Episode Transcript
Written by Jim Vallely and Chuck Martin.
Michael: So, no more lies. Tell me the truth. If that baby is mine, maybe we’re meant to be together.
Maggie: Of course it is, Michael.
Narrator: But that’s when the Fünkes discovered what was in the box that was so easy to lift.
Lindsay: Okay, the box was light, ’cause it had a fake stomach in it, so it looks like she’s faking it. God, I hope you get this.
Tobias: Wait up, please.
Narrator: And George Michael and Maeby brought Ann to the penthouse, in hopes that Lucille would drive her away.
Maeby: Isn’t Ann great?
Lucille: Oh, she’s lovely.
Narrator: Unfortunately, she was distracted by the thought of losing Buster.
Maeby: Hey, do you have any bread pudding? ’Cause, uh, you’d be surprised how much this one can put away.
Lucille: Now that Buster’s not here, there’s no one to finish it. I don’t care if I ever eat again.
Ann 2.0: You know, when times are tough, you can always turn to the power of prayer.
Maeby: Here we go.
Lucille: Show me.
Narrator: This was a big “get” for God.
Narrator: And Michael brought Maggie home to meet his son.
Michael: This is gonna be easy. He’s been signing off on everyone lately. Maybe he called.
Maggie: Hey, listen, so what’s the deal on Zuckerkorn? ’Cause, you know, my fat case? It’s really pretty thin.
Michael: Lying, untrustworthy...
Maggie: Yeah, plus, I heard he hangs out at rest stops.
Michael: No, no, I’m talking about you, Maggie, and I don’t know why I’m surprised. I shouldn’t be. You’re a liar. You lie.
Maggie: Wow, I mean, I heard he hangs out at rest stops, okay?
Michael: And I keep buying it, too. And so maybe there is something wrong with me. I really thought we were starting to trust each other. And I just got a message from my sister saying there’s a box at your house with a fat suit in it. What do you got— like a different one for each trimester?
Maggie: You had your sister break into my house?
Maggie: Oh, you’re so right, Michael. I really can’t be trusted. Because I’m faking it. Not.
Tobias: Hello, Michael! Well, my wife and I finally had the thrill of seeing a plus sign on a pregnancy test.
Lindsay: You’re going to be a daddy!
Narrator: On the next Arrested Development, Barry gets a big break on his case...
Barry: The fat girl in my Skip Church’s case? Not fat. Her attorney bought her a fat suit. Oh, I got another case! Maggie is suing you for paternity.
Narrator: ... and for the first time, Lucille prays, ...
Lucille: Take something else from us. Do whatever you have to to keep my boy from going to war.
