Michael Scott is frustrated that Take Your Daughter to Work Day will force him to tone down his office antics, and says that he would never want to be a father. Toby Flenderson and Stanley Hudson bring their daughters, Sasha and Melissa respectively, Kevin Malone brings his fiancée's daughter, Abby, and Meredith Palmer brings her son, Jake. Because she is getting married soon and hopes to become a mother, Pam Beesly is determined to befriend one child by the end of the day. She tries with Abby (who instead takes a liking to Jim Halpert) and Melissa (who she inadvertently alienates by talking positively about her stepmother). Jim enlists Abby in helping him make sales. Sasha walks into Michael's office and plays with his toys, and after he jokes she becomes fond of him.

Michael walked over to his desk and took a sip of his coffee wondering how his day could get any worse.
