Finally got around to seeing episode 3 on tv-links. Man, I was definitely relieved.
Episodes 1 and 2 tried too hard, and this one is right back on track.
I found the evil computer prank funny, and Dwight is absolutely the type to believe in such things. (remember the episode when Jim asks Dwight if he thinks humans and robots can coexist peacefully? Dwight starts answering the question seriously).
I'm glad I didn't see episode 3 before, because now I only have to wait 2 days before episode 4.
Hopefully it'll follow the "improvement" pattern and be even better than episode 3.
