Lucille: That's right. Because when we sell Fakeblock, we give the money right back to the Chinese before they get angrier.

George Sr.: They're- They're threatening our feet?
Michael: You don't think these Chinese would first try to, I don't know, ding your credit rating?

Quote from Tobias

Lucille: Actually, I was 37.
Tobias: Well, no one would believe that.
Lucille: You're hired.
Michael: No, you're not.
Quote from Tobias

Gob: Yeah, Dad, nail his ass.
Tobias: [chuckles] I'll pile on to nailing that ass, Dad.
