Lois Quote #44
Quote from Lois in Francis Escapes
Lois: That kid! He thinks he can run away from school like some kind of escaped convict? If he thinks he can just vanish in the night and I won't find him, well, he is sadly mistaken.
Hal: Lois, you just calm down. There's nothing we can do right now.
Lois: Yes, there is. I can call the police.
Hal: No, they're not going to look for anybody unless they've been missing 48 hours.
Lois: Not if I say he has drugs on him.
Hal: Lois, stop it. Now, you're just going to have to accept the fact that, for now, this is beyond your control. Francis is going to have to sink or swim on his own, and frankly, I don't think that's such a bad thing. In the meantime, we just have to leave it up to fate.
Lois: [scoffs] Fate. Fate is just what you call it when you don't know the name of the person screwing you over.

Quote from Dewey
Dewey: And then the monster started growling, so I threw rocks at him and killed him. And then he started flying around on rocket boots, and I got to ride inside his head, and now the monster's my friend, and we went to get Slurpees.
Reese: You did not. You're just lying.
Hal: Reese, if that's what Dewey says happened, there's no reason to argue about it.
Reese: No one believes I beat the last level of Mortal Kombat.
Hal: Because that's just ridiculous. No one beats Sub-Zero.
Quote from Malcolm
Malcolm: [to camera] Okay, I've been up for half an hour. I've had my cereal. It's time for Mom to ask the same annoying question she asks me every morning.
Lois: So, Malcolm, what are you doing in your genius class today?
Malcolm: Nothing. It's just as dumb and boring as being in regular class, except now I get ostracized.
Lois: Ostracized? Oh, you're learning such big words.
Quote from Reese

Malcolm: Okay.

Malcolm: [to camera] The sad thing is he thinks he just outsmarted her.
