Episode Notes |
| |
On The Next Arrested Development Gag: On the next season of Arrested Development: Oscar, robbed of his fingerprints, has difficulty proving his identity; Tobias and Kitty go to Vegas, only to find that his dream job has been filled; and George, Sr. turns out to be right about the effects of stress.
| FOX had originaly greenlit 22 episodes for the second season, but due to lackluster ratings, cut the episode order down to 18, making this the season finale.
| This episode was the winner of Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series at the 2005 Emmy's.
| The song that G.O.B. sings is Bryan Adams' "(Everything I Do) I Do It For You".
| Courtney Lilly, who guest stars in this episode as an engineer, is a writer for the series.

Episode Quotes |
| |
Michael: This can't be good.
Tobias: (reading from a script) Michael, it saddens me greatly to say I can no longer work here at the Bluth Company. You've been a great boss --
Michael: Wait. Tobias, Tobias...do you work here?
Tobias: Do I work here...I developed an eating disorder from being your assistant, Michael!
Michael: I never saw you at the desk.
Tobias: Well, excuse me if I was too busy on my knees in front of the toilet, Michael!
| Michael: The city's sending out an inspector. They're going to be crawling over every inch of this place; you're going to need to leave.
George Sr.: Where the hell do you want me to go, Michael? Back to your mother's? I believe there's a freeloading loser in my bed.
Michael: You know, Buster's just lost a hand, dad. He's going through a lot.
George Sr.: I'm talking about Oscar
Michael: Oh, yes. Your brother. I can see why that would bug you.
| George Sr.: No! I can't go back to that hellhole!
Michael: They finally got the court to try you in absentia, so you don't have to go to prison, but you can't stay here.
| Michael: We’re brothers who shouldn’t be fighting. We cannot afford to lose each other, okay?
G.O.B.: I can’t. I already lost a brother today.
Michael: Franklin?
G.O.B.: Well, I didn’t lose him, but he’s all puckered and white.
Michael: On the plus side, you can take him to lunch at the club now.
G.O.B.: That’s the exact kind of joke he would have loved!
| Michael: Since you’re devastating people, go ahead and tell G.O.B. that I’ll be telling the cops that it was him in the truck. So he’ll be joining me here. I’ve got a nice hard cot with his name on it.
Lucille: You’d do that to your own brother?
Michael: I said “cot.”
