ANew Horizonsplayer who goes by badmotorginger posted a series of pictures in theAnimal Crossingsubreddit showing off theirNew Horizonsrecreation of an iconic scene fromThe Office.Specifically, the ninth episode of the third season, titled “The Convict.” In it, Michael Scott does his best impression of the famousScared StraightTV series, where juvenile delinquents are subjected to intense screaming and stories of misery from real-life prisoners to get them back on the right track so they can avoid a future of incarceration. To begin the presentation, Michael dons a purple bandana, thus completing his transformation into the man fans have come to call “Prison Mike.”
Badmotorginger explains in the post’s title that Axel, a blue elephant villager who is really into fitness, gifted them a paisley bandanna that looked an awful lot like the one Michael Scott wore in “The Convict.” Good thing, too, since badmotorginger was already in the middle of construction on their recreation ofthe conference room from the set ofThe Office.Several villagers fill the room’s seats looking appropriately miserable as they have to struggle through another one of Michael’s “inspirational” talks.
Other members of theAnimal Crossingsubreddit seem to love badmotorginger’s faithful and hilarious recreation of one of the best moments from one of the funniest sitcoms ever made. Tons ofNew Horizonsplayers have honored one of their favorite shows by recreating their favorite moments, building recreations of the set, orfilming their own versions ofThe Office’s opening title sequence in-game. It just goes to show that if gamers are given the power to make anything they want in a game, it’s only a matter of time beforeThe Officepops up in some shape or form.
