Berta was never one to shy away from making jokes at anybody's expense but for some reason, her jabs always seemed to be sexual when it came to Alan. During this season 2 episode, the opening scene has Charlie ditching a highly annoying woman in his shower, only to have Alan reach into the shower to turn the water off (because he doesn't know the woman is there).
While Charlie very rarely made any actual efforts to push Alan out of his house (because then the show would end) it was a running gag that he continually hoped his little brother would some day move out.
It was quite a story-arc when the writers decided to put Charlie in a relationship with a woman who was exactly like his mother in season 4. The moment that Charlie's new girlfriend and mother meet, Berta just happens to be there to watch the identical ladies' first interaction. When the ladies leave and the rest of the household can't believe that Charlie doesn't see how similar the two women are, Berta decides to say a quote so hilarious that they couldn't let her finish it on cable television.
