The episode ‘The Merger’ airs at 8:30/7:30c on NBC Nov. 16
The Scranton branch of Dunder-Mifflin was temporarily left scrambling for direction due to last week’s announcement that their office was closing for good. The air quickly filled up with rumors of who was out of a job and what the future would hold, but ultimately it was the Stamford branch, Jim’s home since the beginning of this season, that was notified of its closing.

So it is Jim, returning to Scranton fresh off of a promotion to # 2 in charge, who will have to re-adapt to his old surroundings.
The Office, with back-stories galore, airs tonight and shows the initial stages of Jim’s reunion with the rest of the bunch. What happens when a newly single Pam sees Jim after his time away, and will Karen (Stamford’s Pam) be in tow? Will the new environment, with a mixture of old and new faces, have the same chemistry as the Scranton of old? How will the disconnected-with-reality duo of Michael and Dwight deal with the fallout? Tonight’s episode will hopefully have some of the answers.
