Hey, we got no hair. 129 00:06:51,298 --> 00:06:55,962 While Stan Sitwell used the game to raise funds for underprivileged children. 130 00:06:56,069 --> 00:07:00,130 - Oh, I think one of your orphans is heading towards the street. - Strike three. 131 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,038 You go down there, and you tell him to go screw himself... 132 00:07:03,143 --> 00:07:04,542 and apologize to your brother. 133 00:07:04,645 --> 00:07:07,079 We need him on our side, and we need him happy. 134 00:07:07,214 --> 00:07:09,512 - Where's Sitwell? - Sorry.

Very good way to think about her... as a backup. 179 00:09:32,259 --> 00:09:34,056 - She's gonna be so excited. - Good. 180 00:09:34,161 --> 00:09:37,961 - Maybe-Maybe now I'll get a kiss. - Okay. 181 00:09:38,065 --> 00:09:42,229 Oh. I meant from Ann. 182 00:09:43,537 --> 00:09:46,472 Yes, I know. I just want to get in there first. 183 00:09:46,573 --> 00:09:49,371 Okay. 184 00:09:51,612 --> 00:09:54,410 Lindsay, wake up. I need you to play on the softball team this year. 185 00:09:54,514 --> 00:09:57,642 Lindsay felt the intended effect of Teamocil- 186 00:09:57,751 --> 00:10:01,380 - a sense of camaraderie. - Count me in, Michael. Happy to help the team. 187 00:10:04,858 --> 00:10:07,486 - Great news. I'm back. - You just left. 188 00:10:07,594 --> 00:10:09,721 Yeah, I don't think things are gonna work out with Sitwell. 189 00:10:09,830 --> 00:10:12,799 I mean, we picked up his sleepy-head wig, everything was cool. 190 00:10:12,899 --> 00:10:15,424 Next thing I know, he's asking me for a bunch of work ideas. 191 00:10:15,535 --> 00:10:19,596 So, I thought I'd just quit and go back to being president here. 192 00:10:19,706 --> 00:10:23,267 I need to do this job, okay? I need to prove that I can do this job. 193 00:10:23,377 --> 00:10:28,007 - To who? - To... you. 194 00:10:28,115 --> 00:10:32,176 Michael, I'm your big brother. I'll never be impressed with you. 195 00:10:32,285 --> 00:10:34,253 - Still. - Anyway, look. You can still do it. 196 00:10:34,354 --> 00:10:38,916 I just want the office and my stuffs and title. 197 00:10:39,026 --> 00:10:44,191 What about... if I help you with your work over at Sitwell? 198 00:10:44,297 --> 00:10:46,857 - You'd do that? - Sure. 199 00:10:46,967 --> 00:10:49,401 You really want me to succeed at Sitwell. 200 00:10:49,503 --> 00:10:55,135 Well, I just- Hey. Come on. I really want you to be over at Sitwell. 201 00:10:59,746 --> 00:11:04,979 Lucille was worried that her son Buster was being sent into battle with the army. 202 00:11:05,085 --> 00:11:08,213 I feel that we've not brought something up that might be a solution... 203 00:11:08,321 --> 00:11:10,881 um, to spare my feelings. 204 00:11:10,991 --> 00:11:14,449 Send you in his place? I called. They don't want you back. 205 00:11:14,561 --> 00:11:19,191 Oscar had served in Vietnam as a croc spotter on a Swift boat. 206 00:11:19,299 --> 00:11:21,529 Croc! No, Sorry. Wait. Log. 207 00:11:21,635 --> 00:11:23,603 Just a log. No, wait. Sorry. Croc! 208 00:11:23,704 --> 00:11:28,004 - It was there that he met a young U.S.O. Dancer named Lucille. 209 00:11:28,108 --> 00:11:29,973 I prefer an older man. 210 00:11:30,077 --> 00:11:34,673 - Hey, I'm free after the show. - I said older, Bob, not dead. 211 00:11:36,516 --> 00:11:39,644 I swore I'd never say his name again, but... 212 00:11:39,753 --> 00:11:42,415 it's time to call you-know-who. 213 00:11:42,522 --> 00:11:46,652 "You-know-who'was an army sergeant named Bill Anderson. 214 00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:51,493 He and Lucille were an item before she left him for Oscar. 215 00:11:51,598 --> 00:11:56,399 At the studio, Tobias began to create buzz around the watercooler. 216 00:11:56,503 --> 00:11:58,494 That Fünke is some kind of something. 217 00:11:58,605 --> 00:12:00,869 Boy, this Fünke is all anybody's ever talking about. 218 00:12:00,974 --> 00:12:04,307 So sick and tired of hearing about how brilliant that Fünke is. 219 00:12:04,411 --> 00:12:08,472 Overrated. I'll just move- I'm sorry. 220 00:12:08,582 --> 00:12:11,107 Okay. We're okay. Okay. 221 00:12:11,218 --> 00:12:14,847 Meanwhile, Maeby looked for an empty office to call George Michael. 222 00:12:14,955 --> 00:12:19,051 Where are you? I bought you a day. I can't put this book report off forever. 223 00:12:19,159 --> 00:12:21,354 Sorry, is this your office? 224 00:12:21,461 --> 00:12:24,988 No. I'm just sitting behind someone else's desk pretending these are my kids. 225 00:12:25,098 --> 00:12:28,124 Can you get Jude Law in here for a meeting? 226 00:12:28,235 --> 00:12:30,294 - Oh, I'm just a reader. - A reader? 227 00:12:30,403 --> 00:12:34,032 - Yeah. - I need a report by tomorrow. 228 00:12:34,141 --> 00:12:38,771 Before gym-lunch... with Jim... Carrey. 229 00:12:38,879 --> 00:12:41,143 It's the Grinch guy. You're too young. 230 00:12:45,085 --> 00:12:48,885 So get this. Sitwell loved my ideas. 231 00:12:48,989 --> 00:12:51,958 Well, my ideas and I knew it. That's great. 232 00:12:52,058 --> 00:12:54,856 - You know, Dad never complimented any of those. - Here's the thing. 233 00:12:54,961 --> 00:12:58,829 - I need more. - There were 34 proposals in there. 234 00:12:58,932 --> 00:13:01,662 You'd be amazed how fast they come out when you read them all in a row. 235 00:13:01,768 --> 00:13:05,898 "Thirty-one, bamboo floor upgrades. Cheaper, stronger." I can't read this word. 236 00:13:06,006 --> 00:13:08,941 "Thirty-two, wireless 'crapability."' That one explains itself. 237 00:13:09,042 --> 00:13:11,340 - "Thirty-three"- - Gob, that was six-months' worth of work. 238 00:13:11,444 --> 00:13:13,412 - You can't just blurt them all out at once. - Mr. Bluth. 239 00:13:13,513 --> 00:13:16,744 - He's coming. I've got to go. - You blew them away. 240 00:13:16,850 --> 00:13:20,650 Bought you something. Maybe we can play catch sometime. 241 00:13:20,754 --> 00:13:24,053 Gob's own father had only once played catch with him. 242 00:13:24,157 --> 00:13:28,253 And it ended as badly as any game of catch could end. 243 00:13:28,361 --> 00:13:31,489 - White power! - Better yet, maybe we can play ball on Saturday. 244 00:13:31,598 --> 00:13:34,567 I'll meet you there. I've got a neck hair fitting at 11:00. 245 00:13:34,668 --> 00:13:39,628 Gob was both angry... and overwhelmed... 246 00:13:39,739 --> 00:13:42,867 by the approval from this new father figure. 247 00:13:42,976 --> 00:13:46,036 It was confusing. 248 00:13:46,146 --> 00:13:49,047 Michael was less torn and went to brag to his father. 249 00:13:49,149 --> 00:13:53,882 So, apparently my ideas aren't so bad, and that comes from Sitwell himself. 250 00:13:53,987 --> 00:13:57,718 - You let your ideas go to Sitwell? - Uh, no. I gave them to Gob... 251 00:13:57,824 --> 00:14:01,555 who, uh, works there now. 252 00:14:01,661 --> 00:14:03,629 You let Gob go to Sitwell? 253 00:14:03,730 --> 00:14:06,028 - What'd I tell you? I told you- - "Don't let him go." I know. 254 00:14:06,132 --> 00:14:09,067 - But my point is that I do all the work, Pop. - He makes all the plays. 255 00:14:09,169 --> 00:14:11,501 Don't you understand? He was the best softball player in the league. 256 00:14:11,605 --> 00:14:16,736 Gob was especially gifted at sacrificing his body for the play. 257 00:14:16,843 --> 00:14:19,971 - Play's at second. Play's at second. - Yeah! Suck on that, Sitwell. 258 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,571 Although at times, even that wasn't enough. 259 00:14:22,682 --> 00:14:25,515 Your Tweety Bird dance just cost us a run, you moron. 260 00:14:25,619 --> 00:14:27,849 Why do you think Sitwell hired him? 261 00:14:27,954 --> 00:14:31,321 You can't do this. You're gonna lose the game, the company, and you can't do this. 262 00:14:31,424 --> 00:14:34,416 What are you saying? If I win the game, you're comfortable with me running the company? 263 00:14:34,527 --> 00:14:36,654 - That's what I'm saying. - I'll win the game. 264 00:14:36,796 --> 00:14:40,027 And I'll show him that his little plan didn't work, all right? 265 00:14:40,133 --> 00:14:43,762 - We can build houses. We can win games. - That is what I wanna hear. 266 00:14:43,870 --> 00:14:47,931 - We can win games. 267 00:14:49,542 --> 00:14:53,444 Lindsay, did that oven vent hit you? Your foot is bleeding. 268 00:14:53,546 --> 00:14:57,141 - My foot is bleeding. - Teamocil may cause numbness of the extremities. 269 00:14:57,250 --> 00:14:59,218 You're gonna be able to play on our team, right? 270 00:14:59,319 --> 00:15:02,618 - Why do you think I'm taking Teamocil? - To curb your sex drive. 271 00:15:02,722 --> 00:15:04,622 That's right. What team are you talking about? 272 00:15:04,724 --> 00:15:08,319 It may also cause short-term memory loss. 273 00:15:08,428 --> 00:15:11,124 Okay. Looks like I'm gonna need that female backup player after all. 274 00:15:11,231 --> 00:15:14,166 - And Ann's really good at softball, huh? - Yeah. She's amazing. 275 00:15:14,267 --> 00:15:16,861 You know, she's got this low center of gravity. You can't knock her over. 276 00:15:16,970 --> 00:15:19,700 - Well, I could knock her over. - Dad, I'm telling you, you can't. 277 00:15:19,806 --> 00:15:22,036 They call her "The Wall," you know? 278 00:15:22,142 --> 00:15:26,306 Well, that's great. But I could knock her over. I won't, but I could. 279 00:15:26,413 --> 00:15:29,041 - And Lucille called on an old lover. - William? 280 00:15:29,149 --> 00:15:31,583 - Yes, ma'am? - You don't remember me? 281 00:15:31,685 --> 00:15:35,815 General Anderson had done three tours of duty in Vietnam... 282 00:15:35,922 --> 00:15:40,882 - but the only memory he'd blocked was being left by Lucille. - Oh, God. That touch. 283 00:15:40,994 --> 00:15:44,862 - Oh, how could I forget? Pat? - Lucille. 284 00:15:44,965 --> 00:15:47,832 I could never forget that touch. 285 00:15:47,934 --> 00:15:51,665 Bill, they're shipping my son Buster off. I can't have that happen. 286 00:15:51,771 --> 00:15:56,071 - I'm sorry. There's nothing I can do. - Is there anything I can do? 287 00:15:57,377 --> 00:16:02,440 Maybe if you... go downtown. 288 00:16:02,549 --> 00:16:06,417 Oh, I haven't done that in 30 years. 289 00:16:16,896 --> 00:16:19,626 - You make me want to puke, Bluth! 290 00:16:19,733 --> 00:16:22,531 And so, Buster was pulled out of combat training- 291 00:16:22,635 --> 00:16:27,197 - Put 'em down and halt! - and put into U.S.O. Training. 292 00:16:30,577 --> 00:16:34,536 - It jolts, but it's not really doing it right now. - And back at Gob's new office. 293 00:16:34,647 --> 00:16:36,444 - Michael. - Do you still need those ideas? 294 00:16:36,549 --> 00:16:39,382 Come on. Are you kidding me? I can't let Sitwell down. 295 00:16:39,486 --> 00:16:43,047 - L-I'm desperate here. - Then I'll make you a deal. 296 00:16:43,156 --> 00:16:47,149 - I want you to throw the softball game. - Never! 297 00:16:47,260 --> 00:16:49,922 - He gave me this. - Course he did. Why do you think he hired you? 298 00:16:50,030 --> 00:16:52,897 He liked my ideas. 299 00:16:52,999 --> 00:16:54,899 They were my ideas, and, no, he didn't. 300 00:16:55,001 --> 00:16:58,732 He wants you for the softball game because he's trying to make our family look foolish. 301 00:16:58,838 --> 00:17:03,673 I knew you had bad ideas. All right, we'll play him. 302 00:17:03,777 --> 00:17:06,405 I'll throw that softball game. 303 00:17:06,513 --> 00:17:09,744 Nobody makes a fool of our family without my help. 304 00:17:16,122 --> 00:17:20,354 Tobias had talked up the name Fünke, and it was time to audition. 305 00:17:20,460 --> 00:17:23,190 - What's your name? - Tobias. 306 00:17:23,296 --> 00:17:25,321 He's too short. Give it to the guard. 307 00:17:25,432 --> 00:17:30,768 Oh. L- I'm not. L- On camera, I seem much taller. 308 00:17:30,870 --> 00:17:34,169 And Maeby picked up the reader's report, which had now become her book report. 309 00:17:34,274 --> 00:17:36,970 - Whatcha got there? - I can't really discuss it. 310 00:17:37,077 --> 00:17:39,477 If you wanna get it made, I'm the guy who has to see it. 311 00:17:39,579 --> 00:17:43,208 You're the Fünke everyone's talking about? What are you, like, 15? 312 00:17:43,316 --> 00:17:47,184 - Marry me. - Everyone thinks I look young too. 313 00:17:47,287 --> 00:17:50,279 - So who are you thinking about? - Jude Law. Why do you ask? 314 00:17:50,390 --> 00:17:52,858 Yeah. Go young. Young Guy and the Sea. Big spring-breaker. 315 00:17:52,959 --> 00:17:55,951 Four C.G.I. The fish. Let's fast-track this one. 316 00:17:56,062 --> 00:17:59,463 And that's when Maeby realized she had become a successful film executive. 317 00:17:59,566 --> 00:18:01,727 - It's all waxed up. - All waxed up? What do you mean? 318 00:18:01,835 --> 00:18:04,827 - I need something. Ajob for my dad. - Yeah, yeah. Sure. Okay. 319 00:18:04,938 --> 00:18:08,305 Listen to me. Brand new cars don't get waxed! 320 00:18:08,408 --> 00:18:10,876 That afternoon it was game time... 321 00:18:10,977 --> 00:18:13,468 and Michael felt confident about a Bluth win. 322 00:18:15,982 --> 00:18:18,212 Spin, spin, spin. 323 00:18:18,318 --> 00:18:23,051 Ann wasn't as amazing as George Michael led his father to believe. 324 00:18:24,124 --> 00:18:26,319 But Gob was playing worse than ever... 325 00:18:26,426 --> 00:18:29,327 as per his agreement with Michael. 326 00:18:36,769 --> 00:18:40,102 Your guy can't hit, Sitwell. He's never gonna touch it. 327 00:18:40,206 --> 00:18:42,265 - Time out. - Time out. 328 00:18:42,375 --> 00:18:44,502 Gob, are you okay? 329 00:18:44,611 --> 00:18:47,409 Yeah, just can't hit today. Guess you're really disappointed in me. 330 00:18:47,514 --> 00:18:50,677 Hey. Everybody has days like this. It's only a game. 331 00:18:50,783 --> 00:18:53,843 After that list of ideas you gave me, I don't care if you blow the whole season. 332 00:18:53,953 --> 00:18:56,683 Come here, you. 333 00:18:58,091 --> 00:18:59,854 Okay. We're good. 334 00:18:59,959 --> 00:19:03,918 And Gob finally felt that someone believed in him. 335 00:19:04,030 --> 00:19:07,693 Even though they weren't his ideas. 336 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,428 And he decided to make Sitwell proud. 337 00:19:13,573 --> 00:19:15,700 Get on that ball! 338 00:19:18,044 --> 00:19:20,535 You go! 339 00:19:20,647 --> 00:19:22,547 You better pull an ankle or something. 340 00:19:22,649 --> 00:19:24,549 Come on, George Michael! Get that ball in there! 341 00:19:24,651 --> 00:19:26,710 Then he went headfirst into The Wall. 342 00:19:26,819 --> 00:19:28,787 - I'm safe. - You're out! 343 00:19:28,888 --> 00:19:32,221 Out? I was safe! I'm safe! 344 00:19:32,325 --> 00:19:35,385 - Stop with the Tweety Bird dance, you moron. - Dad? 345 00:19:35,495 --> 00:19:37,827 He made the call. You're out. What are you doing? 346 00:19:37,931 --> 00:19:39,728 - Shush, shush, shush. - Dad? 347 00:19:39,832 --> 00:19:42,232 - He's safe. - What the hell are you doing here? 348 00:19:42,335 --> 00:19:45,429 I'm taking care of what you screwed up.
