The One Where They Build a House

Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Due to Michael’s continuing legal troubles, Gob agrees to be the company figurehead while Michael pulls the strings, an arrangement which, of course, ends up driving Michael completely crazy when Gob’s showmanship and ludicrous ideas impress the board. Meanwhile, the mistaken identities continue when George Sr. is arrested in Mexico for a crime that Oscar committed, and Oscar takes George Sr.’s place in a way no one could have predicted.

Our Take

A standout hour — the kind of episode that justifies the whole series. Arrested Development at the top of its game.
