Episode Quotes
Oscar: I'm innocent Michael! I'm Oscar! Dot com.
Michael: No, no, don't buy it. I'm taking my son to the cabin, and there's nothing you can say to make me believe that you are not my father.
Oscar: I understand. Your child comes first.
Michael: Oh, my God, you're Oscar.
Oscar: Dot com.
Lucille: Ohhhh, come on!
Buster: Mother?
Lucille: What the hell are you doing back there?
Buster: I decided to sleep in the car so my snoring wouldn't bother you. And I left that recording of my snoring so you wouldn't know I'm gone.
Lucille: We're halfway to the cabin, I'm gonna drop you by this light.
Steve Holt: You look familiar.
G.O.B.: I think that's because we actually kinda look alike.
