1. Now the story of a wealthy family
who lost everything...Copy !req
2. and the one son
who had no choice...Copy !req
3. but to keep them all together.Copy !req
4. It's Arrested Development.Copy !req
5. Another setback for the once
prominent Bluth family...Copy !req
6. as their frozen banana stand...Copy !req
7. a Newport Beach landmark
burns to the ground.Copy !req
8. A delicious whodunit after this.Copy !req
9. A week before the fire...Copy !req
10. Michael Bluth was trying
to save the Bluth Company...Copy !req
11. - but his father was making it difficult.
- I need the flight records, Dad.Copy !req
12. I'm trying to find some money
for the family.Copy !req
13. There's always money in the banana stand.Copy !req
14. I am having a love affair with this ice
cream sandwich. Want some?Copy !req
15. - You wanna take a bite? Take a bite.
- Please. Please.Copy !req
16. - Come on. Take a bite. Bite.
- The S.E.C. has locked up our funds.Copy !req
17. - These guys aren't messing around.
- No touching!Copy !req
18. So I need you to tell me.
Were you taking vacations in the jet?Copy !req
19. Is that what you're hiding from me?Copy !req
20. I haven't had a vacation in years.
This is my vacation.Copy !req
21. I'm exercising.
I'm sleeping well.Copy !req
22. - You're doing time.
- I'm doing the time of my life!Copy !req
23. - What's up, pumpkin?
- Hey. T-Bone!Copy !req
24. - What's up?
- Yeah. T-Bone's my roommate.Copy !req
25. - Oh.
- He's a flamer.Copy !req
26. - T's checking out today.
- Yeah.Copy !req
27. Well, I guess every vacation's
gotta come to an end.Copy !req
28. You just made a fool out of yourself
in front ofT-Bone.Copy !req
29. Anyway, I want you to give him
a job at the company. Sales.Copy !req
30. - I'm not gonna do that.
- Why not?Copy !req
31. - Because we don't have any money.
- Because he's a flamer?Copy !req
32. - I told you that in confidence.
- You don't seem to understand
I'm running this company now...Copy !req
33. and I need the flight records,
and I'm gonna get them...Copy !req
34. - with or without your help.
- All right.Copy !req
35. No touching!Copy !req
36. I got something we can try, all right?
It's a little risky.Copy !req
37. - Please.
- Open up.Copy !req
38. What do you mean about...Copy !req
39. While George Sr. was losing a roommate...Copy !req
40. George Michael was having
a hard time adjusting to his new one.Copy !req
41. Get up. Get up.
Get up. Get up.Copy !req
42. - Get up. Get up. Get up. Get up.
- I'm up!Copy !req
43. Okay, we are just about
ass to ankles back here, Maeby.Copy !req
44. Do you wanna hop on
your cousin's lap there, please?Copy !req
45. Whoa, bumpy road ahead.Copy !req
46. So, he addressed his problem head-on.Copy !req
47. Dad, I wanna work more hours
at the banana stand.Copy !req
48. Wow. Huh.
Well, that's great.Copy !req
49. You know, I used to be
just like you when I was a kid.Copy !req
50. I used to love it there.
- It's gonna be
our best summer ever, Mikey!Copy !req
51. Well, I'll tell you what.
I'm gonna give you a promotion.Copy !req
52. Welcome aboard, Mr. Manager.Copy !req
53. Wow! I'm Mr. Manager!Copy !req
54. Well, manager.
We just say "manager."Copy !req
55. And you can hire an employee
if you need one.Copy !req
56. - Do you think I need one?
- Don't look at me, Mr. Manager.Copy !req
57. Right. It's up to me now.
I'm Mr. Manager.Copy !req
58. - Manager. We just say...
- I know, but you just...Copy !req
59. It doesn't matter who.Copy !req
60. I don't know what I expected.Copy !req
61. What's going on? This is exactly where the two
of you were when I left this morning.Copy !req
62. - Is nobody gonna even try to get a job?
- I have a job, Michael.Copy !req
63. - It's called supporting my husband.
- You haven't been shopping.Copy !req
64. The only thing I found in the freezer
was a dead dove in a bag.Copy !req
65. You didn't eat that, did you? 'Cause I've
only got a couple days left to return it.Copy !req
66. Died right in the middle
of a show.Copy !req
67. - Do you want a cage for that?
- No. I'm a magician.Copy !req
68. What is your return policy,
by the way?Copy !req
69. Not that I have to defend myself, but
for your information, I did go shopping.Copy !req
70. You spent $68
on hair conditioner?Copy !req
71. A small price to pay
for self-esteem, Michael.Copy !req
72. Or are you still jealous that you lost Best Hair
to me in high school and got Dorkiest?Copy !req
73. Lindsay's achievements in high school...Copy !req
74. had always overshadowed Michael's.Copy !req
75. I agree with Michael. It's important
not to tie your self-esteem...Copy !req
76. into how you look or
what people think of you.Copy !req
77. I mean, look at me.
I'm an actor.Copy !req
78. An actor,
for crying out loud!Copy !req
79. You know how much rejection
I face every day?Copy !req
80. But in this business of show...Copy !req
81. you have to have the heart
of an angel...Copy !req
82. and the hide of an elephant.Copy !req
83. But you've never actually
had an audition.Copy !req
84. Well...Copy !req
85. excuse me!Copy !req
86. Excuse me.Copy !req
87. Some really great spousal support.
You know something, Lindsay?Copy !req
88. You might wanna start thinking about the
example you're setting for your daughter...Copy !req
89. unless you want her
to end up just like you.Copy !req
90. Yeah. Shoot me
when that happens.Copy !req
91. Is there a carbon monoxide leak
in this house?Copy !req
92. George Michael, you're taking
your cousin to work today.Copy !req
93. That's your new employee. I do not want my niece
to end up just like everyone in this family.Copy !req
94. Uh-uh. You're not telling my daughter
what to do. She's a child!Copy !req
95. No, I'm not. I can work.Copy !req
96. I don't know about this. I mean,
it can get pretty hairy in there.Copy !req
97. Fine. Do what you want.Copy !req
98. If I know my daughter,
that stand won't be there in a week.Copy !req
99. You stay on top of her, buddy.Copy !req
100. Do not be afraid
to ride her. Hard.Copy !req
101. George Michael's attempt
to distance himself...Copy !req
102. from his cousin proved unsuccessful.Copy !req
103. I can't tell you how many health codes
you're violating right now.Copy !req
104. I can't believe
I volunteered for this.Copy !req
105. This is my stupidest
rebellion ever.Copy !req
106. Hey, do you wanna
go play Skee-Ball?Copy !req
107. Wait... This is the cash drawer.Copy !req
108. My dad's gonna come by
at the end of the weekend...Copy !req
109. and the number of bananas has to match
the amount of money in here.Copy !req
110. - Oh, so it all has to even out?
- Exactly.Copy !req
111. Easy. Banana.Copy !req
112. Buck.Copy !req
113. Banana. Take a buck.Copy !req
114. And Michael went to his mother
for the flight records...Copy !req
115. his father wouldn't give him.Copy !req
116. Then why don't you marry
an ice cream sandwich?Copy !req
117. - I gotta go.
- Who was that? Was that Dad?Copy !req
118. - That was Gob.
- Uh-huh.Copy !req
119. - So, Mom, I'm trying to find...
- I don't know where they are.Copy !req
120. these flight records.Copy !req
121. You know, it's really more
believable if you let me finish.Copy !req
122. Why am I the only one that seems to
get how much trouble this family is in?Copy !req
123. Oh, I get it, Michael.
I get it.Copy !req
124. But how should I know where the records
are kept? Your father's in charge of all that.Copy !req
125. No, I'm in charge of all of that.Copy !req
126. And I think that you do know
where they are.Copy !req
127. Oh, it's probably all in
a storage unit somewhere.Copy !req
128. Where is the storage unit?Copy !req
129. - I don't remember.
- Try.Copy !req
130. Something with "Dale."
I don't know. Brookfeather.Copy !req
131. Raintree. It's hot.
It's very hot there.Copy !req
132. - I've never been. Get a warrant!
- Don't think I won't.Copy !req
133. Mother... Mother, I care
about this family.Copy !req
134. And I do, too, my darling.Copy !req
135. That's why I'm worried about Gob. I was
on the phone with him this morning.Copy !req
136. You mean just now, right?
When I came in?Copy !req
137. Yes, just now, when you came in.
And he's upset. He's very upset.Copy !req
138. You haven't included him in the business at all.Copy !req
139. He's your older brother.
You could find a little job for him.Copy !req
140. - Make him feel special.
- But he's not special, Mother.Copy !req
141. No.Copy !req
142. But he loves you.
We all love you.Copy !req
143. - Where's the storage unit?
- It's with your warrant.Copy !req
144. Luz, that coat cost
more than your house!Copy !req
145. Oh, that's how we joke.
She doesn't even have a house.Copy !req
146. The next day, Tobias looked for work.Copy !req
147. Hmm. Actor Pull.Copy !req
148. Ooh.Copy !req
149. Oh, look at all these parts!Copy !req
150. Tobias, nice to see you off the couch.Copy !req
151. I was looking for work, and I blew it, Michael.Copy !req
152. I guess you've already
seen that, huh?Copy !req
153. Yes, I have.
Oh, right. This one.Copy !req
154. Yeah, I'll call them again,
I guess.Copy !req
155. I'll give them one more shot.Copy !req
156. And that's when Michael
figured out how to get his mother...Copy !req
157. to lead him to the storage unit
where the flight records were kept.Copy !req
158. - Hello.
- Hey, Mom, it's Michael. Listen.Copy !req
159. Before I forget,
I talked to the I.R. S...Copy !req
160. and they wanna come by
your apartment today...Copy !req
161. to see if you charged any
big-ticket stuff to the company.Copy !req
162. Furs or...Copy !req
163. I don't know.
just a heads-up.Copy !req
164. Oh, that poor woman.Copy !req
165. So Michael followed Luz...Copy !req
166. who had been sent
to hide the evidence.Copy !req
167. Meanwhile, Tobias had arranged
an audition for a local commercial.Copy !req
168. Lindsay came along
to appear supportive.Copy !req
169. - This could take a while.
- Honey, it's one line.Copy !req
170. Not if I do my job right.Copy !req
171. First of all, I love it.
Quick question though.Copy !req
172. Am I panicked about the fire,
or am I being brave for everyone else?Copy !req
173. The fire...
It's... It's a fire sale.Copy !req
174. Oh. Oh.Copy !req
175. Okay, I didn't, um...Copy !req
176. Well, let's give it a shot.Copy !req
177. Oh, my God!
We're having a fire... sale.Copy !req
178. Oh, the burning!
It burns me!Copy !req
179. Evacuate all the schoolchildren!Copy !req
180. ? This isn't a fever!Copy !req
181. I can't even see
where the knob is!Copy !req
182. And scene.Copy !req
183. Um...Copy !req
184. Would you like to try that
a little simpler maybe?Copy !req
185. No.Copy !req
186. Okay. Anybody else?
Anyone?Copy !req
187. Lindsay Bluth?Copy !req
188. - It's Fünke.
- Roger Danish.Copy !req
189. Look at you.
I can't believe it's Lindsay Bluth.Copy !req
190. - Oh!
- Fünke.Copy !req
191. Roger was my male counterpart
in high school.Copy !req
192. Remember how crazy
our hair was back then?Copy !req
193. What were we thinking?
So what are you doing now?Copy !req
194. - He's, uh, casting my commercial.
- Oh...Copy !req
195. Yeah, trying to. The South Coast
Boutique is having a fire sale.Copy !req
196. South Coast Boutique?
They're having a fire sale?Copy !req
197. Meanwhile, Michael was
still following his mother's housekeeper.Copy !req
198. And she did finally
lead him to the storage unit.Copy !req
199. Unfortunately, it was on fire.Copy !req
200. Somebody wanted this place to go.Copy !req
201. - Yeah? What do you mean, arson?
- Oh, definitely the work of a flamer.Copy !req
202. It shoots tomorrow,
and are you ready for this?Copy !req
203. - It pays 1,000 bucks!
- Mmm. I thought that was Tobias's part.Copy !req
204. Yes. No. No,
I did not book this one.Copy !req
205. I, uh... I think I made the,
uh, fire too real, uh, for them...Copy !req
206. and, uh... and probably failed
to highlight the sale.Copy !req
207. So, good for her.
And, uh, will you excuse me, please?Copy !req
208. Well, that's great,
but I've got my own problems.Copy !req
209. The flight records?
They burned up.Copy !req
210. That's fine. That's over with.
But I think Dad is behind it.Copy !req
211. I think Dad is trying
to run the business from prison.Copy !req
212. Well, isn't that ironic?
I'm making a fortune at my new job...Copy !req
213. and you don't even have
the job you thought you did.Copy !req
214. But you don't have a job. You've got a
job offer. Anybody can get a job offer.Copy !req
215. So, I'm gonna go see Dad,
because this is my business to run now.Copy !req
216. Your business?Copy !req
217. Hey, there you are, Gob.Copy !req
218. I have been looking all over for you.Copy !req
219. I could really use some help.Copy !req
220. Well, I was gonna return this dove.Copy !req
221. What are you... You want me to run
a meeting for you or something?Copy !req
222. Or, even better,
could you mail this letter for me?Copy !req
223. You can't just give that
to a mailman?Copy !req
224. I can't trust a mailman with this.
This is important.Copy !req
225. Gob was intrigued.
He also suspected...Copy !req
226. he couldn't return a completely
frozen dove to a pet store...Copy !req
227. and get the full refund
he felt he was entitled to.Copy !req
228. I'll mail that letter.
- Michael then went
to confront his father.Copy !req
229. You are not going to keep
running the company from in here, okay?Copy !req
230. That's why you wanted me
to give T-Bone a job?Copy !req
231. - To pay him back
for burning down the storage unit?
- Michael, that's ridiculous.Copy !req
232. Well, I'm not hiring him. No.
We don't have the money, Pop.Copy !req
233. There's always money in the banana stand.Copy !req
234. The banana stand! You know, that's
exactly what this feels like. Huh?Copy !req
235. Like I'm still stuck in that hot booth
all summer with you pulling the strings.Copy !req
236. What was I gonna do, put a kid in charge
of a frozen banana stand?Copy !req
237. Sure. That's what I did.
I just made my son the manager.Copy !req
238. George Michael is running
the frozen banana stand now?Copy !req
239. That's right. Yeah. You sit with that.
You think about that for a while.Copy !req
240. George Sr. did think about that.Copy !req
241. Well, now that we've got an employee,
we can go have dinner.Copy !req
242. We throw away a banana for every buck
we take so no one finds out.Copy !req
243. Wait a minute.
I think you should do that math again.Copy !req
244. - Why? Is it wrong?
- It's fine.Copy !req
245. He's an arsonist, not an embezzler.Copy !req
246. Meanwhile, Michael got
an urgent call from his mother.Copy !req
247. Gob is unhappy.Copy !req
248. Again? I tried to include him.
I gave him a job.Copy !req
249. - You gave him a letter to mail.
- Don't tell me that was too much for him.Copy !req
250. No, Michael, he mailed the letter.
That's not the point.Copy !req
251. Gob had not mailed the letter,
but, in an act of defiance...Copy !req
252. dramatically hurled the letter
into the sea.Copy !req
253. This proved a more difficult dramatic
gesture than he'd anticipated.Copy !req
254. - So what do you want me to do about it?
- Don't take that tone.Copy !req
255. He's my son.
I want you to make him stop calling me.Copy !req
256. Am I the only one
who works in this family?Copy !req
257. Yes, that's my gal.Copy !req
258. Who would have imagined... two actors
in one family?Copy !req
259. We're like the Lunts!Copy !req
260. - You see... Excuse me.
- Mama.Copy !req
261. And so, Lindsay and Maeby
separately went to the same restaurant...Copy !req
262. to celebrate thejobs
they hadn't actually performed...Copy !req
263. with money they
hadn't actually earned.Copy !req
264. Did you enjoy your meal, Mom?
You drank it fast enough.Copy !req
265. - Hi, Lucille!
- Not as much as you enjoyed yours.Copy !req
266. You want your belt to buckle,
not your chair.Copy !req
267. Okay, this is what I
told Tobias you'd do.Copy !req
268. Say what you will about him.
At least he's happy for me.Copy !req
269. You know, I think we might
be doubling our losses here.Copy !req
270. Because, I mean, for every dollar you
take, you're actually taking two dollars...Copy !req
271. because we paid for the bananas.Copy !req
272. Oh, my God, you're right.Copy !req
273. I am? Oh, God, I've screwed this up!
Okay, we gotta go.Copy !req
274. - Oh, my God! It's your mom and Gangy.
- What are they doing here?Copy !req
275. They're grown-ups. They're allowed
to have fun whenever they want.Copy !req
276. We're kids. We're supposed to be working.
Now they're gonna tell my dad...Copy !req
277. and he's gonna come check the totals
and know we took the money.Copy !req
278. - Oh, God, this is bad. What are we gonna do?
- Look.Copy !req
279. Pop-pop, he's a business man.
What would he do?Copy !req
280. Bananas Foster.Copy !req
281. You might wanna let that fire go out
before you stick your face in it.Copy !req
282. That's funny, 'cause I was gonna say,
"You might wanna lean away from that fire...Copy !req
283. since you're soaked in alcohol."Copy !req
284. Mine was better.Copy !req
285. Mine was better.Copy !req
286. Welcome to Bluth Bananas,
where bananas are our business.Copy !req
287. May I interest you
in a banana this day?Copy !req
288. - T-Bone, what are you doing here?
- Your dad gave me this job.Copy !req
289. Michael realized that his father
had even taken control...Copy !req
290. of the banana stand.Copy !req
291. But he still had some
unanswered questions...Copy !req
292. so he did
a little detective work.Copy !req
293. - You burn down the storage unit?
- Oh, most definitely.Copy !req
294. Michael, having a nice day
at the beach...Copy !req
295. while the rest of us are busting
our asses to deliver your mail?Copy !req
296. What do you want me to say?
You go and complain to Mom...Copy !req
297. - and I tried to include you.
- Include me?Copy !req
298. - Yeah.
- I should be in charge. I'm the older brother.Copy !req
299. - Please, do you even wanna be in charge?
- No! But I'd like to be asked.Copy !req
300. This is just like when we were kids,
and you were the only one...Copy !req
301. - he let work in the banana stand.
- Well, I got news for you.Copy !req
302. Dad still doesn't trust me to this day.
He treats me like a low-level employee.Copy !req
303. Better than being treated
like the goofball...Copy !req
304. the joker, the magician.Copy !req
305. I thought you were gonna do,
like, a trick there.Copy !req
306. - A fireball or something.
- I was. It didn't go off.Copy !req
307. These things never go off when you want them to.Copy !req
308. - My least consistent trick.
- Hang on one sec. Hello.Copy !req
309. - Hey, Uncle Michael, it's me, Maeby.
- Where's George Michael?Copy !req
310. At the banana stand. He's about to do
something really irresponsible.Copy !req
311. You think it's irresponsible?
I'll be right there.Copy !req
312. - I'm gonna get blamed for this.
- George Michael.Copy !req
313. - Dad.
- Hey, what are you doing?Copy !req
314. I was just, uh...
I was burning down the banana stand.Copy !req
315. - What?
- I'm sorry. I screwed it all up.Copy !req
316. I've got no right to
call myself Mr. Manager.Copy !req
317. - Manager.
- Manager. I'm sorry, Dad.Copy !req
318. - Oh, George Michael.
- I am. But I'll make it up to you.Copy !req
319. I'll work weeknights.
I'll lay people off.Copy !req
320. I'll give up my summer,
all my summers.Copy !req
321. just just tell me what to do,
and I'll do it.Copy !req
322. Michael realized he had done
to his son what his father had done to him...Copy !req
323. so he came up with a solution.Copy !req
324. - Burn it down.
- What?Copy !req
325. Let's burn this son of a bitch.Copy !req
326. This is gonna be
our best summer ever, buddy.Copy !req
327. And so, Michael, his son
and his brother together enjoyed...Copy !req
328. the cathartic burning
of the banana stand.Copy !req
329. You mailed that
insurance check, right, Gob?Copy !req
330. The next morning,
Lindsay woke up late in the day...Copy !req
331. hungover from celebrating
her one day of employment...Copy !req
332. which, it turns out,
she had slept through.Copy !req
333. All right, Lindsay, forget it.
We'll get someone else.Copy !req
334. Tobias was next on the call list...Copy !req
335. but, unfortunately, couldn't hear the phone...Copy !req
336. over the sound of the shower.Copy !req
337. He did, however,
use Lindsay's conditioner...Copy !req
338. - and was surprised to find that
it did help his self-esteem.
- Mornin'.Copy !req
339. - You look nice.
- What?Copy !req
340. You look
very handsome today.Copy !req
341. Thank you, Lindsay.Copy !req
342. And Michael finally got to show
his father who's boss.Copy !req
343. - You what?
- Burned it right down to the ground.Copy !req
344. Are you crazy?
There was money in that banana stand.Copy !req
345. Well, it's all gone now, Dad,
and it was my decision.Copy !req
346. So the next time you wanna have
