He doesn’t think about the consequences of his actions. Reese is the idiot of the family and he knows it. A despicable delinquent and proud of it, Reese isn’t afraid to do whatever springs to mind at the drop of a hat regardless of how bad an idea it is and the consequences he will receive from his mother, Lois, something which he credits to the crazy voice he and all his brothers share. Though his grades don’t show it, Reese is just as much a genius as his two younger brothers. He purposely got a perfect zero on every one of his final school exams, a feat which is just as difficult to accomplish as a perfect one hundred. However, in Dewey’s Special Class, Reese, realizing that both Malcolm and Dewey are geniuses, decides to find out what kind of a genius he is. At the end of the episode, he says to Dewey, “I finally figured out what kind of genius I am.

Reese has extremely little to no empathy, with virtually no sense of right and wrong and basically enjoys doing bad things for the fun of it, despite the trouble he gets into. When it was first shown he had a talent for culinary and entered a contest, he was clearly overjoyed and enjoyed his cooking talents. But despite being a clear winner, he joyfully sabotaged all the other contestants’ dishes. When Reese was younger, he and his brothers performed the worst act they ever did. Reese got bad results on his report card.

Both Malcolm and Dewey got bad results too. Malcolm and Dewey helped Reese to create fake forms from the doctor saying that Lois had cancer. Lois was so worried about her cancer that she didn’t care about the report cards. When he was 15, Reese took driving lessons.
