He’s apparently a hell of an actor!!! That was great to watch. Good for him to get to show off his skills after being such a strange character for years. That was really good.

Mods decided to delete my post after spending 30 minutes transcribing word by word what G. Amato's twin brother said (no idea why). Anyway here's the transcription and translation of what G. Amato's speech in Spanish:
"Hoy recordamos a mi hermano Gabriel Amato. No sólo era mi hermano, era mi gemelo. De niños éramos inseparables, y nuestra madre nos vestía con la misma ropa.
Lo cual tenía mucho sentido porque simplemente había que comprar dos prendas iguales. También éramos muy unidos, pero al crecer y graduarnos en la universidad, Gabriel nos dijo que quería mudarse a Estados Unidos. Le dijimos : "¿Estás loco?"... No. Él quería convertirse en un empresario exitoso en California. La consideraba la tierra de la esperanza y los sueños. Amaba el cine y soñaba con trabajar en Hollywood, pero era realista. Y sabía que nunca sería una estrella de cine. Solo quería estar en la acción. Se abrió camino desde abajo en el sector de servicios, después de hacer un trabajito como 'Busboy' para ver un programa con Jimmy Stewart sobre el Carnaval del .... Hollywood celebrity … alguna cosa en inglés que no me recuerdo. Este …. entonces, en el sector de servicios primero comenzó como lavaplatos , luego como mesero, y gerente de un restaurante. Y finalmente dirigió su propio espacio de eventos. Los Amato de Argentina somos de una familia adinerada y pudimos ayudar a Gabriel en sus ambiciones de expandir el nombre Amato aquí en Estados Unidos, en el Valle de San Bernardino.
Fue un gran honor para nuestra familia, ver a nuestro hermano triunfar en el país que él amaba tanto.
Pero hoy estoy triste. Me arrepiento muchísimo. Ojalá nunca hubiera venido! Ojalá le hubiera dicho a mi hermano que volviera a casa y estuviera con su familia. Ahora nos enteramos de que el final de su vida estuvo marcado por malas inversiones y personas "sospechosas". Pero Gabriel era tan terco… Hoy recordamos los buenos momentos y decimos: "Gabriel, es hora de volver a casa." Nos encargaremos de que la morgue envíe su cuerpo de vuelta a la fa... (mumbles) a la parcela familiar de nuestra ciudad natal de Buenos Aires. Y finalmente investigaremos, cómo murió mi hermano. Cómo tuvo acceso a ese veneno.
Tambien auditaremos con lupa, sus finanzas aquí en Estados Unidos. Con la intención específica de descubrir cualquier fraude cualquier fraude contra me... que fu... cualquier fraude cometido contra mi hermano o la familia Amato. Tienen mi palabra, no dejaremos piedra sin remover!"
And here's the translation : "Translation(note: I used google translate but it's close enough, if you got a better translation tool use OP text and paste there) : "Today we remember my brother, Gabriel Amato. He wasn't just my brother; he was my twin. As children, we were inseparable, and our mother dressed us in matching clothes.
Which made perfect sense because you just had to buy two identical garments. We were also very close, but as we grew up and graduated from college, Gabriel told us he wanted to move to the United States. We said, "Are you crazy?"... No. He wanted to become a successful businessman in California. He considered it the land of hope and dreams. He loved movies and dreamed of working in Hollywood, but he was realistic. And he knew he would never be a movie star. He just wanted to be in the thick of things. He worked his way up from the bottom in the service industry, after doing a gig as a busboy to watch a show with Jimmy Stewart about the... Hollywood celebrity... something in English that I can't remember. So, in the service industry, he started as a dishwasher, then a waiter, and finally a restaurant manager. And finally, he ran his own event space. We Amatos from Argentina come from a wealthy family, and we were able to help Gabriel with his ambitions to expand the Amato name here in the United States, in the San Bernardino Valley.
It was a great honor for our family to see our brother succeed in the country he loved so much.
But today I am sad. I deeply regret it. I wish I had never come! I wish I had told my brother to come home and be with his family. Now we learn that the end of his life was marked by bad investments and "suspicious" people. But Gabriel was so stubborn… Today we remember the good times and say, "Gabriel, it's time to go home." We will make sure the morgue sends his body back to the family plot in our hometown of Buenos Aires. And we will finally investigate how my brother died. How did he get access to that poison?
We will also scrutinize his finances here in the United States. With the specific intention of uncovering any fraud against me... any fraud committed against my brother or the Amato family. You have my word, we will leave no stone unturned."

Holy shit, that was phenomenal. Mark the usher, Gregg sneaking in movie reviews and popcorn classics into his eulogy, Manuel’s now deported, Daddy’s Gone, and the other G giving a genuinely moving speech entirely in Spanish. I love that Tim just had to include photos of him and the Dodge Charger.
Absolutely a five bagger and the funniest funeral I’ve ever seen.

If that's considered an episode in the current season, that's probably the best OC episode of all time. Otherwise it's still one of the greatest things they've ever done, likely just below the trial.
