"Here Comes Treble" is the fifth episode of the ninth season of the American comedy television series ''The Office''. The episode originally aired on NBC on October 25, 2012. It guest stars Stephen Colbert as Andy's college friend Broccoli Rob and Ben Silverman as an investor. The series depicts the everyday lives of office employees in the Scranton, Pennsylvania branch of the fictional Dunder Mifflin Paper Company. In the episode, Andy Bernard (Ed Helms) invites his old college a cappella group, Here Comes Treble, to perform for the office during Halloween. Andy, however, gets angry when he hears that his college friend Broccoli Rob (Colbert) is telling a different story about the group. Meanwhile, Dwight Schrute (Rainn Wilson), with the help of Nellie Bertram (Catherine Tate) tries to track down a person who is using prescription anxiety pills. Jim (John Krasinski) and Pam Halpert (Jenna Fischer) fight over his new job. The title is a reference to Andy's college a cappella group, which had previously been alluded to in the series, but never actually shown. The episode also marked the final Halloween installment for the series. "Here Comes Treble" received mixed reviews from television critics, with many mainly criticizing Andy's characterization. Others were more complimentary of the episode's subplots. "Here Comes Treble" was viewed by 4 million viewers and received a 1.9/5 percent rating among adults between the ages of 18 and 49, ranking third in its timeslot. The episode, however, ranked as the highest-rated NBC series of the night. ==Plot== In the opening, Dwight Schrute (Rainn Wilson) greases his head to fit inside of a hollowed-out pumpkin and tries to scare his coworkers. However, he gets his head stuck. Jim Halpert (John Krasinski) helps by demonstrating ways to remove the pumpkin that will also damage Dwight's head. Dwight opts to keep it on, noting that the pumpkin will eventually rot away. Andy Bernard (Ed Helms) invites the latest roster of his Cornell University a cappella group, Here Comes Treble (portrayed by the University of Virginia Hullabahoos), to perform for the office during the Halloween party. Although he tells the camera crew differently, he secretly hopes the group will ask him to lead them in a performance of George Michael's "Faith". He becomes increasingly frustrated when the group is not interested in talking about Andy's glory days as part of the group, and upon learning that old band mate Broccoli Rob (Stephen Colbert) claimed Andy's nickname of "Boner Champ", Andy complains to both Rob, via video chat, and to Erin Hannon (Ellie Kemper), who believes Andy is pathetic for creating drama. However, Erin demands the group to sing "Faith" for Andy, despite the group not knowing the song. Meanwhile, for his new job, Jim Halpert (John Krasinski) meets with investors. Although the investing window had closed, Jim insists on taking part and offers $10,000 under pressure—much more than he and Pam Halpert (Jenna Fischer) had agreed to. After Jim returns, he tells Pam during the Here Comes Treble's performance, and they start arguing during the singing. When the group finally begins performing "Faith", Andy is surprised that Rob appears via video to sing the lead. The group mistakenly thought the song was to be dedicated to Andy, and they contacted Rob to sing it with them. The "concert" ends and Andy continues to argue with Rob as Rob half-heartedly apologizes for stealing Andy's song until Erin finally puts an end to the video chat. Andy entertains the idea of moving to Cornell to keep his legacy alive, but instead decides to use his family's money to create a scholarship for young a cappella singers. When he calls his mother to set it up, she informs him the family has lost all their money. Meanwhile, Dwight finds an anti-anxiety pill on the floor and begins a search for the office "madman" until Nellie Bertram (Catherine Tate) confesses that it belongs to her. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Here Comes Treble」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
