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