The office is long gone, but with its release on Peacock, a bunch of new footage sees the light of day. Including an unused cold open that captures iconic moments of The matrix.

A classic Office fashion, this is a prank on Dwight. An elaborate, theatrical stroll, one that is ape The matrix in an extended tribute, including errors in the Matrix, Agents, and a choice of pills. With the the late Hugh Dane as Hank as “Dorpheus”, Morpheus’ brother, it’s a silly and fun reference with a nice twist at the end.

It may not be the most riotous funny cold I’ve ever seen, but the dedication here is astounding. The fact that the chairs look mostly right is what gets them I. These are very iconic chairs.

For more The office, it’s streaming on Peacock, and many behind – the – scenes and cut content find their way to Peacock’s YouTube presence.
