Some people believe celebrity-packed films like Avengers: Endgame are the most ambitious crossover events in history, but those people have likely never seen their favorite scenes from The Office recreated in Animal Crossing.

The Office and Animal Crossing: New Horizons are two of the greatest forms of quarantine entertainment, so the fact that Twitter user @_baoluu thought to combine them was a stroke of pure genius.

When faced with an abundance of free time and an inability to sleep, the Office fan and Animal Crossing player decided to get creative and make his New Horizons island resemble Dunder Mifflin's Scranton office. He organized vending machines, chairs, tables, and more familiar-looking furniture to recreate the conference room and break room. Then, he staged some memorable scenes from the show with his neighbors, including this nearly uncanny unveiling of "Prison Mike."

The scenes aren't simply shown as screengrabs, though. Several recreations were acted out and recorded, and then audio from The Office was dubbed over the videos.

Here's a full version of Animal Crossing Michael Scott transforming into Animal Crossing Prison Mike.

And do you remember the iconic scene in "Stress Relief" when Michael learns to perform CPR on a dummy? Here it is Animal Crossing style, complete with Michael, the safety trainer and CPR dummy, Kevin, Jim, Creed, and more. And yes, everyone sings "Stayin' Alive" by the Bee Gees.

The extremely elite "Finer Things Club" has even been created in Animal Crossing. The break room looks great and everyone seems to be enjoying their tea and riveting conversation.

Not to be dramatic but this is one of the greatest things I've ever seen on Twitter. And lucky for us @_baoluu promised followers even more Animal Crossing tweets in the future.

We're going to need some Jim and Pam scenes, please!
