Episode Notes
- The episode's title is listed as "The Righteous Brothers" on the Season 2 DVD, although all press releases for the show titled it "Righteous Brothers" when it first aired.
- This episode is the finale for Season 2.
- Writers Mitchell Hurwitz and Jim Vallely won Emmy Awards for Outstanding Writing in a Comedy Series for their work on this episode.
- Tobias's resigning, followed by Michael's insistence that Tobias never worked at the Bluth Company, may be a subtle reference to the fact that Tobias being Michael's assistant was a storyline that had to be dropped due to Fox cutting back of the show from 22 to 18 episodes. "I never saw you at the desk" is probably a reference to the scenes never airing.

“My notes have a curious tendency, as I realize at last, to annihilate all they purport to record.”
