Gob Quote #229

Quote from Gob in For British Eyes Only

Lucille: What the hell is this?!
Gob: Huh? Well, now that Dad's back, I'm going to perform one grand illusion for him before he strangles himself with his belt.
Michael: No, no, turns out, they're into that.
Gob: Oh. Well, check it. The illusion is called "Free Bird". A magical bird - me in a beak - stands on a platform. There's a puff of smoke, and then I'm gone. Then seconds later, high above in a once-empty cage who should appear?
Lucille: A guy that kind of looks like you?
Gob: No. That's not how I do the trick. Even it was, how'd the look-alike get up there?
Michael: He was hiding behind this mirror here?
Gob: No! For your information, Dad asked me to do this on the day he pleads not guilty as a spectacular protest. A protestacular. Maybe even get it on the local news.

Quote from George Sr.

George Sr.: You got to get me out of here.
Michael: You're the one that said no to prison.
George Sr.: I was wrong. There, you just have it to shut your eyes and take it. Here, you have shut your eyes and give it. Now, listen, we can't go in there and plead "not guilty". We have to have someone big behind us, our own private Matlock. So I made calls and I got him.
Michael: Got who?
George Sr.: Andy Griffith. What, you never saw Matlock?
Michael: Not a real attorney, Dad.
George Sr.: Now, for ten grand, he'll actually sit behind us in court and read the paper. For 15, he'll actually sit at the defense table. For $20,000, he'll twice lean forward and whisper something in your ear. Oh. White suit, that's extra.
Michael: Boy, that's an awful lot of money for the stupidest idea I've ever heard.
George Sr.: The juries love him.

Quote from Lindsay

Michael: Lot of that was the coma.
Lindsay: Yeah, I've heard your side of it.

Quote from Buster
