"The Deposition" is the twelfth episode of the fourth season of the American comedy television series ''The Office'', and the show's sixty-fifth episode overall. Written by consulting producer Lester Lewis and directed by Julian Farino, the episode originally aired in the United States on November 15, 2007 on NBC. "The Deposition" was the last original episode of the show to air before the show went on hiatus due to the 2007 Writers Guild of America strike. Jan and Michael travel to New York City for the deposition of Jan's lawsuit against the company. While Michael originally intends to be a witness against the company, he ends up defending the company. Meanwhile, Kelly talks smack to Pam after Darryl beats Jim in a game of ping pong, prompting Jim to spend the entire day practicing in the conference room. ==Plot== After his girlfriend Jan Levenson (Melora Hardin) sues her former employer Dunder Mifflin for wrongful termination, Michael Scott (Steve Carell) finds himself forced by Jan to be a witness against his employer. Ryan Howard (B. J. Novak) wants to make sure Michael won't say anything against Dunder Mifflin because Jan's his girlfriend. Toby Flenderson (Paul Lieberstein) comes along as the HR representative, against Michael's protests. The deposition goes well for Jan at first, as she claims that she was terminated due to discrimination over her breast augmentation. To counter evidence that she had a romantic relationship with Michael before they disclosed it to corporate, Jan submits Michael's personal diary, which she brought to the deposition without his knowledge or permission. Michael is further incensed against Jan when he learns that she gave him a scathing performance review after they had begun dating. Michael learns he was never a contender when interviewing for Jan's former position at the corporate office, with the CFO insisting repeatedly that he is a nice guy, but ultimately unsuited for the position. Michael defends the company anyway, and later states that "you expect to get screwed by your company, but you never expect to get screwed by your girlfriend." Jan and Michael drive home, clearly angry at each other over the events of the day. Back at the Scranton, Pennsylvania branch of Dunder Mifflin, Jim Halpert (John Krasinski) repeatedly loses to warehouse foreman Darryl Philbin (Craig Robinson) at ping pong, prompting Darryl's girlfriend Kelly Kapoor (Mindy Kaling) to gloat to Jim's girlfriend Pam Beesly (Jenna Fischer) over her boyfriend's superior skills. Unable to tolerate Kelly’s trash-talk, Pam builds a makeshift ping pong table in the conference room for Jim to practice against other office employees. Throughout the day, Jim practices against his coworkers, eventually discovering Dwight Schrute's (Rainn Wilson) prowess at the game. When Jim and Darryl have a rematch, Jim again loses to Darryl. Fed up with Kelly's continued taunting, Pam challenges her to a game of ping pong, but the two are pathetically incompetent players. Jim and Darryl quickly bore of watching them and decide to play ping pong in the conference room. The episode concludes with Dwight playing a high-intensity game of ping pong against his cousin Mose Schrute (Michael Schur), with the two at an apparent stalemate.
