  Episode Notes  
This is the first appearance of Liza Minnelli (Lucille Austero) since "Marta Complex".
 
On The Next Arrested Development Gag: Lucille 2 reclaims some space, The Queen Mary changes hands once again, and G.O.B. gets needy.
 
  Episode Quotes  
Michael: I’m driving a staircase, for God’s sake, okay? It smells like gas, I get hop-ons ...
George Sr.: Well, of course, you’re gonna get hop-ons.
Michael: And most importantly, Dad, my son does not like to be seen in it.
George Sr.: (laughing) But he likes being seen with that girl!
 
Barry: Unfortunately, it's a private stock, so you cannot just buy up the shares unless someone is willing to sell.
Michael: Are you sure?
Barry: That's what they said on "Ask Jeeves".
 
G.O.B.: I'm an idea man, Michael. That's how I came up with F*** Mountain.
 
Buster: Mom's becoming a little controlling.
Michael: What tipped you off? When she locked you out on the balcony again?
Buster: That was half my fault. I thought I saw a graham cracker out there.
Michael: You baited the balcony?
Lucille: Prove it.
 
  Episode Goofs  
When Michael is in the club with Lucille 2, his jacket collar changes from lying flat to being popped up between shots.
 
The narrator states that Michael drops off Lucille 2, but in the previous scene, Michael says he's going to call her a cab.
 
  Cultural References  
G.O.B.: Michael, I was never on Card Sharks. Dad told us not to tell you.

Card Sharks is a popular game show that aired on CBS during the 1980s.
 
  Episode References  
Narrator: So, G.O.B. bleeped Lucille 2.

The phrase "G.O.B. beeped..." first was used in "Visiting Ours".
 
Narrator: Indeed, Starla and Buster did hit it off well, Buster being a sweeter, more supportive man than she was used to, and Starla being a woman that wasn’t 70.

Starla and Buster hit it off at Klimpy's. Klimpy's was first seen on a commerical while Maeby and George Michael are watching TV in "Visiting Ours".
