‘I Lost on Jeopardy’

Season 6, Episode 21 -  Aired April 10, 2019

When a girl at school tells Barry she likes him, he lets a petty school rivalry get in the way. Meanwhile, Erica's big plan to end her dropout funk is to apply to game shows.

Quote from Barry

Andy: Then go ask the girl out! I dig her. We do Model UN together, and she's always fired up and yelling about some injustice in the world.
Naked Rob: Fired up and yelling? She's just like you, but pretty and a girl.
Matt: Take another shot at love, buddy!
Barry: No one wants your stupid yellow support, yellow Matt Bradley!
Matt: I'm here for you!
Barry: Get him!

Quote from Murray

Murray: Bevy! Happy anniversary!
Beverly: Oh, you remembered, even though it's the wrong day and month.
Murray: No, not that thing. One year ago today, we agreed to let Erica live at home to follow her dreams. Well, the year is up. Girl's gotta go!
Beverly: Are you that excited to toss away our sweet baby girl like some old, broken lawn chair?
Murray: Yes. It's time I crowbar'd that girl's butt off the couch and shipped her back off to college where she can get her life back together.

Quote from Beverly

Erica: Thank you for always being there for me.
Beverly: Always. The only way to learn to fly is to be pushed out of the nest and then have Mama carry you all the way down.

Quote from Geoff

Geoff: Oh, my God. Did your mom just convince you to-
Erica: Try out for "Jeopardy!"? You bet your cute little tush she did!
Geoff: I'm pretty sure she meant college, but I'm just psyched you think I have a cute tush.

Quote from Barry

Andy: The girl is a yellow?!
Barry: Kim's a honey trap. She's working for the yellow team to compromise the blue team's strongest, most handsome asset.
Naked Rob: You really think so?
Barry: The girl invited me to a movie about spies. How much more obvious could a spy be?!
Andy: That makes perfect sense.
Matt: [muffled] Or maybe Kim's a genuine, sincere person who really likes you!
Barry: Nice try, closet Matt Bradley!
Matt: All I'm saying is maybe you don't want to go out with Kim 'cause your heart still beats for Lainey.
Barry: Your yellow opinions are not welcome in this blue house. Blue JTP minus Matt Bradley!
All: Blue JTP minus Matt Bradley!
Matt: Whoo! [thud] Aah! I hate Color Day!

Quote from Murray

Murray: Game shows?!
Beverly: Just calm down. Trust me. Erica will find that college is the only answer when she can't get on to any of these silly shows.
Murray: You mean game shows?
Beverly: Stop saying "game shows." It's fine. Mama will fix this.
[cut to:]
Erica: Oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God! "Jeopardy!" just called, and they want me to come in for an interview!
Beverly: Yeah, Mama didn't fix it.

Quote from Murray

Erica: Hey, I'm in training here!
Murray: Don't care. This ends now. Welcome to Dad fixing your life.
Erica: Hello? Did you not hear about my super-well-thought-out game-show plan?
Murray: Well, here's my plan. Step one, get off your butt. Step two, go to college. Plan over. Fixed.
Beverly: Murray, I told you not to mix in. I'm handling it.
Erica: There you go, Mom. Control your man.
Murray: Please just do step one! Get off my couch!

Quote from Erica

Beverly: I think what Daddy's trying to say is, um, maybe "Jeopardy!" isn't actually doing something with your life.
Erica: Duh. I know I can't only live off winning "Jeopardy!" That's why I have a whole plan worked out.
Beverly: [chuckling] Oh, thank you, Lord! She has a plan, Murray! What is your plan? Tell us your plan.
Erica: Your firstborn baby is going to be a professional game-show contestant.
Beverly: [silence] Professional what now?
Erica: Starting now, I'm gonna do game shows full time.
Beverly: That's not a plan, Erica!
Erica: Whoa! Where is this coming from? This whole thing was your idea.
Beverly: When I called you my little genius, I meant go to college.
Erica: Oh, so it's like that, huh?
Beverly: It's not "like that", it is that.

Quote from Adam

Adam: Hello. I have some unfortunate news regarding your forthcoming movie date with Barry Goldberg.
Kim: Oh, no. Is he not coming?
Adam: The answers to your questions are all in this secret message he asked me to smuggle to you somewhere inside of myself. But, yeah, I didn't do that, so here.
Kim: "Dear Kim, Clearly your interest in me is a mere ploy to keep me from leading the blue team to Color Day victory. Your sinister plan has failed. Eat blue farts, witch." Is this a joke?
Adam: Sadly, it's more of a blunt rejection contained in a wildly paranoid and hostile letter.
Kim: "Yellow is only good for one thing, being on bananas. Ha ha ha. You suck. Fondly, Barry."
Adam: If you wouldn't mind, I'm gonna need the note back. Barry insisted that I eat it.

Quote from Matt

Matt: Um, Bar, it's pretty clear you're just pushing Kim away with crazy conspiracies 'cause you're still not over Lainey.
Barry: Stop trying to get inside my head, mortal enemy Matt Bradley! Just go back to eating lunch with your yellow best friends.
Matt: They're not my best friends. They're sixth graders.
