Hi, I only have a few comments, as the article is generally fine. You probably noticed that I did some minor copy editing which you are free to override.

• How did they duel? A fist fight, or what? (At first I assumed it was with swords.)
  • Only a physical fight. I added some language to make that more clear. — Hunter Kahn 23:48, 8 May 2010 (UTC)
• "During the scene when Andy returns to the office and confronts his co-workers amid long standing silence," - how is silence long standing in this situation?
  • I'm not sure I understand your comment. It's a scene where he goes in and there's a long awkward silence for a long time. I changed the language a bit here too... — Hunter Kahn 23:48, 8 May 2010 (UTC)
• "The Dwight bobblehead doll is a reference to the second season episode "Valentine's Day", in which Angela gave it to Dwight as a gift." - How is a reference to a previous episode a "cultural reference"?
  • I guess it's more self-referential, but other television episodes have included these kind of references. If you don't think it works, feel free to delete it. — Hunter Kahn 23:48, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

• Thanks for the review! — Hunter Kahn 23:48, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

• Reply. What about "a long, awkward silence"? The rest, "for a long time" is redundant. That would make sense to me: "a long, awkward silence". Xtzou (Talk) 00:21, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
  • Looks fine. — Hunter Kahn 00:59, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
