This U.S. adaptation -- set at a paper company based in Scranton, Pa. -- has a similar documentary style to that of the Ricky Gervais-led British original. It features the Dunder-Mifflin staff, which includes characters based on roles in the British show -- and, quite possibly, people with whom you work in your office. There's Jim, the likable employee who's a bit of an every man. Jim has a thing for receptionist-turned-sales-rep Pam -- because office romances are always a good idea! There's also Dwight, the co-worker who is successful but devoid of social skills and common sense.

As Andy flaunts a discovery he made about his ancestry, Darryl struggles in his new role; Dwight teaches a language to Erin, who wants to impress her boyfriend's educated family; Jim reveals a secret.

When Jim convinces Dwight the building is unsafe, Dwight rents a bus to use as his office; Nellie asks for Andy's help; Jim uses pie to cheer Pam.

Andy invites his old a cappella group to perform for Halloween, which leads to a confrontation with his frenemy; Dwight tries to track down a madman in the office; Jim and Pam fight over his new job.

Andy must step up when his dad loses all his family's money; when Dwight is a guest on a radio show, his co-workers call in to torture him; Kevin learns a secret about Oscar.
