Line 482:
** Inverted (arguably) with Michael's excuse of "trapped in an oil painting."
** "I was never given a name." Why didn't he just hang up?
* [[Lampshade Hanging]] / [[Medium Awareness]]: Well, [[Captain Obvious|of course]], given that this is supposed to be a documentary. But, apart from the omnipresent "character talking head" moments, we occasionally get subtler instances of this. One of the more notable examples: Prior to getting on the plane in his last episode, Michael asks the unseen videographers, "Hey, will you guys let me know if this ever airs?"
{{quote|''(removing a microphone pack from under his jacket)'' "It's gonna feel so good getting this thing off my chest." ''(inaudibly mouthing to the camera)'' "[[That's What She Said]]."}}
** Earlier in the "Goodbye, Michael" episode, a jealous Gabe confronts Andy in the restroom and threatens to make him regret it if he goes near Erin. After Gabe leaves, Jim exits one of the stalls, having apparently heard everything. Cut to a talking head segment with Jim where we expect to hear his opinion on the Gabe/Andy thing. Instead, Jim asks if they're really ''filming people in the bathroom'' now.
