Malcolm: Stevie, come on. Jonas Salk would've solved this days ago.
Stevie: He wasn't... working with... an idiot.
Malcolm: You're calling me an idiot? You want to make a type-two-restriction enzyme in yeast without using any bacteria, and I'm the idiot?
Stevie: Yes... and yes. We have to... try something.
Malcolm: What do you think I've been doing for the last two weeks?
Reese: When am I getting my room back? I can't work on my sexy-face out there in front of Mom. What are you guys doing in here anyway?
Malcolm: Trying to create a new kind of restriction enzyme. What does it look like?
Reese: You're messing up my room for that?
Malcolm: This is important. Restriction enzymes are used for chromosome mapping, DNA testing, gene splicing. It's for a big national competition. If we win this, our paper will be published in a scientific journal. We'll probably be able to write our ticket to any college in the country.
Stevie: Then everyone... will pay.
