When Kevin is talking to Michelle Turner at the cafe, he says "Well, I've got everything I need," but his lips aren't moving.
Location: The location is suppose to be Arcadia, but they neglected details of where they shoot the episodes. In the beginning, Grace and Joan walking down the alley, the Metro Train and a Long Beach Transit (California) bus rolls by behind them. Second, Joan and Casper talking at the park and a Long Beach Transit bus with it's name clearly seen on the side drives by behind them.
Joan: If I was a Viking, they'd put me on the flaming raft and send me out to sea.
Grace: You did the history reading!
Joan: That's how desperate I am.
Joan: Ask Romeo.
Will: "Romeo?"
Luke: It's a crude attempt at irony. Ask me what?
Mascot God: I asked you to jump. All you've done so far is fall. Go back and jump, Joan.
Grace: Why are we stopping? We should be fleeing in horror. It's bad enough we had to come all the way downtown to the library to research Viking footwear.
Joan: I kinda like this song…
Joan: One good thing about Mom's new job – neverending junk food.
Joan: Casper, Casper, why you buggin', Snow White wants to see you jumpin'.
Helen: I'm going to keep on pushing you (Adam) because, let's be honest, that turtle… crap on a stick.
Helen: What happened?
Will: I can't really say.
Joan: How come he can get away with that?
Helen: Because he's confused – you're lying.
Joan: Well, you're also teacher, and you're a cop. My life would be a lot easier if you were just normal loser parents.
Grace: (about Adam) He's not that into her (Iris). Trust me, he's hot for someone else.
Joan: Who?
Grace: Your mom. Sorry, dude.
Luke: You taught Kevin stuff and he's smart. Basically.
Joan: (to Luke) Give it a rest, horn-dog!
Kevin: (to Rebecca) I felt like a regular 19 year old kid again. I never thought I'd feel like that.
Joan: (to Grace) A? Isn't that just wrong?
Grace: (to Casper) This is Friedman. You can step on him, it's allowed.
Joan: Did you know he (Luke) has a girlfriend?
Will: Luke?
Grace: Rove and Iris are perfect for each other. They'll probably have a houseful of emotionally damaged babies by senior year.
Joan: (to Mascot God) Bite me, big bird.
Iris: (about Adam) A is so talented.
Joan: A? You're calling him A?
Pizza Delivery God: (After delivering Joan a pizza) No tip? I got it here in under thirty minutes.
Joan: Oh, like that's really hard for you?!
Street Guitarist God: (singing show theme off-key) Just a stranger on the bus…
Joan: Grace was right. You do suck.
Street Guitarist God: (singing badly) I said yeah…
Joan: (interrupting) That was really humiliating. God should know how to carry a tune.
Grace: Look at my butt one more time, Friedman, I dare you!
Joan: Mom's working late again. Can we order pizza?
Will: Already on its way.
Joan, Luke, Will: Extra garlic.
Michelle: You're not what I expected.
Kevin: You thought I'd be taller, right.
Luke: Dad, when you get your gun back, will you take me down to the shooting range?
Will: You want to learn how to shoot?
Luke: Ballistics is Applied Physics and… you know… I like blowing stuff up.
Will: Sure. Me too.
Coach Carol Keady: (after Friedman gets knocked down with a medicine ball) No lying down, Mr. Friedman.
Luke: You've got the world's largest blind spot, you know that? One minute, you discern an oblique pattern that's invisible to mere mortals, the next, you can't even see a conclusive certainty that's staring you in the face.
Will: I have no idea what you just said.
Luke: You always say I get my brain from Mom. That's not true, I get it from you.
Will: Then why didn't I understand what you said?
Joan: Before you launch into the embarrassing lecture on the health benefits of garlic, this is my friend Casper and she doesn't care.
Will: (to Casper) Nice to meet you. It is a natural antibiotic.
Casper: It also lowers blood pressure.
Will: I love this kid.
Coach Carol Keady: Upper body strength. It's the key to fitness and dating.
