To create the picture of young Jim and Dwight, a high school photograph of John Krasinski was photoshopped alongside a 1991 picture of Rainn Wilson. At the time, Wilson was touring with an acting company.

While the sales team is standing in the parking lot, the actors feign cold shivers with winter gear; in actuality, it was 85 degrees.

When Angela went to drink coffee with Pam, she uses the code names 'Noelle' and 'Kurt' to tell her what happened that morning. These are the middle names of Angela and Dwight, respectively.

Although Pam is skeptical to get coffee with Angela due to their hatred/likeness for one another, in real life Angela Kinsey and Jenna Fischer are best friends.

In the opening scene where Michael is controlling Harvey the computer, he invites Jim and Pam into his office, he says "me so horny, me lobe you long tim." This is a reference to his move 'The 40 Year Old Virgin' in which he says this line.

Michael is drinking a "Cherikee Red" (manufactured in Scranton) in breakroom with Angela.

When the sales teams are leaving for their sales calls, Michael throws a bag of laundry to Dwight. Andy asks him, "He does your laundry?" to which Michael replies, "Long story." He's referring to S3E3, "The Coup," in which Dwight attempted to take Michael's job and agreed to do Michael's laundry for a year after being caught.

When Michael goes to get Dwight at Staples, a version of "Up Where We Belong", the song at the end of An Officer and a Gentleman when Richard Gere goes to get Debra Winger, is playing.

I enjoyed this episode a lot. I liked seeing the sales call interactions between the characters who don't often spend much screen time with one another, like Karen and Phyllis, and Ryan and Stanley. I also really like seeing Angela in such a great mood. The only issue I have with this episode is the underhanded and backstabbing way in which Andy maligns Dwight to Michael throughout the entire show. I don't enjoy Ed Helms as an actor and when he was in a few episodes in Stamford I hoped I could ignore him until his character was written out. Unfortunately, he has been added to the core group now and I find him to be a distasteful and unwanted addition. He really does ruin every scene he's in. Though I've watched the entire series from beginning to end several times, this episode always serves as a reminder why I strongly dislike the Andy character and Ed Helms in general. Although I suppose it did serve as a reminder to why I find Dwight so endearing. Sacrificing his career to protect Angela and hugging Jim goodbye. He can be so caring and sweet!

I just can't get into the Andy character. He is a supreme jackass. He brings down the entire flow of the show, and I find myself trying to pass up any scene that he is in. Dwight may have been annoying, but it was in a funny way. Andy is just terrible. I was hoping that when they closed the Stamford branch, he was not going to be shown anymore. I just don't like him.

Sales people go on selling trips. And Dwight gets into trouble.

Fun episode. I loved the pairings for travelling. Ryan being chosen by Stanley was a fun moment. Phyllis and Karen getting their haircuts. Andy trying to make Dwight look bad and unfortunately succeeding. I am not sure why Angela would be worried Michael finds out it is for her, Michael is not a strict boss, more like a silly one, she wouldn't be in trouble. Dwight leaving makes one more interested in the next episode. And him hugging Jim at the end was just sweet.

A dark one; sort of political a bit, its genuinely mature of them to write this but unfortunately weren't able to pull it off to that level.
