Dwight Schrute : I know that's what he said.
Michael Scott : [to his papier-mâché replica head] What?
Dwight Schrute : Tell him not Dwight.

Dwight Schrute : Tell him to stop.
Michael Scott : [to his papier-mâché replica head] Are you kidding?
Dwight Schrute : [to Michael's papier-mâché replica head] Quiet, you!

Michael Scott : Aaaaaaaaa I'm gonna kill myself!
Jim Halpert : Wow.
Michael Scott : I'm going to kill myself! And it's your fault!
Jim Halpert : That's an overreaction.
