I think it's time to create a new category of television show. Being a fan of the classic horror story, the classic fable, and the classic children's story, I say why not marry these 3 great themes? My series will be called Tales of Terror to Teach your Tots. C'mon NBC, who's not going to tune in to that? Okay, I have a TV series idea, but not exactly a sit-com.

I would expect any story line for "The Office" to include Meredith (played by Kate Flannery). How about it Mr. Graham? I thought I submitted a reply yesterday but it has not registered.

Michael, Dwight, Stanley and Pam go to Odessa Texas to visit one of DM's suppliers, the Primatech Paper Company. Unbeknownst to them, Primatech is merely a front for the mysterious "Company" that is trying to control the Heroes. Syler cuts Stanley's head open and steals his power, but since his power is lethargy, it renders Syler useless and at a distinct disadvantage for his battle with Michael. After the battle, Syler kills himself, his final words being a weakly muttered "That's what she said". Dwight meets Hiro. Hiro realizes that Dwight has the power of being an ultimate warrior. They fight side by side and Dwight saves Hiro's life. In gratitude, Hiro uses his time-traveling powers to return to Scranton in 2007 and take Angela's cat out of the freezer before it dies. When Dwight returns to Scranton, Angela is no longer upset with him. As the episode ends, Pam, Claire and Elle have a huge cat fight over the affections of special guest star Bob Graham...
