I found Jim's character to be really annoying in this episode, but I can't quite put my finger on why.

I don't agree. At all. He was put in an incredibly awkward situation and acted incredibly awkward in it.

Yeah, I loved Jim in this episode because it actually showed his character in more depth. He's normally the even tempered, joke-making guy. But in this episode we actually see him annoyed and angry. I thought he did the whole car ride really really well.

And that ending was awesome.

I absolutely loved the car ride scenes. Jim's panicked/angry reaction to Michael and Dwight telling him that they're going to Utica was absolutely perfect. He reacted the same way any normal person would have reacted under the same circumstances.

The awkwardness and embarassment he showed in Utica when he got caught by his ex was also completely spot on.

Jim isn't a "super-cool" guy that can do no wrong. He's a little awkward and dorky, and this episode clearly showed these flaws.
