The Goldbergs · Season 1, Episode 15

Adult Adam, Pops and others in “Unfinished Business”

[voiceover] As Erica was channeling my mom at school, my dad was being schooled by Pops.

Ah, Murray, perfect timing. Come over here, take a seat. [It cuts to Murray showing the dancing album book] I want you to look at that handsome young man and tell me what you see.

Someone who was still able to drop his pants in peace.

No! This is a photo of your first dance, your first act as a married man, and you're not even moving.

I moved plenty that day. I walked down the aisle, I stepped on the glass, I walked back up the aisle. I was a regular Carl Lewis.

Damn it, Murray, when you asked for my daughter's hand, you said you'd do anything you could to make her happy. Does it look like happiness to you?

Ugh. Fine! I'll do one dance, but I'm not moving my lower half.

Did someone say "dance instructor"?

No! Where did you even come from?!

Come on! It's like "footloose"! You're the dopey farm boy, and I'm Kevin Bacon! Let me be your Bacon!

Don't distract me with bacon. I'm not dancing.

Come on! [turning on the music on the boombox; Footloose by Kevin Loggins is playing] Yeah! Feel the beat! There's nothing wrong with two bros bonding over dance.

Barry, this is a delicate situation. You're making it worse!

Well, the infectious music of Kenny Loggins will win him over.

It's not winning him over.

The human body is literally programmed to love Loggins. He can't say no!

No!

[Adam stops the music]

Hey!

What if I told you there was a way that you could be a dancing god without ever having to move your body?

No! Don't listen to him!

I'm listening.

All you got to do is raise your hands over your head.

At the same time?

Yes.

You're gonna listen to this lazy-eyed nerd when you have this at your disposal?

I'm gonna go with Adam's easy thing.
