You're just a big chicken. 45 00:02:29,705 --> 00:02:31,605 Michael realized it might be time... 46 00:02:31,707 --> 00:02:33,766 to deal with his mother's apparent problem. 47 00:02:33,876 --> 00:02:36,936 Okay, that seems as good a place as any to end the meeting. 48 00:02:40,416 --> 00:02:42,714 No, I'm not doing another intervention with her. 49 00:02:42,818 --> 00:02:44,877 Last time, I felt terrible for a week. 50 00:02:44,987 --> 00:02:48,184 One year earlier, the family had tried an intervention. 51 00:02:48,290 --> 00:02:51,191 - You're pouring a drink? What are you doing? - What if she's mad? 52 00:02:51,293 --> 00:02:54,194 - Good point. - Perhaps I'll have a little sip of something. 53 00:02:54,296 --> 00:02:56,526 Guys, what could she do to us? 54 00:02:57,833 --> 00:02:59,994 Do we have anything single malt? 55 00:03:00,102 --> 00:03:03,003 And although the intervention didn't work- 56 00:03:03,105 --> 00:03:06,302 - We think you have a "prollen." - You're a mesh. 57 00:03:06,408 --> 00:03:09,377 It turned into one of the Bluth family's better parties. 58 00:03:17,620 --> 00:03:20,020 Well, maybe an intervention is the wrong approach. 59 00:03:20,122 --> 00:03:22,522 What about rehab? She was just a mess at the meeting. 60 00:03:22,625 --> 00:03:25,389 Where were you, by the way?

She's elegant. She deserves it." 113 00:06:11,927 --> 00:06:14,157 I was gonna tell you at the office, but then I thought... 114 00:06:14,263 --> 00:06:18,700 "No. If I bring her around now, she might vomit on the overhead projector." 115 00:06:18,801 --> 00:06:22,828 I'm so embarrassed about that.
