Storming The Castle

Episode Guide:

Michael breaks a chair and he considers getting a piece of nice leather furniture on the company's dime. His son is concerned because George Sr's embezzlement started with minor purchases like this. Michael lies to Marta about Gob's wherabouts when she stops by unexpectedly, covering for his brother.

Speaking of Gob, it's while Michael is walking down the street that he receives a threat on his brother's behalf. A thug street magician wants to remove Gob's legs for messing about with the woman who plays the legs in his "Saw The Woman In Half" trick. Outraged that his brother is cheating on the, frankly, wonderful Marta, Michael decides to confront his brother.

LIndsay announces that she's against leather, promptly causing Maebe to go out and buy an all leather outfit. Her father, who took her shopping, also procured a leather outfit for himself.

Marta comes by Michael's office later where he discovers that Marta was wooed by Gob's using Michael's own words about her. Lucille and Buster go to visit George Sr so he can tell his son to knock it off with Lucille 2, only to find out that he's now a practicing Jew. Much to Lucille's disappointment, he blesses the union of his youngest son and the 60-something across the hall.
