10 Crazy Foreshadowing In The Office You Totally Missed
1. Michael Predicts Jim & Pam's Surprise Pregnancy
In season five's two-part premiere "Weight Loss," Jim is preparing to visit Pam - which ultimately results in him proposing to her - but before he heads off, Michael hands him a condom and tells him, "I don't want you to end up with a surprise pregnancy like me."
Michael, who may or may not have gotten Jan pregnant, offers Jim more condoms which Jim refuses, seemingly foretelling that Jim and Pam themselves end up with a surprise pregnancy in the same season's finale, "Company Picnic."
Thankfully, their reaction to the surprise was a good deal more harmonious than when Michael got the news from Jan.
Even so, it's clear that Michael Scott was written to be a veritable soothsayer throughout The Office, inadvertently foreshadowing the future wherever the writers could playfully shoehorn it in.
