Michael Quote #128
Quote from Michael in Let 'Em Eat Cake
Narrator: And at that moment, he was determined to finally get as far away from his family as possible.
Michael: Hey, pal. Pack your bags.
George Michael: Where are we goin'?
Michael: Anywhere. Joshua Tree, space camp, the Baseball Hall of Fame... Everything you and I have always wanted to do but haven't been able to because of this family.
George Michael: We're just gonna go?
Michael: Yeah. And I don't know if we're even gonna come back. There's nothing keeping us here.
George Michael: Well, Dad, I like it here.
Michael: What the hell's going on with you lately? I wanted to watch Hindsight, and you weren't there. I want to pack up and desert the family, and you don't want to. Is it this new girlfriend?
George Michael: No, it- It's because of the family. I like the family. I mean, if we leave, who's gonna take care of these people?
Michael: I don't know. The state or the police. Maybe the Magicians' Alliance will pick up some slack.

Quote from Gob
Gob: Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the first born. Sick of playing second fiddle. Always third in line for everything. Tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about and I'm taking over.
Michael: You want to be in charge?
Gob: Yeah.
Michael: You want to deal with what I deal with a sister who takes your money and throws it away; a mother who you can't trust; a company whose founder may be on trial for treason- Is that what you want?
Gob: What kind of vacation time does it offer?
Michael: Yeah.
Quote from Gob
Michael: Gob, shouldn't you be in bed?
Gob: Well, we got a meeting with Dad's attorney today. He's gonna want me to take a lie-detector test to use as evidence in Dad's trial, but, uh, I don't want to. What if they ask about a magic trick? I just I can't risk it.
Michael: They're not gonna ask you anything. They want me to take the polygraph test.
Gob: But I'm the oldest. The matriarch, if you will.
Michael: Sure. I will.
