<p>One day! 24 hours! 1440 minutes! Can you believe it? The new, ridiculously highly-anticipated season of Arrested Development will be <a href="https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/05/24/arrested-development-preview-four-new-clips_n_3332159.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">released (in its entirety) on Sunday</a>. Just in case you haven&#8217;t already re-watched every episode (multiple times) in preparation of this monumental occasion, here&#8217;s a quick recap of facts we learned about our favorite dysfunctional family at the end of the last season to get you all caught up.</p>
<h2>Lindsey was Adopted; is 40.</h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://bensbargains.net/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/lindsay.png"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4378" alt="Lindsey Bluth " src="https://bensbargains.net/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/lindsay.png" loading="lazy" width="822" height="617" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/lindsay.png 822w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/lindsay-300x225.png 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 822px) 100vw, 822px" /></a></p>
<p>While Lindsay is quite glad and relieved to hear she&#8217;s not actually a Bluth, she is <em>not</em> happy to learn that she&#8217;s 40 years old (not the 37 she had thought). When she tries to get with Michael (because now he&#8217;s not her biological brother and all), he tells her he&#8217;s &#8220;not that into older women.&#8221; Ouch.</p>
<h2>Maeby and George Michael are not &#8220;Real&#8221; Cousins.</h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://bensbargains.net/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/arrestedwedding.png"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-4379" alt="Maeby and George Michael Wedding" src="https://bensbargains.net/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/arrestedwedding-1024x640.png" loading="lazy" width="620" height="387" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/arrestedwedding-1024x640.png 1024w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/arrestedwedding-300x187.png 300w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/arrestedwedding.png 1152w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px" /></a></p>
<p>Good thing, because they made it to &#8220;second base&#8221; a few episodes prior. Oh yeah, and they&#8217;re also married (they thought they were participating in a fake wedding* to entertain Alzheimers patients, but turns out it was a legal ceremony). *I looked for a clip of their wedding on Youtube but could only find George Michael/Maeby Funke &#8220;tribute videos.&#8221; Here&#8217;s one titled <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMxHh9JMVhA" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Call Me Maeby</a>.</p>
<h2>Gob is Dating Ann.</h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://bensbargains.net/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.17.34-PM.png"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-4383" alt="George Michael punching Gob" src="https://bensbargains.net/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.17.34-PM-1024x568.png" loading="lazy" width="620" height="343" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.17.34-PM-1024x568.png 1024w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.17.34-PM-300x166.png 300w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.17.34-PM.png 1262w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px" /></a></p>
<p>Apparently he found her <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spfGSbZTDbM" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">funny or something</a>. George Michael finds out, <a href="https://images2.fanpop.com/images/photos/3600000/AD-Animated-gif-arrested-development-3695362-320-232.gif" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">punches Gob in the face</a> and sails away on his uncle&#8217;s yacht (named &#8220;The C-Word,&#8221; of course).</p>
<h2>George Sr. is Cleared of Everything.</h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://bensbargains.net/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/georgesr.png"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-4385" alt="George Sr. in prision" src="https://bensbargains.net/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/georgesr-1024x576.png" loading="lazy" width="620" height="348" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/georgesr-1024x576.png 1024w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/georgesr-300x168.png 300w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/georgesr.png 1440w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px" /></a></p>
<p>Turns out George Sr. was actually helping the CIA <em>spy</em> on Saddam Hussein, not working with him. The Bluth Company has a big party aboard <a href="https://arresteddevelopment.wikia.com/wiki/RMS_Queen_Mary" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">The Queen Mary</a> to celebrate his exoneration.</p>
<h2>Lucille is About to be Arrested Instead.</h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://bensbargains.net/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.27.22-PM.png"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4386" alt="Lucille Bluth escaping in the Queen Mary" src="https://bensbargains.net/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.27.22-PM.png" loading="lazy" width="827" height="532" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.27.22-PM.png 827w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.27.22-PM-300x192.png 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 827px) 100vw, 827px" /></a></p>
<p>We learn it was actually <em>Lucille</em> who was the mastermind behind the Bluth Company and all its crimes. Thanks to <a href="https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/annyong" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Annyong</a> (the Korean kid Lucille and George Sr. adopted to look more charitable), who has been spying on Lucille and reporting back to the SEC.</p>
<h2>Buster Faces his Biggest Fear.</h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://bensbargains.net/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.32.47-PM.png"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4388" alt="Buster and the seal in Arrested Development" src="https://bensbargains.net/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.32.47-PM.png" loading="lazy" width="958" height="531" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.32.47-PM.png 958w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.32.47-PM-300x166.png 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 958px) 100vw, 958px" /></a></p>
<p>As SEC agents raid the exoneration party in the final minutes of the season 3 finale, Lucille grabs ahold of the Queen Mary&#8217;s wheel and tries to make a run for it, causing poor Buster to fall into the ocean. There, he comes face to face with his biggest fear: the very seal that bit off his hand. Will he lose his other hand? Will he use his &#8220;<a href="https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/from%20army" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">army</a>&#8221; skills to exact revenge on his arch nemesis? We&#8217;ll all just have to watch and find out.</p>
<h2>Michael and George Michael Sail Away to Cabo.</h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://bensbargains.net/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.35.23-PM.png"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4390" alt="Michael Bluth Sailing away in Arrested Development" src="https://bensbargains.net/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.35.23-PM.png" loading="lazy" width="965" height="542" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.35.23-PM.png 965w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.35.23-PM-300x168.png 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 965px) 100vw, 965px" /></a></p>
<p>Michael finds his son on &#8220;The C-Word&#8221; where they decide that, for once, they are not going to stick around and help the family, and they sail off toward Mexico together instead.</p>
<h2>George Sr. is Headed to Cabo, Too.</h2>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://bensbargains.net/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.36.59-PM.png"><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4391" alt="Michael Bluth and George Sr. on the boat in the final episode" src="https://bensbargains.net/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.36.59-PM.png" loading="lazy" width="976" height="536" srcset="https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.36.59-PM.png 976w, https://bensbargains.com/thecheckout/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Screen-Shot-2013-05-24-at-11.36.59-PM-300x164.png 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 976px) 100vw, 976px" /></a></p>
<p>Surprise! Michael wakes up in Cabo, only to discover George Sr. was hiding aboard their boat the whole time.</p>
<h2>&#8230;Wait a Second, What About Tobias?</h2>
<p>Nothing too shocking/important happened with Tobias at the end of season three. But obviously he deserves a mention (being quite possibly the best AD character ever). Looks like he&#8217;s still a struggling actor; here&#8217;s his amazing &#8220;audition reel&#8221; for your enjoyment:</p>
