The Office spoiler alert: Michael Scott will soon propose to Holly, and you won't believe how.

Okay, this is Michael Scott. You may believe how.

On next week's new episode, Steve Carell's character will seek advice on the ideal way to pop this important question, producer/star Paul Lieberstein tells TV Guide:

"He's paralyzed by wanting it to be the perfect proposal - and perfect in a 'Michael Scott' way," says Lieberstein. "Pam catches him in one of his early attempts, which is to spell out 'Will you marry me?" in gasoline in the parking lot - which he plans to light on fire!"

Titled "Garage Sale," next week's Office installment was meant to mark Amy Ryan's final appearance on the sitcom. But new rumors suggest she'll show up again on Carell's final episode.
