I love how Darryl just belittles Michael back, leaving him to his own devices. He can't stand the idea of the branch being represented in any voice aside from one that reflects his own sensibilities, especially not by Darryl, and lashes out. Michael often lets his racism and sexism slip out through insipid dog-whistle comments like "this is not my music." This is Michael at his most Karen.not, like, Rashida Jones's Karen, but the "I want to speak to the manager" / "Help, bird-watcher!" kind. Also Karen's comment about schoolgirl fantasies - "Oh, that's a pretty common one." - has always made me wonder. The line comes just after Michael and the women of the office start discussing Michael's sex life with Jan.and I could totally see her emasculating him as part of some kind of sadistic power game, up there with her recording them doing it to critique Michael's form, and making Michael sleep on a bench at the foot of their bed (as revealed in season 4, episode 12: "Dinner Party"). This is from such a great scene, in general. I imagine the documentary crew asked her why she needed to "go to the doll store" - calling her out on her hypocrisy - and this is her deflection. The fact she's having a trans panic about Michael cross-dressing is also really ironic, since Michael is something of a transphobe. The set-up is also priceless, when she leaves the table in a huff, disgusted by hearing about Michael's sex life.like she's can't stand the thought of someone having sex, despite the fact that she does it with Dwight all the time (often *in* the office!). Probably Angela's best one-liner in the whole series. Season 3, Episode 22: "Women's Appreciation" (17:04)
