Dewey: Mom's doing this next Christmas?!
Reese: Why wouldn't she? It worked, didn't it?

Reese: What do you mean?
Malcolm: What if she does it for other things, like Halloween or Fourth of July or our birthdays?!
Reese: She can't do this!
Dewey: I can't take any more!
Malcolm: We have to do something to stop her! Something drastic.

Quote from Ida
Francis: Well, look at that. 8pm already. Way past bedtime. Where do I sleep?
Ida: You're sittin' on it.
Francis: Does it turn into a bed?
Ida: Yes, it becomes a bed. It's a special magic sofa. It opens up for magic lazy boy. And the angels come and feed you grapes and sing to you while you sleep. And it flies around the room granting wishes for boys what are stupid.
Francis: Alright, it doesn't fold out.
