Come on. 101 00:05:26,757 --> 00:05:28,725 Save us some money. 102 00:05:28,826 --> 00:05:31,659 This was a management tool that he used to keep Michael... 103 00:05:31,762 --> 00:05:35,323 - working for his approval. - That was a hard one to say no to. 104 00:05:35,432 --> 00:05:38,060 The only thing I ask is out of the 450 homes we build... 105 00:05:38,168 --> 00:05:40,659 one be given to a disadvantaged family from the inner city. 106 00:05:40,771 --> 00:05:44,707 That's great.

Hey, we got no hair. 129 00:06:50,574 --> 00:06:55,238 While Stan Sitwell used the game to raise funds for underprivileged children. 130 00:06:55,345 --> 00:06:59,406 - Oh, I think one of your orphans is heading towards the street. - Strike three. 131 00:06:59,516 --> 00:07:02,314 You go down there, and you tell him to go screw himself... 132 00:07:02,419 --> 00:07:03,818 and apologize to your brother. 133 00:07:03,921 --> 00:07:06,355 We need him on our side, and we need him happy. 134 00:07:06,490 --> 00:07:08,788 - Where's Sitwell? - Sorry.

Very good way to think about her... as a backup. 179 00:09:31,535 --> 00:09:33,332 - She's gonna be so excited. - Good. 180 00:09:33,437 --> 00:09:37,237 - Maybe-Maybe now I'll get a kiss. - Okay. 181 00:09:37,341 --> 00:09:41,505 Oh. I meant from Ann. 182 00:09:42,813 --> 00:09:45,748 Yes, I know. I just want to get in there first. 183 00:09:45,849 --> 00:09:48,647 Okay. 184 00:09:50,888 --> 00:09:53,686 Lindsay, wake up. I need you to play on the softball team this year. 185 00:09:53,790 --> 00:09:56,918 Lindsay felt the intended effect of Teamocil- 186 00:09:57,027 --> 00:10:00,656 - a sense of camaraderie. - Count me in, Michael. Happy to help the team. 187 00:10:04,134 --> 00:10:06,762 - Great news. I'm back. - You just left. 188 00:10:06,870 --> 00:10:08,997 Yeah, I don't think things are gonna work out with Sitwell. 189 00:10:09,106 --> 00:10:12,075 I mean, we picked up his sleepy-head wig, everything was cool. 190 00:10:12,175 --> 00:10:14,700 Next thing I know, he's asking me for a bunch of work ideas. 191 00:10:14,811 --> 00:10:18,872 So, I thought I'd just quit and go back to being president here. 192 00:10:18,982 --> 00:10:22,543 I need to do this job, okay? I need to prove that I can do this job. 193 00:10:22,653 --> 00:10:27,283 - To who? - To... you. 194 00:10:27,391 --> 00:10:31,452 Michael, I'm your big brother. I'll never be impressed with you. 195 00:10:31,561 --> 00:10:33,529 - Still. - Anyway, look. You can still do it. 196 00:10:33,630 --> 00:10:38,192 I just want the office and my stuffs and title. 197 00:10:38,302 --> 00:10:43,467 What about... if I help you with your work over at Sitwell? 198 00:10:43,573 --> 00:10:46,133 - You'd do that? - Sure. 199 00:10:46,243 --> 00:10:48,677 You really want me to succeed at Sitwell. 200 00:10:48,779 --> 00:10:54,411 Well, I just- Hey. Come on. I really want you to be over at Sitwell. 201 00:10:56,903 --> 00:11:02,136 Lucille was worried that her son Buster was being sent into battle with the army. 202 00:11:02,242 --> 00:11:05,370 I feel that we've not brought something up that might be a solution... 203 00:11:05,478 --> 00:11:08,038 um, to spare my feelings. 204 00:11:08,148 --> 00:11:11,606 Send you in his place? I called. They don't want you back. 205 00:11:11,718 --> 00:11:16,348 Oscar had served in Vietnam as a croc spotter on a Swift boat. 206 00:11:16,456 --> 00:11:18,686 Croc! No, Sorry. Wait. Log. 207 00:11:18,792 --> 00:11:20,760 Just a log. No, wait. Sorry. Croc! 208 00:11:20,861 --> 00:11:25,161 It was there that he met a young U.S.O. Dancer named Lucille. 209 00:11:25,265 --> 00:11:27,130 I prefer an older man. 210 00:11:27,234 --> 00:11:31,830 - Hey, I'm free after the show. - I said older, Bob, not dead. 211 00:11:33,673 --> 00:11:36,801 I swore I'd never say his name again, but... 212 00:11:36,910 --> 00:11:39,572 it's time to call you-know-who. 213 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:43,809 "You-know-who"was an army sergeant named Bill Anderson. 214 00:11:43,917 --> 00:11:48,650 He and Lucille were an item before she left him for Oscar. 215 00:11:48,755 --> 00:11:53,556 At the studio, Tobias began to create buzz around the watercooler. 216 00:11:53,660 --> 00:11:55,651 That Fünke is some kind of something. 217 00:11:55,762 --> 00:11:58,026 Boy, this Fünke is all anybody's ever talking about. 218 00:11:58,131 --> 00:12:01,464 So sick and tired of hearing about how brilliant that Fünke is. 219 00:12:01,568 --> 00:12:05,629 Overrated. I'll just move- I'm sorry. 220 00:12:05,739 --> 00:12:08,264 Okay. We're okay. Okay. 221 00:12:08,375 --> 00:12:12,004 Meanwhile, Maeby looked for an empty office to call George Michael. 222 00:12:12,112 --> 00:12:16,208 Where are you? I bought you a day. I can't put this book report off forever. 223 00:12:16,316 --> 00:12:18,511 Sorry, is this your office? 224 00:12:18,618 --> 00:12:22,145 No. I'm just sitting behind someone else's desk pretending these are my kids. 225 00:12:22,255 --> 00:12:25,281 Can you getJude Law in here for a meeting? 226 00:12:25,392 --> 00:12:27,451 - Oh, I'm just a reader. - A reader? 227 00:12:27,560 --> 00:12:31,189 - Yeah. - I need a report by tomorrow. 228 00:12:31,298 --> 00:12:35,928 Before gym-lunch... with Jim... Carrey. 229 00:12:36,036 --> 00:12:38,300 It's the Grinch guy. You're too young. 230 00:12:42,242 --> 00:12:46,042 So get this. Sitwell loved my ideas. 231 00:12:46,146 --> 00:12:49,115 Well, my ideas and I knew it. That's great. 232 00:12:49,215 --> 00:12:52,013 - You know, Dad never complimented any of those. - Here's the thing. 233 00:12:52,118 --> 00:12:55,986 - I need more. - There were 34 proposals in there. 234 00:12:56,089 --> 00:12:58,819 You'd be amazed how fast they come out when you read them all in a row. 235 00:12:58,925 --> 00:13:03,055 "Thirty-one, bamboo floor upgrades. Cheaper, stronger." I can't read this word. 236 00:13:03,163 --> 00:13:06,098 "Thirty-two, wireless 'crapability."' That one explains itself. 237 00:13:06,199 --> 00:13:08,497 - "Thirty-three"- - Gob, that was six-months' worth of work. 238 00:13:08,601 --> 00:13:10,569 - You can't just blurt them all out at once. - Mr. Bluth. 239 00:13:10,670 --> 00:13:13,901 - He's coming. I've got to go. - You blew them away. 240 00:13:14,007 --> 00:13:17,807 Bought you something. Maybe we can play catch sometime. 241 00:13:17,911 --> 00:13:21,210 Gob's own father had only once played catch with him. 242 00:13:21,314 --> 00:13:25,410 And it ended as badly as any game of catch could end. 243 00:13:25,518 --> 00:13:28,646 - White power! - Better yet, maybe we can play ball on Saturday. 244 00:13:28,755 --> 00:13:31,724 I'll meet you there. I've got a neck hair fitting at 11:00. 245 00:13:31,825 --> 00:13:36,785 Gob was both angry... and overwhelmed... 246 00:13:36,896 --> 00:13:40,024 by the approval from this new father figure. 247 00:13:40,133 --> 00:13:43,193 It was confusing. 248 00:13:43,303 --> 00:13:46,204 Michael was less torn and went to brag to his father. 249 00:13:46,306 --> 00:13:51,039 So, apparently my ideas aren't so bad, and that comes from Sitwell himself. 250 00:13:51,144 --> 00:13:54,875 - You let your ideas go to Sitwell? - Uh, no. I gave them to Gob... 251 00:13:54,981 --> 00:13:58,712 who, uh, works there now. 252 00:13:58,818 --> 00:14:00,786 You let Gob go to Sitwell? 253 00:14:00,887 --> 00:14:03,185 - What'd I tell you? I told you- - "Don't let him go." I know. 254 00:14:03,289 --> 00:14:06,224 - But my point is that I do all the work, Pop. - He makes all the plays. 255 00:14:06,326 --> 00:14:08,658 Don't you understand? He was the best softball player in the league. 256 00:14:08,762 --> 00:14:13,893 Gob was especially gifted at sacrificing his body for the play. 257 00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,128 - Play's at second. Play's at second. - Yeah! Suck on that, Sitwell. 258 00:14:17,237 --> 00:14:19,728 Although at times, even that wasn't enough. 259 00:14:19,839 --> 00:14:22,672 Your Tweety Bird dance just cost us a run, you moron. 260 00:14:22,776 --> 00:14:25,006 Why do you think Sitwell hired him? 261 00:14:25,111 --> 00:14:28,478 You can't do this. You're gonna lose the game, the company, and you can't do this. 262 00:14:28,581 --> 00:14:31,573 What are you saying? If I win the game, you're comfortable with me running the company? 263 00:14:31,684 --> 00:14:33,811 - That's what I'm saying. - I'll win the game. 264 00:14:33,953 --> 00:14:37,184 And I'll show him that his little plan didn't work, all right? 265 00:14:37,290 --> 00:14:40,919 - We can build houses. We can win games. - That is what I wanna hear. 266 00:14:41,027 --> 00:14:45,088 We can win games. 267 00:14:46,699 --> 00:14:50,601 Lindsay, did that oven vent hit you? Your foot is bleeding. 268 00:14:50,703 --> 00:14:54,298 My foot is bleeding. - Teamocil may cause numbness of the extremities. 269 00:14:54,407 --> 00:14:56,375 You're gonna be able to play on our team, right? 270 00:14:56,476 --> 00:14:59,775 - Why do you think I'm taking Teamocil? - To curb your sex drive. 271 00:14:59,879 --> 00:15:01,779 That's right. What team are you talking about? 272 00:15:01,881 --> 00:15:05,476 It may also cause short-term memory loss. 273 00:15:05,585 --> 00:15:08,281 Okay. Looks like I'm gonna need that female backup player after all. 274 00:15:08,388 --> 00:15:11,323 - And Ann's really good at softball, huh? - Yeah. She's amazing. 275 00:15:11,424 --> 00:15:14,018 You know, she's got this low center of gravity. You can't knock her over. 276 00:15:14,127 --> 00:15:16,857 - Well, I could knock her over. - Dad, I'm telling you, you can't. 277 00:15:16,963 --> 00:15:19,193 They call her "The Wall," you know? 278 00:15:19,299 --> 00:15:23,463 Well, that's great. But I could knock her over. I won't, but I could. 279 00:15:23,570 --> 00:15:26,198 - And Lucille called on an old lover. - William? 280 00:15:26,306 --> 00:15:28,740 - Yes, ma'am? - You don't remember me? 281 00:15:28,842 --> 00:15:32,972 General Anderson had done three tours of duty in Vietnam... 282 00:15:33,079 --> 00:15:38,039 - but the only memory he'd blocked was being left by Lucille. - Oh, God. That touch. 283 00:15:38,151 --> 00:15:42,019 - Oh, how could I forget? Pat? - Lucille. 284 00:15:42,122 --> 00:15:44,989 I could never forget that touch. 285 00:15:45,091 --> 00:15:48,822 Bill, they're shipping my son Buster off. I can't have that happen. 286 00:15:48,928 --> 00:15:53,228 - I'm sorry. There's nothing I can do. - Is there anything I can do? 287 00:15:54,534 --> 00:15:59,597 Maybe if you... go downtown. 288 00:15:59,706 --> 00:16:03,574 Oh, I haven't done that in 30 years. 289 00:16:14,053 --> 00:16:16,783 You make me want to puke, Bluth! 290 00:16:16,890 --> 00:16:19,688 And so, Buster was pulled out of combat training- 291 00:16:19,792 --> 00:16:24,354 - Put 'em down and halt! - and put into U.S.O. Training. 292 00:16:27,734 --> 00:16:31,693 - It jolts, but it's not really doing it right now. - And back at Gob's new office. 293 00:16:31,804 --> 00:16:33,601 - Michael. - Do you still need those ideas? 294 00:16:33,706 --> 00:16:36,539 Come on. Are you kidding me? I can't let Sitwell down. 295 00:16:36,643 --> 00:16:40,204 - L-I'm desperate here. - Then I'll make you a deal. 296 00:16:40,313 --> 00:16:44,306 - I want you to throw the softball game. - Never! 297 00:16:44,417 --> 00:16:47,079 - He gave me this. - Course he did. Why do you think he hired you? 298 00:16:47,187 --> 00:16:50,054 He liked my ideas. 299 00:16:50,156 --> 00:16:52,056 They were my ideas, and, no, he didn't. 300 00:16:52,158 --> 00:16:55,889 He wants you for the softball game because he's trying to make our family look foolish. 301 00:16:55,995 --> 00:17:00,830 I knew you had bad ideas. All right, we'll play him. 302 00:17:00,934 --> 00:17:03,562 I'll throw that softball game. 303 00:17:03,670 --> 00:17:06,901 Nobody makes a fool of our family without my help. 304 00:17:11,462 --> 00:17:15,694 Tobias had talked up the name Fünke, and it was time to audition. 305 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,530 - What's your name? - Tobias. 306 00:17:18,636 --> 00:17:20,661 He's too short. Give it to the guard. 307 00:17:20,772 --> 00:17:26,108 Oh. L- I'm not. L- On camera, I seem much taller. 308 00:17:26,210 --> 00:17:29,509 And Maeby picked up the reader's report, which had now become her book report. 309 00:17:29,614 --> 00:17:32,310 - Whatcha got there? - I can't really discuss it. 310 00:17:32,417 --> 00:17:34,817 If you wanna get it made, I'm the guy who has to see it. 311 00:17:34,919 --> 00:17:38,548 You're the Fünke everyone's talking about? What are you, like, 15? 312 00:17:38,656 --> 00:17:42,524 - Marry me. - Everyone thinks I look young too. 313 00:17:42,627 --> 00:17:45,619 - So who are you thinking about? - Jude Law. Why do you ask? 314 00:17:45,730 --> 00:17:48,198 Yeah. Go young. Young Guy and the Sea. Big spring-breaker. 315 00:17:48,299 --> 00:17:51,291 Four C.G.I. The fish. Let's fast-track this one. 316 00:17:51,402 --> 00:17:54,803 And that's when Maeby realized she had become a successful film executive. 317 00:17:54,906 --> 00:17:57,067 - It's all waxed up. - All waxed up? What do you mean? 318 00:17:57,175 --> 00:18:00,167 - I need something. Ajob for my dad. - Yeah, yeah. Sure. Okay. 319 00:18:00,278 --> 00:18:03,645 Listen to me. Brand new cars don't get waxed! 320 00:18:03,748 --> 00:18:06,216 That afternoon it was game time... 321 00:18:06,317 --> 00:18:08,808 and Michael felt confident about a Bluth win. 322 00:18:11,322 --> 00:18:13,552 Spin, spin, spin. 323 00:18:13,658 --> 00:18:18,391 Ann wasn't as amazing as George Michael led his father to believe. 324 00:18:19,464 --> 00:18:21,659 But Gob was playing worse than ever... 325 00:18:21,766 --> 00:18:24,667 as per his agreement with Michael. 326 00:18:32,109 --> 00:18:35,442 Your guy can't hit, Sitwell. He's never gonna touch it. 327 00:18:35,546 --> 00:18:37,605 - Time out. - Time out. 328 00:18:37,715 --> 00:18:39,842 Gob, are you okay? 329 00:18:39,951 --> 00:18:42,749 Yeah, just can't hit today. Guess you're really disappointed in me. 330 00:18:42,854 --> 00:18:46,017 Hey. Everybody has days like this. It's only a game. 331 00:18:46,123 --> 00:18:49,183 After that list of ideas you gave me, I don't care if you blow the whole season. 332 00:18:49,293 --> 00:18:52,023 Come here, you. 333 00:18:53,431 --> 00:18:55,194 Okay. We're good. 334 00:18:55,299 --> 00:18:59,258 And Gob finally felt that someone believed in him. 335 00:18:59,370 --> 00:19:03,033 Even though they weren't his ideas. 336 00:19:03,140 --> 00:19:05,768 And he decided to make Sitwell proud. 337 00:19:08,913 --> 00:19:11,040 Get on that ball! 338 00:19:13,384 --> 00:19:15,875 You go! 339 00:19:15,987 --> 00:19:17,887 You better pull an ankle or something. 340 00:19:17,989 --> 00:19:19,889 Come on, George Michael! Get that ball in there! 341 00:19:19,991 --> 00:19:22,050 Then he went headfirst into The Wall. 342 00:19:22,159 --> 00:19:24,127 - I'm safe. - You're out! 343 00:19:24,228 --> 00:19:27,561 Out? I was safe! I'm safe! 344 00:19:27,665 --> 00:19:30,725 - Stop with the Tweety Bird dance, you moron. - Dad? 345 00:19:30,835 --> 00:19:33,167 He made the call. You're out. What are you doing? 346 00:19:33,271 --> 00:19:35,068 - Shush, shush, shush. - Dad? 347 00:19:35,172 --> 00:19:37,572 - He's safe. - What the hell are you doing here? 348 00:19:37,675 --> 00:19:40,769 I'm taking care of what you screwed up.
