Quote from Lois in Pilot
Lois: These clippers are dull already. Honestly, Hal, you're like a monkey. Malcolm: [to camera] They do this every month. He has sensitive skin. The hair gets itchy under his clothes. Lois: It always seems like such a shame to just dump this in the trash. Maybe birds would like to make nests with it. Or, I don't know, maybe you boys could use it for school projects. Arms up. [Hal raises his arms with the newspaper he's reading] Reese: [shields eyes] Dude.
