Twists and Shout

Well, watching tonight's episode has firmly hooked me back as an Office fan. I could't move away from the tv. Let's look back on this season finale's highlights.
Jim pulled a soon-to-be classic prank on Dwight where he stole Dwight's phone and started answering it. Pretty soon, Dwight thought, "Hey, I can use my office phone". But, unfortunately, the office phone was in on the prank.
The new HR person, Holly, turns out be a less offensive girl form of Micheal. Sweet and humble. Well played by Amy Ryan. Michael and Holly doing Yoda imitations on the floor was so funny and sweet. Hopefully this relationship goes somewhere unlike the one that Michael is currently in.
Jan is pregnant, but not with Michael's child. She went to a sperm bank and got pregnant. Michael's reaction to this news was so sad that you felt bad for the guy.
Angela gets taken down a peg by Phyllis when Phyllis gets control of the party committee. Phyllis ends up throwing an amazing farewell party for Toby (more about him later). Angela warns Phyllis of never doing another party again, but I think Phyllis will get the last laugh (more on that later).
Jim has been warned by Ryan to bring up sales or he's fired. So, he got a big sale and called Ryan. That phone call showed John Krasinski's range of emotions from confident to broken. Also, that first phone call was amazing acting. You could feel anger. Also, Jim was going to propose to Pam but got beat by Andy proposing to Angela who replied with, "Ok."
Pam revealed that she thought Toby was "kind of cute." Toby still has a thing for her. Him and her taking pictures after the aborted proposal was so good. Her reaction to not getting proposed to was just heart-wrenching.
Dwight and Meredith with the help of Mose (yay! Mose!) was trying to scare Holly away by putting a raccoon in her car. Dwight, then spurned by Michael's sudden love of Holly, was devastated by Angela's acceptance of the proposal. But then, Angela cheered him up by doing some stuff that would break that office relationship contract. To top it off, Phyllis catches them and passes out.
Ryan, aka Temp, got arrested for fraud. Everyone was overjoyed except Michael who took it really hard. Nice touch using UTube to have everyone find out.
But, the all star of the episode has to be Kevin. Dwight tells Holly that he is "special" and Kevin doesn't help matters out. Kevin then thinks that Holly is into him when really she pities him. In the end, Kevin rides to the diner with Holly in the sunset.
Questions for the next season:
How will people react to Angela and Dwight's relationship? Especially Andy.
Will Jim and Pam ever get engaged or will they break up due to her new education experience?
Will Michael end up with Holly or Jan and her devil spawn?
Finally, will Kevin realize that Holly just isn't to him?

I'm glad Jim didn't end up proposing to Jan. Let them play this out a little bit longer. Builds the suspense. (I also think it was way too soon anyway)
