[edit] Episode Notes

[edit] Added Scenes
- After waking up with George Michael in the model home, Michael mentions how his father calls him "pardner" and how he is going through a "cowboy phase."
- There is an added scene after Michael and George Michael eat breakfast, where they mention that their relatives are spoiled and, when a couple walk in to look at the model home, praise it to advertise it.
- There is a scene where GOB takes a twenty dollar bill from George Michael and makes it "disappear" in a magic trick when he is working at the banana stand.
- After GOB responds, in front of children, that "A trick is something a whore does for money", he erroneously backpedals by saying "Or cocaine." In the original version of the pilot, he said "Or candy."
- In Buster's introduction, Michael says "Hasn't everything sorta been discovered though, by like Magellan, Cortés, NASA" In the original version of the pilot, he doesn't say "NASA" but says "all those folks" instead.
- In Maeby's introduction, there is a scene about her unique ways of rebelling against her mother, where Lindsay wants to get her a tattoo, so Maeby decides to enter beauty pageants.
- In a conversation between George Michael and Maeby, where Maeby asks why George Michael works so much. George Michael says something (that his father probably told him) about a lack of work ethic, but is unable to explain what he means.
- There is extra conversation in Michael's intervention.
- There is some extra conversation when Michael visits George Sr.
- When the Bluths are playing Monopoly at the end of the episode, Tobias says "How are you?" again.
