S1 • E1
Father Bob and mother Carol Chase rather miss the time when their quintuplets were small, cute and made them happy and popular. When it gets a bit too much, dad buys tickets to a Springsteen concert just for the two of them, but underestimates the effect of spiced brownies he cheerfully accepts there. Since ma's mindless meddling with a party only the eldest boy Parker and girl where invited for at Brooke's place, while her rule says one, all or none of the five siblings, results in it being canceled as it was never parentally authorized, which makes the 'quints' the least popular kids in school, they decide to interrupt their usual bickering and throw a (forbidden) party at the Chase house instead while the oldies are out, where 'baby brother' Patton expects to score his first female conquest...
S1 • E2
The Chase family is in state of emergency when Penny gets the flue, so she's quarantined in the basement because last time it went around thrice ('quintuplets contagious' contracts to the title). She looks at it from the bright side, having 'her own room', but then her stupid sister Paige follows, who is so addicted to gossip she pays anything for listener's time- in time that affliction also proves contagious. Pierce is so weird anyway that nobody can tell if he's affected by anything- now he wears PJs because he gets his best ideas in bed, mixes maths with English and watches TV without turning it on 'just as if he had his own reality TV show'. Mother breaks dad's rules by visiting them, so he locks her up too; at first she kindly tends to the kids, then gets sick herself and spiteful. The other boys don't want it to get known, but Parker is next struck down and sequestered. When the younger boys follow, dad finally has the house to him alone and forgets all about his urgent business.
S1 • E3
The quintuplets' high school team, the Coogars, holds auditions. As always Parker aces his athletic star spot, Pearce gets to be the team mascot, but Paige is a wreck: stinking at cheer-leading isn't good enough to become a Cougerette just because she looks good! At first dad Bob feels a bit sick when he hears her spot has been taken by his youngest Patton, who simply wouldn't just roll over when failing team selection -as the shortest player ever that was always a long shot- but seconds ex-cheer-leading mother Carol's enthusiasm when he learns there are even scholarships for superior cheerleaders. Parker doesn't have the heart to tell his baby-brother his real motivation, hot Haley, never even looks at a non-jock, but to Parker's surprise she does notice who holds her up with her firm thighs firmly pressed against his neck. Unfortunately, and even pushy Patton can only tell dad so after throwing ma out, there's a biological way to tell he notices her noticing him: his pole promptly stands to attention because of chick attention! Dad dreads putting it to words, but does his duty: if nothing else helps, don't look like a jerk but jerk off. The technique works, and even makes Haley pay him more attention then his studly big brother who generously stands by, but only if applied timely, which proves painfully difficult, so when the gents are closed for janitor jobs, finding the little monkey in his locker to spank his monkey doesn't exactly do wonders for poor perplex Parker's performance either, and then there still is the human pyramid, with the lightweight dwarf on top ...

Dad Bob won a cell phone at work; the kids all want one since ages, but ma insists on the hated rule: when something can't benefit all five, none get it; Parker presses the point that only denies all of them all kinds of things, so pa tries an alternative: a week-long contest who scores most points by doing chores. Parker turns the idea down as degrading, but the others are too eager: Patton needs it to get girls, preselected on shaky boyfriend-relationships, on the rebound; Paige craves anything to yap and all her friends have on-she even carries a fake to save face; Penny just wants to prevent Paige getting one; Pierce claims it would save from isolation his Mongolian Internet-pen pall and his entire village. Pa abuses his judging power to turn the kids into abject slaves, to ma's disgust, although she enjoys the spare time to takes a course- erotic pole dancing! After his week of bliss at the quints' expense, pa hopes to prolong his heaven and their hell by calling a four-way tie, but now they all turn to Parker, who inspires a total chores-strike until they all get cell phones, and it really hurts. Now the parents try every trick to divide them, pretending Patton or Pierce made a private deal with them, and when that fails tell Parker he can decide who gets the only phone...

Parker refuses to do a car commercial because of his Greenpeace-minded girlfriend, so Paige's brainless boyfriend Tyler pretends to be Parker.
