  • Linda: Well, that's the first time an exterminator said he's gonna pray for us.
  • (We cut to inside the Bob's Burgers restaurant, where we see Linda Belcher and her three kids; Tina, Gene, and Louise.)
  • Linda: That's okay, right? That's not a bad sign.
  • Gene: No.
  • Tina: Whatcha doin', Gene?
  • Gene: I'm making an instrument out of spoons, and a napkin holder, and dreams, and magic.
  • Louise: Obviously, Tina.
  • Linda: How's the burger, Bob?
  • Bob: It's okay. I put an egg on it.
  • Louise: Why is Dad making a burger at 8:00 a.m.?
  • Gene: Is he on British time?
  • Linda: He's making it to bring to Mr. Dowing at the bank. We have a meeting this morning, and we're gonna ask for an extension on our loan payment.
  • Louise: Oh, fun.
  • (Bob Belcher appears.)
  • Bob: And we really, really need to get that extension. All the restaurant equipment is wrapped up in that loan.
  • Tina: So, you're giving him a burger?
  • Bob: Well, I mean, we can't give him money, Tina.
  • Louise: 'Cause we don't have any?
  • Bob: Pretty much.
  • Gene: How about you play him some of this?
  • (Gene flicks the spoon from his custom-made instrument.)
  • Louise: What, to scare him?
  • Gene: No. To enchant him.
  • Linda: Bob, you know I love this "bring him a burger" idea, but isn't it a little early to be making it? I mean, our appointment isn't for a while.
  • (Jimmy Pesto can be seen spraying Speedo Guy with a hose)
  • Bob: (whispers) This is a practice burger.
  • Linda: (whispers) Why are you whispering?
  • Bob: (whispers) I don't want it to hear and feel bad.
  • Linda: (whispers) Okay.
  • (Bob looks at the burger)
  • Bob: (in female voice) Wait, I'm a what?
  • (Bob approached the burger and looks directly at it. The burger was made with a bottom bun, a burger patty, a single slice of yellow cheese, two strips of bacon making a cross symbol, a fried egg, and a top bun with sesame seeds on it.)
  • Bob: (in normal voice) Nothing. What? You're great.
  • (Bob pets the burger while shushing.)
  • Bob: (in female voice) Mmm, that feels nice. (in normal voice) I know. I know. (in a female voice) Don't rub my sesame seeds off. (in normal voice) I won't. Don't worry.
  • Louise: They're a cute couple.
  • Gene: Eh, I give 'em a year.
  • Bob: Uh, I'm gonna make another (whispers) practice (in normal voice) burger. And I'm gonna try not to think too much about how much is riding on today. Maybe I should put two eggs on it.
  • Linda: Hey! This could be your burger of the day! You can call it your, "Keep Your Sunny Side Up and Your Cloudy Side Down, Stay Positive, Bobby, Things Are Gonna Be Okay Burger." Right?
  • Bob: It's a little long.
  • Gene: How about "Mr. Greasy"?
  • Tina: Well, better get going. Only one more week of school, and then I'm Summer Tina. And big things are comin' for Summer Tina.
  • Gene: Big things like that heat rash you get sometimes?
  • Tina: Bigger.
  • Louise: Summer Louise might be making some moves that are pretty big, too. Maybe. I don't know. Don't worry about it, all right?
  • Tina: Fine. Sorry.
  • Gene: Summer Gene's gonna be topless 24/7 and doin' a lot of this.
  • (Gene flicks the spoon from his custom-made instrument.)

04. The Hole Problem

  • (Later, the hole is closed with barriers and a lot of workers. Five workers are inside the hole. a Pumpty Dumpty truck empties the sewage out.

  • Linda: It's not so bad.
  • Louise: Especially if you're into huge sinkholes.
  • Bob: I mean, you can't get in the door. Customers need that usually to be able to get into the restaurant.
  • (Lina spots Mr. Dowling, who was walking past Jimmy Pesto's Pizzeria.)
  • Linda: Oh, hey, Mr. Dowling. Don't worry about this at all. We're doing great! Seven days. (chuckles)
  • (Mr. Dowling shakes his head "no" in response.)
  • Linda: He's shaking his head, but that's probably just 'cause he got a bug on his face.
  • Calvin: Look out!
  • (Felix Fischoeder drives the Wonder Warf cart. His cousin, Grover Fischoeder, is in the back. and Calvin Fischoeder was sitting right next to Felix.)
  • Calvin: Landlord coming through! Wealthy landlord coming through.
  • (Calvin gets out of the cart.)
  • Calvin: That's a big hole, Bob. What did you do?
  • Bob: What?
  • Grover: I agree. This is in no way caused by old and leaky outflow pipes that the landlord of this property should have replaced years ago. Good point, sir.
  • (Felix takes the tube that was used for champumping of his mouth)
  • Felix: Is this important? 'Cause (clears throat) Calvin, we were right in the middle of flyering for Wonder Warf and champumping.
  • Linda: How long do you think this'll take to fill in, Mr. Fischoeder?
  • Calvin: Well, let's see, what year is it now?
  • Bob: Oh, my God.
  • Linda: He's kidding. (chuckles) You're kidding, right?
  • Calvin: Yes. Let's say yes. I'm putting you in charge of this, Felix. You're my ne'er-do-well brother who no one believes in, but maybe filling holes is your thing. And you just need a chance to shine.
  • Felix: Grover, I'm delegating this to you, since you're our something.
  • Grover: Lawyer.
  • Felix: Right.
  • Grover: And cousin.
  • Felix: Ugh.
  • Grover: Anyway, the city will take care of this. Probably done soon-ish?
  • Calvin: Or sooner!
  • Linda: See, Bob? Our hole's getting filled.
