1
00:00:00,100 --> 00:00:03,501
<i>Now the story of a wealthy family</i>
<i>who lost everything...</i>

2
00:00:03,603 --> 00:00:05,594
<i>and the one son</i>
<i>who had no choice...</i>

3
00:00:05,705 --> 00:00:07,696
<i>but to keep them all together.</i>

4
00:00:13,246 --> 00:00:14,941
<i>It's</i> Arrested Development.

5
00:00:17,884 --> 00:00:20,785
<i>Michael was using</i>
<i>the Bluth Company crane...</i>

6
00:00:20,887 --> 00:00:25,119
<i>to retrieve the family-owned frozen banana stand</i>
<i>after it had been dumped in the bay...</i>

7
00:00:25,225 --> 00:00:28,058
<i>a holiday tradition</i>
<i>among the local youth.</i>

8
00:00:28,161 --> 00:00:31,961
- <i>Soon he returned home so that he and his son</i>-
- George Michael?

9
00:00:32,065 --> 00:00:34,465
<i>Could share</i>
<i>their holiday tradition of rebuilding it.</i>

10
00:00:34,567 --> 00:00:37,035
- Another one of Dad's suits?
- Hey, I'm the president now.

11
00:00:37,137 --> 00:00:41,335
I'm filling Dad's shoes...
literally, except his shoes don't fit.

12
00:00:41,441 --> 00:00:43,705
But I did finally get
into Dad's pants...

13
00:00:43,810 --> 00:00:46,904
although I had to have
the crotch taken in a little.

14
00:00:47,013 --> 00:00:49,709
You know, Gob, maybe it's the suits,
but I think you may be beginning...

15
00:00:49,816 --> 00:00:52,910
to alienate some
of the employees down at work.

16
00:00:53,019 --> 00:00:55,544
What? Oh, that's great.

17
00:00:55,655 --> 00:00:59,091
The president has to worry
about alienating the employees now.

18
00:00:59,192 --> 00:01:02,719
<i>In fact, Gob</i> had <i>started</i>
<i>to alienate some ofhis colleagues.</i>

19
00:01:02,829 --> 00:01:07,562
The worst that could happen is I could
spill some on my $3,000 suit. Come on!

20
00:01:07,667 --> 00:01:10,534
- Hey!
- The guy in the $4,000 suit...

21
00:01:10,637 --> 00:01:13,504
is holding the elevator for the guy
who doesn't make that in three months.

22
00:01:15,475 --> 00:01:17,909
Why don't I just take a whiz
through this $5,000 suit?

23
00:01:18,011 --> 00:01:21,538
Come on! They like me just fine.
You'll see that tonight...

24
00:01:21,648 --> 00:01:25,049
when they toast me at the Christmas party,
just like they used to with Dad.

25
00:01:25,151 --> 00:01:27,312
They used to <i>roast</i> Dad
'cause they thought that...

26
00:01:27,420 --> 00:01:30,355
he had a sense of humor about himself,
but he didn't, and neither do you.

27
00:01:30,456 --> 00:01:33,516
Hey, nobody laughed louder
than me at any joke about Dad.

28
00:01:33,626 --> 00:01:37,562
<i>You're the one who's all Mr.</i>
<i>"I take myself too seriously all the time."</i>

29
00:01:37,664 --> 00:01:40,531
<i>Michael did tend to take</i>
<i>the Christmas party somewhat seriously.</i>

30
00:01:40,633 --> 00:01:43,932
Merry Christmas. You can go ahead
and put that right in the charity barrel.

31
00:01:44,037 --> 00:01:46,835
Thanks a lot. Sorry, pal.
We just can't have them resent us.

32
00:01:46,940 --> 00:01:51,001
<i>I know some of the numbers haven't all</i>
<i>added up, and there is some speculation...</i>

33
00:01:51,110 --> 00:01:54,910
that George has been into the kitty-

34
00:01:55,014 --> 00:01:57,209
"Into the kitty"! That's awesome.

35
00:01:57,317 --> 00:02:00,980
Fire Tom
and get your jackass brother out of here.

36
00:02:01,087 --> 00:02:04,716
This year I'm not officially president,
and it'll be nice to actually have some fun...

37
00:02:04,824 --> 00:02:07,088
with my son
at a Christmas party.

38
00:02:07,193 --> 00:02:09,991
- Thank God I don't have to go.
- So glad to hear you say that.

39
00:02:10,096 --> 00:02:11,893
I wanna meet someone there.

40
00:02:11,998 --> 00:02:14,330
What? So I'm not invited to
the Bluth Company Christmas party?

41
00:02:14,434 --> 00:02:18,063
Oh, honey, of course
you can go if you want to.

42
00:02:18,171 --> 00:02:21,231
- Thanks, Mom.
- No. You're not going to that.

43
00:02:21,341 --> 00:02:24,833
You see, if I show up with you,
it'll just make me seem like I'm a mother.

44
00:02:24,944 --> 00:02:27,606
- I've never thought of you that way.
- That's sweet.

45
00:02:27,714 --> 00:02:32,947
<i>Well, I won't be going. I will</i>
<i>be head to toe in blue makeup until 8:01...</i>

46
00:02:33,052 --> 00:02:34,986
in case the Blue Man Group
needs their understudy, so-

47
00:02:35,088 --> 00:02:37,579
No, no, you have to go.
So when men find out...

48
00:02:37,690 --> 00:02:40,022
we're in an open relationship,
they'll see you're no threat.

49
00:02:40,126 --> 00:02:44,187
People hear the name Tobias,
they think big, black guy.

50
00:02:44,297 --> 00:02:46,822
Well, obviously I'm not a big guy.

51
00:02:46,933 --> 00:02:49,527
I'm not a Carl Weathers, <i>par exemple.</i>

52
00:02:49,636 --> 00:02:52,799
I forgot about Carl.
Is he still single?

53
00:02:52,905 --> 00:02:56,773
Hey, George Michael, I need you
to help me fix up the banana stand.

54
00:02:56,876 --> 00:02:59,276
No, I can't. I was supposed
to go to Ann's parents' Christmas party.

55
00:02:59,379 --> 00:03:02,974
- We're makin' yams.
- Tonight? Tonight is the office party.

56
00:03:03,082 --> 00:03:06,950
Well, did you want me to go to that? You're
always telling me not to have fun at those things.

57
00:03:07,053 --> 00:03:10,284
Yes. We might even
snatch a gift from the charity barrel.

58
00:03:10,390 --> 00:03:14,952
Oh. Okay, well-well, I think Ann's parents
are having their party on Bethlehem time...

59
00:03:15,061 --> 00:03:17,120
which is pretty early,
so maybe I can make an appearance.

60
00:03:17,230 --> 00:03:20,358
Make an appearance?
Uh- Uh- No, no. It's okay.

61
00:03:20,466 --> 00:03:23,230
- You be with Yam. It's fine. It's good.
- It's Ann.

62
00:03:23,336 --> 00:03:25,634
It's good. Have fun.

63
00:03:25,738 --> 00:03:29,265
<i>The boy's pulling away from you.</i>
<i>Are we having yams?</i>

64
00:03:29,375 --> 00:03:32,310
Yeah, I don't know what's goin' on with him.
You know, he's on Bethlehem time.

65
00:03:32,412 --> 00:03:34,346
He's spending every moment
of the day with this girl.

66
00:03:34,447 --> 00:03:37,314
- It's, like, I'm his father.
He should be spending most-
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

67
00:03:37,417 --> 00:03:41,854
Don't get involved. Believe me. When
I thought your first wife was driving us apart...

68
00:03:41,954 --> 00:03:43,922
I did not make a stink.

69
00:03:44,023 --> 00:03:48,653
You complained all the time,
and she was my only wife. And she died.

70
00:03:48,761 --> 00:03:51,924
Well, see, things have a way
of working themselves out.

71
00:03:52,031 --> 00:03:54,829
Nonetheless, it's family first at the holidays.

72
00:03:54,934 --> 00:03:57,664
- Oh, God. It's Mom again.
- <i>Put it on speakerphone.</i>

73
00:03:57,770 --> 00:04:00,238
I wanna hear
her beautiful voice.

74
00:04:00,340 --> 00:04:03,070
Michael! There's a hole in the window!
There's been a break-in!

75
00:04:03,176 --> 00:04:05,406
- Get over here!
- I'm leaving now.

76
00:04:05,511 --> 00:04:07,479
Sounds tense.

77
00:04:07,580 --> 00:04:11,949
That means she's not gettin' any
from my brother, Oscar. Lovely. That's nice.

78
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,289
I heard about the banana stand,
and now there's been a break-in.

79
00:04:17,390 --> 00:04:20,723
But I have a surprise
for whoever it is if he comes back.

80
00:04:20,827 --> 00:04:23,352
First I blow him;
then I poke him.

81
00:04:23,463 --> 00:04:26,432
Guy has no idea
what he's in for.

82
00:04:26,532 --> 00:04:31,231
You know, Mom, all the glass seems to be
on the outside. Plus, here's your little statue...

83
00:04:31,337 --> 00:04:35,273
<i>so I guess what this says to me is,</i>
<i>I doubt anyone was trying to break in, Mom.</i>

84
00:04:35,375 --> 00:04:38,367
If anything, someone was trying
to break out. Where is Oscar?

85
00:04:38,478 --> 00:04:41,879
Well, he's on his walkabout
or pilgrimage.

86
00:04:41,981 --> 00:04:45,542
<i>Every year,</i>
<i>Oscar attempts the 420-mile walk...</i>

87
00:04:45,651 --> 00:04:48,313
<i>from Newport Beach</i>
<i>to Berkeley, California.</i>

88
00:04:48,421 --> 00:04:51,219
<i>In the 12 years</i>
<i>he's attempted this...</i>

89
00:04:51,324 --> 00:04:55,090
<i>he's never made it past U.C. Irvine.</i>

90
00:04:55,194 --> 00:04:58,652
He calls it a quest to recharge his chi.
I call it an excuse for him...

91
00:04:58,765 --> 00:05:01,233
to score his pot
and wag his pickle at coeds.

92
00:05:01,334 --> 00:05:04,497
You sound mad, Mom, mad enough
to throw one of these little lady heads at him.

93
00:05:04,604 --> 00:05:08,700
- What's that supposed to mean?
- Well, maybe you're a little bit lonely...

94
00:05:08,808 --> 00:05:11,242
and you're acting out
for attention.

95
00:05:11,344 --> 00:05:14,404
That's ridiculous.
I want you to move in with me.

96
00:05:14,514 --> 00:05:18,450
What? No. No. No.
No, no, no, no.

97
00:05:18,551 --> 00:05:21,850
Didn't you adopt a child for this very reason?
So that you would never be alone?

98
00:05:21,954 --> 00:05:25,321
Michael, a mother doesn't have a child
to give herself company.

99
00:05:25,425 --> 00:05:29,088
- Annyong was to teach Buster a lesson.
- And where is that little lesson?

100
00:05:29,195 --> 00:05:34,030
I sent him to the Milford Academy to
teach <i>him</i> a lesson. I can't remember about what.

101
00:05:34,133 --> 00:05:37,125
And Buster left this morning
to finish his army training.

102
00:05:37,236 --> 00:05:41,866
<i>In fact, Lucille had refused</i>
<i>to drive him to the army base...</i>

103
00:05:41,974 --> 00:05:44,875
<i>so Buster was taking</i>
<i>his very first bus ride.</i>

104
00:05:44,977 --> 00:05:47,377
- I can't change a hundred.
- Oh.

105
00:05:48,815 --> 00:05:52,717
Oh, God. Oh.

106
00:05:52,819 --> 00:05:56,152
<i>And that's when Buster</i>
<i>saw something interesting.</i>

107
00:05:57,924 --> 00:06:00,518
That could be good for army.

108
00:06:03,296 --> 00:06:07,494
<i>Whilejust 20 yards away,</i>
<i>Michael went to work repairing the banana stand.</i>

109
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,465
What are you doin' here?

110
00:06:09,569 --> 00:06:12,970
My mom signed me out of school early,
so she wouldn't have to pick me up later...

111
00:06:13,072 --> 00:06:15,131
so she wouldn't be late
for the Christmas party.

112
00:06:15,241 --> 00:06:17,869
- That's about the worst thing I've ever heard.
- I had to drive...

113
00:06:17,977 --> 00:06:21,174
- because she had a little bit of a buzz on.
- No. That's it.

114
00:06:21,280 --> 00:06:24,977
- You doing this alone?
- Yeah. Well, thanks.

115
00:06:25,084 --> 00:06:28,144
I guess George Michael's gettin' a little too old
to hang out with his dad.

116
00:06:28,254 --> 00:06:31,155
- Yeah, and I'm getting too old
for my mom to be with me.
- You know what?

117
00:06:31,257 --> 00:06:33,657
- Maybe we should go to this party together.
- Really?

118
00:06:33,759 --> 00:06:36,387
Yeah. You're my little niece. I think
we should be spending more time together.

119
00:06:36,496 --> 00:06:40,990
- And if it makes my mom jealous-
- And George Michael can run back
to his precious Ann.

120
00:06:41,100 --> 00:06:43,728
Great. Good deal.

121
00:06:51,020 --> 00:06:54,285
<i>Michael and Maeby stopped</i>
<i>by the office to see if Gob needed help...</i>

122
00:06:54,588 --> 00:06:56,647
<i>for the party</i>
<i>that was now hours away.</i>

123
00:06:56,756 --> 00:06:59,452
...king $6,300 suit!

124
00:06:59,559 --> 00:07:01,891
- Come on!
- Hi there.

125
00:07:01,995 --> 00:07:06,864
- What's she doin' here?
- Merry Christmas to you too, Uncle Gob.

126
00:07:06,967 --> 00:07:10,630
- Everything all right?
- I just don't want people's kids
getting their sticky fingers...

127
00:07:10,737 --> 00:07:12,637
all over these $2,600 pants.

128
00:07:12,739 --> 00:07:14,798
Oh, yeah? You think
they're gonna go right for the pants?

129
00:07:14,908 --> 00:07:19,971
Okay, okay, okay. So, should-
should- should- should, should, should-

130
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:24,073
- Shh.
- Should- should- should-

131
00:07:24,184 --> 00:07:26,311
<i>We'll do it your way.</i>
<i>I'm just here to have fun.</i>

132
00:07:26,419 --> 00:07:29,513
Not too much fun, all right? I already
gave my big sexual harassment speech today.

133
00:07:29,623 --> 00:07:32,922
And please refrain from
discussing or engaging...

134
00:07:33,026 --> 00:07:35,927
in any sort of interoffice-

135
00:07:36,029 --> 00:07:38,520
<i>Or-</i>
<i>Or finger-</i>

136
00:07:38,632 --> 00:07:41,658
Or- fisting
or-

137
00:07:41,768 --> 00:07:47,707
Or even- even though
so many people in this office are begging for it.

138
00:07:47,807 --> 00:07:51,709
And if anybody does anything
with my sister Lindsay...

139
00:07:51,811 --> 00:07:56,180
<i>I'll take off my pants,</i>
<i>I'll shave-</i>

140
00:07:56,283 --> 00:07:58,513
And I'll personally-

141
00:07:58,618 --> 00:08:00,711
- Let's get this going.
- What are you talking about?

142
00:08:00,820 --> 00:08:03,380
Now? You're not gonna let these people
go home and change their clothes?

143
00:08:03,490 --> 00:08:06,891
I don't think we need people tryin'
to compete with what I'm wearing.

144
00:08:06,993 --> 00:08:11,020
Everybody, come out of your offices, please.
The party has now started.

145
00:08:11,131 --> 00:08:15,932
Here we go. Let's go.

146
00:08:17,904 --> 00:08:21,396
Everybody dance now.

147
00:08:21,508 --> 00:08:24,773
Everybody dance <i>now.</i>

148
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,376
I think we're off
to a great start.

149
00:08:29,482 --> 00:08:32,713
<i>And so, Michael started</i>
<i>to become relaxed, and a short time later...</i>

150
00:08:32,819 --> 00:08:34,844
<i>his mother arrived anything but.</i>

151
00:08:34,955 --> 00:08:37,981
Someone broke in again.
The liquor is gone. All of it- gone.

152
00:08:38,091 --> 00:08:41,117
<i>In fact, Gob had stolen it earlier that day...</i>

153
00:08:41,228 --> 00:08:43,321
<i>to cut down on the cost</i>
<i>of the party.</i>

154
00:08:43,430 --> 00:08:47,890
- Hey, need a hand with that?
- No, Al. I wanna spill booze all over my f-

155
00:08:48,001 --> 00:08:51,402
- I'm all alone there, Michael.
- You know, Buster's only
stationed about five miles away.

156
00:08:51,504 --> 00:08:54,439
<i>In fact, Buster never went to the army.</i>

157
00:08:54,541 --> 00:08:59,444
<i>He'd gotten hooked playing the skill crane</i>
<i>and missed his first day.</i>

158
00:08:59,546 --> 00:09:03,573
- <i>Somewhat ashamed and with nowhere</i>
<i>to go, he returned home.</i>
- Hey, Buster.

159
00:09:03,683 --> 00:09:06,243
Buster!

160
00:09:06,353 --> 00:09:11,017
Thank God you're back!
There's no shame in being a coward.

161
00:09:11,124 --> 00:09:13,991
A coward? I'm not a coward.

162
00:09:14,094 --> 00:09:17,655
- Would a coward have this?
- What the hell is that?

163
00:09:17,764 --> 00:09:21,359
These are my awards, Mother,
from army.

164
00:09:21,468 --> 00:09:23,698
The seal is for marksmanship...

165
00:09:23,803 --> 00:09:27,102
and the gorilla is for sand racing.

166
00:09:27,207 --> 00:09:30,335
- You're doing well?
- I was just dropping these off.

167
00:09:30,443 --> 00:09:34,777
Now, if you'll excuse me, they're
putting me in something called Hero Squad.

168
00:09:34,881 --> 00:09:38,112
You have no idea what it's like
to be abandoned by your son.

169
00:09:38,218 --> 00:09:40,709
Do you see my son?
He chose his girlfriend over me.

170
00:09:40,820 --> 00:09:45,450
How the worm has turned.
Look who feels the sting of an ungrateful child.

171
00:09:45,558 --> 00:09:48,152
Mother, you have
to receive something to be ungrateful.

172
00:09:48,261 --> 00:09:51,230
I'm not gettin' worked up over it tonight.
I'm not gonna let anything bother me.

173
00:09:51,331 --> 00:09:56,769
Good. I'll get a drink and then go home
and wait for you to come stay with me.

174
00:09:56,870 --> 00:09:59,464
Thank God they've got my brands here.

175
00:09:59,572 --> 00:10:01,506
<i>This was an unacceptable solution.</i>

176
00:10:01,608 --> 00:10:07,478
Hey, Tobias, it's Michael. I hope you get this.
I need you to go over to my mother's tonight.

177
00:10:07,580 --> 00:10:09,810
<i>Unfortunately, Tobias missed the call...</i>

178
00:10:09,916 --> 00:10:11,816
<i>and it went through</i>
<i>to Michael's home voice mail.</i>

179
00:10:11,918 --> 00:10:14,148
The Blue Men!

180
00:10:14,254 --> 00:10:17,655
<i>You have</i>
<i>101 unheard messages. First message.</i>

181
00:10:17,757 --> 00:10:20,726
- Michael, it's your mother-
- Michael, pick up.

182
00:10:20,827 --> 00:10:22,818
Happy Thanksgiving- Michael, it's Mother-

183
00:10:22,929 --> 00:10:24,829
Michael, pick up-

184
00:10:24,931 --> 00:10:28,389
- Hey, Tobias, it's Michael.
- Bluth Company.

185
00:10:30,537 --> 00:10:32,937
<i>And Lindsay showed up</i>
<i>at the Christmas party.</i>

186
00:10:33,039 --> 00:10:37,499
<i>Unfortunately, she didn't realize the employees</i>
<i>had been threatened against flirting.</i>

187
00:10:37,610 --> 00:10:42,013
Oh, hello, Ted. Oh, if you're worried
about my husband, it's fine.

188
00:10:42,115 --> 00:10:46,677
He's no bigger than a Cub Scout. You could
take him, and you could certainly take me.

189
00:10:46,786 --> 00:10:50,517
This has been pleasant and professional.
Good luck in the coming business year.

190
00:10:54,494 --> 00:10:58,954
Hey, you guys are
sticking stuff on Gob's suit?
- Shh.

191
00:10:59,065 --> 00:11:01,761
Go away.
You're gonna ruin it.

192
00:11:03,136 --> 00:11:05,434
Aunt Lindsay,
how's the party?

193
00:11:05,538 --> 00:11:08,029
It is the worst Christmas party
I've ever been to in my life.

194
00:11:08,141 --> 00:11:10,735
Yeah. Watch this.

195
00:11:10,844 --> 00:11:14,712
Yep. Like my last 10 years. And my daughter
won't give me the time of day.

196
00:11:14,814 --> 00:11:17,374
- How was your party?
- Oh, it was good.

197
00:11:17,484 --> 00:11:21,545
They're kind of religious,
Ann's family, so it was-

198
00:11:21,654 --> 00:11:24,145
Yeah, it was just kind of-

199
00:11:24,257 --> 00:11:27,784
<i>The word George Michael</i>
<i>was searching for was "creepy."</i>

200
00:11:37,737 --> 00:11:40,638
Let me give you a hand
with that, little fella.

201
00:11:46,780 --> 00:11:49,908
Hey, I was talkin' to the sound guy,
and he said he's got this karaoke thing.

202
00:11:50,016 --> 00:11:52,610
- Yeah. Let's do it. Put the first song on in the book.
- Okay.

203
00:11:52,719 --> 00:11:55,586
Okay? Thanks very much.
Hey. I thought you were at your party.

204
00:11:55,688 --> 00:11:58,282
No, no. They said I could leave
for the second hour of silent prayer.

205
00:11:58,391 --> 00:12:02,157
But Ann and I do have to go back,
so I should- I should go soon.

206
00:12:02,262 --> 00:12:04,321
- Uncle Michael-
- Okay. I'll be right there.

207
00:12:04,431 --> 00:12:07,923
Sorry. I gotta go do this.
I'll be right back.

208
00:12:08,034 --> 00:12:11,492
<i>And Michael</i>
<i>sang a duet with his niece.</i>

209
00:12:14,741 --> 00:12:17,335
My daughter doesn't need me.

210
00:12:17,444 --> 00:12:19,503
Neither does my dad.

211
00:12:19,612 --> 00:12:22,911
<i>Had George Michael</i>
<i>and Lindsay stayed, they might have discovered...</i>

212
00:12:23,016 --> 00:12:28,477
<i>what Michael and Maeby did</i>- <i>that</i>
<i>"Afternoon Delight"was more adult-themed...</i>

213
00:12:28,588 --> 00:12:30,783
<i>than its innocent melody</i>
<i>would have you believe.</i>

214
00:12:37,230 --> 00:12:40,290
- Hang on, Maeby.

215
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:44,166
Listen. I'm gonna
go get some more punch, because it is toast time.

216
00:12:44,270 --> 00:12:48,673
<i>Okay? No, no, no.</i>
<i>It'll look worse. Go that way.</i>

217
00:12:48,775 --> 00:12:51,801
So, let's toast me.
Who's first?

218
00:12:51,911 --> 00:12:57,474
Huh. Tom, why don't you come up here
and talk about me for a few minutes?

219
00:12:57,584 --> 00:13:00,815
Uh, I wanna thank
the Bluth family for hiring me back.

220
00:13:00,920 --> 00:13:03,150
It's been a tough couple years.

221
00:13:03,256 --> 00:13:05,986
- My brother did that. Talk about me.
- <i>Oh, okay.</i>

222
00:13:06,092 --> 00:13:09,653
Uh, you certainly
do love those suits.

223
00:13:09,762 --> 00:13:14,358
<i>At seven grand, you'd better believe I love 'em.</i>
<i>I mean, look at what you're wearing.</i>

224
00:13:14,467 --> 00:13:17,868
You look like crap.
I mean, at least this is-

225
00:13:17,971 --> 00:13:20,269
Who did this?

226
00:13:20,373 --> 00:13:22,841
You do this, Tom?

227
00:13:22,942 --> 00:13:26,503
- No.
- You're a real smart-ass. You know that, Tom?

228
00:13:26,613 --> 00:13:28,547
Look, I don't know him very well...

229
00:13:28,648 --> 00:13:32,709
but Gob seems like
he'd be a really smart boss.

230
00:13:32,819 --> 00:13:35,344
Please don't laugh.

231
00:13:35,455 --> 00:13:39,016
Look, he's a great magician.

232
00:13:39,125 --> 00:13:42,561
<i>- That's even better!</i>
- you, Tom.

233
00:13:42,662 --> 00:13:44,789
- Please don't.
- You know what? You're fired.

234
00:13:44,898 --> 00:13:49,130
No. You're all fired,
each and every one of you.

235
00:13:49,235 --> 00:13:51,601
Merry Christmas.

236
00:13:51,704 --> 00:13:54,901
I didn't know the lyrics.
Where's everybody goin'?

237
00:13:55,008 --> 00:13:57,033
- We don't work here anymore.
- What?

238
00:13:57,143 --> 00:14:00,112
Is your sister still around?

239
00:14:03,631 --> 00:14:06,498
<i>The Christmas party had been a disaster.</i>

240
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:11,094
I did the right thing, Michael. If I don't
fire them, how do I teach a lesson to the others?

241
00:14:11,205 --> 00:14:16,609
- There are no others. You fired everyone.
- Oh, that- that's great.

242
00:14:16,710 --> 00:14:21,204
The guy who's dirty dancing with his niece
is gonna tell the guy in the $3,600 suit...

243
00:14:21,315 --> 00:14:23,749
how to run the business.

244
00:14:23,851 --> 00:14:26,149
- Come on.
- I know. Maybe we're better off...

245
00:14:26,253 --> 00:14:30,815
with me being businesslike and you
being the good-time, useless party guy.

246
00:14:30,925 --> 00:14:32,893
- It got us this far.
- Mm-hmm.

247
00:14:32,993 --> 00:14:37,089
And I must say that I miss the laughter.
Oh, God, how they used to laugh with me.

248
00:14:37,197 --> 00:14:39,927
At you. We gotta figure out a way
to hire everybody back.

249
00:14:40,034 --> 00:14:41,934
- A meeting.
- A party.

250
00:14:42,036 --> 00:14:44,903
- No. We just had a party.
- Yeah, but I didn't get to have any fun.

251
00:14:45,005 --> 00:14:47,803
<i>So Michael went to work</i>
<i>on another Christmas party...</i>

252
00:14:47,908 --> 00:14:50,741
<i>this time with the help</i>
<i>ofhis niece.</i>

253
00:14:50,844 --> 00:14:53,438
<i>I appreciate you doing this.</i>
<i>I didn't wanna ask George Michael.</i>

254
00:14:53,547 --> 00:14:57,347
Did you see that he showed up at the party
for five minutes and left without saying good-bye?

255
00:14:57,451 --> 00:15:01,080
- Hey, my mom doesn't even wanna
be in the same room with me.
- Michael...

256
00:15:01,188 --> 00:15:04,385
I was almost attacked
last night in my own home.

257
00:15:04,491 --> 00:15:06,618
I walk in, and there's a colored man
in my kitchen.

258
00:15:06,727 --> 00:15:09,821
- "Colored"? What color was he exactly?
- Blue.

259
00:15:11,398 --> 00:15:13,263
Hello, Lucille.

260
00:15:15,135 --> 00:15:18,104
- I sent him to your house to keep you safe.
- Well, he did a terrible job.

261
00:15:18,205 --> 00:15:23,609
Didn't he? I need someone else, someone better.
What about this one? She's got thick arms.

262
00:15:23,711 --> 00:15:26,839
Mom, you just need to calm down a little bit.
You're so tense.

263
00:15:26,947 --> 00:15:29,142
How am I supposed
to calm down?

264
00:15:29,249 --> 00:15:33,447
Sounds tense. That means she's not
gettin' any from my brother Oscar.

265
00:15:33,554 --> 00:15:35,749
<i>Maybe I should move in with you.</i>

266
00:15:35,856 --> 00:15:38,689
<i>And Michael realized</i>
<i>he needed to retrieve his Uncle Oscar.</i>

267
00:15:38,792 --> 00:15:41,056
How would you like
to go on a road trip?

268
00:15:41,161 --> 00:15:44,028
No. I wanna stay here
with her. Let's go.

269
00:15:44,131 --> 00:15:46,998
<i>And so the two of them</i>
<i>prepared to drive up the coast.</i>

270
00:15:47,101 --> 00:15:50,901
You're in charge of the radio, and we're
not stopping until we find Uncle Oscar.

271
00:15:51,005 --> 00:15:54,133
There he is.

272
00:15:54,241 --> 00:15:59,736
My mom is very stressed out,
and she needs something that I can't give her-

273
00:15:59,847 --> 00:16:03,305
um, maybe a little
afternoon delight.

274
00:16:03,417 --> 00:16:06,648
<i>Oscar thought that Michael</i>
<i>was referring to a particular brand of cannabis...</i>

275
00:16:06,754 --> 00:16:11,088
<i>named Afternoon Deelite,</i>
<i>a strain famous for slowing behavior.</i>

276
00:16:11,191 --> 00:16:14,058
<i>Well, sure. The question is...</i>

277
00:16:14,161 --> 00:16:18,154
which way do I try
to get it in her?

278
00:16:18,265 --> 00:16:20,733
I don't need any details.

279
00:16:20,834 --> 00:16:23,200
- Maybe I'll put it in her brownie.
- Hey!

280
00:16:23,303 --> 00:16:26,602
- What happened to you?
- What?

281
00:16:26,707 --> 00:16:32,202
<i>Oh, oh. My ears. The doctor said</i>
<i>I can't go to sleep for five hours...</i>

282
00:16:32,312 --> 00:16:35,281
or I might die or something.

283
00:16:35,382 --> 00:16:39,341
Oh, I got blown,
so I can't sleep.

284
00:16:41,155 --> 00:16:43,385
<i>Hey, have you seen Maeby?</i>

285
00:16:43,490 --> 00:16:46,618
You're not gonna believe this. Apparently
my dad and Maeby took a drive up the coast.

286
00:16:46,727 --> 00:16:50,219
- You're kidding me.
- <i>Uh-oh. I should not have picked at that.</i>

287
00:16:50,330 --> 00:16:52,423
- <i>That's blood.</i>
- This is ridiculous.

288
00:16:52,533 --> 00:16:55,263
- So she's got a new parent.
- Yeah. Now my dad's got a new kid.

289
00:16:55,369 --> 00:17:01,035
I'm gonna lie down for a little bit,
but just- I c- I can't fall-

290
00:17:03,644 --> 00:17:06,613
Hey, how would you like
to come to the party with me today?

291
00:17:06,714 --> 00:17:10,616
<i>And Oscar was giving Lucille</i>
<i>a little Afternoon Deelite.</i>

292
00:17:10,718 --> 00:17:14,154
- These are really delicious.
- I'll get some more.

293
00:17:14,254 --> 00:17:16,313
<i>Okay</i>

294
00:17:17,357 --> 00:17:19,757
<i>Mm-hmm</i>

295
00:17:19,860 --> 00:17:22,795
Where did she go?

296
00:17:22,896 --> 00:17:26,957
<i>Soon, the second Bluth Company</i>
<i>Christmas party in as many days began.</i>

297
00:17:27,067 --> 00:17:30,093
- You are not fired, sir.
- I really appreciate that.

298
00:17:30,204 --> 00:17:32,570
You got it. Here you go. Merry Christmas.
Where the hell is my brother?

299
00:17:32,673 --> 00:17:35,233
<i>Sure, the guy in the $600 banana suit.</i>

300
00:17:35,342 --> 00:17:39,108
- Come on!
- Hi.

301
00:17:44,184 --> 00:17:46,448
- What the hell are you doing?
- Hey, don't be mad at me...

302
00:17:46,553 --> 00:17:48,680
'cause you didn't think
about going out to Tarzana...

303
00:17:48,789 --> 00:17:50,689
to get the old banana suit
out of storage.

304
00:17:50,791 --> 00:17:54,249
<i>But it's worth it, because it's time for me</i>
<i>to make people laugh again.</i>

305
00:17:54,361 --> 00:17:56,295
With me.

306
00:17:56,396 --> 00:18:00,264
And what's funnier than a guy in-
Oh- Hey, wait. Hey.

307
00:18:03,270 --> 00:18:07,229
Okay.

308
00:18:09,042 --> 00:18:11,533
<i>Later, Gob was inside the banana stand...</i>

309
00:18:11,645 --> 00:18:15,843
<i>and it was getting pretty hot in there,</i>
<i>so he decided to lose a layer.</i>

310
00:18:15,949 --> 00:18:20,318
<i>Hey, look. There's your mom and George Michael.</i>
<i>I guess they did come to support us after all.</i>

311
00:18:20,420 --> 00:18:23,048
Look at that. They're all over each other
with their little secrets.

312
00:18:23,157 --> 00:18:26,149
- What can you do, right?
- Yeah.

313
00:18:26,260 --> 00:18:29,286
How would you feel
about singing a little karaoke?

314
00:18:29,396 --> 00:18:33,025
<i>Unfortunately, Lindsay wasn't there</i>
<i>to see all of Michael and Maeby's song...</i>

315
00:18:33,133 --> 00:18:35,499
<i>and was about</i>
<i>to have a similar revelation.</i>

316
00:18:35,602 --> 00:18:37,536
Could not be caught
that didn't bite

317
00:18:37,638 --> 00:18:40,801
But you got some bait
a-waitin', and I think I might

318
00:18:40,908 --> 00:18:43,399
- <i>Try nibbling a little afternoon delight</i>
- That's my wife and nephew.

319
00:18:43,510 --> 00:18:47,640
- <i>Skyrockets in flight</i>
- We have an open relationship.

320
00:18:47,748 --> 00:18:52,685
<i>Just then, Lucille arrived,</i>
<i>craving a frozen banana.</i>

321
00:18:52,786 --> 00:18:56,847
<i>And the effects of Lindsay and George Michael's</i>
<i>"Afternoon Delight"was overshadowed</i>-

322
00:18:56,957 --> 00:19:00,051
- Mom?
- <i>by the effects of Oscar</i>
<i>and Lucille's Afternoon Deelite.</i>

323
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,652
- Tobias-Tobias, watch out.
- <i>Tobias couldn't hear</i>-

324
00:19:03,764 --> 00:19:06,426
- Tobias!
- <i>and didn't manage to get out of the way in time.</i>

325
00:19:06,533 --> 00:19:08,558
What the hell was that?

326
00:19:08,669 --> 00:19:12,935
<i>And Gob couldn't move freely.</i>
<i>Lucille tried to stop...</i>

327
00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:15,008
<i>but the car</i>
<i>hit Gob's banana peel.</i>

328
00:19:20,647 --> 00:19:22,774
I can't get out of here. I'm stuck.

329
00:19:22,883 --> 00:19:25,181
Mom, are you crazy?
You could've killed somebody.

330
00:19:25,285 --> 00:19:29,619
<i>Hey, Mikey, relax.</i>
<i>It's just a giant banana.</i>

331
00:19:29,723 --> 00:19:33,682
<i>And that's when Buster</i>
<i>saw an opportunity to be a hero.</i>

332
00:19:33,794 --> 00:19:35,887
- Gob?
- Mom, I'm stuck!

333
00:19:35,996 --> 00:19:38,897
I got you, Brother!

334
00:19:48,709 --> 00:19:51,678
<i>And for the second time</i>
<i>since he became president...</i>

335
00:19:51,778 --> 00:19:54,542
<i>Gob heard the sweet sound</i>
<i>oflaughter.</i>

336
00:19:54,648 --> 00:20:00,382
They're laughing with me, Michael.
They're laughing with me!

337
00:20:00,487 --> 00:20:03,820
<i>Unfortunately,</i>
<i>Buster's newfound skills...</i>

338
00:20:03,924 --> 00:20:07,917
<i>did not involve</i>
<i>lowering gently.</i>

339
00:20:08,028 --> 00:20:11,122
<i>Ooh. Oh.</i>

340
00:20:14,001 --> 00:20:18,233
<i>Hey, it's Tobias.</i>
<i>Who wants to take me to the hospital?</i>

341
00:20:18,338 --> 00:20:20,932
<i>And so father and son reunited...</i>

342
00:20:21,041 --> 00:20:23,976
<i>rebuilding the banana stand</i>
<i>for a second time.</i>

343
00:20:24,077 --> 00:20:27,137
- Hey. Can I give you a hand?
- <i>Hey. Yeah.</i>

344
00:20:27,247 --> 00:20:31,081
- That would be great.
- Okay.

345
00:20:31,184 --> 00:20:35,553
- Oh, I'm sorry about-
It's embarrassing, the whole-
- Listen, I, uh-

346
00:20:35,656 --> 00:20:37,988
I've been a little out of line lately.
You're entitled...

347
00:20:38,091 --> 00:20:40,525
to be with your girlfriend,
and I guess I got a little bit jealous.

348
00:20:40,627 --> 00:20:43,596
- Yeah. Well, me too.
- Yeah.

349
00:20:43,697 --> 00:20:46,393
Okay.

350
00:20:52,205 --> 00:20:55,504
- Gonna grab some afternoon-
- Afternoon

351
00:20:55,609 --> 00:20:58,169
- It does not seem like it would be that dirty.
- It's- It is catchy.

352
00:20:58,278 --> 00:20:59,609
Right. That's the thing.

353
00:20:59,713 --> 00:21:02,648
<i>On the next</i> Arrested Development.

354
00:21:02,749 --> 00:21:05,877
<i>The Blue Man Group finally calls for Tobias...</i>

355
00:21:05,986 --> 00:21:09,820
<i>With a life-changing opportunity.</i>

356
00:21:09,923 --> 00:21:13,950
<i>Unfortunately, he can't hear it,</i>
<i>and his life stays the same.</i>
