Stevie Quote #132

Quote from Stevie in Dewey's Opera

Stevie: You wanted... to see me.
Malcolm: Stevie, brace yourself. I'm going to tell you a really big secret about something so huge that every bone in your body is going to want to tell, but you have to promise not to. This is an actual street luge. Like from your magazine.
Stevie: Heaven... forfend.
Malcolm: I need you to help me with some calculations of wheel friction and frame stiffness to get this thing perfect. I have to beat this rich jerk who keeps making me wipe out. I'm going to make a bet with him, and race him.
Stevie: You think... you can beat... this glorious... alpha male?
Reese: It's going to happen. 'Cause I'm going to hide in the bushes and jump out at him and force him to crash.
Malcolm: It may not be the most honest thing in the world, but you know what, who cares? This guys totally deserves it.
Stevie: I'd hate... to be him.

Quote from Hal

Hal: Honey, honey, relax. Honey, we're married. It doesn't matter how embarrassing something is. Because no one knows it... but me.
[fantasy:]
Hal: [sings] Lois... Don't be embarrassed. I know Everything about you. I know when you, think you're alone. You have to check, if your ears have grown. Every day, before you go to work. You know how I panic, When I see a monkey. I've seen you take pizza, From the garbage and eat it! I know all of you, You know all of me. But it's only us, my love! No one else knows. No one else. No one else. No one... Else.
[reality:]
Lois: I'll return the bed.
Hal: Honey, you've fallen asleep for a week in that bed. They're not gonna take it back.

Quote from Hal

Lois: There's a reason I bought a bed that was bigger. I did want some distance from you, but it's not because I don't love you and I don't want to be close to you.
Hal: I don't understand.
Lois: There are certain things that have to happen with my body at the end of the day. Certain events that have to... transpire. And if they don't transpire, I end up with stomach cramps, and I don't want it to happen two inches away from your nose.
Hal: That's your secret?
Lois: I know it's stupid and embarrassing and I want to be sexy for you, but after 20 years, I just have to have a break from clamping down and gritting my teeth all night.
Hal: Oh, honey, I don't care about that. And it's not a secret. The second you fall asleep you let loose like a sailor.
Lois: What?
Hal: Oh, yeah, it's like when they put the balloons away after the Thanksgiving parade.
Lois: Oh, my God. I can't hear anything. You're tunneling out.

Quote from Hal

Dewey: I'm here to snitch. Reese and Malcolm are in the garage. They won't let me in, but they're building something. If you want help in the penalty phase, let me know.
Hal: Dewey, I am not going to go in there and have a big fight with the boys because you've got nothing to do. We have a rule in this family about what we do when we're bored. [hands Dewey the TV remote]
