Maeby Funke is the sarcastic, independent teen daughter of Lindsay Bluth Funke, the lazy self-absorbed daughter of the Bluth family, and Tobias Funke, a general disaster of a person. Both prefer to try to be friends with their daughter than parent, whereas Maeby would prefer they ground her now and then, if only to show they care.Maeby is the savviest of the Bluths, other than her uncle Michael, with a good head for business. She has spent so much time trying to rebel to get her parents' attention that she becomes a highly effective con artist, collecting money for a fake disease ( B.S. ) from her classmates, while posing as Surely, and even getting a job with Tantamount movie studio. She also tries dressing in leather head to toe to get the attention of her mother during her anti-leather phase.She is oblivious to the strong, hopeless attraction her cousin George Michael feels for her after they kissed once.She frequently directs her lust at Steve Holt ( Steve Holt! ) the school jock dullard.Background: Maeby's parents spent $130,000 of Bluth Company money to conceive her, but ended up conceiving her the old fashioned way, and then promptly stopped paying attention to her.She works at the family Banana Stand with George Michael and immediately begins cutting corners. She is a terrific liar.
