Revision: 1.8
Narrator: Now the story of a wealthy family who lost everything and the one son who had no choice but to keep them all together. It’s... Arrested Development.
Narrator: Michael arrived to find the house still a mess a week after the fumigation.
Michael: So you still haven’t put this stuff back yet, huh? You’ve got to be the laziest person in the world.
Lindsay: If you weren’t all the way on the other side of the room, I’d slap your face.
Michael: I asked you to clean this up.
Lindsay: Yeah, and you also asked me to call the fumigators, and you haven’t even thanked me for doing that.
Narrator: Michael had asked her to do this, but that was long before he began hiding his father in the attic.
George, Sr.: What the...?
George, Sr.: Oh, God! Polly, cover your mouth!
Narrator: Luckily, Michael was notified in time.
Michael: Well, we had a deal, you know: I pay for everything and you clean the house. You’ve only done it once.
Narrator: She hadn’t even done it that time, but instead, intercepted her mother’s housekeeper...
Lindsay: Hey, Lupe.
Narrator: ...as she was arriving for work.
Lindsay: Can I take you the rest of the way?
Lupe: Missus... Missus...
Lindsay: Oh, I have to make one quick stop first.
Narrator: Lupe never accepted a ride from Lindsay again.
Lindsay: I tried to give it one last chance...
Lindsay: I don’t know why, but that’s it. You can pack your junk and get out.
Tobias: You’re kicking me out? At the beginning of pilot season?
Lindsay: You’re not going to make it as an actor and we’re not going to make it as a couple.

Michael: I’m really sorry to hear that.
