Episode Notes |
| |
On The Next Arrested Development Gag: Buster makes a startling revelation, Michael solves the mystery of the missing money, and Gilligan fulfills his destiny.
| Narrator: The group was underwritten by the Natural Life Food Company, a division of ChemGrow, an Allyn-Crane Acquisition, and part of the Squimm Group. Their motto was simple: “We keep you alive.”
Allyn-Crane was the last name of an Arrested Development fan that mailed the cast and crew cookies. The writers wrote the last name into the script and mailed her a copy of the script as a thank you.

Episode Quotes |
| |
Buster: Where'd Annyong get that juice box?
Annyong: Annyong.
Lucille: Those are for his soccer team. No sugar for you. You just get more awful.
| Lindsay: I'm tired of trying to find happiness through lies and self-medicating. If you need me, I'll be at the bar.
| Wife Of G.O.B.: G.O.B., I want out. I'm in love with your brother --
G.O.B.: What?!
(G.O.B. turns to Michael)
G.O.B.: You did it again, you son of a bitch!
(G.O.B. punches Michael in the face, knocking him out)
Wife Of G.O.B.: -- in-law. Tobias. Sorry. I should have finished that thought.
| Buster: We have unlimited juice? (laughs) This party is going to be off the hook.
| Lucille: Because Buster’s your brother and I’m not going to leave him home alone with all this j-u-i-c-e around.
Buster: I can spell, Mom. You spelled “juice.”
Lucille: Oh, you’re so brilliant. Let’s see you find it.
| Ira Gilligan: Please, call me Ira. I don’t like Gilligan.
G.O.B.: Who doesn’t like Gilligan?
| G.O.B.: You can help me get rid of her, though. Mom’s having a cocktail party. She’ll be there. You could try and break us up.
Michael: I can’t do that.
G.O.B.: Why not? You did with me and Marta. You had no problem with that, guy. You know what? Lie to her. Tell her that I’m insensitive and unreliable.
Michael: Maybe something about how you can never confront people and you need someone else to clean up your messes.
G.O.B.: See, that’s great... and that’s just off the top of your head.
| Tobias: As you may or may not know, Lindsay and I have hit a bit of a rough patch.
Michael: Really? When did that start?
Tobias: Well, I don’t want to blame it all on 9/11, but it certainly didn’t help.
| Tobias: I just want to be a family again. I guess what I’m saying is, I want to reunite the band.
Michael: Oh, no.
Narrator: “Oh, no” was right. In the mid-’90s, Tobias formed a folk music group with Lindsay and Maeby— called Dr. Fünke’s 100% Natural Good-Time Family-Band Solution. The group was underwritten by the Natural Life Food Company, a division of ChemGrow, an Allyn-Crane Acquisition, and part of the Squimm Group. Their motto was simple: “We keep you alive.”
| (two years ealier...)
George, Sr.: Gilligan has promised me that all this money will be safe in IRAs.
Ira Gilligan: It’s Ira, sir.
George, Sr.: Oh, I’m sorry, Gilligan. Will be safe in Ira’s.
