Ep 11. Classy Christmas, Part 1

In The Office season 7 episode 11 titled "Classy Christmas, Part 1," the holiday season is in full swing at Dunder Mifflin. The employees are excitedly preparing for their annual Christmas party, with decorations, gift exchanges, and plenty of holiday cheer. However, when Michael Scott (Steve Carell) learns that his girlfriend Holly (Amy Ryan) will be transferring back to Scranton for the holidays, he goes overboard with his planning for the party, trying to impress her with his hosting skills.

Meanwhile, Andy Bernard (Ed Helms) and Erin Hannon (Ellie Kemper) are struggling with their on-again-off-again relationship, with Andy planning a grand romantic gesture to win Erin back. Jim Halpert (John Krasinski) and Dwight Schrute (Rainn Wilson) are also at odds, with Dwight trying to one-up Jim in the gift exchange by buying him increasingly weird and inappropriate presents.

As the party gets underway, tensions rise and hilarity ensues, with each character bringing their own unique brand of holiday madness to the festivities. From Angela's (Angela Kinsey) strict rules for the gift exchange to Kevin's (Brian Baumgartner) questionable attempts at making his own Christmas cookies, no one is quite sure what to expect at this year's Dunder Mifflin holiday bash.

As the episode comes to a close, Michael's attempts at impressing Holly with his party planning backfire, leading to a disappointing end to the first half of this two-part Christmas special. But with plenty of laughs and heartwarming moments, "Classy Christmas, Part 1" sets the stage for an unforgettable holiday celebration at Dunder Mifflin.
