Hal : Malcolm, I can't believe what I'm hearing. Your best friend is in the hospital, and you're here helping me stalk a 10-year-old.
Malcolm : I'm trying, but visiting someone in the hospital isn't as easy as you might think.
Hal : Malcolm, don't you see what you're doing? You're just avoiding an unpleasant situation.
Malcolm : I know. It's just that Stevie and I have never really talked seriously about his illnesses. We've kind of had this unspoken agreement that he was just a regular kid. If I had to see him lying in his hospital bed hooked up to God knows what, it's kind of hard to pretend like nothing's wrong. I just don't know what to say.
Hal : Son, don't think about it. Sometimes all you have to say is hello.
Malcolm : That's a great way to put it. So simple.

Lois : [to Malcolm] How was Stevie?
Malcolm : I didn't get to see him.
Lois : You left for the hospital over three hours ago.
Malcolm : I tried taking the express bus, but somehow, I ended up on a shuttle to the airport. Seriously, they need to label those things better.
Lois : They're bright red and say "airport shuttle" on the side.
Malcolm : We drove right past the hospital, but the stupid driver wouldn't let me out. When did people stop caring?
Lois : Calm down, Malcolm. It's no big deal. You can go tomorrow.
Malcolm : Yeah, if the buses will let me.
