I somehow installed Grub on my USB drive, now Windows/Ubuntu won't boot unless my USB drive is connected. How do I move the MBR to my laptop - internal HDD?

Test this:
Boot your pc from the HD.
Extract the usb drive.
Open a terminal. CtrlAltT.
Run it:
sudo -i
apt-get update
apt-get install reinstall grub-pc grub-pc-bin grub-common
grub-install /dev/sda
grub-install --recheck /dev/sda
update-grub
reboot
This procedure is for non-UEFI bios.
For UEFI procedure is:
sudo -i
apt-get update
apt-get install reinstall grub-efi
grub-install /dev/sda
grub-install --recheck /dev/sda
update-grub
reboot
