Quote from Buster
Narrator: Buster, meanwhile, received an unexpected visitor.
Oscar: I want you to know that it's okay for you to hide. A man can hide. There's a quiet courage in that.
Buster: You're a good uncle.
Oscar: I'm not your uncle. I'm your father.
Buster: What?
Oscar: Shh. Shh. Quiet courage. Quiet courage. Hide.
Quote from Buster
Narrator: But Buster was confused.
Buster: You lied to me. Uncle Oscar's my father. He just told me so. And maybe you're not even my real mother. For all I know, Lucille 2 is my real mother.
Lucille: Oh! Buster, you were never supposed to know.
Buster: Oh, yeah? Well, here's something you should know. I'm going to war!
Quote from Tobias
Narrator: Lindsay and Tobias were gathering evidence that Maggie was truly pregnant. And they were having fun doing it.
Lindsay: That's the first time we were in the shower since our honeymoon.
Tobias: And this time, no tears.
Quote from Michael
Maggie Lizer: Sally Sitwell? You know, I think I had her little play oven.
Michael: Yeah, I know. It's a funny name. But she's a doll.
Maggie Lizer: Yeah, I had one. If you pull her hair, she'd cry or something.
Michael: This one kinda does that too.
Quote from Michael
Maggie Lizer: Hey, so what's the deal on Zuckerkorn? 'Cause you know my fat case, it's really pretty thin.
Michael: [stops listening to message] Lying, untrustworthy...
Maggie Lizer: Yeah. Plus, I heard he hangs out at rest stops.
Michael: No, no. I'm talkin' about you, Maggie. I don't know why I'm surprised. I shouldn't be. You're a liar. You lie.
Maggie Lizer: Well, I mean, I heard he hangs out at rest stops.
Michael: Okay- And I keep buying it too. And so maybe there is something wrong with me. I thought we were startin' to trust each other. I got a message from my sister saying there's a box at your house with a fat suit in it. What have you got? A different one for each trimester?
Maggie Lizer: You had your sister break into my house?
Michael: Which one are you wearing right now? Is this the ready-to-burst model? Now, there's zero trust here. Good-bye. It's been fun... not.
Narrator: Michael had hoped something more dramatic would have come out of his mouth. Or at least more current.
Maggie Lizer: Oh, you're so right, Michael. I really can't be trusted. 'Cause I'm fakin' it... [reveals baby bump] not.
Tobias: [enters] Hello, Michael. Well, my wife and I finally had the thrill of seeing a plus sign on a pregnancy test.
Lindsay: You're gonna be a daddy!
