Pam Pong Scorecard
Episode 106: Hot Girl
At first, Jim has no interest in Katy the purse girl: +2
He also can’t help but glance at Pam when asked what his “type” is: +2
Roy makes a belittling remark about his engagement with Pam: +1
Jim rushes to Pam to share in the spectacle of Dwight talking to Katy: +1
Pam comes straight to Jim with Michael gossip: +1
Pam initially rejects Roy’s apology: +1
But then starts giggling as Roy tickles her, right next to Jim: -4
Jim decided to make a move on Katy: -2
Things are deciding awkward between Jim and Pam after the tickling/Jim talking to Katy: -2
Pam watches Jim and Katy with a rather sad expression as she and Roy drive away: +2
Final score: +2, though on the surface it seems like there’s no Jim and Pam progress, there actually are a couple positive things to derive from this episode. We get a real glimpse of Roy’s insensitivity, and how tired Pam is becoming of it. We also see Jim’s crush isn’t entirely one sided; Pam is quite jealous of Katy, and we actually see her giving Jim a bit of a longing look at the end.
