The Office is back! Yes, our favorite Scrantonites return tonight and, as Rainn Wilson tells me exclusively, "Some very big poop goes down" with the Dwight-Angela-Andy love triangle in the next few episodes.

Tonight's episode is titled "The Duel," and it's about what happens when Andy finds out that he's been, well, "cuckholded by a stronger, smarter male": He challenges Dwight to a duel for Angela's heart.

At the In Style/Warner Brothers party at the Golden Globes, Jenna Fischerhad this to say about the duel: "I can tell you that it's one of my favorite episodes of the year. It's great. Great! How the duel ends is amazing."

The big question, of course, is which lucky (?) suitor will end up with Angela?

Will it be her fiancé, Andy, who is still gleefully clueless to Dwangela's naughty office wrestling matches, or the guy who tricked her into marrying him via a German-speaking officiant, Dwight?

An insider tells me, "Ultimately the fans will be pleased, but how they get there is pretty hilarious." I hear the person who spills the beans to Andy is exactly the person you would expect, and no, it is not Phyllis or Angela or Dwight. And the episode picks up a few weeks after we last saw our Dunder faves.

Oh, and speaking of Office news, you should know that Wire star Idris Elba will be joining the cast for a six-ep run.as a new corporate honcho who tortures Michael Scott.

What we want to know is, Who are you rooting for, Andy or Dwight? Who will win? Who should win? Sound off in the poll and comments below!
