2 corrected entries in season 9

Suit Warehouse - S9-E11

Corrected entry: When the office is hyped up on espresso, they try to move the copier to the annex, consequently ripping up The Carpet. Oscar says that he always knew there was hardwood underneath but never thought he'd live to see it. This contradicts Season 7 Episode 23 when Dwight shoots a gun into the floor, and Oscar is offended that they would have covered the beautiful hardwood he noticed under The Carpet when inspecting the bullet hole.

Correction: When he initially sees the hardwood floor he can only see the bullet hole through wood, he doesn't actually "see" the hardwood floor until The Carpet is ripped.

The Whale - S9-E7

Corrected entry: When Wallace calls, Dwight asks why Wallace would call when the manager is out of town. In a later episode, Wallace claims to be ignorant of Andy leaving Scranton. (00:01:55)

Correction: Dwight saying that Andy is out of town, David Wallace may have just assumed Andy was out for the day and not necessarily for three months.

Mistakes

Business Ethics - S5-E2

Character mistake: Meredith admits during the ethics seminar that she has been sleeping with Bruce, the HammerMill rep, for discounts on paper/paper supplies for the company, as well as Outback steak coupons, for 6 years. But, Dunder Mifflin did not begin selling Hammer Mill products until 3-2 "The Convention" when Michael got the contract.

Suggested correction: Michael didn't establish the contract with Hammer-mill. Rather, he locked them up as an exclusive supplier. It's unknown if they were already selling the products to Dunder Mifflin alongside Staples and Office Max.

Wrong, Josh says they cannot sell Hammer-mill products as they are exclusive to Staples so therefore they wouldn't have been able to sell there products alongside as mentioned before until Michael made them an exclusive to them solely, Dunder Mifflin. Therefore the original mistake stands true.

Questions

E-Mail Surveillance - S2-E9

Question: When Angela is buying the Baby Ruths, most of the other candies are turned backwards (I assume to avoid product placement). But above the Baby Ruth is one with the name facing forward that looks like it's called "Picaroon." Is this a real candy bar that's local to the Scranton area or just completely made up? If it's made up, any inside information about where the name came from or if there's an inside joke or show reference to it?

Answer: In the 2007 episode "Ben Franklin" when Jim is talking to Pam there is a candy bar with a purple wrapper that says "Picar-" I assume picaroon, it's hard to see past Pam. I found this trying to investigate what that candy bar is lol.

Answer: There does not appear to be a real candy bar by that name. The word is real, however. It refers to someone who is a rogue, a scoundrel, a thief, or an otherwise dubious character.
