Episode: Phyllis's Wedding (Season 3, Episode 15)


Conditioning Test

Jim was at his desk, and his computer made a noise.

"Oh damn, lost another file. Going to have to reboot again." He mumbled, and did just that, and another sound was made.

"Hey Dwight, Lincoln, you want an Altoid?"

Lincoln, who was busy with work, looked up. "Huh? Yeah sure." He said, and held out his hand.

"What do you think?" Dwight said, and held out his hand as well.

Jim handed them both the breath mints, and when they weren't looking, Jim gave the camera a small grin, and went back to his desk.


"In school, we learned about this scientist that trained dogs to salivate to the sound of a bell, by feeding them whenever a bell rang. So for the past couple of weeks I've been conducting a similar experiment on Lincoln and Dwight. To be honest, I thought Lincoln would catch on, due to him once saying that he would know if he was being tested on, due to one of his sisters, Lisa doing it as well. But thankfully, he hasn't." Jim said as he was being interviewed.


Altoid #2

"Dwight, Lincoln, want an Altoid?"

"Okay." Dwight said, even though he wasn't paying attention.

"Sure." Lincoln said.


Altoid #3

Jim made the sound on his computer again.

"Altoid?"

"Sure." Dwight said as he was on the phone.

"Thanks, Jim." Lincoln said as he was reading something on his computer.


Altoid #4

Again.

"Hey guys?"

Dwight mimicked what he said, looked up, and got the Altoid.

"Thanks." Lincoln said, as he took a sip of the drink he had on his desk, and took the Altoid.


Altoid #5

Jim made his computer do the noise again, but he didn't have an Altoid in his hand.

Both Lincoln and Dwight held out their hands. Jim pretended to be confused and asked.

"What are you guys doing?"

Lincoln looked up from what he was doing, and noticed he was holding his hand up, which was weird. Even more strange he felt like he was waiting for something, and his mouth tasted bad all of the sudden, which the latter was voiced by Dwight, facing similar discomfort.

Jim grinned a little when he looked at the camera.


Lincoln was being interviewed, and he had a shocked face.

"Jim's been doing what?"

He then chuckled, and said," Huh, normally I would notice something like that. But hey, gotta give the guy props. That was a good one."
