If we could only see him now…
0A Protest-tacular!
Tobias: Excuse me, I was just looking for a marker. A magic-marker… leaves room.
Michael: You know Gob, instead of trying to impress a father that couldn’t care less about you, why don’t you try spending some time with your son who is dying to connect with you.
Gob: Hey, he’s the one who can’t see me.
Michael: Why? Because you were too busy hiding in your trick?
Tobias: [acting as Gob] Illusion, Michael. I so very much would like to be in your prostate-ticular… As your look alike! [bows]
Gob: Right, they’re gonna see the ink. It’s more of a leading man role, but it’s not really done that way.
Tobias: Huh, I guess I shouldn’t have used a permanent marker.
0This is Ripe for Parody
Lindsay: No, how would you like it? Actually, that’s not a bad idea. I should turn the tables on men and see how they like being objectified. Men with low self-esteem. Get their clothes off.
Tobias: That is a great social statement. I shall get the video camera. This is ripe for parody. This is ripe!
Buster: He just wants to see boys’ Linuses…

0Perhaps an Attic Shall I Seek

Narrator: Real shoddy narrating. Just pure crap.
0Crying in the Shower
Narrator: On the next Arrested Development, Tobias gets a review of his Shakespeare play.
Tobias: I didn’t get into this business to please sophomore Tracy Schwartzman, so… onward and upward. On…
… [Cut to Tobias crying in the shower] Why, Tracy? Why?
0I’ve Always Wanted to Remake Annie Hall.
Michael: You don’t want to end up like Uncle Oscar, okay- living off handouts your whole life. Why don’t you come up with a way to make money? A suggestion of something to invest in, or maybe a business idea.
Tobias: Well, I’ve always wanted to remake Annie Hall. Except, I wouldn’t want to get in bed with a green producer like a Sofia Coppola though. Oh, but give me an old pro like a Robert Redford. Oh, I’d jump into bed with him in a second. And I wouldn’t just lie there, Michael Bluth, if that’s what you’re thinking.
Michael: Actually, that time, that was what I was thinking.
0Say Something That Will Terrify Me
[ Tobias is rehearsing his "frightened inmate #2" character ]
Tobias: Say something that will terrify me.
Lindsay: Fuck me.
Lindsay Bluth: Slut
Tobias: No, that didn’t do it.
+4The Last Cop You’ll Ever Want to Mess With
Tobias: [reading a script with terrible acting] “I don’t know what you heard about me, but I’m a different kind of cop. I’m from the streets, and I’m the last cop you’ll ever want to mess with in a darkened al – dark alley
[drops the act]
Tobias: Oh, you know, maybe my wife is right. I’m not cut out to be a DeNiro, or a Regis, or a Pinkett-Smith. I shou…
Carl Weathers: Whoa, whoa, whoa, Tobias, listen to me. Dreams are worth fighting for. Now, are you gonna be an actor, or are you gonna be a doctor?
Tobias: You’re right, Carl Weathers! I should just march into that restaurant where my wife works and…
Carl Weathers: Whoa, your wife works in a restaurant? Do they get free shift meals or a discount on select menu items?
Tobias Fünke: Uh, I don’t know.
Carl Weathers: Well, let’s find out, man!
