S2:E7;02 Samuel L. Chang's Dialogue Is Different

When Jim tabs through the Threat Level Midnight script at his desk with Pam [07:00], we can see Samuel L. Chang's dialogue contains words like "yo" and "word". When we see Dwight's portrayal of Chang in the Threat Level Midnight film, the dialogue doesn't contain the same language. The only time we see someone reading Chang's dialogue directly from the script is when Ryan plays the part later in the same episode.

Possible Cause:
Dwight wants Chang to be a humanoid robot, and Michael lets him portray Chang as such. Dwight could have intentionally omitted certain language in Chang's dialogue to more accurately portray him as a robot.

The average person types between 38 and 40 WPM, what translates into between 190 and 200 characters per minute (CPM).

S5:E25 Micheal Wants A Sebring

During their negotiation, Michael tells David Wallace and Charles Miner that, among other things, he wants a Chrysler Sebring as part of the Dunder Mifflin-Michael Scott Paper Company buyout. Miner declines by saying "they don't make them anymore." Having been released in 2008, Season 5 would have occurred during Chrysler's third generation of the Sebring, produced from 2007 to 2010. Miner and Wallace later agree to Micheal's terms, and Michael receives a 3rd generation Chrysler Sebring convertible. In S6:E1 ,  Stanley Hudson attacks Michael's Sebring with a crowbar in the Dunder Mifflin parking lot causing significant damage.

S5:E3 Hammermill

During Holly's ethics seminar, Meredith reveals that for the past six years she had been sleeping with Bruce Myers, the Scranton representative for Hammermill, in exchange for discounts and Outback Steakhouse coupons. Staples had an exclusive hold on Hammermill products up until S3:E2, when Michael announced to Jan, Josh, Jim, and Dwight that he had, for the first time, gotten Hammermill to break their exclusive ties with Staples. Less than six years passed between S3:E2 and S5:E3, meaning Meredith could not have been receiving Hammermill discounts for the duration of her relationship with Myers.
