- [seeing fireworks explode in the sky]
- Reese: How do we know which one's the Komodo 3000?
- [There is an explosion of light so bright that night turns to day for about five seconds]
- Malcolm: ...Let's hope that was it!
- Francis: Did it say when our vision would come back?
- Reese: Box said two days!
- Francis: Totally worth it!
- Francis: Okay, and now you're smiling, which means in about two seconds I'm going to look like a jackass.
- Francis: What is that?
- Malcolm: Looks like a fuse.
- Francis: All right, what exactly are you planning?
- Malcolm: We're planning to get you back! We want our brother back, the way he used to be.
- Reese: We know how much you used to like fire, explosions...
- [He hands Francis a lighter. Francis looks at it for a moment, then...]
- Francis: Nice try! That was a long time ago.
- Malcolm: Really?
- Francis: [looks at the fuse again] So where does this go?
- Malcolm: Well, I suppose you could find out by crawling over the fence and following the fuse. Or you could find out... the Francis way.
- Reese: We're sure you'll make the right decision.
- Francis: Guys, I'm telling you, things are different now! I'm married, I have responsibilities. I'm just not a sixteen-year-old maniac anymore who...
- [Hearing a click, he looks and sees his hand has already flicked the lighter and is holding it to the fuse]
- Francis: Huh. Interesting.
- Hal: They don't think, Francis, they never have. The only thing their heads are good for is to plug up their necks.
