The proposal

Nick, never opting to do things in traditional ways, didn't go with the standard "Will you marry me?" He simply said "Well, I guess we should get married, huh?" To which Pam responded "Yeah, I guess so." Nick didn't have an engagement ring to present but to his surprise Pam said she did. She had been saving her grandmother's ring and wanted to use that. Being so young and relatively new in his job at the time, Nick wasn't going to be able to afford the nicest ring in the world, so Pam's willingness to provide said item was a nice "value add" (if you will) to the engagement. Once these things were settled, there's a greater than zero chance that both of them just went back to sleep.
