Casino Night The Office Quotes

The Office made its debut in the United States on March 24th, 2005, and while it got off to a bit of a shaky start, it has gone on to become one of the most celebrated sitcoms of our time. It won five Emmy Awards, including Outstanding Comedy Series for the second season in 2006 (which seems low, but it was up against other juggernauts like 30 Rock and Modern Family, so that is probably fair). And yes, there was a United Kingdom version that preceded this, and it was a fine show (the American version was better). The aforementioned second season (although the first season is incredible when you go back to it) is where The Office takes off. The season finale was titled, The Office – Casino Night.

Dunder Mifflin boss Michael Scott (played by Steve Carell, who also wrote the episode) organizes a casino night for charity. Of course, everything goes awry, from Michael accidentally inviting two dates to Jim Halpert admitting his feeling for Pam Beesly, who is engaged to Roy Anderson. But we’re going to focus today only on the casino games, where we saw some poker, craps, blackjack and more. Here are the power rankings for who made out like bandits in “Casino Night”.

The Office – Casino Night Power Rankings

Side note: Due to what is going on right now with Coronavirus, can we stop the practice of blowing on dice, which Angela does for Dwight….That’s why you should just go to an online casino.

Toby – He got to take Michael’s money in poker, which isn’t hard as Michael goes all in on the first hand. The issue is, Michael tries to bluff Toby, who calls with a pair of Jacks. We never even see what Michael has, he might have a pair of Aces for all we know. But it’s Michael. Also, Toby deserves this for all the grief that Michael puts him through in their time on The Office. He says he wants to “chase that feeling”. Toby is definitely the favorite for ending up at the World Series of Poker.

Creed – Of course, Creed is a kleptomaniac, that was probably the least surprising revelation in this episode. The chips he steals goes towards his high chip count, which earns him his first fridge ever, and he just picked it up and took it outside like a boss.

Phyllis – She beat Kevin, and her husband’s company brought the mini-fridge, which was won by Creed. Phyllis always does pretty well for herself.

Pam – As a poker player, Pam baits Jim into thinking she is bluffing, which plays into their whole relationship angle. She gets a straight and wins the hand. Personally, however, that is a completely different story.

Kelly – Kelly only played a bit part in this episode, but I feel like if anyone were to have beginner’s luck, it would be her (or Phyllis, obviously). She would make some sort of connection to the cards in her hand that only makes sense to her, and next thing you know, she is battling Creed for the mini-fridge.

Kevin – Kevin is a man of hidden talents. We find out in this episode that he is in a band, which Roy hires to play at his wedding to Pam. There was the “Basketball” episode, in which we learn Kevin can shoot, as long as he isn’t moving. Here, he says that he is a professional poker player, and he plays the part well. However, Phyllis ends up with “all the clovers” to win the hand. I feel like the accounting trio of Kevin, Oscar and Angela could really dominate this night if they pulled it together.

Jim – He goads Dwight into losing a hand, and he loses to Pam in a hand that was much more than playing poker. Jim seems like he is the most logical person in the office and should win it, but his feelings for Pam are a distraction (which I could write another 500 words about).

Dwight – Dwight feels like he should be better at playing cards than he is. But he buys Jim’s coughing ploy, which Jim does purposely to bait Dwight into bad hands. But he does get slapped by Angela, which both seem to like.

Side note: Due to what is going on right now with Coronavirus, can we stop the practice of blowing on dice, which Angela does for Dwight? And Jim coughs into his hand, which is holding his chips? That’s why you should just go to an online casino.

Jan/Carol – Neither of them play a hand, but both get played by Michael. This should earn them the bottom slot in these power rankings, but there can only be one. Fun fact: Carol is played by Nancy Carell, Steve’s real-life wife.

Michael – Do I even need to explain this? From inadvertently getting two dates (it’s mind-boggling that he has one) to losing to Toby, to asking both women to blow on his dice in craps (again, in today’s time, that is gross) to still thinking that he came out on top. And eventually, he does. Maybe he isn’t the real loser. Wait, yes, he is.

The moral of The Office – Casino Night: just go to an online casino. If you need to see people, just go to a live dealer casino.

It's been nearly 15 years since the 'Casino Night' episode of The Office aired, but fans can't seem to get enough behind-the-scenes info on Jim and Pam's big kiss scene.

On the latest episode of the , former co-stars Jenna Fischer and Angela Kinsey spoke with director Ken Kwapis about his time on the show and what it was like to direct the fan-favorite Season 2 finale.

Kwapis, who also directed the pilot and series finale of The Office — along with episodes like 'Diversity Day,' 'Sexual Harassment,' and 'Booze Cruise' — shared some of his on-set directing secrets and recalled why he kept Jenna Fischer and John Krasinski apart before they filmed their kiss.

Back in May, Fischer and Kinsey welcomed John Krasinski onto the podcast to chat about 'Casino Night,' and he explained how nervous he felt on set because he couldn't find anyone (including Fischer) to chat with on set before the kiss. Turns out, Krasinski and Fischer were intentionally kept apart for an hour before the kiss scene was shot to build up tension.

'We shot the kiss the night before we shot the parking lot scene,' Kwapis recalled. 'And the reason is just a practical one — that it was the end of the week and we saved our night exterior work for Friday night. So I felt like it was hard, because how do you go into the kiss without having experienced that parking lot scene? How do you prepare for it? And so it seemed to me that maybe having some distance between the two of you might help create, I don't know, just this feeling that you're kind of off balance.'

'Obviously we had read the scene. We had a table read. But we didn't rehearse the parking lot scene,' Kwapis continued. 'So I just remember thinking, well since we didn't do the scene which is really kind of the turning point in their relationship — when Jim declares that he loves Pam and it upends everything... since we hadn't done that this might be a way to just create a little tension.'

Kwapis told Fischer and Kinsey that he listened to their previous 'Casino Night' podcast episode and was interested to hear Krasinski's take on the pre-filming atmosphere. 'I listened to your talk with John about this, and he's right. It was weird, because I was also trying to like underplay the whole thing... I was trying to make as little out of it as possible even though the call sheet that day said in all caps, 'JIM KISSES PAM.' But I do feel like it was important that you guys be off balance.'

Another big discussion when filming the kiss scene was how many camera angles there would be, and if a second camera should have captured Pam's reaction to the kiss. Ultimately, the crew settled on one camera angle, and Kwapis thought that was really powerful.

'First of all, I was probably crying watching the scene. But I remember thinking that the other reason the camera angle was so good was that Jim knows what he's about to do. Jim has such a strong intention — he's going there to kiss Pam. But Pam is unaware, and the camera angle really kind of puts us in Pam's shoes... We are Pam,' he said. 'We're surprised by it as well, so it felt like another angle would have really hurt the way we were involved in that moment.'
