Quote from Lois in Malcolm Visits College
Leland: All right, kid, here's the deal, my name is Leland. More importantly, I'm the RA, which stands for Resident Advisor, which means I'm in charge of this floor. So you're going to have to keep the music down. Malcolm: Is it really that loud? Leland: Listen, guy, I can either be your best friend or your worst nightmare. Now turn the radio down. Lois: Is there a problem here? Leland: Who are you? Lois: I'm his mother. I'm supervising these kids in this coed room which I cannot believe your school condones. Leland: You know, ma'am, that's not what I'm here about. That radio is at least five dBs above the approved noise level. I'd hate to have to confiscate it or move on to more serious consequences. Lois: You know what, Leland? I've been to college. I know exactly how much power and authority an RA has. Good night. [closes door]
