Added DiffLines:

Michael reveals that he is still seeing Donna after learning that she’s married in the previous episode. Although he tries to rationalize it and play himself up as the good guy in his situation, the staff openly disapprove of his actions, particularly Andy due to his previous experience.

Meanwhile, Jim and Pam have trouble staying awake at work due to their new baby, and Angela tries to make Dwight honor their pregnancy contract.

!!Tropes

* CallBack: Having had a cheating fiancé before, Andy is naturally the most vocally opposed to Michael seeing Donna.
* GroinAttack: Dwight repeatedly does this to himself, desperate not to get Angela pregnant.
