1
00:00:00,373 --> 00:00:03,103
<i>Now the story of a wealthy family</i>
<i>who lost everything...</i>

2
00:00:03,210 --> 00:00:05,610
<i>and the one son who had no choice...</i>

3
00:00:05,712 --> 00:00:07,703
<i>but to keep them all together.</i>

4
00:00:13,220 --> 00:00:14,881
<i>It's</i> Arrested Development.

5
00:00:17,724 --> 00:00:19,624
<i>Michael Bluth had called a meeting...</i>

6
00:00:19,726 --> 00:00:21,626
<i>with the family's longtime attorney...</i>

7
00:00:21,728 --> 00:00:23,958
<i>to discuss his father's incarceration.</i>

8
00:00:24,064 --> 00:00:28,728
I am so sorry.
It was a client. Okay.

9
00:00:28,835 --> 00:00:31,326
<i>But he was finding it difficult</i>
<i>to get any answers.</i>

10
00:00:31,438 --> 00:00:34,407
- How long was I on the phone?
- Twenty-five minutes.

11
00:00:34,508 --> 00:00:37,671
With the cell phone charges,
I'm gonna round it out to about an hour...

12
00:00:37,777 --> 00:00:40,507
'cause it's easier to bill...
all right.

13
00:00:40,614 --> 00:00:43,913
- Anything else to go over?
- <i>We've got everything else to go over.</i>

14
00:00:44,017 --> 00:00:47,475
We haven't done anything
to get my dad out of jail.

15
00:00:47,587 --> 00:00:52,456
Okay. First of all...
What are you doing? Pilates?

16
00:00:52,559 --> 00:00:55,995
Because no 40-year-old woman
should look like that.

17
00:00:56,096 --> 00:00:58,656
Well, no 40-year-old woman
does look like that.

18
00:00:58,765 --> 00:01:01,632
<i>He was, however,</i>
<i>getting along with his sister...</i>

19
00:01:01,735 --> 00:01:03,930
<i>which was unwelcome news</i>
<i>to their mother...</i>

20
00:01:04,037 --> 00:01:06,403
<i>who feared this unity</i>
<i>might be used against her.</i>

21
00:01:06,506 --> 00:01:08,406
<i>I do have some big news.</i>

22
00:01:08,508 --> 00:01:10,703
It's going to cost you a little money...
20,000, something like that.

23
00:01:10,810 --> 00:01:15,543
<i>The courts have agreed</i>
<i>to let your father out of prison.</i>

24
00:01:15,649 --> 00:01:17,549
- This is a lawyer!
- He's a master!

25
00:01:17,651 --> 00:01:19,744
For the entire afternoon.

26
00:01:19,853 --> 00:01:22,344
What do you mean "afternoon"?
What afternoon?

27
00:01:22,455 --> 00:01:25,720
<i>The day before Christmas,</i>
<i>in time for the Living Classics Pageant...</i>

28
00:01:25,825 --> 00:01:28,020
because I know how important
that is to all of you.

29
00:01:28,128 --> 00:01:30,562
<i>The Living Classics Pageant,</i>
<i>an Orange County tradition...</i>

30
00:01:30,664 --> 00:01:34,225
<i>consists oflive representations</i>
<i>of classic works of art.</i>

31
00:01:34,334 --> 00:01:37,030
<i>The Bluth family has participated</i>
<i>not only as a patron...</i>

32
00:01:37,137 --> 00:01:40,300
<i>but as an integral part</i>
<i>of its most popular exhibit...</i>

33
00:01:40,407 --> 00:01:44,036
<i>Michelangelo's</i> The Creation of Adam.

34
00:01:44,144 --> 00:01:46,237
I don't really want to be Adam this year.

35
00:01:46,346 --> 00:01:48,678
Well, if you want to play Eve,
you got to get in line...

36
00:01:48,782 --> 00:01:51,273
behind, what, about five homos.

37
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,312
That was wrong.
I'm... I'm so sorry.

38
00:01:56,423 --> 00:01:58,755
<i>It's just that I have one</i>
<i>down at the office now...</i>

39
00:01:58,858 --> 00:02:00,951
and, I mean, it is every day.

40
00:02:01,061 --> 00:02:04,895
I would be happy to play Adam.
I'd prefer a speaking part...

41
00:02:04,998 --> 00:02:07,990
Please don't speak for the rest of the meeting.

42
00:02:08,101 --> 00:02:11,070
- Zing!
- No, no, seriously. I don't want to play Adam.

43
00:02:11,171 --> 00:02:13,605
Buster, every year we go through
this song and dance...

44
00:02:13,707 --> 00:02:18,269
and every year you say, "Thank you, Mama,
for making me play Adam."

45
00:02:18,378 --> 00:02:21,142
- You're doing it.
- <i>This concerned Buster...</i>

46
00:02:21,247 --> 00:02:23,579
<i>as he'd been secretly dating</i>
<i>his mother's best friend...</i>

47
00:02:23,683 --> 00:02:26,675
<i>and chief social rival,</i>
<i>Lucille Austero.</i>

48
00:02:26,786 --> 00:02:29,254
Can't we just stay here
and play poker again?

49
00:02:29,356 --> 00:02:31,790
You can bet your vertigo medicine
against my anxiety pills.

50
00:02:31,891 --> 00:02:35,452
No. Buster, for God's sake,
there is music to hear...

51
00:02:35,562 --> 00:02:38,087
places to go, envy to stir.

52
00:02:38,198 --> 00:02:40,996
Look, I'm tired of
keeping our love a secret.

53
00:02:41,101 --> 00:02:43,695
We are going out,
and that is that!

54
00:02:43,803 --> 00:02:46,704
- Oh.
- Oh, Buster. Okay, I'm okay.

55
00:02:46,806 --> 00:02:48,637
<i>I'm okay.</i>

56
00:02:48,742 --> 00:02:50,642
Okay. I'm gonna get out of your hair.

57
00:02:50,744 --> 00:02:52,769
- We'll talk about this money later in the week.
- Excuse me.

58
00:02:52,879 --> 00:02:55,905
We're not going to pay $20,000
to get my Dad out for one day.

59
00:02:56,016 --> 00:02:59,383
No. It's a bond.
It's all refundable, unlike my time.

60
00:02:59,486 --> 00:03:01,454
It's been a complete waste
of two hours, okay?

61
00:03:01,554 --> 00:03:03,454
We're just not going to do it,
and that's that.

62
00:03:03,556 --> 00:03:06,719
- Are you writing two hours?
- No, I'm taking notes on the case.

63
00:03:06,826 --> 00:03:08,726
- Let me just see what you just wrote.
- You're scaring me.

64
00:03:08,828 --> 00:03:13,356
just leave it alone! It is a gift from a client!
Ruining a good meeting.

65
00:03:13,466 --> 00:03:16,560
- Barry's very good.
- He's an idiot.

66
00:03:16,670 --> 00:03:18,570
Exactly. We're not trying
to get Dad out for a night.

67
00:03:18,672 --> 00:03:20,572
We're trying
to get him out for good.

68
00:03:20,674 --> 00:03:23,165
We're gonna get a new lawyer.
I actually know of one who's available.

69
00:03:23,276 --> 00:03:25,176
His name's WayneJarvis.
He's a top guy.

70
00:03:25,278 --> 00:03:27,337
<i>WayneJarvis had become famous...</i>

71
00:03:27,447 --> 00:03:29,347
<i>after an employment</i>
<i>discrimination suit...</i>

72
00:03:29,449 --> 00:03:32,384
<i>against the family's current attorney,</i>
<i>Barry Zuckerkorn.</i>

73
00:03:32,485 --> 00:03:35,716
It'll be a long time before Barry Zuckerkorn
calls anyone a homo again.

74
00:03:35,822 --> 00:03:38,484
You know, I am really happy
that you two are in agreement...

75
00:03:38,591 --> 00:03:40,718
but we're not getting rid of Barry.

76
00:03:40,827 --> 00:03:43,819
He's like family,
and you can't fire family.

77
00:03:43,930 --> 00:03:46,831
Yeah, I know.
Hey, Maeby.

78
00:03:46,933 --> 00:03:49,265
<i>Maeby, where have you been?</i>

79
00:03:49,369 --> 00:03:52,668
You left me at home.
You do remember you have a daughter, right?

80
00:03:52,772 --> 00:03:54,865
Uh, yes, of course we remember...

81
00:03:54,974 --> 00:03:56,874
and we were worried sick,
young lady.

82
00:03:56,976 --> 00:04:01,504
She's fine. Our daughter's all right,
everybody, so...

83
00:04:01,614 --> 00:04:04,606
- You said you didn't want her to come.
- I said I didn't want <i>you</i> to come.

84
00:04:04,718 --> 00:04:08,381
- Oh, that makes more sense.
- Now she's going to think
we're totally self-involved.

85
00:04:08,488 --> 00:04:11,685
I can fix this.
Buster's probably still in the lobby.

86
00:04:11,791 --> 00:04:14,692
Let me go see if I can't get him
to give me the part of Adam.

87
00:04:14,794 --> 00:04:17,524
And I'll see if I can get some money
from my mom.
- <i>Lupe!</i>

88
00:04:17,630 --> 00:04:19,530
There are some juice glasses
on the sofa table.

89
00:04:19,632 --> 00:04:21,623
<i>Mama, I'll help you clean up.</i>

90
00:04:21,735 --> 00:04:23,532
There are some salad plates
on the piano.

91
00:04:23,636 --> 00:04:26,503
Wow. What a party.
You make it seem so effortless.

92
00:04:26,606 --> 00:04:28,597
What do you need money for?
A divorce?

93
00:04:28,708 --> 00:04:31,404
No, Mom. Tobias and I
are doing fine, thank you.

94
00:04:31,511 --> 00:04:33,638
- It's my credit card debt.
- Forget it.

95
00:04:33,747 --> 00:04:35,544
Fine. I'll ask Michael.
He'll give it to me.

96
00:04:35,648 --> 00:04:39,049
Maybe if you get him drunk.
It's the only way he'll give money...

97
00:04:39,152 --> 00:04:42,053
to someone he calls
a "stay-in-bed mom."

98
00:04:42,155 --> 00:04:45,784
- He said that about me?
- I thought it was harsh.

99
00:04:45,892 --> 00:04:49,020
But, you know, he thinks
you're completely irresponsible.

100
00:04:49,129 --> 00:04:51,757
A stay-in-bed mom.

101
00:04:51,865 --> 00:04:55,130
Probably because you don't work,
and you're lazy.

102
00:04:55,235 --> 00:04:57,066
His words.

103
00:04:57,170 --> 00:04:59,570
- I can't believe him.
- <i>I know!</i>

104
00:04:59,672 --> 00:05:02,641
just when you were
getting along so well.

105
00:05:09,516 --> 00:05:11,507
They've got to be kidding me.

106
00:05:13,990 --> 00:05:16,300
<i>Michael's brother Gob, meanwhile...</i>

107
00:05:16,335 --> 00:05:20,396
<i>had missed the meeting that morning</i>
<i>after being delayed by his girlfriend Marta.</i>

108
00:05:20,504 --> 00:05:23,200
<i>?: Te quiero!</i>

109
00:05:23,307 --> 00:05:25,901
- English, please.
- I love you.

110
00:05:26,010 --> 00:05:28,103
Great. Now I'm late.

111
00:05:28,212 --> 00:05:30,544
<i>And while Gob</i>
<i>took his girlfriend for granted...</i>

112
00:05:30,648 --> 00:05:33,310
<i>Michael was learning Spanish</i>
<i>to get closer to her.</i>

113
00:05:33,417 --> 00:05:35,783
<i>That is not something I can bring to my boss.</i>

114
00:05:35,886 --> 00:05:40,255
<i>Unfortunately, the one tape</i>
<i>he could find was oflittle use to him.</i>

115
00:05:40,357 --> 00:05:42,257
<i>Are you going</i>
<i>to the complimentary breakfast?</i>

116
00:05:42,359 --> 00:05:44,657
That'll get her hot.

117
00:05:44,762 --> 00:05:47,731
Well, if it isn't the boy
who lives under the stairs.

118
00:05:47,832 --> 00:05:49,732
- Hey, Gob.
- What are you doing, learning Spanish?

119
00:05:49,834 --> 00:05:54,464
Nope. It's, uh... It's something for work,
so, yes, uh, yeah.

120
00:05:59,410 --> 00:06:00,945
<i>Meanwhile, Buster</i>
<i>was trying to get George Michael...</i>

121

<i>was trying to get George Michael...</i>

<i>to take his place as Adam.</i>

123

I don't know, Uncle Buster.

124
00:06:07,418 --> 00:06:09,818
- Well, you don't have the "frontspiece" yet.
- "Frontspiece"?

125
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:14,584
Look, I don't want to go through a whole song
and dance with you. You're going to love it.

126
00:06:14,692 --> 00:06:18,651
You just can't do anything that violates
the original painting, like giggling or itching.

127
00:06:18,762 --> 00:06:22,459
They do allow some nervous crying,
but you can tell they don't like it.

128

<i>And Maeby was teaching</i>
<i>her parents a lesson for forgetting her</i>...

<i>when she spotted George Michael.</i>

It's Michael Bluth for Barry.

135
00:06:45,089 --> 00:06:48,820
- I'm not here.
- Barry's not here. Can I give her a message?

136
00:06:48,926 --> 00:06:51,156
Tell her she needs to whisper
a little softer next time...

- You're the jerk.
- Did I just wake you up?
I didn't know you were home.

00:07:16,187 --> 00:07:18,951
<i>but ended up taking</i>
<i>a two-hour angry nap.</i>

147
00:07:19,056 --> 00:07:21,217
Yeah, this suitcase
should be big enough.

148
00:07:21,325 --> 00:07:24,488
Where is all this coming from?
I thought we were getting along.

149
00:07:24,595 --> 00:07:27,359
Yeah, so did I. And now I hear
you're telling our mother...

150
00:07:27,464 --> 00:07:30,991
that I'm completely irresponsible
and a stay-in-bed mom.

151
00:07:31,101 --> 00:07:33,001
That doesn't even sound like me.

152
00:07:33,103 --> 00:07:36,163
That sounds like Mom
or Bruce Vilanch.

153
00:07:36,273 --> 00:07:38,571
- Could be Bruce Vilanch.
- Then why would she say it?

154
00:07:38,676 --> 00:07:41,201
- Because we're getting along.
- Because we're friends again.

155
00:07:41,312 --> 00:07:43,837
You gotta remember Mom
typically has nothing in her system...

156
00:07:43,948 --> 00:07:45,939
except a bottle of vodka
and an estrogen pill.

157
00:07:46,050 --> 00:07:48,245
Speaking of which...

158
00:07:48,352 --> 00:07:50,684
<i>Michael and Lindsay proceeded to drink...</i>

159
00:07:50,788 --> 00:07:52,688
<i>and air their grievances</i>
<i>about their mother.</i>

160
00:07:52,790 --> 00:07:56,487
She's always trying to get me to admit
that my marriage isn't working.

161
00:07:56,594 --> 00:07:59,358
- And how's it going with you and Tobias?
- It's not working.

162
00:07:59,463 --> 00:08:02,694
And that's why I wanted her help
with my credit card debt.

163
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,530
I'm trying to take at least some of
the pressure off this marriage.

164
00:08:05,636 --> 00:08:09,037
And if anything, it's worse
now that we're sharing a bedroom.

165
00:08:09,139 --> 00:08:11,937
You guys were not
sharing a bedroom before?

166
00:08:12,042 --> 00:08:14,374
Well, the cutoffs
aren't exactly a turn-on.

167
00:08:14,478 --> 00:08:18,744
- What's the deal with the cutoffs?
- You've got to promise not to tell anyone this.

168
00:08:18,849 --> 00:08:22,546
- Okay.
- He's a never-nude.

169
00:08:22,653 --> 00:08:24,985
Is that exactly what it sounds like?

170
00:08:25,089 --> 00:08:27,421
<i>Tobias suffered</i>
<i>a rare psychological affliction...</i>

171
00:08:27,524 --> 00:08:30,118
<i>of never being able</i>
<i>to be completely naked.</i>

172
00:08:30,227 --> 00:08:33,162
Excuse me.
Do these effectively hide my thunder?

173
00:08:33,264 --> 00:08:37,200
Oh, I'm sorry. No, I need you to be
completely undressed.

174
00:08:37,301 --> 00:08:40,327
I am completely undressed.

175
00:08:40,437 --> 00:08:43,235
- I thought he just liked cutoffs.
- Me too.

176
00:08:43,340 --> 00:08:45,740
What about you?
What's going on with your love life?

177
00:08:45,843 --> 00:08:47,743
<i>Have you even met anyone</i>
<i>since your wife?</i>

178
00:08:47,845 --> 00:08:50,746
That is the one subject
I am not eager to talk about, Lindsay.

179
00:08:50,848 --> 00:08:53,112
I love Marta.

180
00:08:54,952 --> 00:08:57,785
- Mom's housekeeper?
- Gob's girlfriend.

181
00:08:57,888 --> 00:09:00,356
- Oh, my God.
- Yeah.

182
00:09:00,457 --> 00:09:04,291
Listen. You're a great guy,
and if she doesn't see that...

183
00:09:04,395 --> 00:09:07,523
- then someone else will.
- You know what else, Lindsay? You're great.

184
00:09:07,631 --> 00:09:11,692
And I'm gonna move some money around
if it's gonna help you get out of debt.

185
00:09:11,802 --> 00:09:13,201
- No, Michael.
- Yeah.

186
00:09:13,304 --> 00:09:16,865
The hell with Mom. And here.
Mom's never gonna get between us again.

187
00:09:18,042 --> 00:09:20,670
<i>The next day, Buster,</i>
<i>having pawned off playing Adam...</i>

188
00:09:20,778 --> 00:09:23,747
<i>went to Lucille 2 to ask her out</i>
<i>for Christmas Eve.</i>

189
00:09:23,847 --> 00:09:27,943
That is terrific 'cause I got
two tickets to the pageant!

190
00:09:28,052 --> 00:09:31,783
My... My mother's going to be there.

191
00:09:31,889 --> 00:09:33,789
<i>And George Michael was trying to pass...</i>

192
00:09:33,891 --> 00:09:36,223
- <i>as a more muscular boy than he actually was.</i>
- One hundred.

193
00:09:36,327 --> 00:09:38,295
One hundred?
I had you at 10.

194
00:09:38,395 --> 00:09:41,990
I did some earlier in the day. It's a running total.
So what's with the suitcase?

195
00:09:42,099 --> 00:09:44,795
It's a little test
to get my parents to notice me.

196
00:09:44,902 --> 00:09:46,802
You ever get the feeling
like no one even sees you?

197
00:09:46,904 --> 00:09:51,238
I've got a really good body, so... no.

198
00:09:51,342 --> 00:09:53,469
Hey, gang. What you doing?

199
00:09:53,577 --> 00:09:55,807
- Just packing up. Packing it on up.
- Uh-huh.

200
00:09:55,913 --> 00:09:58,143
Listen, can I talk to you alone
for a moment?

201
00:09:58,248 --> 00:10:01,684
- <i>I'll leave you two alone here.</i>
- Oh, no, George Michael, I meant you.

202
00:10:01,785 --> 00:10:04,345
Maeby, can we have the room?

203
00:10:08,092 --> 00:10:12,051
So, as you know, I was hoping
to play Adam in this thing...

204
00:10:12,162 --> 00:10:16,189
and I want you to know
that I am not threatened.

205
00:10:16,300 --> 00:10:18,564
You know, I'd be happy
to let you play Adam.

206
00:10:18,669 --> 00:10:20,762
Give me the suit.
Give me the suit.

207
00:10:20,871 --> 00:10:24,534
I'm actually wearing it right now,
and I can't tell you why.

208
00:10:24,641 --> 00:10:26,541
You're wearing it right now?

209
00:10:26,643 --> 00:10:29,373
I have to wear it all the time.
You'd never understand.

210
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,847
Oh, please.
I'll never under...

211
00:10:32,950 --> 00:10:36,716
I'll never understand...
that you can never be nude?

212
00:10:42,993 --> 00:10:46,952
I understand more than
you'll <i>never</i> know.

213
00:10:53,470 --> 00:10:55,370
Yikes.

214
00:10:55,472 --> 00:10:57,906
<i>Michael finally arranged</i>
<i>a meeting with attorney WayneJarvis.</i>

215
00:10:58,008 --> 00:10:59,908
Looking for a more professional approach
to our representation.

216
00:11:00,010 --> 00:11:01,307
Well, I'm a professional.

217
00:11:01,412 --> 00:11:04,404
- I'm serious, and I'm a professional.
- That's fantastic.

218
00:11:04,515 --> 00:11:06,949
- So how long have you been practicing...
- I also don't like small talk.

219
00:11:07,050 --> 00:11:10,383
I find that unprofessional.
Why should I be billing you for small talk...

220
00:11:10,487 --> 00:11:12,387
when I'm enjoying it
as much as you are?

221
00:11:12,489 --> 00:11:15,549
Then this must be a freebie
'cause I'm having a ball.

222
00:11:15,659 --> 00:11:18,059
When you're ready
to get serious, give me a call.

223
00:11:18,162 --> 00:11:22,622
No, no! No, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm serious. I'm ready.

224
00:11:22,733 --> 00:11:26,601
Good. If you retain my services,
I will get your father out of jail...

225
00:11:26,703 --> 00:11:28,603
and we will be countersuing
before the end of the year.

226
00:11:28,705 --> 00:11:31,401
We're gonna get this company's name
back to where it started.

227
00:11:31,508 --> 00:11:34,068
- Or hopefully higher.
- I didn't say that. Don't hold me to that.

228
00:11:34,178 --> 00:11:37,978
I won't, and I appreciate that
to a wonderful degree.

229
00:11:38,081 --> 00:11:40,481
My mother is on her way up here...

230
00:11:40,584 --> 00:11:44,281
and she's resistant
to the idea of hiring a new attorney.

231
00:11:44,388 --> 00:11:46,856
If she even sees you,
she probably won't come in the room.

232
00:11:46,957 --> 00:11:49,482
I shall duck behind the couch.

233
00:11:49,593 --> 00:11:52,027
What a pro.

234
00:11:53,330 --> 00:11:54,888
- Michael.
- Hi.

235
00:11:54,998 --> 00:11:58,229
I need to get the money
to get your father out for the pageant.

236
00:11:58,335 --> 00:12:01,771
Actually, that's not why
I called you here today, and I'm not doing that.

237
00:12:01,872 --> 00:12:04,466
I gave that money to Lindsay
to pay off her credit card debt.

238
00:12:04,575 --> 00:12:08,033
- What'd she do, get you drunk?
- No, we just, uh, well...

239
00:12:08,145 --> 00:12:10,807
We did drink a little bit.
How'd you know that?

240
00:12:10,914 --> 00:12:12,814
Because that's what
she said she'd do.

241
00:12:12,916 --> 00:12:16,044
I said you wouldn't give her the money,
and she said, "He will if I get him drunk."

242
00:12:16,153 --> 00:12:18,451
Probably because she thinks
you're a cheap bastard.

243
00:12:18,555 --> 00:12:20,546
Oh. Her words.

244
00:12:20,657 --> 00:12:22,625
She set me up?

245
00:12:22,726 --> 00:12:27,459
All that stuff about her marital troubles
and Tobias being a never-nude?

246
00:12:27,564 --> 00:12:31,466
A never-nude?
I thought he just liked cutoffs.

247
00:12:31,568 --> 00:12:33,627
How do you treat somebody
in your own family like that...

248
00:12:33,737 --> 00:12:38,106
lying and deceiving and saying anything
just to get your own way?

249
00:12:38,208 --> 00:12:40,972
- So what did you want to see me about?
- Hmm?

250
00:12:41,078 --> 00:12:44,639
Oh, um, there's a big bowl
of candy in my office.

251
00:12:44,748 --> 00:12:47,478
- Why don't you go eat it?
- <i>WayneJarvis, attorney at law.</i>

252
00:12:47,584 --> 00:12:51,918
I have a responsibility to tell you
that there is no candy in this office.

253
00:12:52,022 --> 00:12:54,513
Lindsay.

254
00:12:57,541 --> 00:13:00,374
- What are you doing here?
- I had to get away from Marta.

255
00:13:00,477 --> 00:13:05,312
<i>If I have to smell another meal of fish,</i>
<i>rice and mango, I'm gonna kill somebody.</i>

256
00:13:05,415 --> 00:13:08,976
- Now Michael's learning Spanish.
What's up with that?
- Oh, who knows?

257
00:13:09,086 --> 00:13:10,986
He won't get your father
out of jail for a night.

258
00:13:11,088 --> 00:13:13,648
- He's bringing in a new attorney.
- <i>New attorney?</i>

259
00:13:13,757 --> 00:13:16,692
And he's learning Spanish?

260
00:13:16,793 --> 00:13:18,784
He's hiding something.

261
00:13:18,895 --> 00:13:21,523
And I intend to find out what it is.

262
00:13:21,631 --> 00:13:25,226
Do yourself a favor.
Get him drunk.

263
00:13:31,475 --> 00:13:33,500
Barry.

264
00:13:34,845 --> 00:13:37,279
I see you're getting closer
to our attorney.

265
00:13:37,381 --> 00:13:41,010
<i>Well, I just want you to know</i>
<i>that I won't be needing your help after all.</i>

266
00:13:41,118 --> 00:13:45,817
My brother Michael came through
as he always does and as you never do.

267
00:13:45,922 --> 00:13:49,881
Whatever it takes to get your relationship
with that never-nude back on track.

268
00:13:51,995 --> 00:13:54,361
- Michael told you that?
- He couldn't wait to.

269
00:13:54,464 --> 00:13:56,830
<i>And later,</i>
<i>while Michael was meeting with Wayne</i>...

270
00:13:56,933 --> 00:14:00,266
My thing with Tobias was a secret
like you stealing your brother's girlfriend!

271
00:14:00,370 --> 00:14:03,066
- I open up to you, and you run and tell Mommy!
- Excuse me.

272
00:14:03,173 --> 00:14:05,038
Outside, please.
Thank you. Pardon us.

273
00:14:05,142 --> 00:14:08,805
Like it all wasn't just lies to get me to pay
that debt. Isn't that why you got me drunk?

274
00:14:08,912 --> 00:14:11,039
- I <i>got</i> you drunk.
- Mom told me about your little plan.

275
00:14:11,148 --> 00:14:14,413
- What plan? I had a great time last night!
- So did I!

276
00:14:14,518 --> 00:14:16,884
- Then why are we yelling at each other?
- Mom.

277
00:14:16,987 --> 00:14:20,388
- Unbelievable.
- She did it again.

278
00:14:20,490 --> 00:14:23,391
- All right. We've got to teach her a lesson.
- Hmm.

279
00:14:24,728 --> 00:14:28,630
<i>Excuse me, Wayne, my sister and I were</i>
<i>outside having a business discussion...</i>

280
00:14:28,732 --> 00:14:31,257
and we were wondering
if there's some sort of legal way...

281
00:14:31,368 --> 00:14:34,098
that we can humiliate our mother.

282
00:14:34,204 --> 00:14:36,570
Something shaming, something public.

283
00:14:36,673 --> 00:14:39,836
I've used one adjective to describe myself.
What is it?

284
00:14:39,943 --> 00:14:41,911
Professional.

285
00:14:48,685 --> 00:14:50,585
So how are we going to screw Mom?

286
00:14:50,687 --> 00:14:52,348
- Maybe we can get Barry to help.
- <i>Forget it.</i>

287
00:14:52,456 --> 00:14:55,516
I think I was right about them all along.
You know Barry's taking Mom to the pageant?

288
00:14:55,625 --> 00:14:57,354
- On a date?
- Yeah.

289
00:14:57,461 --> 00:15:02,831
Ugh! If Dad could see her
on a date with Barry, he'd go crazy.

290
00:15:02,933 --> 00:15:05,629
<i>Which would allow us to hire Wayne.</i>

291
00:15:07,504 --> 00:15:10,530
How do you feel about staying in debt
just a little bit longer?

292
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:14,041
<i>So they decided to spend</i>
<i>the money Michael had promised Lindsay...</i>

293
00:15:14,144 --> 00:15:18,171
<i>to get their father out for the pageant,</i>
<i>where he'd catch his wife with Barry.</i>

294
00:15:18,281 --> 00:15:21,842
<i>Maeby, too, continued to try</i>
<i>to teach her parents a lesson.</i>

295
00:15:21,952 --> 00:15:24,512
Okay, so I printed the fake airline ticket
from my computer.

296
00:15:24,621 --> 00:15:28,113
If my parents miss this,
I really might go to South America.

297
00:15:28,225 --> 00:15:30,785
- That says "Portugal."
- That's right.

298
00:15:30,894 --> 00:15:35,024
<i>Maeby's parents didn't find the ticket,</i>
<i>but Gob did</i>...

299
00:15:35,131 --> 00:15:37,031
"Portugal."

300
00:15:37,133 --> 00:15:39,465
<i>which confirmed his suspicions.</i>

301
00:15:39,569 --> 00:15:42,163
Gonna live it up down old
South America way, huh, Mikey?

302
00:15:42,272 --> 00:15:45,571
<i>And Buster finally gave in</i>
<i>to Lucille 2's wishes.</i>

303
00:15:45,675 --> 00:15:49,076
You ready to show me off
before God and the whole world?

304
00:15:49,179 --> 00:15:51,374
It's not my dad's reaction
I'm worried about.

305
00:15:51,481 --> 00:15:55,577
<i>And George Michael finally saw the painting</i>
<i>he was going to be re-creating.</i>

306
00:15:59,456 --> 00:16:02,983
<i>And then what "frontspiece"meant.</i>

307
00:16:08,999 --> 00:16:13,936
<i>George Sr. got his 24 hours of freedom</i>
<i>as the pageant finally began.</i>

308
00:16:14,037 --> 00:16:17,768
You know, I saw you do this when I was a kid.
I was so impressed.

309
00:16:17,874 --> 00:16:21,810
You know, you were
so still and godlike.

310
00:16:21,912 --> 00:16:24,278
It was at that moment
that I knew I would be a dancer.

311
00:16:25,849 --> 00:16:27,749
Glad I could make a difference.

312
00:16:27,851 --> 00:16:30,513
<i>Michael and Lindsay searched the crowd</i>
<i>for their mother and Barry...</i>

313
00:16:30,620 --> 00:16:34,078
<i>so they could revel in the public shaming</i>
<i>they had engineered.</i>

314
00:16:34,190 --> 00:16:38,126
- Mom, what the hell are you doing?
- <i>But instead they found her with Wayne.</i>

315
00:16:38,228 --> 00:16:40,128
I don't have to answer that.

316
00:16:40,230 --> 00:16:42,391
I don't know which one of you
I'm more disappointed in.

317
00:16:42,499 --> 00:16:44,524
No, it's Wayne. Wayne...

318
00:16:44,634 --> 00:16:47,262
- I have needs. I am a man!
- Hey, watch...

319
00:16:47,370 --> 00:16:50,134
What's the difference?
Your father doesn't care about me.

320
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,731
Barry tells me he's not even trying
to get out of prison.

321
00:16:52,842 --> 00:16:55,606
- Mom, he's here. Dad's here.
- He's here?

322
00:16:55,712 --> 00:16:58,044
- Yeah, he's here.
- Why did you do this?

323
00:16:58,148 --> 00:17:00,480
- We were trying to teach you a lesson.
- <i>You idiots!</i>

324
00:17:00,584 --> 00:17:03,712
- If he sees me with Wayne...
- We'll be stuck with Barry.

325
00:17:03,820 --> 00:17:06,812
I shall duck behind
that little garbage car.

326
00:17:08,258 --> 00:17:10,158
Guy's a pro.

327
00:17:10,260 --> 00:17:12,160
<i>And now, ladies and gentlemen...</i>

328
00:17:12,262 --> 00:17:14,992
<i>Michelangelo's</i>
The Creation of Adam.

329
00:17:15,098 --> 00:17:18,295
<i>And George Michael made his debut</i>...

330
00:17:18,401 --> 00:17:20,801
Hey, that's my... Yikes.

331
00:17:20,904 --> 00:17:22,838
<i>breaking the pageant's cardinal rule.</i>

332
00:17:22,939 --> 00:17:24,566
How dare he!

333
00:17:24,674 --> 00:17:27,643
Oh, stop booing!
There's nothing wrong with it.

334
00:17:27,744 --> 00:17:31,737
There are dozens of us. Dozens!

335
00:17:31,848 --> 00:17:33,941
<i>Buster arrived with Lucille Austero...</i>

336
00:17:34,050 --> 00:17:37,850
<i>and naturally assumed the yells of disgust</i>
<i>were directed toward him.</i>

337
00:17:37,954 --> 00:17:40,081
- What is wrong with you?
- What's wrong with you?

338
00:17:40,190 --> 00:17:42,351
Buster?

339
00:17:42,459 --> 00:17:44,450
Oh, God! I'm sorry.

340
00:17:44,561 --> 00:17:47,928
I'm sorry, Lucille.
Yeah. Lucille.

341
00:17:48,031 --> 00:17:49,999
Ma, I'm sorry!

342
00:17:50,100 --> 00:17:54,628
Man! That old lady has really
done a number on you, hasn't she?

343
00:17:55,939 --> 00:17:59,204
<i>But George Michael wasn't</i>
<i>the only problem with the painting.</i>

344
00:17:59,309 --> 00:18:01,937
- Where is God?
- There is no God!

345
00:18:05,215 --> 00:18:07,115
There goes my credit card payment.

346
00:18:07,217 --> 00:18:09,481
Dad! Dad!

347
00:18:09,586 --> 00:18:11,554
Hey! Dad!

348
00:18:13,223 --> 00:18:15,623
- Excuse me.
- Dad!

349
00:18:15,725 --> 00:18:19,320
- Hey, Dad, get back here!
- No! I'm not going back!

350
00:18:19,429 --> 00:18:21,329
Dad, come here!

351
00:18:21,431 --> 00:18:25,390
- Dad!
- Michael, I'm onto you.

352
00:18:25,502 --> 00:18:28,164
The Spanish lessons, the lawyer.

353
00:18:28,271 --> 00:18:32,071
- If you're heading for Portugal, it's due south!
- What? No, it isn't.

354
00:18:32,175 --> 00:18:34,837
Dad, you're not gonna outrun me
in that dress.

355
00:18:34,944 --> 00:18:38,903
- Let go! For God's sakes,
I'm not even wearing a jock.
- Dad, are you going too?

356
00:18:42,419 --> 00:18:45,183
No one is going to Portugal, you idiot!

357
00:18:45,288 --> 00:18:48,553
Lindsay and I broke Dad out of jail for a day
to catch Mom on a date.

358
00:18:48,658 --> 00:18:51,354
Your mother is on a date? Oh.

359
00:18:51,461 --> 00:18:52,723
Dad!

360
00:18:52,829 --> 00:18:56,162
Oh, oh.

361
00:18:56,266 --> 00:18:58,894
- <i>Dad?</i>
- <i>And so, many in the Bluth family...</i>

362
00:18:59,002 --> 00:19:01,937
<i>gathered together</i>
<i>for Christmas Eve... at prison.</i>

363
00:19:02,038 --> 00:19:04,666
- Hey, where'd your muscle suit go?
- Wait. You knew?

364
00:19:04,774 --> 00:19:06,173
Yeah.

365
00:19:06,276 --> 00:19:08,210
I took it off.

366
00:19:11,181 --> 00:19:13,081
You did?

367
00:19:15,885 --> 00:19:19,321
You have made some
tremendous strides today.

368
00:19:20,890 --> 00:19:23,017
Ever get the feeling
like you don't even matter?

369
00:19:23,126 --> 00:19:25,390
Only when I'm around my children.

370
00:19:25,495 --> 00:19:29,363
You reach a certain age, and you have
to practically scream to get noticed.

371
00:19:29,466 --> 00:19:33,368
They turn you into a monster,
and then they call you one.

372
00:19:33,470 --> 00:19:35,870
I don't think you're a monster.

373
00:19:35,972 --> 00:19:37,872
And I think you're a lovely girl.

374
00:19:37,974 --> 00:19:40,238
You know what?

375
00:19:40,343 --> 00:19:42,743
I think you and I
ought to spend more time together.

376
00:19:42,846 --> 00:19:44,973
Yeah.

377
00:19:46,216 --> 00:19:49,777
- That'll drive them crazy.
- Exactly.

378
00:19:49,886 --> 00:19:51,786
<i>And Michael was forced to, once again...</i>

379
00:19:51,888 --> 00:19:54,356
<i>call in the counsel of Barry Zuckerkorn.</i>

380
00:19:54,457 --> 00:19:56,618
Thank you. Thank you
for coming down on Christmas Eve.

381
00:19:56,726 --> 00:20:00,059
Oh, it's like any other day,
except that I bill double.

382
00:20:00,163 --> 00:20:02,290
<i>So, they're not filing charges.</i>

383
00:20:02,398 --> 00:20:06,960
I got them to call your flee from justice
"religious expression."

384
00:20:07,070 --> 00:20:09,834
- This is a lawyer.
- Yeah, he's... he's very good.

385
00:20:09,939 --> 00:20:13,067
You're gonna have to forfeit that bond.
I was way off about that.

386
00:20:13,176 --> 00:20:15,303
Thanks again, Mikey.

387
00:20:17,947 --> 00:20:20,415
- Can I ask you a question?
- Sure.

388
00:20:20,517 --> 00:20:23,543
Are all the guys in here, you know...

389
00:20:23,653 --> 00:20:26,451
Oh, no, no, no.
Not all of them.

390
00:20:26,556 --> 00:20:29,923
Yeah. It's never the ones you hope.

391
00:20:31,995 --> 00:20:34,657
- Hope?
- Think.

392
00:20:34,764 --> 00:20:38,427
- How'd it go?
- <i>Well, the bad news is you're in debt again...</i>

393
00:20:38,535 --> 00:20:41,129
and we never busted Mom,
and we're stuck with Barry.

394
00:20:41,237 --> 00:20:45,435
The good news is we've been asked
never to participate in the pageant again.

395
00:20:46,543 --> 00:20:49,535
- Well, at least we're still pals, huh?
- Yeah.

396
00:20:50,947 --> 00:20:54,280
That's not really doing it for me this time.

397
00:20:54,384 --> 00:20:56,284
Yeah.
