They lead you into the "Biggest Fan" level, where the titular Fan is playing ''[[GameWithinAGame Accounting]]''; you can then take his goggles and put them on yourself, which essentially leads you to restarting the game from the accounting office... aside from the Fan calling you several times in place of your employers]].
