Quote from Cynthia in Cynthia's Back
Malcolm: Agh! What are you doing?! Reese: Algebra. Malcolm: What did he say to you? Cynthia: Malcolm, calm down! I'm just helping him with his homework. Malcolm: You know Reese doesn't care about school. Cynthia: That's what I thought, but when he asked me for help... he sounded so pathetic, I couldn't say no.
