The Officefans are in for a treat!
On Friday,Peacockrevealed a never-before-seen clip ofThe Officeto celebrate the beloved sitcom’s arrival on the NBCUniversal’s streaming service.
“The Office: Deleted Cold Open - Series Finale,” Peacockcaptioned the nearly five-minute-long clip. “🚨 This is not a drill. 🚨 Presenting a never-before-seen cold open from #TheOffice!”
However, as fans of the show will know, Dwight’s frenemy Jim Halpert (John Krasinski) and Pam Beesley (Jenna Fischer) are behind the prank to mess with their coworker.
Hank then offers Dwight a blue pill to stay in the matrix or a red pill to “open your eyes and see how deep the rabbit hole goes.”
Jim and Pam, who are watching the scene from a monitor upstairs, assume that Dwight will say the red pill, but when he answers blue, their plan goes awry.
“The timing is terrible right now,” Dwight explains in the clip. “They just promoted me to manager, plus I own this building. I run a very substantial farm, and I’m getting married soon to a woman I love … I don’t wanna lose it.”
After opting for the blue pill, Hank yells out: “If the blue pill’s not safe to swallow, someone should tell us now!” leading Jim to run frantically downstairs to the warehouse.
The clip then cuts to black, with a message reading “Inloving memory of Hugh Dane” on the screen.
