Malcolm: [to camera] I wasn't going to say anything until he got to the banjo stuff, but he'll be dead before sundown. [to Lois] Mom, I think there's something you should know. Remember last week when you asked Craig to cover for you on the schedule?

Lois: You ruined his life so you could go see some band?! Are you that selfish?
Malcolm: Apparently, because there's a part of me hoping you'll still let me go. [Lois glares at Malcolm] Okay, that part's gone.
Lois: Get in the car! We got to go find him!
