[1] The series, narrated by Ron Howard, follows the Bluths, a formerly wealthy, dysfunctional family, who made their money from property development.
Michael (Jason Bateman) visits Lucille (Jessica Walter) to remind her that he needs her as the co-chair of the Bluth Foundation Dinner.
Warden Gentles (James Lipton) installs cameras in the penthouse to study George Sr. (Tambor).
Lindsay (Portia de Rossi) tells Michael that this year’s disease for the dinner is Graft-versus-host, which Tobias (David Cross) already suffers from, with his hair transplant rejecting his body.
When the patrons learn that removing his hair plugs will cure Tobias, the crowd grows unruly.
Club writer Noel Murray commented that "the callbacks in “Prison Break-In” are mostly very funny; and they do range from the recent to the (relatively) ancient."
Tallerico then said "It’s not that “Prison Break-In” is awful, just that it never comes together into the inspired comedy that defines most of the series.
