‘Livin' on a Prayer’
Season 1, Episode 23 - Aired May 13, 2014
When Murray's high school free throw record is broken, his old school invites him to attend a game as a guest of honor. After Beverly eventually talks a reluctant Murray into attending the banquet, he actually starts to enjoy reliving his glory days, until the crowd turns on him after an embarrassing basketball shot. Back at the Goldberg house, Barry tries to throw a house party to finally make a name for himself in high school. When the party looks to be a bust, Erica calls her friends to turn it around, but Barry soon realizes nobody at his epic party even knows who he is.
Quote from Barry
Lainey: What's shaking, Gustav?
Barry: [scoffs] I wish I was Gustav. Except for that weird fish lunch he always brings.
Quote from Beverly
Beverly: Murray. Oh, my God. They're wearing my sweaters!
Barry: No, those aren't yours. It's a look that's happening. Watch MTV!
Beverly: Yeah, I'm sure all the young boys are wearing leopard sweaters. Hey, that's my leopard!
Quote from Beverly
Barry: Clearly, you're gonna kill me, and-
Murray: Yes. Yes, I am!
Beverly: Do it, Murray. Do it with your hands.
Quote from Barry
Barry: I'm nothing like you, dad. I don't dominate in high school. I don't hold sports records. People only know me 'cause I get angry at pudding. Listen, you've had your glory days, and they sounded awesome. But this, in there, this is the best I'm ever gonna do.
Quote from Beverly
Beverly: Oh, Boopie. That's so sad. But you are in so much trouble. But aww!
Quote from Murray
Barry: I'm begging you. This is my moment. All I'm asking for is seven more hours of nonstop partying.
Beverly: Absolutely not.
Murray: You got 10 minutes.
Barry: Seriously?
Murray: Yeah, but do me a favor. Make this a night you'll always remember.
Barry: You are the greatest father on this planet.
Quote from Murray
Beverly: Awful parenting choice. Just awful.
Murray: You've seen him run. He needs this.
Quote from Beverly
Nitrous: What a night! So, you got any OJ?
Beverly: Sorry, what the hell are you doing here?
Nitrous: Passed out in the basement during the party.
Beverly: Take off my sweater and get out.
Nitrous: What's in it for me?
Beverly: Nothing. It's my sweater.
Nitrous: Fine. Show me your boobs.
Beverly: No.
Nitrous: Then give me $1 million.
Beverly: No.
Nitrous: I'd very much like to revisit the boob conversation.
Beverly: I feel like we've done this once before.
Nitrous: Did it end in boobs?
Beverly: No. Tell me something. When was the last time you had a balanced breakfast?
Nitrous: Every day. Protein from beef jerky, energy from frosting.
Beverly: Sweetie, sit down. I'm gonna make you some food, you're gonna eat it, then you're gonna take off my sweater and get the hell out.
Quote from Murray
Erica: Is this for real? I mean, we've never even seen you touch a basketball.
Barry: Yeah, I mean, I can't believe this. It's one of my dreams to play in the NBA, and you never once mentioned it?
Murray: Didn't see how it was relevant.
Quote from Lainey
Erica: Swing and a miss.
Lainey: Aw, you love her, and she thinks you're from Sweden.
