Quote from Reese in Smunday
Reese: Come on, already, think of something! Malcolm: I'm trying. All I've got are all the reasons this was a stupid idea in the first place. Even if we manage to keep mom fooled, we're screwed when Dad gets home. It basically means we're going to sit here, bored out of our minds for eight hours and wait for Mom to top our last punishment. Reese: How could you be so stupid? I could have done that myself.
