SPOILER ALERT (THE ENDING OF THE MOVIE):
How it ends: Not all of the facts are discussed in this episode and the movie has more than one story line. As to Milton, he finally gets fed up and angry that his boss and co-workers fail to take him seriously. Having been denied his red stapler and stepped on too often Milton burns down the building where he worked resulting in the demise of the company.
The movie “Office Space” has become a cult classic well worth watching.
