Correct. I’ve broken with my old practice and NOT taped the last two episodes - and the premiere was so good that I really regret that - but at the time, I was positive he was talking about Rita.

I thought it was, ah, polite of George Sr. and Michael to only include GOB and Buster in their discussion of stupid family members.
