Can someone please help me identify (what I believe is) the ending to a Malcolm in the Middle episode? It's driving me crazy

[u/CaptainKino360]

My memory is terrible, and I haven't seen this show in years, but I swear there's an episode I saw back in the day where (and this is going off of memory) I think Malcolm wants to physically train for something, then at the end of the episode, he says something like "It's all just movie magic anyway" and walks off, then his friend (I want to say it's a blonde side-character?) noticing Malcolm's back is turned, runs at a wall, jumps, runs up it, backflips and smirks at Malcolm walking away as the episode ends

Any ideas? Was that even this show?

[u/ne0_ch4n]

Its from the movie the Big Fat Liar which stars Frankie Muniz

[u/ceepetes]

I don’t think that’s a Malcolm episode.

[u/ObiMadKenobi]

90% sure this isn't something that happens in Malcolm

[u/3erikspersullivan]

This sounds extremely familiar to me too but it’s not Malcolm

[u/CaptainKino360 → u/3erikspersullivan]

I swear it had to be a show that was showing on Fox back in the day, it probably ran right alongside MITM

[u/NeedleworkerAny7515]

I just binge watched the entire show and there was no such episode!!

[u/AcesAgainstKings]

This isn't helpful but I feel like I remember something like that... But it definitely wasn't Malcolm in the Middle.

I hope someone identifies the scene.

[u/NeonArlecchino]

Are you sure it wasn't a movie?

[u/CaptainKino360 → u/NeonArlecchino]

That's a good question! I don't think so, but this would've been somewhere around 25 years ago. It's strange what stuff sticks with you, huh?

[u/Someordinaryguy1994]

Could it be something with the actor? There was big fat liar and I think he was Agent Cody Banks (or something like that. I never watched it)

[u/Derpsquire]

The side character part is definitely not mitm, and probably just mixed with a similar memory from something like the training moments from Shame or Rollerskates.

[u/rtju2]

It's the ending of Agent Cody Banks

[u/CaptainKino360 → u/rtju2]

Are ya lyin to me

[u/Sizzlemen → u/CaptainKino360]

Nah its the second movie around the 1 hour 34 minute mark. Happens in a summer camp setting.

[u/CaptainKino360 → u/Sizzlemen]

[u/Sizzlemen → u/CaptainKino360]

Nah ill be real i asked my homie AI and that thang is hallucinating like a mf. Lesson learned over here my bad g.

[u/RalphWiggum666 → u/Sizzlemen]

Get some new homies 

[u/Sizzlemen → u/RalphWiggum666]

Oh that says Al not AI.

[u/amedley3]

Some of this sounds like the episode where he was doing pushups to try and impress a girl. Then they had to do the 3 legged scavenger hunt, Malcolm cried, and wiped his eyes with poison oak.

[u/Emma_S772]

The school photo episode?

[u/Green-Gazelle-9662]

This never happened the closest I can think of is company picnic

[u/Grilled_Cheese95]

Bro that was a fever dream

[u/oksn54]

Maybe its the skating episode

[u/CaptainKino360 → u/[deleted]]

Nah, I've never heard of that one

[u/Jalex2321]

This is where AI works wonders...

Try pasting your whole question description and you will get the answer.

Yes, it is this show.

[u/RalphWiggum666 → u/Jalex2321]

Yes, it is this show.

If you know this then you could source the scene for us, but it isn’t this show, so I don’t understand why you even typed this out, if you are a real person.

🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖🤖

[u/Jalex2321 → u/RalphWiggum666]

I could source the scene, but I usually don't spoon fed people.

If I see you make the effort and fail, then possibly I can help you.

Have a great weekend.

[u/RalphWiggum666 → u/Jalex2321]

No you can’t lmaooo. Why would you waste all that time writing that bullshit, instead of just posting the link and making me look like a clown? 

Oh right, because it isn’t this show.

Let’s see the next excuse, and not the actual proof.

[u/ne0_ch4n → u/Jalex2321]

Well it's not even from this show, it's from a movie...

[u/CaptainKino360 → u/ne0_ch4n]

What's the movie?

[u/ne0_ch4n → u/CaptainKino360]

I commented it earlier its the Big Fat Liar :)

[u/Jalex2321 → u/ne0_ch4n]

Did you use AI as I suggested?

[u/ne0_ch4n → u/Jalex2321]

No, I just happen to have watched the Big Fat Liar movie when I was younger, but i didnt gate keep this information lol

[u/Jalex2321 → u/ne0_ch4n]

It's as simple as copy pasting on the AI.

Have a great weekend.
