Hal: We've been waiting for 20 minutes, Lois, when can we eat?
Lois: Hal, we have to wait for the ice cream to loosen up. You know you like it soft.
Hal: No, I don't.
Dewey: Yes, you do.
Malcolm: In fact, so do we.
Reese: We all do.
Lois: Since when?
Reese: Since yesterday.
Hal: What happened yesterday?
Reese: Dad, just be patient. This isn't a witch hunt. Just calm down, and whatever happens is gonna happen.
Hal: What are you talking about?
Reese: What I'm trying to say... is we're gonna get through this together. As a family. And as individuals. In this great country... where we live. [doorbell rings]
Lois: Thank God!
