A Picture is Worth a Thousand Gags

Between Michael tracking down his former girlfriends over an STD scare and Andy using a sex-ed course to find out if Erin is practicing abstinence, last night’s shenanigans certainly made for an expensive and unproductive day for Sabre. One of the many lessons from last night’s episode is that romantic relationships between employees can lead to serious awkwardness and even potential liability. For example, after noticing a cold sore, Michael began a mission to notify his past girlfriends that they might have herpes. This list of old flames included his former supervisor, a human resources manager, and even Oscar (which we’ll get to shortly). I must admit, though, that I enjoyed Michael interrupting Jan’s ridiculous sing-a-long by abruptly stating , “I have herpes.”

Andy’s lingering feelings for Erin drove him to lure his coworkers to a pizza party only to surprise them with personal questions about their sex lives. While Andy’s concerns about how coworkers treated Meredith after she admitted to having herpes were admirable, an impromptu sex-ed course with graphic photographs of genitalia (both with and without “some herpes on it”) was a big mistake. Sabre may be able to argue that at least some of the conduct wasn’t unwelcome, given that several employees happily participated in Andy’s class by shouting out various “pros” of sex.
