Plot summary
When Lois catches the boys vandalizing a billboard for a strip club, Malcolm spins the vandalism into a women's rights protest, which sparks a colossal media circus. After Hal grants a TV interview, a woman from his past turns up at the faux protest to demand that he repay a loan from years earlier. Reese falls asleep and dreams of the stripper in giant form telling him she is not real; inspired, he wakes up to give an impassioned speech about the objectification of women, while Lois tries to find a way to get the boys down without creating a wrath in front of the media. Eventually, Lois lies to the press that Dewey has a serious medical condition, and the police make them come down.
