According to our Office Season 4 Countdown Clock…

…There’s barely more than a day left until the new season of The Office begins! And in our gleeful anticipation, we took the time to hammer out 10 possible plots we wouldn’t mind seeing this year. Some of you might think we’re taking the fun out of it — I think we’re ADDING the fun by thinking of all the possibilities!! Take a read, and then feel free to leave your fantasy Office plots in the comments.

10. Pam and Jim elope to Atlantic City to walk down the aisle, where they run into Michael and Jan doing the same thing. Pam and Jim then forget all about their problems, as it is clear that Michael is freaking out and against the idea. They spend time “talking him down”, and in the end, decide that maybe marriage on the fly isn’t the best idea. Please remember: These are my fantasy plotlines, and I just want to see Pam and Jim elope. The end.

9. Meredith goes sober and ends up getting really good at her job, so good she almost is hired to takeover the entire branch. It is only when Michael accidentally gives her a glassful of vodka he mistakes for water that she falls off the wagon again, and he prevails as usual.

8. Creed wins the lottery. That’s an episode.

7. Angela thinks she might be pregnant. As a result, anything that might in any way harm her baby is forbidden, including loud talking, laughing, singing and Oscar.

6. Andy finds out that his college ex-girlfriend, who was in the Cornell A Cappella group True or Falsetto, had a son the year after they graduated. He brings the son to work to see how successful his Daddy is, and somehow the little boy takes a big liking to Dwight. The two become thick as thieves (Dwight even lets him hold his bobblehead OUT of the case), which drives Andy insane. But will all of those anger management classes help? Or will he lose his mind and punch Dwight square in the crotch? It should also be mentioned the episode ends with Dwight telling Angela he’d like her to procreate a child in the future.

5. Phyllis suspects Bob Vance is cheating on her with his hot secretary, Nance. When Michael catches on, he enlists himself and Dwight as spies. In the course of spying, they end up finding out weird and sort of disgusting things about some of their coworkers — Kevin’s hidden stock of Mallomars in the parking lot, as an example. In the end, Bob of course wasn’t cheating, rather buying Phyllis a brand new Escalade.

4. A hot, steamy, lurid Office affair… between Toby and Pam. You know he’s been wanting to show off that sweet Dunder Mifflin robe ever since Christmas!

3. On a similar note, perhaps Kelly Kapoor is so broken up over the Scranton branch’s loss of the Belle of the Ball himself (Ryan) that she falls into the arms of the closest man to her cube… which I believe it either Toby or Kevin. Either way, we’re satisfied.

2. Here’s a mind-blowing idea: Roy starts to date Karen! If you recall, she once said he was cute. Anyone up for a 22-minute awkward double date? Me three.

1. The Office is visited by a big celebrity — Scott Baio or Brett Michaels or some other 80’s icon, who is now the spokesman for Dunder Mifflin. He takes a liking to Angela, then gets the crap kicked out of him by Dwight. Let’s be honest: We just want to see someone kick the sh*t out of Brett Michaels.

OK, now it’s your turn! What’d I miss?
