Quote from Malcolm in Malcolm's Girlfriend
Lois: Sit. Look at yourself. They've put you on probation. Probation! If you do just one more thing wrong they're gonna kick you outta school. Do you have any idea how serious this is? Is this who you wanna be? You wanna be some little lap dog who ruins his life for some girl? For God's sake, Malcolm, you beat up a foreign exchange student! Poor little [indiscernible name] left his country to get away from this kind of abuse! Are you even listening to me? Malcolm: Yes, I'm listening! But I've got bigger problems! You may not have noticed, but I've been screwing up a lot lately. All because of some stupid girl! I'm on probation! I beat up a kid who doesn't even speak English! I'm going through a lot and you don't even care!
