‘Best Man for the Gob’

Season 1, Episode 19 -  Aired April 4, 2004

George Sr. talks Gob into having a bachelor party following his recent nuptials, but it's just a rouse to stop the company's accountant from testifying. Meanwhile, Michael tries to prove he does have a fun side.

Quote from George Michael

George Michael: It's just, um... I mean, this is really fun and everything...
Michael: This isn't even the fun part. Tomorrow.
George Michael: Yeah. The problem I'm having is, uh... I have a pretty finely tuned internal clock...
Michael: Mm-hmm.
George Michael: ...which is why I'm actually such a good natural percussionist. And, um... I'm just worried that I'm not gonna be able to fall asleep for another two hours and 45 minutes. So, I was thinking maybe I would go down and check out Maeby's band and you could go see if Gob's bachelor party has started.
Michael: Shh, shh, shh. I'm right where I want to be. Gob had his chance to have me there. But if you're sure that you can't sleep...
George Michael: Well, it's just I don't know when I'm gonna get another chance like this. You know, to be there for family. I'd hate to miss it, because I was too proud.
Michael: Right. Wait a minute. "Too proud?" What does this have to do with "too proud?"
George Michael: Actually, that part was kinda just for you. I was just worried the whole thing wasn't gonna land unless I included the pride part.

Gob: Ira, take my honeymoon tickets. Get out of the country. Save yourself.

Quote from Gob

Gob: What does it matter? I screwed it up anyway. A complete failure. Can't even fake the death of a stripper.
Michael: Oh, come on. That's not a bad thing. It doesn't make you a failure. Dad's the failure.
Gob: Really? When he was my age, he ran an entire company, had kids.
Michael: The company was corrupt. Look what he's trying to do to us. And I'll tell you something else. You might not be a father, you know, Gob, but you are my brother.
Gob: I might be a father.
