* ProductPlacement: During Jim and Dwight's over-the-phone attempt to get Packer to Florida, Dwight insists Packer get a butterbeer at ''Ride/TheWizardingWorldOfHarryPotter''. Jim is notably irritated by this; it should be noted Dwight is a huge ''Harry Potter'' nerd, so this is in-character for him as opposed to just being put in by the [=NBCUniversal=] higher-ups (the episode aired about eight months after the area opened at Islands of Adventure).

In a later scene while he and Jim are plotting, Dwight goes to open his drawer to get a pen... only to find it jammed, leaving him progressively irritated.

* MakeItLookLikeAStruggle: Played for laughs. Pam acquieses to Andy's request for a new computer by covertly suggesting that he would have to [[MakeItLookLikeAnAccident break his old computer]]; Andy proceeds to abuse the crap out of it by putting food in the CD tray and accepting all pop-ups. Then in order to not make it look like Andy got a fresh new computer, Pam puts stickers all over it and scuffs it up to make it look like a trashy old computer she found lying around the warehouse.
