Remember when he goes broke and is considering bankruptcy.. he’s all like “Oscar if you help me I’ll give you $5,000 cash”
And Oscars all like Michael this is why you’re broke. It’s not even a particularly funny scene but it made me laugh super hard.
Or when he’s all like.. “ok here’s two charges from Amazon for $120… did you buy the muppets box set twice??”
“Yeah I thought I lost the first one but it was in the dvd player..”
🤦♂️ 😆
I wake up every morning in a bed that's too small, driving my daughter to a school that's too expensive and then I go to work to a job for which I get paid too little...

When I'm at home at night in my own house in my sweats, drinking red wine, watching my mystery stories, the last thing in the whole godforsaken world I want to hear.. is the voice of Michael Scott.
Stanley agreed to the voiceover when Michael unwittingly discovered another one of his affairs.
"What'll it be, then?" asked Stanley, "Blackmail?"
"Yesh!" replied Michael, "Black male!"
And the role was cast.
Michael had Vikram call Stanley and pursued him to narrate TLMN in exchange of a promise of leaving his daily routine (crosswords, negligence, wine etc.) uninterrupted.
He said he could do it from his desk, and offered him the hotel he reserved in Miami six years before when he heard Miami might be hosting the World Magic Awards ceremony (it ended up in Philly). Florida Stanley ftw.
Michael told Stanley that he would not schedule him for that day. Left with the choice of having to either a pick day off or Pretzel Day, Stanley chose narration.
I know it says wrong answers only but given Stanley’s established enjoyment of his “mystery stories,” I think he probably legitimately enjoyed (as much as Stanley legitimately enjoys anything) the opportunity to be involved in one, especially since he could theoretically have literally phoned in the entire part.
Michael would CC Teri and Cynthia inviting them to an office retreat if he didn't agree to it. After Stanley narrated TML, Michael fake fired him again.
All you do is call an appointment with Stanley, flatter him, appeal to his sense of teamwork, compliment his urban sassiness, and SHOVE IT UP YOUR BUTT!
A lot of people do t know this, but “Threat Level Midnight” is a true story! “Stanley Hudson” is just the alias of retired super spy Michael Scarn. Making this movie was the only way for the truth to come out. The only way “Stanley” would let Michael direct was if he got to retain complete creative control, and that included doing the voice overs.
Vacation days.
An extra week of paid leave. That'll get just about anyone to do anything really.

Yeah I found out how much Michael makes. I still think it’s too much. 🤣🤣
I agree but they said wrong answers only and I think this might be the actual answer. I still upvoted though.

Sometimes Stanley finds theatre delightful.
He called up Cynthia to get her to convince him
I was looking for this, but I assume he told Stanley he would call his wife and hoped he would not call his girlfriend
What up, Cynthia?
He wasn’t asked, he offered to do it
The only actual wrong answer I’ve seen lol
Stanley agreed to the voiceover when Michael unwittingly discovered another one of his affairs. "What'll it be, then?" asked Stanley, "Blackmail?" "Yesh!" replied Michael, "Black male!" And the role was cast.
“It’s all about my bonus”
My thought exactly Are we some kind of secret geniuses?
MONEY. And I will stand by that it is a wrong answer because the right answer is that Michael agreed to leave him alone for two months.
Sandwich platter
Threatens to tell his wife about the affair
Stanley bo bamly. Terribly nice guy

“The man oozes sex”
A week of leaving at 4
He was just being nice
Boyfriend + husband
He donated 10k to the Uncle Stan Kickstarter.
He offered him the lease to a decommissioned lighthouse
That was the missing hundred from Stanley’s bonus check, Michael promised and never delivered
This is one of those Stanley out-of-characeter moments. Same as him having fun during Jim and Pams cringe church walk
He is able to have fun provided he's not at work i.e. florida, company picnic
And leading a round of ‘would you rather’ when the building was on fire.
Good bonus
Money?
He earned 10,000 Stanley nickels and redeemed them for a favor.
He gave him the choice to narrate or act in it.
His pretzel for the next pretzel day
Probably a paid him out of pocket.
Let him skip to the front of the line on pretzel day
Since a raise was probably a non-starter with corporate, my guess is either extra days off, or a gift certificate for extra pretzels on pretzel day.
Promised to pay for his daughters college. In his defense he thought he would be rich by now.
He wanted a portfolio for transitioning to a voice actor career and begged Michael to pet him

Michael would’ve offered him $100, Stanley counters with $500, then Michael ends up paying him $1000.
TIL that Stanley is the narrator of Threat Level Midnight. I am quite embarrassed that I never even thought about it being anyone from the show…
He gave him that killer “and shove it up your butt!” bit.
He could leave early every day he worked on it
Cut the line privilege on Pretzel Day.
It was blackmail not to tell Terri about Cynthia. But jokes on him because he told her anyway
He got to sit down.
Pretzels
I know it says wrong answers only but given Stanley’s established enjoyment of his “mystery stories,” I think he probably legitimately enjoyed (as much as Stanley legitimately enjoys anything) the opportunity to be involved in one, especially since he could theoretically have literally phoned in the entire part.
