The Office - Surplus - Explain it like i'm 8

Oscar tries to explain to Michael what a surplus is.

Season 5 The Office U.S.

the delivery of "i'll be six" always cracks me up.

I love how, when Michael says "explain it to me like im a 5 year old", Oscar isn't shocked for even a second at how absurd the request is. He's already used to Michael's incompetence lol

This was actually a really good explanation, as someone who knows close to nothing about finance, I learned what a surplus is.

But the best part is later when Hank comes and Michael tell him we have a surplus, imagine that your parents give you 10 dollars for lemonade stand, and Hank interrupts him - Michael i know what surplus is.

"the X Axix.."


Yep, that's about right

0:47
Oscar: "You find out it only costs 9 dollars"
Michael: *Happy noise*

All jokes aside, Oscar is really good at accounting. That explanation is top notch!

[alessandrodebonis]

Oscar actually explained what a surplus is extremely well

[nirau]

Oscar's patience is something to admire, such a professional. And his explanation is actually good!

[SleepySnowflake]

i dont even watch this show but this is one of the funniest things i have ever seen

[SamueITan]

I studied accounting and my lecturer explained what a surplus is but I didnt understand it until I watched this show.

I like how michael invites the camera to look after he told him to explain it as if he’s 8 .. he’s like this is for you not me lol

[batmansillo]

"ok, break it down in terms of... ok, ok i think im getting you" 🤦🏻‍♂️😂😂😂😂

[shreya]

Michael: "imagine you got money from your parents to open a lemonade stand".
Hank: I know what a surplus is.

[monty]

This scene is so relatable, it's terrifying.

"Next summer..."
..."I'll be 6" lmao

[DwikiIkhwan]

"Next summer, I'll be 6"

Genius!

[no.]

1:24 Michael was about to lower the age of explanation for a second.

[just_alex]

After 2 explanations, when he says “I think I’m getting you” 😂

Oscar is the finance guy every project needs to talk to the boss.
