Quote from The One Where Michael Leaves

Barry: Where you going?
George Michael: We can't tell you.
Michael: No, no. We can tell Barry. We're going to Phoenix.
Barry: Oh, I wish you hadn't have said that. As your lawyer, I have to inform you you cannot leave the state. With your father gone, they want to hold you.
Michael: M-Me?
Barry: They're going to indict you tomorrow. All you have to do is come up with the bail. Take it out of the business.
Michael: But I- I can't. I quit. I don't want to follow in my father's footsteps.
Barry: Then you might wind up on his cot. Oh, man, I wish you hadn't said Phoenix.
