* SureLetsGoWithThat: Darryl tries singing the blues with Michael, but Michael just repeats the note progression Darryl sings in a misinterpretation of what call-and-response is. Darryl, seeing that explaining is useless and it's actually making Michael feel better a little, rolls with it.

* CallBack: Once again, Jim's Halloween costume is extremely low-effort, and Kelly's is as a pop-culture figure who is Caucasian.



* InsultBackfire: Andy tries to one-up Dwight by coming in the next day pretending to have started his own beet farm. However unlike Dwight who clearly did his research on Cornell when pretending to have applied, Andy knows nothing about beets, biting into one raw before realizing they're supposed to be cooked. As a result, Dwight is simply amused by the poor imitation.

* ArtisticLicenseGeography: Assuming they are taking the most direct driving route available (I-84 into Massachusetts then a series of highways north) to Nashua, the midpoint would be somewhere in the vicinity of Waterbury, CT. While by no means a sprawling metropolis, there are plenty of exits that provide exactly what Michael describes. It's all down to RuleOfFunny.
