Reese Quote #607
Quote from Reese in Malcolm's Money
Reese: Geez, my feet are killing me.
Nick: I told you, you gotta let the blood drip into your shoes. Once it coagulates, then it's like walking on puffy clouds.
Reese: Look at all these people, sitting here, just waiting for death.
Nick: Yeah, I'd like to show those animal rights whackos this place. This is exactly what would happen to cows if it wasn't for us. Wait here. I'm gonna get someone to sign for the delivery.
[Reese sits down on the couch between a sleeping old man and a vegged out old woman]
Reese: [to old man] Thanks for beating Hitler. Now we're gonna watch something else. [changes channel] [takes woman's yogurt] Thank you. This is pretty sweet. Man, it's true what they say... old age is wasted on the old.

‘Malcolm's Money’ Quotes
Quote from Hal
Hal: Honey, you are looking at this all wrong. We will pay him back. We are like a bank. And banks don't give you back the same exact money that you gave them. They use it, and then pay you back with different money later on. It's what makes our economy the envy of the world.
Lois: I don't know. It just seems wrong.
Hal: Look at it as a forced savings plan. We're actually doing him a favor. Lois, I can honestly say that I was not a good father to Malcolm until I forged his signature on that check.
Lois: And we're going to pay him back, right?
Hal: Absolutely. Every cent we spend. Plus interest. With no hidden handling fees. [Hal flashes the cash]
Lois: Okay.
Hal: Good. Honey, we have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of here. Okay, you go back into the house. I'll follow in 30 seconds. Go on!
Quote from Hal
Lois: [runs tap] Four, three, two... brown... clear... brown again... good.
Dewey: What about this watch, Dad? It's only $12.99.
Hal: That's where they get you, son. See, it says $12.99, but that doesn't include the hidden costs. Shipping, handling, box tops... By the time you're through you're paying on the high side of $15. I've never owned a $15 watch.
Dewey: But I need one, Dad!
Hal: Son, a cork and a piece of string make a perfectly fine sundial and a great conversation piece with the ladies.
Quote from Lois
Lois: I've done something very bad.
Hal: What?
Lois: There was this antique store across the street from the bank. And I saw this dollhouse in the window. And the next thing I knew, I was walking out with it. It was like that money in my pocket killed the old Lois and replaced her with a crazy person...
Hal: It's okay, honey. I mean, so what if you spent a couple hundred dollars on a dollhouse? It's no big deal. Now, where's the rest of the money?
Lois: There isn't any.
Dewey: What?!
Hal: You- You spent ten thousand dollars on a stupid dollhouse?!
Lois: They wanted 12. But look, Hal, it has a tiny little dumbwaiter, and the lights really work.
[Sparks fly when Lois turns the dollhouse's lights on, causing it to catch fire. Hal grabs the burning dollhouse and takes it to the sink, but the water fails to come on as the dollhouse burns.]
