Ron Howard: Narrator

Quotes 

• Narrator : And Michael went to investigate his mystery sister.

  Lucille : Michael! What a surprise!

  Michael Bluth : Really? Were you expecting someone else? Maybe one of your... two daughters?

  Lucille : Oh Lindsay and Tobias never visit.

  [laughs] 

  Lucille : Oh we're so bad.

  Michael Bluth : I meant Lindsay and Nellie.

  Lucille : You call him that too? It's so great to be able to talk like this!

• Michael : What's all this?

  George Sr. : Computer stuff from the office.

  Michael : No, no, no, no, pop. You're not doing another one of those Black Fridays, are you? The mass firings?

  Narrator : Before firing his employees, George Sr. would be sure to clear the office of its valuables.

  Ted : So when do we get to see our fancy new offices?

  George Sr. : [closing the truck door]  When you get your fancy new jobs. You're all fired.

  Narrator : The employees never saw it coming, although their first task was to unload their equipment from a truck.

  George Sr. : No, it's not black Friday although I did enjoy those.

• Narrator : George Michael was interested in the subject of marital love because earlier that day, he discovered that the recent mock wedding he had acted in with his cousin was in fact as real and binding as the rice pudding the disoriented patients had thrown at them.

• Nellie Bluth : [Michael finishes a long-winded boring, story]  Wow, what a great story.

  Narrator : It wasn't great. Nellie was just a good listener. All prostitutes are.
