Season 2

Christmas Party

Morale at the office Christmas party hits an all-time low after Michael (Steve Carell) suggests a game of "Yankee Swap" with the $20 secret Santa gifts - and everyone vies for the iPod he bought for Ryan (B.J. Novak). In an effort to raise his staff's sagging spirits, Michael introduces vodka shots and things liven up while Jim (John Krasinski) worries that the sentimental gift he got for Pam (Jenna Fischer) will end up in Dwight's (Rainn Wilson) hands.
