uCFVlg2_5'" 2&Z.etK=.*t&]b=Z&}i'KMd;R^,\8YX N[i=2icA+%wK8-b)FOn^l?lou@g]o9\_z|#LP'*_l>~0J$1#BTT!Zwjm! At 17 minutes, 34 seconds, he says. ANGELA [00:46:15] Not true. JENNA [01:05:29] For ad-free versions of the show and our bonus episodes, "Candy bag". The Danubian and Balkan world cannot ignore and does not ignore the Axis, Hungary and Rumania have joined the Tripartite Pact. That was a really hard one to get through. I don't remember. And he's like, you've got to wave your arms and pound your fist. Seventh, when Great Britain falls, then the war will be ended, even if by any chance it should die out slowly in other countries of the British Empire. I thought this episode was so funny Finally something else to watch other than Seinfeld repeats for me. It is implied that Michael has never been to a wedding in his adult life despite being in his 40s. ANGELA [00:18:54] Little little catches there in the background. JENNA [00:07:43] I think it was a Wednesday? Jim: No. Europe therefore, with the exception of Portugal, Switzerland and, for a little while yet, Greece, is all outside the orbit of Britain and against Britain. What's your pick. o95E SiiAJs{tp|2[:N[[K ["EBJ-89THPKZRZmhQ|HR. And here's why. ANGELA [00:15:19] He shoves the heck out of Creed and then he runs towards Leslie David Baker. JENNA [00:57:42] Yeah.

I'm, I'm in a relationship. He's like a little bratty kid. What's more, his shout-out is in Mandarin, even though the primary language in Hong Kong is Cantonese. JENNA [00:58:07] Dwight immediately clicks into Michael's story. JENNA [00:26:34] What, like a couple of items like wrapped in mesh with some twine. JENNA [00:56:54] He really is. Dwight practices his speech, and Michael criticizes his delivery. JENNA [00:02:11] What were you? But Randall and Matt are camera operators. So she's really, she really went for it. "I say to you, and you will understand, that it is a privilege to fight! Young people, TiVo was like a VCR. Rainn said that he remembers at one point he went off script and he improvised. During that brief period of time we faced and overcame exceptional difficulties. I really looked into it. And I just I just wanted to shake Pam and be like, if you don't know now, then you'll never know. Now, Paul Lieberstein, who wrote this episode, he did an interview once where he said, yeah, I think Jim did eventually take that trip, but he moved the trip.
