This iconic meme originates from the fifth episode of the first season of the sitcom Arrested Development, featuring the character Lucille Bluth, played by the late Jessica Walter. In the scene, Lucille demonstrates her complete disconnect from reality and the lives of the working class by guessing that a single banana costs ten dollars. Since its airing in 2003, the line has become a shorthand for describing politicians, celebrities, or wealthy individuals who are blissfully unaware of the financial struggles of average people. It is widely used on social media to mock inflation, corporate price gouging, or any situation where someone displays a comical lack of understanding regarding common expenses.
