Quote from Buster

Narrator: But onstage, it was Gob's face that was at risk.
Buster: Don't use the sledgehammer.
Tony Wonder: Get him out of there. Did somebody say... Wonder?
Gob: [appears] I wonder if Gob is still alive!
Narrator: He was, and as straight as he'd ever been.
Buster: And I missed my cue. And I missed my cue.

Quote from George Sr.

Gob: It's just sad because we also don't have the wall. It would have been so nice to be super rich again, you know?
George Sr.: Oh, nobody's gonna build a wall. According to the succeeding New York Times, Donald Trump doesn't even have a a chance of winning that election.
Lucille: Oh, I don't know, don't count out his likability.

Quote from Maeby

Maeby: Why is everybody so scared? Oh, hi, Uncle Buster.

Quote from Lindsay

Tobias: We were just speculating as to where Lucille 2 ended up. Uh, we assumed she'd be here to protest.
Maeby: Well, maybe there's a surprise under one of these burqas.
Lucille: You have got to be kidding. Well, it's about time you showed your face, after what you've done to our family, you-
Lindsay: Hi.
Tobias: Wait, so, at the protest earlier, that was you kicking me...
Both: ...in the balls.
Tobias: Yeah, your mother was kicking me in the balls.

Quote from Buster

Lucille: I thought you left to find your real mother.
Lindsay: She's dead. Buster pushed her down some stairs.
Buster: Oh, my God. Lucille 2 is your mother?
Lindsay: Mimi. Not Lucille 2.
Buster: Oh, right. That is who I pushed down the stairs.
George Sr.: Hey, hey, hey.
Buster: Well, I just- I just put my- How often do you get to do that when you're holding one of these?
Maeby: I showed her the rest of the Ron Howard series.

Quote from Lindsay

Lindsay: Okay, but on the other hand, you hid this ugly secret from me so I wouldn't know my mother deserted me. So, you were a critical, difficult mother, but I gotta be honest, Lucy, you're an amazing sister!
Lucille: Half-sister.
Tobias: I'm wondering if this means that you will, uh, perhaps be willing to take me back.
Lindsay: We're a family.
Narrator: Maeby really wanted to roll her eyes, but not as much as she wanted the hug.
George Sr.: Wow. Family of the year.
Gob: The mother[bleep] year!
George Sr.: Huh? Nothing breaks us apart.

Quote from Gob

Gob: Hey, what happened to Michael and George Michael? It's like they never showed up.
George Sr.: Where the hell are they going?
Lucille: They're probably pulling the car around.
Maeby: Actually, I think they might be ready to move on.
Gob: [scoffs] Right.
Lucille: Michael always comes back.
Tobias: Yeah. He thinks he has to "bring us together."
Gob: Oh, Michael is such a zero.
Buster: Oh, he'll be back. [chuckles] Michael always comes back.
Gob: Oh, he'll be back. Especially after something goes horribly wrong, based on something stupid we did. I mean, this... [chuckles] He'll be God, Michael.
George Sr.: No, no. I don't think anything's gonna go horribly wrong for a long, long ti-
