"I did a perfect print job, grown men were coming up to me and saying with tears in their eyes, 'Sir, it was a perfect print job.' What they're trying to do to your favorite printer (ME!) is a disgrace."

Jim reboots the show as a more modern sitcom, in which Dwight resolves the trauma of his upbringing after a single brief conversation with Michael. He becomes a less fearful, paranoid, and authoritarian person.

Meredith goes to the hospital, to successfully receive treatment for her alcoholism.

Jim's 2023 reboot of This American Workspace is a critical and commercial disaster. The metacritic score sets a Guinness world record for the shittiest rated comedy or drama series, and the financial strain on Hulu causes them to immediately file for chapter 7 bankruptcy. The FCC is innuendated with complaints of the hardcore nudity and graphic depictions of several unmentionable acts, and the US Congress passes a rare bipartisan bill to prevent Jim Halpert from ever getting behind a camera lens again.

As a result of the fallout, Dwight's reputation is ruined. He can't go anywhere without being spat on.

Jim however faces no real repercussions since he simply adopts the identity of his alter ego John Krasinski.

A decade later when the dust has settled down and Dwight's reputation starts to recuperate, John starts the prequel series The American Kindergarden focusing solely on Dwight's most embarrassing moments growing up.

After the first episode has aired, Dwight is getting spit on again on the regular.

Jim announces that he will now be "co-manager" of the office, along with Michael.

"Sure," say Michael, sighing and burying his face in his hands. "Whatever. This is already 'The Jim Show,' anyway. You run the asylum, so you might as well run this place, too."

The promotion somehow pays Jim less than he previously made as a salesman, and there is be no clear delineation of roles between Jim and Michael, leading to confusion about the basic functions of the workforce, like whether Jim has the authority to hire and fire people. Jim's antics, if anything, start to get worse. Jim begins harassing his coworkers with impressions, catch phrases from old movies, and clueless comments. He runs over Meredith with his car.

Pam breaks down into tears as Jim once again makes everybody groan by standing up and delivering Chris Rock's infamous standup routine. "You're ruining my LIFE!" she wails.
Jim mugs the camera. "That's what she said!"

It'sa leap year and today is February the 28th.
Jim realizes that today, the prank-er, must become the prank-ee!

He formulates an elaborate plan to get Dwight to prank him.

Jim goes into his prank-cave(tm) and assembles some duckt-tape, buckets, confetti, rubber hoses, rubber bats, a herb garden, two sacks of quick drying cement, a cursed jar containing a Babadook, lots of blood, a sabotaged pair of self heating gloves, live bats, something called the "suckonator-5000", the complete DVD collection of British tv sitcom red dwarf, some pennies, remote mines, non-remote mines, a robot giraffe and all manner of other wacky apparel, he sets off to work at the reasonable time of 1 pm.

When he arrives though, the office is closed and no one is there; words painted across the door read "closed due to cholera outbreak", Jim breaks down crying at the thought of his failure and thwarted desire to be pranked.

Dwight peaks from around the corner, wet brush in hand, and mugs for the camera.

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

Dwight joins the Dunder Mifflin softball team and becomes a phenomenon thanks to his incredible “double corkscrew pitch”, a marvel of technique that no one can hit.

An irritated Jim forms his own team, obsessed with the idea of beating Dwight’s pitch. The Famous Original Jim’s team doesn’t win a single game (mostly because the team consists of Jim and a handful of his friends from the Minions Fan Club), but they eventually get to face the Dunder Mifflin Paper Wasps.

“Alright Dwight, get ready for me to prove how weak your pitch truly is!” Jim says as he steps up to the plate.

Dwight grins - here on the field, he can make Jim eat a nice slice of humble pie. Maybe it’ll even cut back on the pranks at work? Either way - Dwight twists his fingers into the appropriate position to unleash his mighty pitch, then begins to stretch his arm back. He launches the ball, which twists and turns with a seemingly random trajectory. As it approaches home plate, Jim smiles, swings the bat, and connects. There’s a loud crack, the ball goes flying, and Jim scores a home run.

17 minutes later, Jim makes it back to home plate. This is not due to excess celebrating, oh no, his cardio is just really really bad.

After the game (the Paper Wasps still win) Dwight asks how Jim figured out how to hit the pitch. Jim just mugs at him and walks away.

In a talking head segment, Jim presents his bat.

“And now you see the secret. I never hit Dwight’s pitch at all. But my bat includes a disintegrator laser, which destroyed his ball. Then, in the same moment, a second ball was launched from within my bat. It all happened so quickly that no one is the wiser. And, bonus points, the laser gave everyone within 300 feet testicular cancer.”

When the production crew asks Jim if that includes him, he smiles.

“Yup!”

At Pam's funeral, Jim confesses that all the pranks on Dwight were because Jim noticed Dwight was a better artist than Pam.

"I really did all of it to keep you from expressing your full artistic potential, you know, so Pam would feel better about things. No hard feelings, right? I mean, if anyone is to blame, it's actually her. You should be glad she's dead now, so you can get back to it.."

Dwight thinks back on his life and all the art he never created due to recuperating from pranks, and then glances over at one of Pam's final portraits, framed on display.

"I did a perfect print job, grown men were coming up to me and saying with tears in their eyes, 'Sir, it was a perfect print job.' What they're trying to do to your favorite printer (ME!) is a disgrace."
Jim spends weeks in his pranktorium, tirelessly toiling away. In a montage sequence, Jim is seen flipping down his red and blue 3D glasses and igniting a welding torch, his face bathed in blue light. Next, a stubbly and sweaty Jim in a yellowed tank top is seen straining while pulling on a wrench. Then what appears to be a few days later (judging by the amount of piss bottles scattered on the floor) Jim is seen typing furiously with one hand while wiping sweat off his dirty brow with the other.

At the end of the sequence, a dejected Jim stares over his machine. In all the animal trials, the mice and chimpanzees were cured of their testicular cancer. Jim, exhausted and out of ideas, collapses into his chair and puts his hands over his face.

Suddenly an idea sparks through his mind. He rips off the panel door and begins rewiring the control circuit. "And if I just shift the 2nd phase by 120°, and multiply the harmonic frequency by 6.9%..." The machine begins to pulse and hum and Jim stares at it, bewildered and relieved. He aims the laser at the chimpanzee in the cage and flips the ignition switch. In seconds the chimpanzees testicles swell into a grotesque unnatural shape.

"At last, my testicular cancer laser is operational! Now... to conceal it into a baseball bat..."

Dwight is doing some chores around the house when there’s a knock at the door. Opening the door, he finds an obviously uncomfortable Jim standing there and straining.

“Dwight, I know this is weird, but can I use your bathroom? I was driving by and, well, let’s just say I need to get something down on paper.”

Dwight frowns. He just finished cleaning the bathroom, and it almost feels like a slap in the face for Jim to use the carefully scrubbed and sanitized toilet. But how bad could it be, really? Dwight lets Jim in and offers to walk him to the restroom.

“No need,” Jim shouts as he waddles off, “I already know where it is!”

20 minutes later a refreshed looking Jim exits the bathroom. He thanks Dwight for the use of the bathroom and then heads home. Trembling with fear, Dwight peers in the bathroom. It looks okay so far, but he nervously lifts the toilet seat, expecting something nightmarish. Shock of shocks - it’s still spotless and clean. Dwight lets out a sigh of relief and heads back downstairs to finish his cleaning.

“I stuck his toothbrush in my poo water,” Jim later explains to the production crew.

Jim mugs for the camera.

To help pay for her upcoming legal fees, Pam starts taking commissions for art projects. Michael is the first to request a project, asking for a watercolor painting of himself and Holly. Pam says that’s no problem, she’ll have it to him in 3 weeks.

When the painting is finished, Pam proudly presents it at work.

“Wow, thanks Pam, it’s great!” Michael says, lying through his teeth. Holly has 6 fingers on one hand, Michael can charitably be described as “sort of cross-eyed”, and the non-Euclidean folds of their clothing hurt to look at it. Nonetheless, Michael smiles and pays the 500 dollars for the painting.

“So, Dwight, you want some art, too? Right, Balloon Boy?”

Jim, wearing a mustard stained shirt, asks between shoving handfuls of candy corn on his mouth. The separation is apparently hitting him quite hard, as he appears to be wearing the same thing he wore to work yesterday. Dwight says he’d love a painting from Pam, in fact why not create a triptych celebrating the Lord of the Rings trilogy? Pam says she’s never heard of that word, so Dwight just asks for 3 paintings.

Pam rushes back to her desk with a smile, already sketching his designs. Dwight glances over and frowns when he sees some of the design choices, but whatever, it’s to support a friend.

“I didn’t even have to prank you this time, Dwight. You’ll be down a couple hundred bucks, holding 3 lovely paintings, and you can’t get rid of them in case Pam ever comes over. How’s it feel to be such a drat sappy loser?”

Dwight looks over at Pam, smiling as she sketches away. He looks back at Jim, red-rimmed eyes bleary and unfocused, stubble coating his face and neck. And, finally, he looks over at his wife Angela.

Dwight says that it feels pretty good.

Jim decides to broaden his horizon and participate in a prankster's exchange to Germany. Ulf the German prankster will go to Scranton while Jim will go to Cologne.

Once arrived Jim quickly recognises the power structures in the insurance company where Ulf works: Ernie is the victim, Stromberg the Boss and Tanja the love interest.
Ernie is tasked with instructing Jim and takes this very serious: he does not stop to talk to Jim even though Ernie does not speak English and Jim doesn't speak German. While doing so Ernie gets uncomfortably close to Jim. This is when Jim notices that Ernie has both halitosis and bad body odor; Jim almost faints and tries to flee to Tanja. Tanja is upset about Ulf's absence and blames Jim for it. Hence she does not speak a word to him and even encourages Ernie to up his efforts. After a week of this Jim is contemplating suicide. Stromberg just observes the situation from his office while frowning and never interacts with Jim.

In the meantime Ulf has forged great working relationships with everyone with his quirky and easygoing nature and even started an affair with Pam who reciprocated quickly.

Ulf mugs the camera while Jim jumps from a bridge into the Rhine.

Jim replaces Dwight’s shower curtain with an incredibly thing, prototype LED screen that functions like a plastic sheet. Dwight has no idea, as Jim’s set the device to project an exact copy of Dwight’s older shower curtain, which was mustard yellow.

One day, Dwight is showering before work when, suddenly, his shower curtain is covered in cockroaches and snakes. Nude and wet, Dwight fears for his safety and attempts to flee the shower without upsetting the angry critters. As he does, suddenly the shower curtain is engulfed with a massive anaconda, which hisses at Dwight and lunges. Dwight screams, slips on some soap, and conks his head on his soap dish and crumbles to the floor of the shower. As blood swirls from his open head wound down the drain, Jim appears wearing a wig and dress.

“Jeez, Dwight really went PSYCHO in here!”

Jim the wraps up Dwight’s body in the shower curtain (the experimental material costs about 400 thousand dollars a yard, buries him in the beet field, and then calls the police to report a murder.

“Yeah, it’s me, Jim. Jim Halpert. I just murdered Dwight Schrute. I’m mugging right now, in fact.”

That’s a lie, but Jim feels the need to keep up appearances. He kneels down in front of Dwight’s makeshift grave and stares at it, unblinking, until the police arrive. Guns drawn, they take him into custody. At the Scranton Jail, the ask Jim why he did it.

“Because I’ll just be doing it again tomorrow, too. You won’t remember this. Dwight won’t, either. But I will. And maybe Oscar. In fact, we’ve met before, Officer Tenkins. How’s your son doing, by the way? Still playing the clarinet?”

Jim’s interrogation is full of these odd statements, which the police mark down as information he’s found out online, and he’s placed into a holding cell. There, he mugs for the security camera. The guard is so disturbed by Jim’s constant vacant stare that he turns off the camera. When he does, Jim blinks out of existence.

“Hey, why’d you shut off the camera in cell 7?”

“Oh, uh…. Good question. Let me turn it back on.”

There is just an empty cell. And, back at Schrute Farms, Dwight finishes his shower without any unusual activity at all. He pulls open his shower curtain, it’s just a curtain this time, and begins to towel off his slender, sturdy frame.

Jim wakes up in his race car bed.

Dwight is plowing his beet field when he discovers a strange stone tablet buried in the ground. Something is written in a language he doesn’t understand, so he takes it to Scranton University’s archaeological department to see if they have any leads. The researchers are baffled but begin their work, convinced that they’ll figure out this mystery.

Weeks later, Dwight has all but forgotten about the stone and returned to his normal routine. However, while digging a hole to plant a lemon tree, he hits another stone. He carefully removes it, only to find another stone tablet seemingly written in that same unusual language. This process repeats itself one more time, with Dwight stumbling upon the stone as he removes a dead stump from his yard.

Months pass without any results, and Dwight decides the stones might very well have just been a prank from Jim to slightly slow down the progress of completing all of his chores. Then his phone rings.

“Dwight! We finally translated the stones. They actually predate human language as we know it, can you believe it? These stones date back to the dawn of man, a time when we didn’t know humans had language, let alone a written language! Now I suppose it’s possible a much later generation carved ancient stones, but we won’t know that for sure until we cross check this with some of the bigger universities across the globe. Anyway, I may as well just read what they say. We think it’s a primitive joke of some kind, albeit a poorly constructed and kind of bizarre one.

BEET MAN DO GOOD THING
FLOP MAN MAKE WORSE
FLOP MAN SMILE AT WORLD”

Dwight goes silent on the phone.

“Dwight? Dwight? You there, buddy? This is huge! And we want you to share in our discovery! After all, it was on your property! You might say it was waiting for you for countless millennia!”
