  • Meredith [reading the game box cover] Belles, Bourbon and Bullets, a murder mystery dinner party game.
  • Andy I'm a little worried I might have asked out Naughty Nellie and not Erin. Which would be a whole lot less appealing, because Naughty Nellie says yes to everyone. And she might be a murderer.
  • Voice on CD player We still don't know who the murderer is.
  • Phyllis You know, I think I'm supposed to say something to Pam, I mean, Deb, OK? [in character] I overheard you asking the butler where the pistol was kept.
  • Andy [Andy, Michael, and Dwight are pointing imaginary guns at each other] I didn't do it!
  • Michael On the count of three we're all going to put down our guns.
  • Dwight how can you hold them off until your clan arrives? You cannot go wrong with a throat punch [screams, pretends to punch Meredith in the throat]
  • Jim So let's just say that Dwight has come at you with the throat punch. Now how would you, Dwight, defend against it?
