- The joke involves a misunderstanding about baby Astrid's paternity.
The Office alum Brian Baumgartner expressed dismay when a comedic bit he contributed was excluded from its original airdate. This particular joke, featured in the "Baby Shower" episode of Season 5, involved a humorous misinterpretation regarding the paternity of Jan's child, Astrid, with Michael Scott present.
Initially left on the cutting room floor, Baumgartner's comedic contribution has since found its way to streaming audiences. Fans can now view the restored scene on Peacock, where it appears in the "Super Fan" cut of the episode. The joke centers on a facial reaction implying the donated sperm might have originated from Kevin, a concept NBC initially found potentially confusing.
