Quote from Reese
Reese: Wow, Dad, you buy out the whole store? No one's got a better dad than us.
Dewey: Except Joe Garoogian.
Reese: Dewey! You don't deserve to remember how good Dad is. You only deserve to remember me whacking the crap out of you.
Hal: Not so fast, Reese. The boy's just being honest. Now tell me, what is it about this Joe's father that's so great?
Dewey: His dad's vice president of an electronics company. He can get any type of TV, video game or stereo he wants.
Hal: Is there an electronics store near here?
Reese: Tech Boys on Willow. Price Town's closer, but they have crap for high-def.
Quote from Hal
Car Salesman: Now, a high-tech package comes with a CG rearview imaging system, a GPS and a DVD.
Malcolm: I don't absolutely need a DVD player.
Hal: Sure you do, Malcolm. Every time you stop at a red light, I want you watching movies, thinking of your dad. What else have we got?
Car Salesman: Want the sports package?
Hal: That's like asking if we want doors.
