as the summer interns prepare to depart, Michael (Steve Carell) hears that two of them might be dating, but feels upset because he wasn’t told off the bat. he talks about it to the third intern and learns that while he was out with the other two interns, he saw Stanley (Leslie David Baker) there dancing with presumably his wife, Terri. Michael shares this news with the other employees, but Phyllis (Phyllis Smith) claims that Stanley doesn’t like dancing and that Terri is out of town. when Michael confronts the interns about this, they insist they saw Stanley there. now realizing that Stanley is possibly having an affair and being the first person to learn of this, he starts spreading the news around to almost every employee. Jim (John Krasinski) urges Michael to stop spreading this around when he doesn’t know for sure if it’s true. when Stanley is leaving, Michael heads to the parking lot to discuss the rumor with him. Stanley initially denies it, but when Michael brings up the interns seeing him at the club, he reveals that since Terri has been out of town constantly, he’s been seeking comfort from a nurse named Cynthia, whom he met in rehab. Stanley urges Michael not to say anything and Michael agrees, even though he had already told the entire office.
