Malcolm in the Middle Wiki

Cadet Stanley is a cadet at Marlin Academy and Francis' friend and informal bodyguard during the first season. Cadet Stanley is shown to have a hardcore appreciation for the military lifestyle. He was doing pull ups whilst Francis held on to him to add extra weight. Because of this extreme exercise, it can be implied he is very tough. Stanley is capable of injuring Francis while only using his thumb. In "Rollerskates" When the majority of the school leaves on an outdoor survival trip, Stanley claims he believes in the trip and threatens to break Francis' clavicles if he does not attend. Later, when Cadets are showing off their survival skills based on how little equipment they are bringing, Stanley shows up in the room completely naked except for the camouflage paint all over his body. After Francis fakes a back injury Stanley is so disappointed in Francis that he ends their friendship. Stanley disappears after this episode and is never seen again. It's possible that he might have graduated from Marlin Academy after Season 1.
