"Notapusy" is the fourth episode of the third season of the American television satirical sitcom Arrested Development. It is the 44th overall episode of the series, and was written by supervising producer Ron Weiner and directed by Lev L. Spiro. It originally aired on Fox on November 7, 2005, airing back-to-back with the follow-up episode, "Mr. F".
The series, narrated by Ron Howard, follows the Bluths, a formerly wealthy, dysfunctional family, who made their money from property development. The Bluth family consists of Michael, his twin sister Lindsay, his older brother Gob, his younger brother Buster, their mother Lucille and father George Sr., as well as Michael's son George Michael, and Lindsay and her husband Tobias' daughter Maeby. In the episode, Michael volunteers to participate in the father-son triathlon with Gob's son to prove his masculinity to Rita. Maeby attempts to expose the hypocrisy of an "Inner Beauty Contest" by appearing as her disabled alter-ego, Surely. George Sr. mistakenly delivers a "Startled Straight" lecture to a gathering of gay men.
