Various episodes:

Bonnie Brindle: No na na no no no!

Joan Lawson: That makes sense.

From the first-season episode, “Sibling Rivalry”:

Jamie, then later in the episode, Vicki: Be careful. Mom’s chili can burn a hole in your shirt.

From the second-season episode, “Victor/Vicki-Toria,” specifically in the scene on the baseball diamond wherein Ted hurts himself in an attempt to throw a fastball à la Fernando Valenzuela:

Jamie: Dad! Are you okay?
Ted: I think I threw something out.
Vicki (not in monotone): You look mah-velous dah-ling, really. Simply mah-velous.
Joan (rushing over): Ted, what happened?
Ted: I think I pulled a muscle.
Joan: Where?
Ted: Everywhere. Even my hair hurts.
