Michael Quote #465

Quote from Michael in Emotional Baggage

Michael: Okay, so then you might understand why we don't want a movie about it.
Ron Howard: Well, absolutely. You'd have to cut too much. This has true crime limited series written all over it. That way, my Rebel could be in it, too. She's no Bryce, but she's like a robot. Gives the exact same performance every take. Real time-saver. So, yes, let's do this.
Michael: Here's the thing, Ron. Right now, my family is not looking for publicity.
Ron Howard: Well, the other way to look at it is if I heard about it, it's out there. Best way to manage press is to get in front of it.
Reed Howard: Hey, Dad. We need you for the three-legged race. Also, can you start the music?
Ron Howard: I don't know how to, Reed.
Michael: Oh. I must've heard that. I must've heard that. Right? Sure. That, uh so you get -Do you get the scripts read to you?
Ron Howard: Uh, this is my son, Reed.
Reed Howard: My dad knows how to read.

Quote from Gob

Gob: [laughs] Did you catch this? Man, that's priceless. First, you eat it with Buster, then you step in it with the movie, and now you're eating what you stepped in, because Kitty hates you. Guess Michael's the geo-bead today.
Michael: Did you say "geo-bead"?
Gob: Yeah, it's one of Dad's expressions- You know, when somebody screws up, that Dad always said it. One of his "you'll figure it out someday" expressions. You're lucky, 'cause Kitty's sweet on me, so I'll go with you.
Michael: No, thank you. Nope.
Tobias: I could go. Or just- Would that be helpful if I did? Or am I just being a G-O-B?
