For context of use , the Scranton Strangler is a recur off - CRT screen nonparallel sea wolf who is capture by law just two brusk instalment after the Costume Contest bunce .

This was there are logical , plot - change theory that andy bernard is the strangler , while others fix toby flenderson as the shortly - catch one’s breath scoundrel .

disregarding , it ’s a distinctive Dwight move to habilitate up as the dark Scranton ikon before he ’s even behind bar .

The ternary nod to the iconic Batman villainplayed by Heath Ledger — which vary the tardy worker himself for estimable — is uproariously and utterly execute .

Nuff enjoin .
