Reese Quote #79

Quote from Reese in The Bully

Malcolm: You know, you've been acting really weird ever since you got your butt kicked by that girl.
Reese: It's not just about the girl. Wrestling made me feel good, you know? I was helping the school. People looked up to me. And that's gone now, and I've got nothing. But it's not going to be like that anymore. I'm going to find a way to make people proud of me again.
Malcolm: So what are you going to do?
Reese: I don't know. I just want to be the good guy, do good stuff... for good. Dewey, what can I do for you?
Dewey: Mom!
Reese: Shut up! I'm trying to help you.

Quote from Francis

Lois: [answers phone] Hello.
Francis: Mom, great news. I figured out a way to get home Wednesday.
Lois: Francis...
Francis: No, it won't cost you a cent. One of the cadet's fathers is a trucker. He said I can ride in the refrigerator compartment to the 609 interchange. And a buddy of his flies a crop duster. Now, if he's sober, he should be able to drop me off at the soybean field near the train station...

Quote from Reese

Malcolm: Okay, what the hell was that milk thing on the playground?
Reese: I don't know. I had to do something.
Malcolm: So you poured milk on yourself? Why didn't you just pound that kid?
Reese: Because I'm sick of doing that. I'm sick of beating up little kids. It's creepy.
Malcolm: But that's you. That's what you do.
Reese: Not anymore. That was the old me. The thing I did at school today was me destroying the old Reese.
Malcolm: So, drenching yourself with chocolate milk was like a baptism?
Reese: No, idiot. I was washing away the old me and starting over.

Quote from Malcolm

Lois: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. What happened to you?
Malcolm: What happened to me? I'll tell you what happened to me. Since Reese got whipped by that girl, he stopped being the school bully, so now there's no one to protect me from people who think I'm an unfunny little smart ass, which is evidently everyone.
Hal: Well, you can be a little sarcastic.
Malcolm: Thanks, Dad. I feel better.
Hal: Case in point. [to Lois] Well, he can be.
