Francis: [on the phone] Hi, Malcolm. What's going on?
Malcolm: I just wanted to talk to you about something that's bothering me.
Francis: What's it about?
Malcolm: There's this girl, and...
Francis: Keep Mom out of it!
Malcolm: What?!
Francis: I am warning you, keep Mom out of your love life.
Malcolm: Mom has nothing to do with this.
Francis: Trust me - yes, she does. She will ruin it, I swear. Whatever Mom tells you, don't do it. And don't do the opposite, either! The way it's worked for me is... Actually, it's never worked for me.
