I thought he was going to fire all three of them.
They all deserved it.

As was said on your fired - the fact that Michael did speak up and defend himself and Sara didn't is probably what saved him. I think that SMS was within one point of a finger of firing him too this week

I thought the whole firing scene seemed very strangely edited to be honest. Don't know if anyone else agrees?

I may have to watch it back at some point to check.

I honestly thought he was going to fire Michael too, just the expression on his face said it all, I also think he regretted not firing him as soon as he said he wouldn't
