10 Crazy Foreshadowing In The Office You Totally Missed

6. Dwight Plays The Long Game With Angela

You might remember that the season three two-part episode "A Benihana Christmas" sees Angela (Angela Kinsey) performing a karaoke rendition of the song "The Little Drummer Boy," while Dwight holds up the mic and knowingly looks at the camera.

In season five, we learn that this is in fact Angela's favourite song, but if we go all the way back to the series' pilot episode, there's a sneaky hint suggesting that she and Dwight are destined to end up together.

In the pilot, the very first thing we see Dwight do is annoy Jim (John Krasinski) by humming and vocalising along to a song. The song? You guessed it - The Little Drummer Boy.

Even though Jenna Fischer and Angela Kinsey dismissed it as a mere coincidence on their "Office Ladies" podcast, it still creates an immediate link between Dwight and Angela from the show's first few minutes.
