Quotes
-
Lois : [tensions have been mounting as Hal learns of a possible health problem, and the boys misbehave rather spectacularly] How dare you defy us like that?
Malcolm : Well we wouldn't have had to if you hadn't been ridiculously hard over a little mud on the floor.
Lois : You two are the most ungrateful, badly behaved, inconsiderate boys ever born. How could you be so heartless?
Reese : What is heartless about going to a party with a bunch of slutty girls?
Malcolm : [whispering] Be cool.
Hal : [almost out of control] You were at a party? While we were here worrying?
Dewey : [oblivious] Can I have a napkin?
Hal : [he throws the napkin toward Dewey, still focusing on Malcolm and Reese] I cannot believe you two.
Lois : [losing it completely] All right, that's *it*! You're grounded for the rest of the school year.
Reese : You can't do that.
Malcolm : You're crazy!
Hal : [enraged] You do *not* talk to your mother that way, **ever**! You will show her nothing but the love and respect she deserves, whether I am here or not.
Reese : This family sucks. You are ruining our lives. I wish you were dead.
[Lois is stunned, speechless, and she and Hal leave the kitchen]
Malcolm : What was that all about?
Reese : I don't know. She usually just says, 'I'm taking you with me.'
