Revealing mistake: Michael is on his computer trying to open up PowerPoint in front of everyone in the conference room. He says "what we have to do here is go to run" and he clicks the run icon. However on Windows XP (the version he is using) and all other versions of Windows, clicking "Run" would open a separate window where you would type the name of the program. However, what appears on screen is a context menu as if he had clicked the "All Programs" button. You can even see the highlighted "All programs" button indicating that it was actually pressed. They likely had a PowerPoint presentation running in full screen with screenshots of a Windows desktop on each slide. As Steve clicked arbitrarily on the screen, it would trigger the next slide to appear thus creating the illusion that he was interacting with the operating system. (00:19:16)

Continuity mistake: In 2-13 "The Secret" Pam and Jim are talking about how Jim used to have a crush on Pam when she first started here. This implies that Jim was working here when Pam was hired. However, in this episode Pam says that when Jim first started working there she said, "Enjoy this moment, because you're never going to go back to this time before you met your desk-mate, Dwight." These two scenes contradict each other.
Michael Scott: Yes. It is true. I, Michael Scott, am signing up with an online dating service. Thousands of people have done it, and I am going to do it. I need a username, and... I have a great one."Little Kid Lover." That way people will know exactly where my priorities are at.

Question: When Angela is buying the Baby Ruths, most of the other candies are turned backwards (I assume to avoid product placement). But above the Baby Ruth is one with the name facing forward that looks like it's called "Picaroon." Is this a real candy bar that's local to the Scranton area or just completely made up? If it's made up, any inside information about where the name came from or if there's an inside joke or show reference to it?
