Episode Summary & Review
Summary
The Bluths are worried that Lucille 2 is making a deal to sell the company, so George Sr. suggests calling an old family friend, Uncle Jack, for help. But when creepy Uncle Jack agrees to come to their aid only if he gets a date with Lindsay, Michael must come up with a plan to distract Tobias. Meanwhile, Gob and Buster team up to find out what Lucille 2 is up to and end up fighting over her.
Our Take
A weird, uncomfortable episode that leans hard on Uncle Jack’s creepiness for laughs, and it mostly works because the show commits fully to how gross it all is. Martin Short goes for broke in the role, which will either delight you or exhaust you. The Gob and Buster rivalry over Lucille 2 is the stronger storyline though. Worth a watch.
