The Office Season 3 Episode 5: Initiation
One of the things fans say they like about The Office is often the cold intro to each episode. Usually lasting around a minute or so, there is almost always a prank or something funny happening which serves as a great segue into the episode.
While we don’t usually like Ryan’s know it all attitude, in this instance, his constant one-upping of Dwight’s riddles is actually hilarious to watch. Bravo, Ryan Howard, bravo.
