Top Banana

I am having a love affair with this ice cream sandwich. Want some? You wanna take a bite? Take a bite.

No touching!

I haven't had a vacation in years. This is my vacation. I'm exercising. I'm sleeping well. You're doing time. I'm doing the time of my life!

He's a flamer.

Because he's a flamer? I told you that in confidence.

Okay, we are just about ass to ankles back here, Maeby. Do you wanna hop on your cousin's lap there, please?

Whoa, bumpy road ahead.

Welcome aboard, Mr. Manager. Wow! I'm Mr. Manager! Well, manager. We just say 'manager.'

Don't look at me, Mr. Manager. Right. It's up to me now. I'm Mr. Manager. Manager. We just say... I know, but you just... It doesn't matter who.

I don't know what I expected.

The only thing I found in the freezer was a dead dove in a bag. You didn't eat that, did you? 'Cause I've only got a couple days left to return it.

Died right in the middle of a show. Do you want a cage for that? No. I'm a magician.

You spent $68 on hair conditioner? A small price to pay for self-esteem, Michael. Or are you still jealous that you lost Best Hair to me in high school and got Dorkiest?

I mean, look at me. I'm an actor. An actor, for crying out loud! You know how much rejection I face every day?

But you've never actually had an audition. Well... excuse me!

Yeah. Shoot me when that happens. Is there a carbon monoxide leak in this house?

You stay on top of her, buddy. Do not be afraid to ride her. Hard.

I can't tell you how many health codes you're violating right now. I can't believe I volunteered for this. This is my stupidest rebellion ever.

Easy. Banana. Buck. Banana. Take a buck.

Then why don't you marry an ice cream sandwich?

You know, it's really more believable if you let me finish.

Something with 'Dale.' I don't know. Brookfeather. Raintree. It's hot. It's very hot there. I've never been. Get a warrant!

Luz, that coat cost more than your house! Oh, that's how we joke. She doesn't even have a house.

Oh, look at all these parts!

Oh, look at all these parts!

Am I panicked about the fire, or am I being brave for everyone else? The fire... It's... It's a fire sale. Oh. Oh. Okay, I didn't, um... Well, let's give it a shot.

Oh, my God! We're having a fire... sale. Oh, the burning! It burns me! Evacuate all the schoolchildren! This isn't a fever! I can't even see where the knob is!

Would you like to try that a little simpler maybe? No.

Somebody wanted this place to go. Yeah? What do you mean, arson? Oh, definitely the work of a flamer.

I think I made the fire too real for them and probably failed to highlight the sale.

Well, that's great, but I've got my own problems. The flight records? They burned up. That's fine. That's over with. But I think Dad is behind it.

But you don't have a job. You've got a job offer. Anybody can get a job offer.

I can't trust a mailman with this. This is important.

The banana stand! You know, that's exactly what this feels like. Huh? Like I'm still stuck in that hot booth all summer with you pulling the strings.

We throw away a banana for every buck we take so no one finds out. Wait a minute. I think you should do that math again. Why? Is it wrong? It's fine. He's an arsonist, not an embezzler.

Gob had not mailed the letter, but, in an act of defiance... dramatically hurled the letter into the sea. This proved a more difficult dramatic gesture than he'd anticipated.

You want your belt to buckle, not your chair.

Oh, my God, you're right. I am? Oh, God, I've screwed this up! Okay, we gotta go.

Pop-pop, he's a business man. What would he do? Bananas Foster.

That's funny, 'cause I was gonna say, 'You might wanna lean away from that fire... since you're soaked in alcohol.' Mine was better.

Welcome to Bluth Bananas, where bananas are our business. May I interest you in a banana this day?

Michael, having a nice day at the beach while the rest of us are busting our asses to deliver your mail?

Better than being treated like the goofball... the joker, the magician. I thought you were gonna do, like, a trick there. A fireball or something. I was. It didn't go off. These things never go off when you want them to. My least consistent trick.

I was just, uh... I was burning down the banana stand.

I was just, uh... I was burning down the banana stand. What? I'm sorry. I screwed it all up. I've got no right to call myself Mr. Manager. Manager.

Burn it down. What? Let's burn this son of a bitch.

You mailed that insurance check, right, Gob?

There was $250,000 lining the walls of the banana stand. What? Cash, Michael. Why didn't you tell me that? How much clearer can I say... 'There's always money in the banana stand'?

How much clearer can I say 'There's always money in the banana stand'?

No touching! No touching! No touching!

Return from whence you came!

You couldn't have called me? I can't swing a hammer? I got a rabbit to buy.
