Quotes

Malcolm : [Malcolm shows the brothers evidence that they've been humiliated on the Internet] The Schwabs sent out a mass eMail to everyone at school. They Photoshopped our heads onto a dirty movie.
Dewey : Gross!
Reese : That can't be a dirty movie. There aren't any girls in it.
Reese : [pause for recognition] Oh my God!
Malcolm : I'm not homophobic. If the three of us were gay lovers, I'd be fine with this. But it's not true!
Reese : [passionately] This is so humiliating. My abs are way more ripped than that guy's.
Dewey : [quietly, through clenched teeth] We've got to respond.
-
Hal : [Hal is obsessed with his sons' safety after he learns that his family's lapsed health insurance cannot be re-activated until after the weekend] What does it take to keep you boys safe?... What's the matter with you boys. Don't you realize you could get killed?
Reese : Dad, I'm not gonna die.
Hal : What?
Reese : I'm seventeen.
Hal : And so you can't die?
Reese : I just don't see it happening.
Hal : I got news for you, Reese. Seventeen-year-olds die all the time.
Reese : [scoffing] Come on, Dad. That's just somethin' they tell you to so you stay off drugs.
Hal : That's it! You're all grounded, in your room, for the rest of the weekend.
Malcolm : You can't do that.
Dewey : I know I'm gonna die, Dad.
Hal : Nobody is dying in this family until the start of business Monday morning.
Dewey : [Hal locks the boys in their room] Dad, why are you doing this?
Reese : We're gonna call child welfare, and this time they'll come.

Malcolm : [in the "cold open" for the show, Reese is seen eating globs of ice cream] Eat faster.
Dewey : Don't chew it, just swallow it.
Reese : [pauses to think] Nothing.
Malcolm : [turns to the camera and explains] Granted, this isn't scientific, but the fact that Reese can't get 'brain freeze' has to prove something.
Reese : Wait... I'm feeling something in my toes.
