[[WMG: The warehouse workers lottery win was fraudulent.]]
One of the warehouse workers, Hidetoshi, is on the run after killing a Yakuza boss. A few years later, he and the other workers win the lottery and quit. Or rather, he finally got his paycheck for killing the guy. He was probably waiting for the dust to settle in America before his Yakuza contact (probably a rival of the boss Hidetoshi killed) delivered the money. Hidetoshi was so thankful for the friendship the other workers extended to him, he offered to split the winnings with them.

[[WMG: Andy became a bad salesman because of anger management]]
When Andy first showed up in Stamford, he was Regional Director Of Sales. Which he wouldn't have been if he wasn't a good salesman. After he is transfered to the Scranton branch, he flips out and punches a hole in the wall and gets sent to anger management. After he comes bak, he is a much nicer person. By the fourth and fifth seasons, Andy is said to be a mediocre-to-bad salesman. By the time Michael leaves and gives Andy his client list, Andy can't even make it a half hour before he loses a client. Is it possible that being an aggressive jerk is what got Andy his sales, and anger management took away what was working for him?

[[WMG: David Wallace uses Michael to leak information he doesn't want to reveal himself.]]
David Wallace is generally depicted as a smart, effective business manager... except he has a tendency to allow information that should (in theory) remain confidential to be revealed to Michael, who is notorious for being unable to keep a secret without eventually blurting it out. Since there's no real reason why David would assume Michael would be able to keep a secret ''this'' time and he's no fool, the only logical answer is that David actually ''wants'' this information to be leaked but wants to maintain plausible deniability and give himself a fall guy as cover, knowing that Michael cannot help himself but blow the secret.

[[WMG: Creed is not the shady character he appears to be.]]
Creed Bratton is as lazy as he appears to be, but the shady criminal activities he appears to be involved in is him pranking the documentary crew. He resents being filmed because he doesn't want the company to see him goofing off. So he comes up with things he thinks they don't want in the documentary, like implying that he's a criminal. It backfires because they find it interesting. He then decides to have fun with it. That's why it starts with small things and then they get more and more outrageous, like appearing to be splattered with fresh blood and being led off by the FBI in the finale. Do you really think the FBI would really let someone arrested for federal crimes pause to give a philosophical speech to a film crew and then sing a song while accompanying himself on guitar?

[[WMG: The David Brent who appears in ''Series/TheOfficeUS'' is not exactly the same David Brent who appears in ''Series/TheOfficeUK'']]
When David Brent briefly meets Michael Scott, he doesn't seem to really react to the film cameras following around Michael, and since the two men bond over their shared similarities, it's perhaps a little surprising that Brent didn't mention his similar brush with fame. The reason? This version of David Brent never had that brush with fame.

The reason there are so many cameras following its employees, sometimes without their consent (unless Dwight agreed to have his affair with Angela recorded, or Michael's okay with a camera recording him sleep just in case he gets a phone call) is because The Illuminati is watching. The odd behavior of some of the employees is also due to brainwashing or recruiting - Erin's PopCulturalOsmosisFailure, for instance, and Jan's drop in competence in season 2. Toby was recruited when he left the Seminary. Of course, Dwight is completely oblivious to that fact - he, a paranoid survivalist, has no idea he's working for an AncientConspiracy.

If Devon were still around, Wallace would have gone to him instead of Ryan.
