The Office2005

[Dwight is talking to Jim in Dwight's office]

Dwight Schrute:
Jo is coming later today. I cannot have a subordinate trying to make me look stupid. Okay? I need you to promise me you'll be on your best behavior.

Jim Halpert:
I *promised* other people that I would be on my worst behavior. And I gave them my word, so...

Dwight Schrute:
Don't make me fire you.

Jim Halpert:
You can't fire me. You're acting manager, not office manager, so you have no firing powers.

Dwight Schrute:
Don't make me pre-fire you.

Jim Halpert:
[serious tone] You wouldn't dare.

Dwight Schrute:
Watch this. You're pre-fired. And when I'm promoted, you'll be full-fired.

[Jim stands up and talks softly]

Jim Halpert:
If you get promoted. And if you haven't fallen in love with me by then.

Dwight Schrute:
[shocked] What?
