The official YouTube account of The Office released a video called "Making a Strangler" — a parody of Netflix's docuseries Making a Murderer.

"Making a Strangler" seems to peg Toby Flenderson as the potential Scranton Strangler through a series of clips that suggest Toby was a murderer. On multiple occasions, Toby seemed a bit suspicious, saying the person who was convicted was possibly framed and obsessing over the strangler.

Of course, it ends up that Toby is not the Scranton Strangler, as evidenced by the time Toby visited the convicted man and was strangled.
