1. Boys, cookies!
Copy !req
2. All right!
Copy !req
3. Nuh-uh, not that one.
Copy !req
4. I put Dewey's antibiotics in that one.
Copy !req
5. Take this one. It's biggest.
Copy !req
6. - Did you put anything in this one?
- Of course not. Just take it.
Copy !req
7. Then take this one 20 minutes later.
Copy !req
8. Malcolm in the Middle
7.01 - "Burning Man"
Copy !req
9. Synchronisation par Max & Tyno,
Script original par Raceman.
Copy !req
10. There's no doubt about it,
we're totally gonna go this year.
Copy !req
11. Totally. It's not even a question.
Copy !req
12. What's there to question?
Copy !req
13. Nothing. Because we're going.
Copy !req
14. - We're totally going.
- Totally.
Copy !req
15. Oh, God, Burning Man again?
Copy !req
16. Every year it's the same thing.
Copy !req
17. "This time we're totally going!"
Copy !req
18. "Oh, yeah, totally!"
Copy !req
19. And every year you chicken out
with some pathetic excuse.
Copy !req
20. My personal favorite was last year's
"really bad Slurpee headache."
Copy !req
21. See? That is exactly the kind of
ignorant talk I'd expect from someone
Copy !req
22. who doesn't have any appreciation
for what Burning Man is.
Copy !req
23. A week of freedom out in the desert,
naked women, getting back
Copy !req
24. to your primal nature, naked women,
people doing art, naked women.
Copy !req
25. Are all the women naked?
Copy !req
26. That is all you heard, isn't it?
Copy !req
27. Mom...
Copy !req
28. Dad breakfast...
Copy !req
29. Jamie...
Copy !req
30. Dewey...
Copy !req
31. Dad dinner.
Copy !req
32. There. That should get us till tomorrow.
Copy !req
33. I can't believe it. We're really doing it!
Copy !req
34. We're actually going to Burning Man!
Copy !req
35. Hitchhiking?
Copy !req
36. Hitchhiking on the highway like hobos?
Copy !req
37. Thank God your mother undercooked
the chicken last night, or who knows
Copy !req
38. when we might have found out about this?
Copy !req
39. What were you thinking?
Copy !req
40. Sneaking off in the middle
of the night to go to some
Copy !req
41. overblown keg party in the desert!
Copy !req
42. That is not what Burning Man is all about.
Copy !req
43. Burning Man is an incredible, interactive
experiment in human creativity,
Copy !req
44. where you do art just for art's sake,
Copy !req
45. and you make music from instruments
that came to you in dreams.
Copy !req
46. It's the one place where you're
free to let go and really see
Copy !req
47. what you're capable of creating without
worrying what anyone else thinks!
Copy !req
48. That's what Burning Man is all about!
Copy !req
49. I think she actually might've bought that.
Copy !req
50. This Burning Person sounds like it's gonna
be a lot of fun. What a great idea, Malcolm.
Copy !req
51. Yeah. Maybe next year we can
take Grandma to Mardi Gras.
Copy !req
52. You think I enjoy having
powers that I can't control?
Copy !req
53. Believe me, I'd much rather
be as stupid as you are.
Copy !req
54. Don't try sucking up to me now.
Copy !req
55. I still can't believe Mr. Barnes
let you borrow his fancy RV.
Copy !req
56. This is so classy. This is like
Buckingham Palace on wheels.
Copy !req
57. He ripped one on the elevator just before
the CEO got on, and I took the blame for it.
Copy !req
58. That's the way things work
in the corporate world.
Copy !req
59. You're unselfish, and it paid off.
Copy !req
60. Hey, you boys check out the flat
screen TV back in the bedroom?
Copy !req
61. And the two-thirds-scale
fold-down pool table?
Copy !req
62. Boy, we're gonna have
so much fun in this baby!
Copy !req
63. Whoa, whoa. What was that?
Copy !req
64. I just opened an apple juice for Jamie.
Copy !req
65. And now you can close it back up.
I thought I was clear about this.
Copy !req
66. The camper is going back without
a single stain, smudge, smell or dent.
Copy !req
67. - Yeah, but I really think Jamie...
- Dewey, what is the rule?
Copy !req
68. This one RV is worth three of me.
Copy !req
69. Okay.
Copy !req
70. Help me get this grate off.
Copy !req
71. I'm gonna ditch out when
we slow down for a turn.
Copy !req
72. I am not going to Burning Man
with Mom and Dad.
Copy !req
73. Reese, we're in the middle of the desert.
Copy !req
74. I know what you're thinking. The road
runners are too smart to catch and eat.
Copy !req
75. But the coyotes are idiots.
Copy !req
76. Look, it might not be as
embarrassing as we think.
Copy !req
77. If we move quick, we might
be able to sneak off
Copy !req
78. without anyone knowing that we came
to Burning Man with our parents.
Copy !req
79. We're here!
Copy !req
80. Hey, neighbors!
Copy !req
81. I'm gonna do art, too.
Copy !req
82. I brought my paintbrushes.
Copy !req
83. Okay, let's get moving here.
Copy !req
84. Reese, Malcolm. I want you guys...
Copy !req
85. They're gone.
Copy !req
86. They shimmied under the
RV and took off running.
Copy !req
87. Oh. Well, then I guess it's up to you to
help me set up a protective perimeter
around the camper.
Copy !req
88. We'll need about 40 rocks,
at least the size of bowling balls.
Copy !req
89. I'm sorry, son. You snooze, you lose.
Copy !req
90. Now, come on, come on.
Don't let the flies get in.
Copy !req
91. Look at this place, it's amazing!
Copy !req
92. That has to be the coolest guy on Earth!
Copy !req
93. See? I told you everything was gonna be
all right even with Mom and Dad here.
Copy !req
94. We just need to make sure
we look out for each other...
Copy !req
95. - Excuse-me.
- Whoa! Ow! Ow! Damn it!
Copy !req
96. I stepped on a cactus.
Can you give me a hand?
Copy !req
97. Reese?
Copy !req
98. Hey, buddy?
Copy !req
99. You know where the topless chicks are?
Copy !req
100. And I'm not interested in the uggos
or blimps, if you know what I'm saying.
Copy !req
101. Follow me, I'm going that way.
Copy !req
102. Hey, man, want some Stanley?
Copy !req
103. First time at Burning Man?
Copy !req
104. Yeah.
Copy !req
105. Yeah, I can always tell the newbies.
Copy !req
106. Hey, you guys, you want a little Stanley?
Copy !req
107. What's Stanley?
Copy !req
108. Oh, Stanley was a buddy of mine.
Copy !req
109. We've been coming to Burning
Man together almost 20 years.
Copy !req
110. Anyway, he passed on over the winter,
and he always said he wanted his ashes
Copy !req
111. scattered here, kind of as a way of
spreading the spirit of Burning Man
to the people and the family he loved.
Copy !req
112. And you're allowed to do that?
Copy !req
113. Spray a dead guy on people?
Copy !req
114. I got suspended for a week for putting
a mouse's head on the end of my pencil.
Copy !req
115. Burning Man's all about freedom, dude.
You can do whatever you want here.
Copy !req
116. Whatever I want?
Copy !req
117. I could kick this over?
Copy !req
118. Or break that?
Copy !req
119. Well, I guess if you really felt you had to.
Copy !req
120. Doesn't that kind of take the fun
out of mindless destruction?
Copy !req
121. That's what the flaming catapult's for.
Copy !req
122. Yeah, but the real spirit of Burning
Man isn't about destruction.
Copy !req
123. It's about creating,
participating, contributing.
Copy !req
124. Building a community that
needs you, relies on you.
Copy !req
125. It's about allowing yourself
to become part of the whole,
Copy !req
126. and then coming away from
it with more than you brought.
Copy !req
127. No, there's no feeling like it in the world.
Copy !req
128. Wow.
Copy !req
129. Yeah, it's a mind-altering journey, son...
Copy !req
130. if you're willing to take it.
Copy !req
131. You know what?
Copy !req
132. I think I want some Stanley.
Copy !req
133. Wow! This stuff is gorgeous.
We really have to get some for the house.
Copy !req
134. Howdy!
Copy !req
135. Just getting the old homestead set up.
Copy !req
136. Best hamburgers and dogs you've ever tasted
are on me when I get this baby fired up, huh?
Copy !req
137. What's he doing?
Copy !req
138. It's performance art.
Copy !req
139. He's skewering the empty banality
of the modern suburban dad.
Copy !req
140. Honey, where'd I put my good basting brush?
Copy !req
141. Honey?
Copy !req
142. Honey?
Copy !req
143. This guy's good.
Copy !req
144. No one told me there was a
looky-loo convention in town.
Copy !req
145. Dad, do I have to circle the whole thing?
Copy !req
146. I can't find any more rocks.
Copy !req
147. Son, look, we might be in the desert,
but we are still civilized people,
Copy !req
148. and civilized people put up arbitrary boundaries
that they will fight to the death to protect.
Copy !req
149. I'm pretty sure we passed some nice-sized
rocks when we turned into the camp.
Copy !req
150. That's half a mile away!
Copy !req
151. Don't be silly.
Copy !req
152. Two miles, easy.
Copy !req
153. Here we go!
Copy !req
154. Hal, this place is so great!
Copy !req
155. I met the nicest group of gals
down by the Porta Potti's.
Copy !req
156. They call themselves a "tribe," like
a group of wild Indians. Isn't that cute?
Copy !req
157. They invited me to the
hemp-braiding tent later.
Copy !req
158. What are you using the Porta Potti's for
when we have the world's greatest toilet
ten feet away in the RV?
Copy !req
159. That thing will suck down a small deer.
Copy !req
160. Mention free food and
they start gathering like flies.
Copy !req
161. This is great. I'm gonna spend my entire two
days at Burning Man standing in this line.
Copy !req
162. Hey, man.
Copy !req
163. You know, the line's much shorter
over in front of the Shaman's tent.
Copy !req
164. The what?
Copy !req
165. Oh, you will love her.
Copy !req
166. She totally cured my plantar's warts.
Copy !req
167. - Thanks, but...
- Come on, man.
Copy !req
168. You think I'd lead you wrong?
Copy !req
169. And remember, if you're gonna eat glass, chew
at least ten times before you swallow. Okay?
Copy !req
170. Ooh, what do we have here?
Copy !req
171. I stepped on a cactus.
Copy !req
172. The needle went right through my shoe.
Copy !req
173. Let's take a look.
Copy !req
174. It's not a big deal.
Copy !req
175. I think I just need some disinfectant
and a band-aid and I'll be...
Copy !req
176. Ma'am?
Copy !req
177. Mmm.
Copy !req
178. You've internalized a lot
of criticism, haven't you?
Copy !req
179. Well, I don't know.
Copy !req
180. I guess.
Copy !req
181. But what does...
Copy !req
182. Okay... here's your problem.
Copy !req
183. You have an incredible amount
of passion in your soul.
Copy !req
184. But you've got to let down
the armor you're using to shield it.
Copy !req
185. You also need a tetanus shot.
Copy !req
186. Okay, she's almost as old as my mom,
and obviously crazy as a loon.
Copy !req
187. So why am I so turned on?
Copy !req
188. Most Western medicines numb the body.
Copy !req
189. They silence it.
Copy !req
190. But the body's an amazing thing, Malcolm.
It can tell you what's wrong with it.
Copy !req
191. All real healing is just listening.
Copy !req
192. I don't see anything alternative about that.
Copy !req
193. I just don't see colonizing
space as the answer.
Copy !req
194. I mean, if we can't solve our problems here,
Copy !req
195. what's the point of just
exporting them there?
Copy !req
196. Even Werner Von Braun said
that everything science taught him
Copy !req
197. strengthened his belief in the continuity
of spiritual existence after death.
Copy !req
198. Okay, I buy that Godzilla came out of
the collective purging of Japanese guilt
Copy !req
199. after World War II, but can you explain to
me why the costume had to look so fake?
Copy !req
200. Well, let's see...
Copy !req
201. First I'd say...
Copy !req
202. The Go-Go's.
Copy !req
203. Then The Bangles...
Copy !req
204. Bananarama and Josie and the Pussycats.
Copy !req
205. I can't believe it! I hated
Charlotte's Web, too!
Copy !req
206. I just wanted to squash
that whiny little spider.
Copy !req
207. Deep Dish.
Copy !req
208. Chocolate chip.
Copy !req
209. Oscar the Grouch.
Copy !req
210. Wow. And I thought all that crap everyone
said about love was just to piss me off.
Copy !req
211. - So you're going to come?
- Oh, absolutely.
Copy !req
212. That sounds like a hoot and a half.
Copy !req
213. Great. It's by the giant foam tongue.
Copy !req
214. Just make a left at the guy in
the phone booth full of Jell-O.
Copy !req
215. If you hit the Men's Diaper
Brigade you've gone too far.
Copy !req
216. - See you there.
- Okay.
Copy !req
217. What's this?
Copy !req
218. The food's all green.
Copy !req
219. I added a little food color.
Copy !req
220. It's artistic.
Copy !req
221. I'm being artistic.
Copy !req
222. Mom's right.
Copy !req
223. I always thought art was just stupid paintings
of old dead guys in drag, but I was wrong.
Copy !req
224. Art can be doing something,
or even undoing something.
Copy !req
225. Like when I blew up the Muller's mailbox,
that was art, and I didn't even know it.
Copy !req
226. Green eggs and toast.
I do not like green eggs and toast.
Copy !req
227. Oh, for God's sake, Hal, stretch a little.
Copy !req
228. We're on vacation.
Copy !req
229. Vacation?
Copy !req
230. Which part of this is vacation?
Copy !req
231. Armor-Alling the tires for six hours,
or scraping the dead bugs out of
the grill with a toothbrush?
Copy !req
232. Why do they have to play
Frisbee so close to the RV?
Copy !req
233. Can't they have fun with that thing
without constantly throwing it around?
Copy !req
234. And where's Malcolm?
Copy !req
235. Did he even come home last night?
Copy !req
236. I gotta tell you, Lois, I really
don't think I like this place.
Copy !req
237. I think I love this place.
Copy !req
238. No, I'm sure I do.
Copy !req
239. Good morning.
Copy !req
240. Did you know... you are the most
incredible woman who ever lived?
Copy !req
241. Well, I knew I was in the top three.
But I guess your vote clinches it.
Copy !req
242. So, are we going to spend the day together?
Copy !req
243. I thought we could go check
out the Circle of Infinity...
Copy !req
244. Oh, I have a ton of re-birthing
ceremonies to do today.
Copy !req
245. But we can get together later.
How about that?
Copy !req
246. Sure, that sounds great.
Copy !req
247. What's the matter?
Copy !req
248. Nothing.
Copy !req
249. I'm happy.
Copy !req
250. Really, really happy.
Copy !req
251. No, there's something the matter,
but I just can't pin it down.
Copy !req
252. Nothing's wrong.
Copy !req
253. You go do your re-birthing whatevers,
and we'll get together later.
Copy !req
254. Contempt. That's it.
Copy !req
255. What are you talking about?
Copy !req
256. You have contempt for me, and for what I do.
Copy !req
257. No, no, not at all.
Copy !req
258. I should really just keep my mouth
shut for the next five seconds.
Copy !req
259. Four, three...
Copy !req
260. I mean, it is a pretty silly ritual, but
I guess I don't see any real harm in it.
Copy !req
261. You know, I have a lot to do today
and I think you should probably go.
Copy !req
262. - No...
- Good-bye, Malcolm.
Copy !req
263. This guy's really captured something here.
Copy !req
264. This piece is as vicious as it is funny.
Copy !req
265. What are you looking at?
Copy !req
266. Haven't you ever seen a man sweep
his lawn with a broom before?
Copy !req
267. Okay, that's enough. I've had it.
Copy !req
268. Go on, get out of here, you punks.
Copy !req
269. What the hell is wrong with you people?
Copy !req
270. Doesn't anybody have respect
for personal property anymore?
Copy !req
271. You can think about that for a few
days until I give this back to you.
Copy !req
272. I bet orphanages don't take family trips.
Copy !req
273. Or kids raised by animals.
Copy !req
274. How come they get all the breaks?
Copy !req
275. Okay, Lois, you can open your eyes now.
Copy !req
276. Oh, my gosh.
Copy !req
277. This is fantastic.
Copy !req
278. Oh... I wish there was a JC Penney
nearby. I'd love to get wallets of this.
Copy !req
279. Who's stupid idea was it
to come here, anyway?
Copy !req
280. I'm with you, Malcolm.
Copy !req
281. We don't belong here.
Copy !req
282. This place is full of freaks and weirdoes.
Copy !req
283. And now your mother and Jamie are out
there with them, doing God knows what.
Copy !req
284. You're going to be okay, Malcolm,
because you are just like me.
Copy !req
285. - I am?
- Well, sure.
Copy !req
286. They say we're stubborn, they say
we're closed-minded, but I say there's
Copy !req
287. nothing closed-minded about shunning ideas
that make you scared and uncomfortable.
Copy !req
288. Yeah.
Copy !req
289. And who cares if they
say we're afraid of life?
Copy !req
290. Life is scary.
Copy !req
291. Life is things eating things.
Copy !req
292. I say let everyone out there
go ahead and eat each other.
Copy !req
293. You and I we're gonna be in
here together, safe and sound.
Copy !req
294. I've been a total idiot.
Copy !req
295. I've got to get over myself.
Copy !req
296. Where are you going?
Copy !req
297. Don't walk away from me when
I'm talking to you, young man!
Copy !req
298. Get... off... my... property!
Copy !req
299. What? What did I do?
Copy !req
300. - Come with us.
- Wait. I want my lawyer.
Copy !req
301. He's the naked guy in the buffalo head.
Copy !req
302. It's okay, Reese, you're not in any trouble.
Copy !req
303. We want you to be the torchbearer
for the big Burning Man ceremony.
Copy !req
304. - You do?
- Absolutely.
Copy !req
305. I can't think of anyone who has
embraced and embodied the spirit
of the festival more than you have.
Copy !req
306. Really?
Copy !req
307. Wow.
Copy !req
308. Hey, don't say anything to my lawyer, okay?
Copy !req
309. I don't want to have to
give him a piece of this.
Copy !req
310. Open yourselves to the
energy of re-birthing.
Copy !req
311. I can do this.
Copy !req
312. I can be open-minded.
Copy !req
313. So it's a little weird.
Copy !req
314. Most rituals are a little weird, right?
Copy !req
315. He really needs a fresh start.
Copy !req
316. We made a lot of mistakes his first two days.
Copy !req
317. Okay, so it's totally insane.
Copy !req
318. I don't care, I'm doing it.
Copy !req
319. I got to tell you, man,
you've been fantastic.
Copy !req
320. Thanks.
Copy !req
321. What's this for?
Copy !req
322. What's it for? It's to set him on fire.
Copy !req
323. What?
Copy !req
324. That's how we end Burning Man,
man, by burning the man.
Copy !req
325. But it can't end.
Copy !req
326. I don't want it to.
Copy !req
327. For my first time in my life
I've been real, like I belong.
Copy !req
328. We've all been there, man.
But it still has to end.
Copy !req
329. But why?
Copy !req
330. That's just the way it is.
Copy !req
331. Look, it's cool if you don't want to...
Copy !req
332. Get back!
Copy !req
333. Everyone just stay back!
No one's burning Burning Man!
Copy !req
334. Malcolm?
Copy !req
335. What are you doing here?
Copy !req
336. I did it. I actually did it.
Copy !req
337. You re-birthed yourself...
Copy !req
338. - For me?
- No.
Copy !req
339. Well, yeah, originally, but
something happened in there.
Copy !req
340. I mean, I was able to open my mind and be
accepting of something I didn't believe in.
Copy !req
341. I've never been able to do that before.
Copy !req
342. It's amazing, I actually
feel like I've been reborn.
Copy !req
343. It feels fantastic.
Copy !req
344. And it's all thanks to you.
Copy !req
345. Oh, Malcolm.
Copy !req
346. We can never see each other again.
Copy !req
347. - What?
- This can never work.
Copy !req
348. You're just way to manuable.
Copy !req
349. The condescending cynic,
I could deal with, but this...
Copy !req
350. I don't want you doing things just
because I want you to do them.
Copy !req
351. Then I won't. If that's what you want.
Copy !req
352. Crap.
Copy !req
353. I'm sorry, Malcolm.
