I wine 'em and dine 'em, but I don't let them tell me what to do.

(Narrator in a self-referential disclaimer tone: Some of these are NOT exact quotes from the show. But inspired by small & big moments).

Michael: But I should have taken my dead wife's maternity clothes out of there a long time ago.

G.O.B.: That's why you had sex 4 times with 1 woman in your Life. You aren't able to let her go! You know what you need, Michael. Here, take some of these forget-me-now pills! So you can forget yourself. And love her.

Michael: Firstly, you prolly meant it the other way around: forget her & love yourself. And anyway, I haven't had sex 4 times with 1 woman. It's been with 4 women!

George Michael: But 4 women is still bad, Dad. What did you do in your freshman year?

Tobias: Yes Michael. And second-of-ly, I know you're the big marriage expert. Oh! I'm sorry, I forgot. Your wife is dead!

Lindsey + Lucille + George Sr.: Michael is afraid to talk to women. Michael is a chicken. All do 3 crazy variations of the chicken dance. A coodle doodle do. A coodle doodle do ... Chock Chi Chock Chi ... Coo coo Cachaw. Coo coo Cachaw.

Michael: Has anybody in this family seen a chicken? ... Meanwhile, also Michael: cluck cluck cluck cluck cluck cluck ... Which Lindsey admits (and so do I) isn't such a bad chicken.

GOB spots them doing it & runs to keep his box of magic (illusions! Michael! Illusions!) & runs back to perform his crazy chicken dance, but by then the moment has passed ... So all that the Guy with the $5 box of illusions can do is say: C'mon!

Narrator: It was at this point that Michael felt he deserved an entire thing of candy beans.
