The episode’s final minutes saw Michael removing his microphone and heading off through airport security, only to be stopped by Pam, who caught up at the last second to say goodbye.
It was an especially sweet moment, made all the more poignant by the characters’ lack of microphones preventing us from hearing their tearful exchange.
Way back in Season 7’s “Goodbye, Michael,” the Steve Carell character attempted a stealthy exit for his new life in Colorado, but in doing so missed out on a chance to say goodbye to Fischer’s Pam.
