Quote from Gob in Saving for Arraignment Day
Michael: The wall's gonna be fine. Gob's on it. And I don't want George Michael feeling guilty about the firing, so I told Gob, when it comes to the foot, that mum's the word. Narrator: Although "clear" might've been an overstatement. [flashback:] Gob: It was a great move to get rid of your dad. Can't let fear run a business. George Michael: How do you mean, fear? Gob: Well, you get sent one severed foot from the Chinese, and, all of a sudden, you turn into a crybaby. George Michael: The Chinese sent my dad a severed human foot? Gob: Yeah. Although they call it a "mum." Mum's the word for "severed human foot" in Chinese. I don't even know how I know that. But it's to ensure that he finishes building the wall or whatever. It's like, you know what? Like, call me after you've been lured down to a rock quarry, and someone threatens to ruin your magic career if you go to gay conversion therapy, and it works. [chuckles] I mean, seriously, call me after that, because I'd be curious to see how how you'd handle it.
