Gabe: The sabre code of conduct outlines the governing principles
key to establishing and maintaining trust with our employees, clients...
Oh, my god, kill me.
Hey. All right, obviously, we all want to die,
but we have to get through this, so Gabe, go ahead. It's okay.
Oh, is it... Is it okay with you?
Because if it's not, you work for me, so...
Comply with all applicable laws,
regulations, policies and contracts
governing our business.
Be honest, fair... I'm going to do it.
Trustworthy in all your business activities and relationships.
Treat one another... Oh! I'm going into labor!
Okay. She's going into labor! Oh, my goodness.
Make way, everybody!
I know it's wrong to fake going into labor
just to get out of things, but sometimes,
it's necessary.
I'm going into labor.
But should I have corn dogs or...
I'm going into labor!
Okay, three reasons you are wrong about true blood.
Number one... I'm going into labor.
Here we go!
Hey, guys, you can't keep saying you're going into labor.
Everyone knows you're full of it.
Kelly: Yeah. Oscar: It's not fair, you guys.
Kelly: Pitiful. Angela: So stupid.
Kevin: Never cry wolf.
Okay. Okay.
Oh. Oh! Oh, my gosh!
Oh, my god, Pam!
I'm really in labor! This is happening.
Okay. Okay, guys.
Here we go. We'll see you.
How do you feel?
Drive carefully! Good luck!
Bye! Oscar: Good luck!
False alarm.
What? They took another client from us?
Okay, bye.
Man, business is war.
Customers, clients, it's like a war out there.
I am a leader,
but you can only inspire people so much in a place like this.
So today, I'm turning the inspire factor up to 10.
With a little help from my friend, america's bloodiest battle.
Why even read business books? We should be studying war.
Going to places like gettysburg. Where is that?
It's right here in pa.
Ah!
Well, we should take a field trip there. I mean, that would be so cool.
I wonder if that bus downstairs is...
Okay, Andy. We get it. It's a trip to gettysburg.
That sounds super inspiring! I'm in!
Gettysburg? Hmm. Could be interesting.
Second most northern battle in the civil war.
Actually, it is the northernmost.
The civil war history industry
has conveniently forgotten about the battle of schrute farms.
(Scoffs) Whatever. I'm over it. It's just grossly irresponsible.
Charge!
Well, this could be fun.
Yeah, well, the bus has free Wi-Fi,
and I made special low sugar lunches for everyone.
And is anyone kosher or halal?
What's the halal option?
Dates, tabouleh and bagel with cream cheese.
Out.
You know, it's the same as the kosher option. There's a lesson in there.
I mean, I can't force you to go, you're not my slaves.
Thanks to gettysburg.
But who's coming with me?
I'm in. I'm in, too.
I guess I'm a sucker for historical fiction.
Anyone who's not going, you're dead to me.
You're uninvited. I don't want you to come.
But fyi, there will be leftover
Turkey and Pesto sammies in the fridge.
Yes!
One for you. Cool, thanks.
And one for you.
Cool, thanks.
Oh! You missed your head. There you go.
Phyllis, think fast!
All right, guys, a little foreplay before we do it.
Fans of Ken burns' jazz will most certainly enjoy the civil war.
You know, I just got limitless on my iPad.
I bet I could get it on the TV.
Oh, isn't that the one where the guy becomes limitless?
It's just not appropriate. If we were going to visit Bradley Cooper's birthplace,
I'd be the first one suggesting that. I'd be rooting for it...
(Chanting) Limitless, limitless, limitless, limitless, limitless!
Andy: All right, all right, all right!
Here.
Pam: Like it? Kevin: Oh, by the picnic table?
Then you've got to get the fire pit.
I can't get a fire pit, I have two babies.
Kevin: But the fire pit is a no-brainer. Oh, hi there.
Hi, Robert. Hey. Um, how are you doing? Good to see you again.
Where is everyone? Where is Andy?
Andy took some of the other people
on a corporate retreat to gettysburg.
Well, I was hoping to talk out some ideas with Andy.
But what we have here is perhaps better.
By not going on the trip, you've shown
you're the free thinkers of the office.
Robert, you've got your sheep, and you got your black sheep.
And I'm not even a sheep. I am on the freaking moon.
So, here's what we can do.
Game changers.
Changes to the game, such that the game
can never be played the same way again.
Everyone, brainstorm some innovations.
Don't be afraid to get weird with it.
Meredith!
Excited.
Okay.
You guys, get excited! (Shushes)
Movie's almost over.
All right, we're here. Limitless can wait.
Fun fact. In France, they call limitless
"the man with many capabilities."
Whoo-hoo! Ladies and gentlemen, the 1800s await you.
We can watch limitless on the way back.
I got source code on the way back.
(All agreeing)
Whoo!
Where are you going?
Visitors' center. Going to grab a map for the memorials, right?
We're not going to the visitors' center. We're not tourists.
No, of course we're not tourists.
We're just people that aren't from here who are taking a tour.
Yeah, the sign says, "begin tour here."
Unless you're going on the very specially created
and meticulously researched Andy Bernard tour.
After chancellorsville,
Lee brought his army up the shenandoah valley, right through here.
They stopped in this field for a picnic, which they called "lunch."
Erin: Yeah, but I'm confused...
Total deaths belongs to gettysburg.
But when you're talking about dpa, that's deaths per acre...
Uh-huh... nothing beats the battle of schrute farms.
Oh, dpa sounds way more important... oh, it is.
And you should read some of these letters that the soldiers wrote home.
I mean, it makes the battle of gettysburg
sound like a bunch of schoolgirls wrestling over a hairbrush.
(Both laughing)
I'm telling you, they're heartbreaking, too. So beautifully written.
Dwight, what are you telling this girl?
The truth.
Stop filling her head with nonsense, okay? She doesn't know any better.
Oscar, I'm so glad you just got here.
I would have believed everything he said.
No, no, no. You're filling her head with nonsense.
You and the history books. I'm telling the truth!
Interesting.
Yes, thank you.
All of history has been whitewashed.
Really? Why don't you tell us the real history, Gore vidal?
Okay, I will. I don't know who that is,
but I'm going to tell you this.
He's a historian.
Gettysburg was very important. Credit where credit is due, okay?
Big mad props to gettysburg.
Was it, however, the most northern battle of the civil war?
Yes, yes... not by a long shot!
Yes!
No, it was not! No, it was not! (Groaning)
Was it the second most northern?
What?
Sure! I would cede it was the second most northern battle...
Erin!
Was it the northernmost? No! Get out of here, Oscar...
Get out of here!
I am so eager to hear your game changers. Let's dig in, shall we?
May I go first? Absolutely.
Raw fish. The disgusting food from Japan
that Americans would never want to eat.
Now, we can't get enough of it.
From movie stars to construction workers, Sushi is what's for dinner.
Let me throw another idea at you. Origami. What?
The crazy art of paper folding from, that's right, Japan.
Don't you wish you could go back to 1980
and open the first Sushi restaurant in Manhattan?
We can do that with
origami, it's the Sushi of paper.
This idea hasn't gripped me.
What else did you come up with?
I had to memorize the presentation, Robert,
and it took a long time to build the swan, so.
That was bad.
If your woman is like mine,
I bet you come home to hear the same thing all the time.
"This paper is so hard. It scratches.
"Why can't there be a paperjust for me?"
Well, now there is.
(Reading)
It's pink, scented and silky soft.
Now, you can watch the game, and she can write a letter to her sister.
The situation you described, returning home to a wife complaining about
her paper being too masculine, is not one that I'm familiar with.
In the African American community.
Thought it was worth a try.
That's fascinating.
Tell me, what's the significance of the peach orchard, though?
Well, that's a great question. Actually, some of the most...
Dwight: Excuse me, I've got a question for you.
Can you tell us about the battle of schrute farms?
Oh, I haven't heard of that one.
Really? Okay, follow-up question,
how much are they paying you to keep your mouth shut?
I apologize for my friend. And for the Republicans who are cutting your funding.
We don't need to bother this poor gentleman.
I know exactly where we're going. Giddy-up!
Tallyho!
Are you Lincoln?
No, no, I'm...
Apparently, I bear a passing resemblance to Abraham Lincoln.
It makes it kind of hard for me to go to places
like museums, historical monuments,
elementary schools. I don't see it.
Chelsea, give Mr. Lincoln your hat so I can take a picture.
(Sighs) Okay, quick.
Man: Hey, Lincoln's starting.
Oh, no. No, no, no, no. I'm actually with a tour group myself, so...
(Laughing)
Hello, I'm Abraham Lincoln.
Some people call me the "great emancipator,"
but you might know me from the penny.
Okay, you know the test booklets
that they give out in all the schools?
I was thinking that we could put a coupon in the back
that people would mail in to us.
And as, you know, as I tell it, I don't like it.
Unless, of course, you are responding to it. I am not.
Um, excuse me, I'm going to go to the bathroom.
At this point, when you're this pregnant,
it's kind of like senior spring.
The other day, I spit my gum out on the carpet.
Kevin. You've been quiet.
I'm curious to know what your game changer is.
Kevin: You know how in the vending machine,
they have the chocolate chip cookies in the a-1 spot?
They do that because they think
a-1 is the best spot for the best cookie.
But the real best spot is d-4.
Right? That's where the eyes go.
Cookies. Cookie placement.
Yeah. But not just the cookies, though.
That was just a for instance.
Who else agrees with Kevin
that we're wasting facilities, manpower on our underselling products,
when we should be pushing our top performers?
(Laughs) There you get consensus.
Okay, we are now on a planet where
Kevin is the most creative person around
and I am just some good looking guy.
I just don't understand.
It's 1865, victory is ours,
I have saved the very soul of our nation and yet, happiness eludes me.
Oh, perhaps a trip to the theater will enliven my spirits.
Children: No!
So, another thing about oatmeal cookies. Who even wants them?
I mean, I've seen Toby eat one like once,
but other than that, forget it.
Interesting.
So what is dunder Mifflin's oatmeal cookie?
What is the product that no one wants?
How about that two-hole punch letter?
Only the lawyers want that punch at the top, and they use legal.
That's the oatmeal cookie. Fantastic, Kevin, fantastic.
Thank you.
By the way, did we leave all the food on the bus?
Let's talk about food for a second. Food for thought.
Yeah, that's what I had for breakfast,
and I think that's probably why I'm still hungry.
Hunger. Hunger for victory. Hunger for honor, hunger for pride.
Hunger for hamburgers.
Hunger for chicken chimichangas.
Right, Darryl? That's good.
Exactly. Now, do you know what the civil war soldiers were hungry for?
Pride. Now, each battalion had its own flag,
and they guarded these flags with their lives.
Colonel Harrison jeffords of the 4th Michigan infantry
saw his flag being carried away,
chased it down with nothing but a sword,
fought tooth and nail at the foot of that flag until he died.
He wasn't about to let them have that flag.
Pride. Right, guys?
I commissioned this flag for dunder Mifflin. It cost me $200.
Only $200?
We are all branches on this tree. And from the tree comes paper.
We're all part of a business, but business is war.
What's that I hear?
Oh! A rebel paper company is coming to take our flag.
What's going on here? Whee-hoo!
Come and get it! Who's going to get the flag? Who's getting it? Whoa, hey!
Don't look where I am, look where I'm going. Jerk right, jerk left, jerk...
Andy, this is inappropriate. People died here, man.
Get the flag, get the flag! Come on, big tuna.
What are you going to do about it? We've got a flag right here!
Whee-hoo!
Spangler's spring is a mile this way.
Oh, wow. So, that's two miles if you incorporate the walk back.
It's... I mean, come on.
Oh, I don't think I should walk anymore.
All I had for breakfast was oatmeal,
yogufl, cofiee, orange juice and toast.
Two poached eggs and then that half a sandwich on the bus.
I can't.
All right, fine. You know what?
I guess this place just hasn't rubbed off
on you the way that I hoped it would.
I'm still going, and I'm not going to ask anymore.
I'm not even going to look back,
I'm just going to assume that you're with me.
You said you weren't going to look back.
And why is blackrock
suddenly the paragon by which all hedge funds must now be compared?
Yeah, I don't know.
Right? I mean, you're an accountant,
those bogus prospectuses must drive you insane.
Yes, I am an accountant.
Dwight, this is one of the archivists here.
I thought maybe we can consult him.
Yeah. Really?
Well, anyone employed by the gettysburg industrial complex
is certainly going to want to keep quiet
about the battle of schrute farms.
Schrute farms, did you say?
That is a fascinating little chapter of the civil war.
You've heard about it?
Yes! Ha! Prepare to be refuted. Go on, come on.
There you go.
(Slow violin music playing)
Narrator: Families and sweethearts back home
waited desperately for letters from the front.
Man: "Dearest mother, I'm sorry it has been so long since my last letter.
"It is three months since I arrived at schrute farms,
"and I fear! May never leave this place alive. Melvyn fifer garris."
Hallowed ground.
Narrator: But the battle at schrute farms was no battle at all.
It was a code used by pacifists from both north and south,
who'd turned the Pennsylvania farmhouse
into an artistic community and a refuge from the war.
You have to understand, poets, artists, dancers,
these kinds of men preferred peace to war.
These delicate, lovely men found a place of refuge
among the schrutes of schrute farm.
Amidst the macho brutality of war,
this was a place where dandies and dreamers could put on plays,
sing tender ballads and dance in the moonlight.
I like to think of schrute farm as the underground railroad
for the sensitive and, well, fabulous.
Wow, this is so much better than the story you made up.
I've seen enough.
You're right, there should be a monument to this.
Never trust a cookie with a woman's name.
Pecan Sandy. Lorna doone. Madeleine.
They'll just break your heart.
(Chuckung)
Kevin, you are...
Robert, I hate to interrupt, but I would love to pitch you one last idea.
I call it the big Mac idea.
What? No.
Big Mac idea. Sounds encouraging.
It's really, really good, Robert. Let me explain.
No, this is not fair. This is my idea.
He's trying to steal it because he's jealous of me.
Well, what is the idea?
Every time you buy a big Mac, you set one ingredient aside.
Then, at the end of the week, you have a free big Mac.
And you love it even more, because you made it with your own hands.
You know what? Now I remember. That was your idea.
That is 100% your idea.
Oh, my.
It was just actually cookies the whole time.
Damn it. Hey.
You guys came. Where's everyone else?
Back at the bus. We were locked out.
Phyllis is sitting on the ground, eating a dirty sandwich.
Yeah, I asked the bus driver to lock it
because our stuff was in there. I guess he follows orders.
Yeah, sorry everybody else didn't come. I think they're just tired.
With holes in their shoes and their dysentery.
Even without an audience, you're still at it.
What are you talking about?
Our office has a disease, and it goes by many names.
Sarcasm, snark, "wisecracks."
You take things that people care about,
and you make them feel lame about it with yourjokes.
That's what you did with this trip.
Andy, this whole idea of our situation
being just like war, it's just not true.
We just work at a paper company,
and you're our regional manager.
And guess what, man? You don't have to prove anything.
We like you as regional manager.
Andy, if you don't believe me, take a look at what's on my head.
I'm wearing a very pink hat.
I've been getting weird looks all day, because I'm pretty sure
"dm does gb" means something kind of sexual.
But guess who's wearing them? All of us.
Just for you, man. That's huge.
You don't like the hats?
They're terrible.
I hate myself.
They just didn't turn out how I wanted. In my head, they were cooler.
But they do look weird.
Andy: The world will little note
nor long remember the fight that
Jim and I had here at gettysburg.
And that's good, because I was basically wrong.
I wanted my team to be like this army and I was their general,
but I guess it's really just more like
they're people who work in an office and I'm their manager.
Yeah, that's really probably a better analogy. Now that I think about it.
Abe and Mary are seated watching the show.
Oh, Mary, this is wonderful.
Okay, Mary, stop your scolding. I'll be quiet.
I need her like I need a hole in the head!
(Scattered chuckling)
Mmm. Oh...
Bang! (Groans)
