In this episode, Dwight actually taught Ryan some very valuable things. “You know what your problem is? You know why you haven't made any sales? It's because you think you know everything. You have to trust that maybe there are other people that can teach you things.” He was absolutely right!
It kinda reminds me of those sales calls Michael made the sales team go on when Phyllis and Karen went and got something done with their hair. Karen questioned the reason but then got to the sales pitch realizing the client had a wife who had the same hairstyle. Relationships with people are essential in all lines of work, from sales, law, and restaurants, and Dwight hit the nail on the head.
Eh, in fairness to Ryan, he kind of acknowledged that Dwight had a point there and gave him another chance to teach him something. Dwight's the one who betrayed Ryan's trust there. If anything, Dwight just reinforced Ryan's thoughts that, even if he had things to learn, he wasn't going to learn them from the people at Dunder-Mifflin.
Had he wrestled with Dwight's cousin "fear" and gotten in the coffin he would have finally obtain the amount of balls it takes to be a true man and a salesman but he couldn't even do that and became a coward salamander full of him self.
“That line insert my seed in you” was improved. If you watched the commentary for this episode ryan said he wrote this episode and Dwight came up with that line on the spot.
Ryan might be one of the most relatable characters in the show for the simple fact I’ve known a lot of people who have left being normal in a Ryan fashion
Good point I used to think he was unrelatable but Ryan’s are very common and people change to fit a more “corporate” or business centered world which may in fact change them for the worse.
“You don’t have to wrestle him Ryan just get in the coffin.” The fact that he didn’t quit and take out a restraining order on Dwight after hearing that is beyond me
I don't think it was even that elaborate. I think there were supposed to be animals in the coffin. That didn't seem like the sort of barn animals are kept in; its purpose was storage.
Honestly, post-bowling alley Ryan is my favorite Ryan. When he eventually comes back to the office and starts dressing like a hipster nerd, everything that comes out of his mouth is gold 😂
Did you know the actor that played Mose donated the money he made to charity bc the scenes were just silly and he made so few appearances. What a cool guy
Honestly Dwight did have the best lesson for Ryan out of everyone who tried to mentor him: “Not everything is a lesson, sometimes you just fail”. Failing is just something that happens sometimes, there isn’t always a way to avoid it. I feel like that’s a lesson not enough kids learn.
I think the best lesson Dwight tells him is that he thinks he knows everything, which considering he devolves into ultra-arrogant narcissism was pretty spot on
Yes, the great irony in the episode is that, in and around these ridiculous exercises that Dwight has dreamed up, he's actually giving Ryan solid advice.
I actually thought this Ryan was really funny. You can tell he’s smart and “gets it” when it comes to his position and the documentary. Once he got the job at corporate it like warped his poor narcissistic brain.
Much like Michael, he was promoted higher than he was qualified for. But whereas Michael, at least, always presided over a branch that made money, Ryan resorted to fraud to cover up his failed project.
Yeah, I much prefer old Ryan's interactions with the rest of the employees. He's "normal", but he's smart and it creates interesting moments with the craziness in the office. But "corporate Ryan" and then "hipster Ryan" is so much funnier by himself.
And it actually happens to people all the time. They become managers or corporate and suddenly they know they can be a complete tool without much for repercussions.

Dwight saying Ryan has to learn that he still has a lot to learn and doesn't know best all the time was actually pretty real advice. My exact experience with sales smh
One of the major problems with DM Scranton is the fact Ryan was given 0 sales training, Michael should've used the conference room for its intended purpose in a sales environment, which is?, to teach new salespeople the anatomy & mechanics of sales, ie: Introduction->short story->presentation->close. along with the myriad of closing methods.
Not really. Character development doesn't always mean they become more likable. From the beginning you could tell Ryan thought he was better than everyone else. When he got promoted, he didn't have to hide it anymore. And once he tanked, he figured the cat was already out of the bag so may as well stay on his douchey course. Opposite character development would be Kevin.
“You think you know everything , You have to trust that there are other people that can teach you things” - Dwight schrute . Golden nugget in a comedy series . Never ceases to amaze me .
I think Ryan was always an "evil" character. He was just playing the more agreeable, polite, hard-working type when it was necessary but then he finally starts getting more and more of a taste of success and more importantly POWER and that's when he truly allowed himself to reveal who he really was. He is one of the more realistic characters in the show for this very reason. Most of the characters in the show that we love the most are the terminally low-ranking ones, they'll never get that far, and for a time he was one of them so like a chameleon he blended in with them perfectly. But as he begins to climb the corporate ladder, it begins bringing out the worst characteristics in him and worst of all, rewarding him for them. And they may have been friends earlier on, but once he reaches that higher echelon of success and power he begins to show the world who he truly is.
@@tom-vf1xv It takes a certain type of person to actively pursue power, though. Some people are content being employees. Other people like Ryan hide their true colors until they get what they want, which is power and money. My point is, he was always the person lying underneath but he hid it and blended in with his peers until he finally got the promotion.
The first time I watched this scene, I had no idea what the Dharma Initiative was. Now that I've watched Lost, I love that Dwight had this as "important knowledge" that Ryan needs to know XD
The Dharma Initiative was a scientific research organization in the TV show Lost, which aired in the early 2000's. They had some cult like aspects to them. Lost is an extremely good TV show. I would highly recommend it.
It was hilarious for me and the rest of my family, since the two shows we watched together were Lost and The Office, and hearing one show reference the other was great. 😆 If I recall correctly, Lost was Wednesday nights and The Office was Thursday nights. Fun times.
Dwight giving Ryan the reality check we all need - “you know what your problem is? Why you haven’t made a sale? You think you know everything. You have to trust that there are maybe other people, that can teach you things.” Facts.
Ryan has to be my favourite character from the office, he starts as a relatable, normal character and then becomes a character who is right out of its always sunny in Philadelphia
@@jeremykievit897 A thousand random colors mixed together will make one color. A thousand red also make one color. The colors might be different, but they are still one color.
Agreed, but original Ryan was the only normal, realistic character in Dunder Mifflin, and that created interesting moments with the rest of the cast. Take this scene, for example. His reactions to Dwight's insanity is what makes it really funny. So I'm glad we experienced both versions of Ryan.
This is basically a game where Dwight is the main boss prepping the player for the final battle... and the bosses along the way are harder than battling the final boss itself
There’s a book called “Envy” by Sandra Brown. The scene in the barn where Dwight challenges Ryan to vanquish his fear is 100% an homage to the same scene in the book. I keep waiting for someone else to call it but a decade later... crickets.
Dwight is a lot of things, but he means well. Although his methods are really weird and extreme at times, he honestly does try to help people. (in his own way) H
Becoming the madness, giving in to the awkwardly mundane, seeing yourself as being beyond it all but not able to manifest the vision... These are Ryan's characteristics that led him to his downfall
@@gamingnoah9807 no, sus is just a term that is shortened from “Suspicious”. It was used way before Among Us was created and iirc sus is used to describe people that seem gay or something of that manner.
When I watched this episode, the Willendorf Venus replica that Dwight shows at the end reminded me of a Art History exam I had the following day and I needed to study for. Thank you Mr. Schrute.
I love how even the ones who started out seeming normal and relatable end up being weird as the show goes on. The office is like its own warped dimension that warps everyone who goes into it.
Maybe Ryan would have not gone so haywire had he gotten good mentorship. What he got instead was a boss like Michael Scott and crazy, weird colleagues.

5:15 that "little something" that Mose whittled is a pretty neat copy of the Venus of Willenberg. A 20,000 - 33,000yrs old figurine from the upper paleolithic/gravettian. xD i imagine Mose, after planting beets he's reading books about prehistoric cultures and goes for some experimental archeology while Dwight studies the dangers of bear attacks, survival methods, espionage and martial arts ^^

Dwight was an unhinged maniac... I think he must be one of the rare instances of a character becoming de-Flanderized, with him starting to vaguely resemble a human being in later seasons.
I liked normal ryan so much more than crazy ryan. Its so great to have a character that'll mumble under his breath "you don't know what you're saying".
Seems like Moses is a student of art. That was a pretty good carving of the "Venus of Willendorf" from about 25,000 years ago. Also farm fresh eggs and bacon!
It's funny that Dwight thinks so little of Jim and his ability to make a sale, because in the same season you see Jim and Dwight go on a sales call together and absolutely crush it.
The object that Mose whittled for Ryan is a reference to the fertility image, Venus of Willendorf, one of the oldest human made objects found in Europe, approximately 30,000 years old.
As a woman who studied art history, I'm getting a kick out of how many people are mentioning this fact. It cracks me up every time when Dwight shows the carving to Ryan.
I don't know when, but I started to see the cameraman/woman as an acting character. Then, it is even funnier to see that the cameraman is also left behind and has to go the whole way with his camera, when Dwight drives away.
Dwight knows how to create monsters. He also knows how to destroy monsters. Sadly he couldn't see it quick enough before it turned back into his neighbors dog.
I think that at the end of this episode Ryan fails to make the sale and Dwight says something like, “It’s the big online paper distributors undercutting our prices. Sometimes you do everything right, and you still fail.” Which is what I think inspired Ryan to start Dunder Mifflin Infinity and eventually led to his downfall
Man Ryan doesn’t realize how lucky he was to have Dwight take him out on a farm and train him right! I would have done anything to start my career that way! Haha
To be honest Ryan actually did learn a good lesson here which is that sometimes you do have to understand that you dont have to go along with it just because someone is trying to justify it. He just didnt learn the other part of that lesson which is that you have to be willing to consider when it is justified and when it isnt more too as a result. Even Dwight saying that you have to be willing to listen and learn something from other people while a good listen on its own can also be a bad lesson when it is simply used as a way to justify the way it is done. Ryan in a sense ended up taking this up himself and being able to justify his own actions rather than self criticizing them. In a sense he actually did learn from the people at the office how they behaved at times but didnt see the side of when they were willing to self criticize and work with other parts when neccsary
In this episode, Dwight actually taught Ryan some very valuable things.
“You know what your problem is? You know why you haven't made any sales? It's because you think you know everything. You have to trust that maybe there are other people that can teach you things.” He was absolutely right!
It kinda reminds me of those sales calls Michael made the sales team go on when Phyllis and Karen went and got something done with their hair.

Relationships with people are essential in all lines of work, from sales, law, and restaurants, and Dwight hit the nail on the head.

That seed planting was life changing
As Ryan is speaking, the credits come in perfect sync

Seems like Moses is a student of art. That was a pretty good carving of the "Venus of Willendorf" from about 25,000 years ago. Also farm fresh eggs and bacon!
Ryan 's poem changed me forever
(p.s : pam and Jim cried too)
It's funny that Dwight thinks so little of Jim and his ability to make a sale, because in the same season you see Jim and Dwight go on a sales call together and absolutely crush it.
And apparently, Jim had no trouble making his quota, so he couldn’t have been that bad. He just didn’t have the killer ambition that Dwight had.
No he doesn't. It's just that he is in front of camera he is presenting it that way but deep down he got a lot of respect for Jim, a salesman.
@@JBM425 Jim is good but Dwight is better than him
$1,000,000 Shrute Bucks that Ryan would have never left that coffin had he got in. Lots of Shrute seed may have been planted post mortem.
Oh come on. Dwight K. Schrute is many things, but murderer is not one of them.
Cat murderer, maybe, but that's it.
RIP Sprinkles.
@@timber72 Fact. Dwight wasn't the only Schrute there now was he?
It's weird but i kinda think Dwight would be fun to have as a friend.
2:28 the way Dwight salutes 😂
That coffin part always gets me. It's just so perfect
“Just like you planted your seed, i am going to plant my seed in you.”
The object that Mose whittled for Ryan is a reference to the fertility image, Venus of Willendorf, one of the oldest human made objects found in Europe, approximately 30,000 years old.
As a woman who studied art history, I'm getting a kick out of how many people are mentioning this fact. It cracks me up every time when Dwight shows the carving to Ryan.
I don't know when, but I started to see the cameraman/woman as an acting character. Then, it is even funnier to see that the cameraman is also left behind and has to go the whole way with his camera, when Dwight drives away.
The way Dwight walks 0:31
Its been almost 14 years, and this episode is still amazing
That man passed at least a dozen red flags just walking into the interview, but be ran into the mile high traffic cone at the end.
2:10 one of my favorite rants in the entire show.
"I am goNna PlaNt 🪴 mY sEed in You"
Looking at the little wooden statue Mose whittled always cracks me up
I’ve watched the office several times over, but just realized the joke “now I will plant my seed, in you”
Dwight knows how to create monsters. He also knows how to destroy monsters. Sadly he couldn't see it quick enough before it turned back into his neighbors dog.
On cold nights, I like to imagine that Dwight did something similar to Jim on the first day.
Written by himself, that's the best part
Ryan actually seemed willing to learn….but he got Dwight as a teacher
Bye bye normal Ryan nice knowin ya
I think that at the end of this episode Ryan fails to make the sale and Dwight says something like, “It’s the big online paper distributors undercutting our prices. Sometimes you do everything right, and you still fail.” Which is what I think inspired Ryan to start Dunder Mifflin Infinity and eventually led to his downfall
Just think, that temp agency could’ve sent him anywhere.
He thinks about it all the time
This doesn’t change the fact that Ryan started the fire!
Man Ryan doesn’t realize how lucky he was to have Dwight take him out on a farm and train him right!
I would have done anything to start my career that way! Haha
To be honest Ryan actually did learn a good lesson here which is that sometimes you do have to understand that you dont have to go along with it just because someone is trying to justify it. He just didnt learn the other part of that lesson which is that you have to be willing to consider when it is justified and when it isnt more too as a result.
Even Dwight saying that you have to be willing to listen and learn something from other people while a good listen on its own can also be a bad lesson when it is simply used as a way to justify the way it is done.
Ryan in a sense ended up taking this up himself and being able to justify his own actions rather than self criticizing them. In a sense he actually did learn from the people at the office how they behaved at times but didnt see the side of when they were willing to self criticize and work with other parts when neccsary
With that beard and the wrestling, Mose is almost Khabib. Imagine the slaughter if he WAS Khabib and Ryan tried to wrestle him.
I just love that River Runs Red is playing in Dwight's car lmao
