Board Member #3: Why should we believe in you?
G.O.B.: For the same reason you should believe a hundred dollar bill is no more than a hundred pennies.
G.O.B.: They approved me unanimously.
Michael: Why wouldn’t they? You’ve only lost them 99 dollars so far.
G.O.B.: Well, I’ve already been pretty successful. Showing the model house again. Sent a realtor over there yesterday.
Michael: I’m here because I thought you might need me.
G.O.B.: I need you?
Michael: That’s right.
G.O.B.: Oh, boy. That’s good. Can’t wait to call the guys in to hear this one. (Picks up the phone.) How do you intercom on this?
Michael: Star 2.
G.O.B.: At the same time?
Michael: Hit... no, just the star. In the corner.
G.O.B.: So if I do it like that.
Michael: No, turn your hand the other way. Star.
G.O.B.: Oh, that’s star.
Michael: 2. Alright, let’s just hang it up. There we go.
Michael: I thought that you might need me to help you with the books. You know, the corporate checkbook. Where is it?
G.O.B.: Actually, Mom’s got it. She was uncomfortable with me...
Narrator: Tobias was also having a bad day. Lindsay had met someone and he hadn’t. And that’s when he found what he thought was a support group for depressed men.
Lucille: Well, if it isn’t the boy who cried “Phoenix.”
Michael: Ho ho. No, I was just worried about Buster. I thought maybe I should give him a little guidance. Write him a check, be a role model. Where is the company checkbook?
Buster: I already have a new role model, Michael.
Lucille: His uncle Oscar is living here now.
Michael: Wow, you guys have accomplished a lot in the last three hours. Where is he?
Oscar: I sent him out for a new airhorn.
Lucille: We’ve got it all under control.
Michael: Great.
Lucille: They haven’t yet. And frankly, it’s a very difficult charge to prove.
