Quote from Lois in Reese's Job
Dewey: Good morning, everybody! Say good morning, Charlie. Show everyone how alive you are. Malcolm: [to camera] My parents made a deal with Dewey. If he keeps his goldfish alive for two months, he gets a dog. Dewey: Am I doing a good job? Lois: You sure are. [quietly] How is that fish still alive? Hal: I don't know! He never feeds it. He leaves it out in the sun for hours. Last week there was an old banana peel in there. Lois: I do not want a dog in this house. Hal: Lois, if the fish lives, there's nothing we can do! Lois: Hal, I expect you to take care of this. Hal: What are you suggesting? Lois: I'm not suggesting anything. I just want it taken care of.
